Movie Quote!! & My nightmare of a house!!

These very becoming pictures would be of the ceiling in my new kitchen after the refreshing rain that we received. Yes, it appears that my roof leaks and after much inspection needs to be completely replaced! So, now we are officially OVER, I repeat OVER budget!! One of the down sides of blogging is that you can't see the actual tears that I am shedding right at this moment! Trust me however, I was feeling pretty proud of myself for keeping this kitchen within budget and now I can just throw all my hard work to the dogs because we are going to be paying OFF this kitchen for the next 6 months.

Anyway, please feel free to take a moment of silence at this time, say a prayer, find your zen, or *57 the roofing gods whatever you must to keep my bid on the new roof under $15,000. That would be a great help to me. Oh, and also ask that it not RAIN for the next week too, that would also be helpful. Thank you all.

Now, on to something a little more fun. The movie quote. I have to say I am surprised that more of you didn't know She's The Man. It is a great movie and I challenge you all to go out and rent it and watch it this week and tell me how much you loved this movie. I will still come to my own blog and just watch the trailer and laugh. Amanda Bynes is sooo funny, she is someone that I think deserves her fame. You know there are so many famous people that don't deserve his/her fame in my opinion. Here are a few that I don't think deserve fame:

1. O.J. Simpson (maybe he deserved it for being an athlete, but NOT for killing his wife!)
2. Richard Simmons (So you lost a lot of weight, great, but if you can't find pants or a haircut in 25 years you don't deserve fame in my opinion!)
3. Paris Hilton (Just because your daddy is rich you shouldn't have fans, I never did)
4. Kevin Federline (There is absolutely nothing worth being famous about this guy and his wife does deserve to be famous, but is pushing it.)

These are just a few examples, because if you know me I could go on and on forever, like honestly why was Molly Ringwald ever cast in a movie I will never know, but back to what you are all waiting for which is this weeks quote. Oh, wait...if you have anyone that you would like to add to the list please do so, I love and obsess about famous people therefore, I love to gossip. So, if you want to tell me why someone should NOT be famous please join in on the rant, I would love to hear!!

Okay, this weeks quote. I hope you are all a little better at this one.

What color is my tongue, what color is it?"

"It's red, I dunno- red."

"Red red or tongue red?"

"Razzle red."

She's the man Movie Trailer

Watch the entire trailer to see the movie quote! It is there at the end!

Movie Quote!!

Last week's was too easy also, so let's see if you all can get this one. This is one that I quote often, but I don't say what it is from. Good luck and remember, NO CHEATING!!

"I've got a life time of knowledge."

The Golf Widow

I have been "happily" married and I repeat "happily" married for almost 14 years. I believe the reason for my happiness is because my husband (okay and me too sometimes) lives a pretty pampered life. Most of you are aware of the fact that my husband is out of town on a somewhat regular basis (that is NOT why I am happy). He enjoys camping, backpacking, mountain biking and other sundries things. Well, this weekend my husband is in Oregon on a golf trip. Yes, I am sure many of you are wondering how Ryan could play any more golf, but yes, it is true. My happiness I have found stems from the fact that he always seems to return from his trips in a much better mood then when he left and therefore life is good. My mood however sometimes could use a little boost... let me tell you a little about my day as a golf widow left to care for the dear children all on my own.

6:30- day begins running to the bathroom because it appears Kate's stomach flu has been kindly given to dear mom (of course while dad is gone, never a day off!)

7:30- must get uniform out of dryer (load done at 12:30 pm when son reminded me it needed to be clean for the game) because Marshall is being picked up in 10 minutes for his game.

8:30- still running to the bathroom, must shower get Kate ready and get her to her soccer game, meeting NaNa at game.

10:00- meet NaNa at corner to show her where the game is and rush Kate to game (hoping there is a bathroom)

10:45- get a surprise call from mother-in-law that she is at my house, that looks like I feel, and wants me to meet her there and show her the living hell that I live in. Oh, with a smile on my face. Can't disappoint the mother-in-law!!

11:30- stop at Maverick for a Diet Coke, there is no way I will make it through the day without one.

11:32- spill my Diet Coke down the front of myself, while wearing all white!!! Buy treats for Kate because need to rush to ALPINE to get Marsahll from his baseball game.

11:40- Kate spills all her candy in the car. (I don't own a Mom car, I own a sweet ass Audi!)I hear "oopps, sorry mom."

11:41- I start laughing hysterically because it isn't even noon and my life sucks, I have Diet Coke down the front of me, I need a bathroom to safe my life, and my husband is off playing GOLF and the only thing that I can think to do is laugh.


It made me think of this one time I was in the car with Marshall and he was giving me smack...like always. I finally said to him, "Marshall, you should be nice to me, I went through the valley of the shadow of death for you. You have no idea. I couldn't even walk for like a week after I had you." You know what that kid said to me. He said, "You couldn't walk for a week, I couldn't walk for like a year!"

Life is hard and funny all at the same time. You are all probably reading this thinking that my day was probably not that bad, but to me it sucked. But, here are some adorable pictures of my kids at their games. So, in the end it is always worth it. And if my husband finds a computer and looks at my blog I have only one thing to say, "You better be having fun!"

Movie Quote!!

Okay, it is a new week and therefore time for a new Movie Quote!! I do have to say that Katie is pretty good at this even though she cheated last week. No cheating this week Katie!! No looking it up on the Internet. Either you know it or you don't. And Lori can't guess because I already told her what movie it was from. So good luck to you all. Here it is.

"What kind of name is Poon?"

"Comanche Indian"

The Money Pit

Okay, so here are some new pictures of my living hell and I thought that I would give you all a website that you can go to, so that you can see my new light fixtures!! I love them. I also was going to give you a website so you can see the furniture that I bought, but Campo doesn't have one that I could find. Sorry. Anyway, go link above named LIGHTS,LIGHTS,LIGHTS and in the search box put F1088-33 and F1081-33. Oh, and the beautiful front door that I have a picture of will be painted Black. Just so you all know that it doesn't stay that nasty color with white trim.

Just as a side note...you can't really tell but now I no longer can go down my stairs so I am forced to go in between the 2x4's of a missing wall to get to another set of stairs and go down those stairs all without lights because now none of the house has any lights. Ryan saw a RAT, yes a RAT outside our door yesterday and our cat has been going crazy under the stairwell as of late, so it appears we have stirred up a family of mice and rats that need to be taken care of. Also, I can't go anywhere in my house without sheet rock, plaster or nails following behind me. Shoes are required!!! This would be why I call it my living Hell!! Pardon my French. I am sure that I will love it when it is all done, but for now, I would love to stay in a La Quinta because I am already eating at Denny's!!

Movie Quote!!

Okay, Okay, Amber gave me a movie quote in the comment section of my "Am I a Crazy Old Lady" post. Her movie quote was, "You're doing it wrong!" I have to admit I thought long and hard about this one. This was a good one because it sounded so familiar and I could see the face of the woman who said it but I couldn't place the name of the movie. But then I thought, "220, 221 whatever it takes!" I bet you didn't remember that line from MR. MOM!!

So, here is my movie quote for the week.

"No, he is an ordinary person, I could kill an ordinary person, I could kill a hundred ordinary people."

Good Luck to you all, especially you Katie!!

Am I A Crazy Old Lady?

So, I had this lady come by my house today to look at some furniture that I am selling and a thought crossed my mind...am I going to grow up to be that crazy old lady? I am being totally serious. This lady was sweet as pie, but couldn't stop talking. Sound familiar to anyone. I often think to myself that, sure my obsessive talking was cute when I was little and then it grew to be mildly entertaining as an adult, but when I get old, I mean old, am I going to be the crazy old lady that you try to shut up and pat on the shoulder and give Oveltene or Postum to in hopes that the drink will quite me for even a minute or two, or even better, maybe I will dose off to sleep, you know like old people tend to do. I am feeling your pain already! I don't want you all to hate to be around me..maybe it is difficult already. However, my thoughts are that it gets more and more difficult as I get older, because less interesting things happen to me as I get older and I am being forced to repeat myself. Also, I may not even know that I am repeating myself!! I want to help you all so that you don't have to go through what I went through this afternoon. If (when I am old, not now) you are bored with what I am saying simply say, "Emily, that is so great can I interest you in _____"

Here are somethings to fill in the blanks:

*a good movie

*chocolates

*diamonds

*new cloths

*new shoes

*a famous movie star (I hesitate to name one only because whom ever I name now would totally be old by the time this list is useful and therefore not worthy of mentioning.)

*a new house

*diet coke

*a massage

*a pedicure

*a fabulous dinner

*an evening with Ryan that doesn't include sports

The list goes on, but I am sure that you get the idea. I apologize up front for my future crazy old lady state. I am sure I will turn into one and for those of you that last and continue to be my friends I applaud you. Thank you for sticking with me through all those years. I love you!!
