Neopets Cybunny Day

Hey there! Now what kind of bunny owner would I be if I didn't get a cybunny on Neopets. Well... I got one. hehehehe.

they only come around once a year so they are really hard to get. And people create too many (IMHO). But hey ... they didn't ask me. People are creating 20 at a time. What for I have NOOO idea but. Well actually I kind of do. It's just like sniping on ebay. You wait for that LAST second and when you get it ELATION! you really won. or in Neopet's case... you got something you can only get once a year now. Pretty cool, she's yellow and named JollyBugs, after my own Bugs bunny that I have :)

I also have two Eyries. One blue and one red. The red one I adopted well frankly cause I like Eyries and I couldn't get a Cybunny.

I'm working on getting a Packrat Avatar. Which means you have to have 1000 in your Safety Deposit Box and it's kinda hard to do but I'll get there eventually. LOL I'm already up to like 140. If I had known about the avie before... I probably would be halfway there by now. I've sold a bunch of stuff and well ... given away some and donated some so ... oh well. That's life. Ah the things you learn after the fact.

The cybunny boards are insane. Some of them get mad cause they can't get them. the ones that have so many are mad cause the ones that don't have any are mad. LOL It's too funny to watch the boards. I'm perfectly happy with my one cybunny JollyBugs!

birds and bird baths


Well I've found yet ANOTHER hobby to play with.

Birds. We fixed a bird bath two days ago. Yesterday I had it filled with water. It worked pretty good except that it's made in an old stump and doesn't hold water too well yet. :( We have decided we are going to get some cement and make the stump that we have level before trying to make a better bird bath. I took some pictures, I'll put them up tomorrow after Terry goes fishing.

We were supposed to go to Marion, IL to take him to the doc. Nothing big just normal stuff. But he wasn't feeling good so we didn't go.

I'm getting lots of birds in the bird bath now. I think it's HILARIOUS to watch them taking their bath. Once we get the nice one done it'll be bigger. This one isn't very big and it doesn't hold water very well. I'm pretty happy with it now but Terry isn't and honestly I think the ideas he has will work out great and it'll be REALLY pretty. Only one way to find out. We probably won't get it done for another week anyways.

Easter

Wow! The year is already moving faster than a speeding bullet. I can't believe how fast the time is passing. It's already April. In a short few days (April 14) my boyfriend and I will have been together 2 years. Wow.

Sunday will be Easter and I'm not quite ready for it yet. Everything piled up on us last week and I didn't have time for ANYTHING! It seemed like I was trying to get things together and then all of a sudden I ran out of time. Today (sometime) I've got to go and get Easter candy and eggs for my daughter at school. Not fun.

I'm trying to get an aquarium for my two little baby turtles. One of them decided he needed to crawl over my foot... so I stuck him in my pocket. The other ... well my stepson came in and gave it to me. So now I've got two lol

When Terry and I went fishing the other day ... this is one of the MANY pictures that I took of the lake. I thought this one was the best of the bunch don't you???

I also took some pictures of little ol me to show off LOL my face is a little sunburned between the walk that I just returned from and the time I spent on the lake in the sun. but hey ... I turned a couple heads when I took my walk this afternoon. LOL

vacation??? hahaha don't make me laugh

Well ... this week has been just SOOO much fun. We told everyone STAY AWAY. Don't call, don't come by don't bother us. Well.. that worked well the day I took Natalie to Illinois.

I took her up Saturday afternoon. Which meant that I didn't get home until about 11 p.m.

Sunday Terry went fishing without me. I walked around town and generally goofed off at home.

We were enjoying our time together Monday and knock knock knock. The oldest daughter was at the door. I said hey ... we said NO company. She said well I've got a message from a friend of Terry's. I said alright fine. So she came in to tell him the message and to find out if she could borrow some money. We didn't and don't have it of course. So she said ok I'll tell momma to bring the baby in. So ... they came in and stayed for a couple hours. They hadn't been gone more than 10 minutes when the oldest boy called. I picked up the phone and said we don't want to be bothered today. He said well I've got a flat tired. I said I don't care. He said well screw it and hung up on me. I was half kidding. I wouldn't leave the kids so they couldn't get to work. So I called him back. He needed a ride to work. Which meant spending an hour to pick him up and then take him to work.

Monday night I went to go get something to eat and got into a MAJOR hail storm. Was NOT fun for me. I put the truck into park, put on the flashers cause heaven forbid someone should come from behind me and hit me. Put my arms over my head and said ok just hurry up with the hail will ya. I called Terry on the phone scared to death and almost in tears. I went ahead and went to get something to eat since if I had turned around to go home I would have been running right back into it. NO THANKS!

So Tuesday of course we had to go take the truck into to have the damage estimated at almost 2400 bucks. We also have a 500 dollar deductible. I was supposed to take the oldest daughter to the store with me. Well when we got back from having the guy do the estimate for the hail damage the two oldest kids were here. The boy who had the flat tire the day before needed a ride to go get the tire and then to the truck to pick it up so he could go to work. Never mind that he was driving a truck when he got here. He said he didn't think it would make it to where he wanted to get the tire from. so ... the oldest daughter took him to get the tire and said she'd be right back. Two hours later she finally showed up. She was supposed to go to work so I said well I guess that means we won't get to go shopping huh? she said no I still need to go. So we went ahead and left and I took the estimate up to the insurance company to give them the estimate and hope they would give us the check. We had almost decided that we wouldn't have the truck fixed and just get the check and pay off some of the bills. Wrong again. They said oh well we'll have the guy fix it and have him send us the final bill and we'll pay him direct.

Wednesday we actually got to go fishing for a couple hours. We came home to the oldest daughter and his wife here. Yeah he's still married.

Today we were getting ready to go fishing and the youngest child called and said hey can I borrow 50 or 60 dollars so my husband can get home and back to work and home before he gets paid Friday night. :(

I don't understand. We told them ... don't call us this is our time for a break and yet they have been "needing us" more this week than any other time. Course Sunday I have to go get my daughter back from Illinois. Maybe then it'll slow down.

Whew. I'm tired of all the running around.
have a great day!

neopets

check this out! I got addicted to neopets a little over a week ago! I love em. there are games to play and little creatures you can have!



My creature looks like a crossbetween an Eagle and something else I'm not sure what. :) they've got some REALLY cute ones and some ugly ones and some ... I'm just not sure what they are. LOL

Have a great day and if you decide to join me. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

complaint of the day!

My daughter is on vacation this week and I wanted to go fishing but instead it looks like I'm going to be running all over the place trying to get the truck fixed. We got some HEAVY hail damage last night. It wouldn't have been so bad if I hadn't been IN the truck. That was NO FUN! It broke the bug shield, one of the windbreaker things on the back passenger door and the driver's door. I don't know what they call em but those little visor things. Broke the cooler that was in the back all to smithereens. it was NOT fun!

Today I visited with my boyfriend's daughter and his wife. Yeah I said wife. They are still married. I have the papers all drawn up. All he has to do is find a notary public to have them signed and then take them to the courthouse and have them filed. After 60 days it's all done. I'm not real worried about it. We aren't ready to jump into the marriage thing anyways.

Tomorrow he's supposed to go fishing with his best friend which means I won't get to go AGAIN! Wednesday, Thursday and Friday it's supposed to be bad weather! So ... i won't get to go fishing at all and it'll be back to ... I can't go cause my daughter will be coming home from school and he doesn't like to come back in just so I can get my daughter off the bus. Oh well typical of the way shit goes around here. he does what he wants and I get to sit at home and do nothing.
