Blog Prompt: One food you would never give up is...
Oh ONE? BOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Chicken. Fried, rotisseried, baked, Crock-pot'd, Alfredoed, stir-fried, grilled, bacon-sauteed, con-broccoli'd, you name it, I can eat the heck out of some chicken. Everyday. Never get tired of the stuff.
Maybe I should eat MORE chicken and less ice cream, and try to get a few pounds off.

Book Quiz. WT??
Found this Book quiz on Tink's blog. All I can say about what it said about me is.......What the HIZZY!!!!! lol....
You're Lolita!
by Vladimir Nabokov
Considered by most to be depraved and immoral, you are obsessed with
sex. What really tantalizes you is that which deviates from societal standards in every
way, though you admit that this probably isn't the best and you're not sure what causes
this desire. Nonetheless, you've done some pretty nefarious things in your life, and
probably gotten caught for them. The names have been changed, but the problems are real.
Please stay away from children.
Take the Book Quiz
at the Blue Pyramid.

Procrastination
Blog Prompt: What are you putting off right now?
Heh. The entry would be shorter if I said, what do I not put off! I am a procrastinator. I have a lot to take care of, that's no joke. Sometimes I make excuses for it, sometimes I'm nervous, sometimes I'm tired. Sometimes I'm lost, or torn, or my resources are thin.
I wish I could harness the power of PMS, put it in a bottle, and take a good dose of it when I need it. It might help me some. Those sour moods and that don't-run-over-me extra dose of strength, I find is hiding sometimes when I most need it.
Right now, I am putting off:
Something to do with my job. (My Mercy factor---for not wanting to give some people what they so deserve, even though they so deserve it. But, tomorrow is the big day.)
Something to do with my house. (Needing a little PMS factor here. I have a contractor to defend. This will hit next week with a VENGEANCE.)
Balancing my checkbook. (limited resources)
Mailing off a few bills (because I haven't balanced the checkbook this week)
(Here's that resource thing again)
Cleaning my room (yeah, I talk out of both sides of my mouth here. The kids can't leave to go out sometimes, not all the time, if there room is a pigsty!) This has something to do with tired.
Cutting my hair. This...this has something to do with something that I can put my finger on, and that something I can't put my finger on is something I'm not ready to let go of yet.
I go tomorrow to visit the hairdresser. A consultation, if you will. I wonder if I'll take the plunge and make the appointment. I wonder if I'll keep my courage and KEEP the appointment???

DSP Blog prompt: Name three people you last e-mailed, and why.
1. My sister, because she has a twisted sense of humor, so I sent her a good joke fitting her personality.
2. Steve's sister, sending her a good e-mail also befitting her personality.
3. At work I send about 20 e-mails a day so those are self explanatory and boring.

Relaxation
Blog Prompt: Aug 15 is National Relaxation Day. Tell what things you see, hear or do that relaxes you.
This is Wednesday's prompt. I'm late.
One very big thing is to eat and read, although, when I am super stressed like I have been this week, reading doesn't calm me much because the people in the books are always in trouble. This is the stuff of great fiction, no argumant about it, but I have to already be at a certain point of OK before I can even enjoy a good book or movie anymore.
I like a glass of wine in the evenings, sometimes, but I don't like the smell it leaves so I rarely even do that. I usualy end up going and brushing my teeth at least once after every glass. I should also state that I also can't stand the smell of alcohol on other people, either. That's a long story, not one for now.
Crocheting is relaxing. But, it is time consuming, so I usually don't crochet unless I have a specific project to complete.
Writing is relaxing. I know though, that I usually do not like what I write when I go back and read it, so my attempts at fiction are usually thrown away. This is a habit I've had all of my life, and now I wish I'd kept the diaries I'd made as a younger woman, so I could look back on them now.
I guess I find it very hard to relax!!! Today, anyway, when I need to be able to really bad. Nerves have been taut all week, for several reasons.
Probably the most relaxing thing of all for me is scrapbooking and trying to learn how to design. I can't hardly wait until I can get a copy of PSCS3 and really do some learning. I hate money being so tight.
I love to go to the lake and be near the water. The sound of water lapping on the banks is very relaxing.
I guess, given the burnout I am suffering and the nature of my job, NOT having to talk to people is relaxing!

Five Things Around My Computer
Hm. Well, right now I have two.
5 things around the desktop PC include:
A big stack of all kinds of computer paper
2 scanners, neither which will work properly
The bills
Miscellaneous software
Faery figurines and Steve's lava lamp
The laptop, which I cam currently on:
sofa
end table with lamp
blankets and pillow
coffee
small trash can
I'm not sure what this says about me.
5 things around Steve's computer:
desk organizer
flashlight
coffee cup
telephone
ashtray
5 things around the twin's computer:
Some software
a notebook
trash under the desk (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
Spongebob Squarepants mouse pad
pens and pencils
5 things around Kameron's computer:
dirty dishes
candy wrappers and trash everywhere
high school notes from girls
school binder
small red wicker basket with software and misc things in it
Let's face it, the oldest boy is a pig.
I think the fact I have listed five computers is more ......disturbing......than what's around them. Except for, maybe, the boy's dishes. One of Mom's rules: No eating at the PC......
