My weirdisms

I should call this installment #1 'cause I am sure that there will be another . . . I have been thinking about these lately

like this morning when I make my bed as much as possible while still laying in it. (I wonder if this habit will stop after I have the baby - or if it's going to stick)

I decide where I want to eat according to the coupons I have OR the rolls they serve :) (AKA Texas Road House - course I always have a coupon for them too.

I always get a little mad at my poor hubby when he buys me gifts, because I am like OH, I had a coupon for that . . . Not mad at the gift, mad that I didn't know so I could give him the coupon. :)

I got to lazy to wear earrings a LONG time ago.

I love daisies. They stink - but they are fresh, happy and natural. I have a secret with Heavenly Father - every time I find or see a daisy somewhere - I pretend it is Him sending me an "I love you"

I hold on to things that I plan to use in my "basement home" retarded really.

I reorganize closets and things WAY too much. . . until I get it JUST right ;)

I have to get new glasses if I a switching drink of choice. ie I can't use a milk cup for a water cup.

I get a new wash rag out every time I do dishes. (so yeah 2 a day at least.)

I always get an ice water. Unless I have to pay for it anyways - then I choose pop because I hate paying for water!

Things I do to save money: coupons, our own business taxes, eat left overs and food that is questionable, have kid #2 with no epidural cause it was an extra $1,000.

My new fave thing to do is make dinner for the family and add up the cost and be proud because I spent less than 8 bucks.

I love totes and organizers.

Driving your car short distances isn't good for it so :

I ride my bike - sometimes even in a dress to choir - (nothing different than my mission) Unsure if this will keep up through the 120 degree heat down here though . . .

when I wash my van I actually put it in neutral and PUSH it back so that I don't have to start the engine.

I reuse cards. I HATE buying them. Making them cheap is ok. But $2 -3 bucks on a card? I would rather put 2 -3 bucks into your gift. (another thing I get urked at my hubby buying - and he always does :) I am like = just write me a note! :) poor guy.

I constantly long for the day Mia is old enough so that I can run those super fast store to store errands with out getting all the kids out of the car.

Those are some of my weirdisms I am sure that I have more. . . If YOU know any, feel free to add to my list.

Don't forget to Vote today!

Don't forget to vote today. While we still have the chance to vote for our own state.

Here are some toons for your viewing enjoyment. They are funny, but also sadly true.

Did you know?

Did you know that our government sent OVER 50 BILLION bucks to a greece bail out. Yeah you didn't get to vote on that one.

Did you know people are actually "betting" in this complex insurance thing, that greece will "default on the loan" and they will make money if they do?

Did you know that you should be voting by May 18th? (My fellow Queen Creek -ers)

Did you know that the government went over budget by 4 times of what was spent last quarter, and that they DOUBLE spent what they budgeted in a "worse case scenario".

Oh yeah, and all that money they took (Tarp) to "fix" the economy and create jobs - only 1/3 has been used. (The rest is being saved to do something "AMAZING" right before elections so that you will be fooled into voting OBama again.)

Just another little FYI the Climate Bill, which got a bad rap - got changed to the "Cap and Trade" which got figured to be the same thing - and has had its name now changed to the American Power Act. (Just so you don't get tricked by slick willy Obama and vote for it. In his own words by his plan "energy prices would necessarily skyrocket" I don't know about you but A. I can't afford that. and B. if a politician says sky rocket that really means WAY WORSE than sky rocket - trying to think of a word that may mean more. . . scary, not many come to mind which is just plain SCARY!

Did you know that Miho Kylan (Nick Tv Kid show) says that you aren't supposed to hit people? - Yes this is what my daughter informed me after I smacked her cute little face for mouthing off to me. hmmmmm.

What's up with that?

What is up with that? I make a note to myself to make a new post . . . post it a week later and it shows up in the MIDDLE of my posts? Stupid blog.

Well, if you would like a little McDonald family humor (esp the last part) then you can read three posts down "My moms prayers".

PS Why is it that I always look for the FRESH pieces of bread to make toast and I can just use the "not as soft ones?" kinda dumb huh. :)
