Mom's Out There

I have been fighting with our kitten for forever to get a picture in the pumpkin. But finally...after about a hundred shots I got it. So HAPPY HALLOWEEN everyone.

Don't forget to check out my Top 10 Scariest Cheesy Horror Movies....

And remember...save all the Reese's Cups for me... they are my favorite!

I saw this video earlier about 5 great things you can get at the dollar store. I know I live at the dollar store pretty much. Here are their 5 suggested things...

Cleaning supplies - Look for products like laundry detergent and liquid drain opener. You may not see name brands you recognize, but that’s ok. The Good Housekeeping Institute says most dollar store cleaning products have the same ingredients as name brands — although some may be slightly more diluted.

Gift wrap, tissue, ribbons, bows - You can save a pretty penny shopping for gift wrappings. In fact, you might find this stuff at up to 80% less.

Snack food - Check out potato chips, peanuts, chocolate and candy. Hey, if you’re heading for big dental bills, might as well save a buck or two on the causes.

Dollar store shampoo - Hair care experts say most shampoos will clean your hair just fine - there’s only minor differences in a brand’s ingredients and concentration.

Kitchen supplies - Spatulas… measuring cups… can openers… melon ballers… skewers for the grill: basically anything without a blade is a dollar store deal — that could save you up to 95%!

I also say that Scrapbooking supplies is another good one. You can find gems in there!!

I have been changing a lot of things around here...in my life I mean...so I thought I would for sure change the look of my blog. I thought it looked crappy for a long time! And now that I am drifting back to the personal I wanted something nice to look at. So bare with me while I fix up the sidebars.

Seriously...this is sooo funny I can't stop laughing. Why does it have to be so funnY? I read this blog every day. It's a great pick me up. Just ask my friend, ConfessingGirl, I always send her the funny ones!

I want to know who ever thought that video games would be a fun thing to bring into the house? Men and their video games piss me off...So Saints Row 2 is in our house...and can't be played around the kids. And besides if they got in the way we would all get yelled at. And just now...just now...is the swearing and throwing the remote at the tv. I HATE IT!

Why do they feel like they need to control everything...they get mad if the game is too easy and then they get mad when the game is easy. Really people...make up your mind...and leave me out of it. Thank goodness I have my laptop...or I would really go crazy!

Today my daughter showed me that things change. She made her first batch of cookies today that she made for school. I didn't go in the kitchen at all. She served them to me on a plate so I could taste them and then I looked to see how her clean up was. I was totally amazed! Kids grow up so fast. How can I turn on the brakes?

I think my arm looks amazing. I am so happy that it is finally done! And then times like today make me so mad. Does it look so horrible that people have to treat me differently? I went to pick a pack of smokes for my husband at the store. The lady looked me up and down. I was dressed up in a nice silk shirt and jeans and my makeup was done. I was just like any other person. You can see my other tattoos but of course they aren't as huge as that one. I was like whatever. Maybe she will smile and say that my arm is nice. I'm not used to having to have a conversation every time but I guess that's my own fault.

I asked her for two packs of smokes...she kinda puts her nose up at me and then asks for I.D. Now, you have to be 18 here to buy smokes so I was like in my head...you know I am over 18, I have tattoos all over the place. But I listen and get my license out. She checks it over...I am 33. So I think she has nothing to even worry about. She wouldn't give me back my license but says. We don't have that kind so I don't know what you want to do...I reach over take my license back and walk away.

Why couldn't she tell me that before she asked for my I.D.? Probably because she wanted to treat me differently. Honestly, tattoos are so mainstream now. And if I wore a long sleeved shirt and jeans no one would ever know. So why treat me that way then? It's a fish on my arm...it's not a naked woman...it's not guns...it's not a skeleton. But, even then...why do I deserve to get treated different because of my ink?

I found this site today...and all I want to do is play with it. How cute does my new cat look?? Spots was just hanging around. Make your own magazine at MagMyPic.
