All of my excuses!!

So I have been asked by several people to update my blog. Here are a few excuses why I have not found the time.....

* My internet has been down for a few weeks. Tyson move out so I think when he moved his desk he unplugged my modem for my home phone and the internet. The funny thing is we didnt even notice the home phone was out until the people at comcast asked if the phone was not working either. That was how we figured out it must be the modem was unplugged. (I think it is time to just get rid of the home phone altogether!)

*Every night it has been warm and not raining we have been doing yard work!! Yes believe it or not my lawn is edged and cut. The bushes are starting to be trimmed. Thank you so much Chad for making me do it!! If it was not for Chad I would still just be a lazy reality tv watcher. My yard is not perfect yet but is on its way!!! Maybe at some point I will even plant some flowers. But that would be alot so I better just get used to mowing the lawn!!!

*Ashly has been telling me how great the book Fablehaven is. She has gone to see the author twice and read all three books 2 or 3 times. Last Thursday (Chads TV night) I didnt have anything to do so I started reading the first one. I fell asleep Thursday night reading it and woke up Friday and read till I finished it. I started the 2nd one but I am only allowing myself one chapter a day!

*The other night Chad and I were watching TV and Ashly was in the shower. All of a sudden there was a sound of gushing water. We both sat up at saw there was a flow of water coming out of the light over my kitchen table. I ran upstairs and Ashly had just finished her shower and realized she had flooded the toiled before she got in. There was water everywhere. It was such a mess. So we mopped up all the water and used every towel in my house.

*I dont know if this is really and excuse but it sure made me laugh today so I will share it with all of you.... Ashly has had an ingrown toe nail for a few months. She never complains about it because she is so afraid of going to the doctor. Well on Sunday I was looking at her foot and her toe was so swollen an infected. She then proceeded to tell me it was under control and if she cut it out the redness would be gone in a few days. So she locked herself in the bathroom to cut it out. When she came out it still looked horrible. So I called the doctor and made her an appointment. I made it for Tuesday morning knowing she would be with her Dad so I would not have to take her. I decided not to tell her till we were on our way to her Dads Tuesday morning. Well of course Chad had to blow the surprise and told her Monday night that she was going to the Doctor. She cried for a while to him that she did not need surgery. He kept yelling at her it was not SURGERY that she would walk out of the doctors office and go home the same day. She insisted it was surgery and she refused to have any shots. Finally she got in the shower and decided to go to bed. I just went into her room and she was sitting on her bed looking sad. She had a notebook so I took the notebook and told her to go to bed everything would be fine. I turned the paper over and the DRAMA QUEEN had written a will on it. She listed all of her belongings and who I should give them too. On the top it had a little eulogy about her. She is wacko!!!! I really do not know where she comes from. Im just so glad all I have to do is drop her of at her Dads and go to work tomorrow! He can deal with her screaming and be humiliated!!! I will give him my camera so there will be pictures to come of the DRAMA QUEEN at the doctor!

Well there you have it the last few weeks of excuses why I have not had time to Blog!!! I will try to keep up on this but I am not making any promises!

Good excuses - whatever! You are turning into your father with all the yard work. Was Ashly going to leave me anything?

You only need to post a few sentences a day and not a whole novel. It takes way less time. We all know the only reason Chad did yard work is because the neighbors think he lives there.
