TOTALLY GEEKED!

I'm so sorry, NJN.

Somehow you must find a way to carry on!

I'm coming down with a cold. SIL showed up with a cold. DD started getting sick mid-week but I think she caught neighbors cold. Now I'm feeling something brewing in my body. What a way to come off vacation.

NJN, are you passing along a joke from "#disappointedinyoudawyne"therock"johnson" ?

I just found out that my long term boyfriend has been cheating on me with another woman.  Apparently she's pregnant now.  I think it was a trap set by her because she knew he actually loved me more!  #disappointedinyoudawyne"therock"johnson

 

 

Here are my ideas for their child's name

Gender-neutral names:

Pebble (obvious but solid)
Quartz
Agate
Shale
Silver
Jasper

Girls' names:

Garnet
Amethyst
Pearl
Rose Quartz
Sapphire (or really, any gem)

Boys' names:

Rocky (as a tribute to his dad's wrestler name, Rocky Johnson, not to Sly Stallone's famous character)
Boulder
Chip
Granite

 I like ruby. That's the fake name I use when ordering counter service and they ask for a name to call out.

---

 Tell the truth:

It's really your stripper name!

 Well, that's Ruby-Jane. Gotta sound wholesome. 

I broke out some cheap soap I bought awhile back from Michael's. I liked the little pumpkin-shaped dispenser. Much to my delight, it has a very light spiced pumpkin scent.

A hawk and an owl battled it out in the wee hours of the morning right outside my window. It sounded like children screaming. The dog got out of the covers and sat on the edge of the bed staring at the bedroom door. He fell back asleep about an hour later but stayed on the edge of the bed pointed towards the door. Not sure what he thought his 7 lb self was going to do...he barks and has no bite! He is a lover not a fighter.

Allergies are bothering me - nasal drip sucks.

Hope everyone else starts feeling better.

 My dog usually gets me up early to go out.  Not this morning.  I got up, got the coffee going, emptied the dishwasher all the while wondering when the dog was coming down to go out.  When he finally did come down, I took him out and spotted the turkeys that roam my 'hood.  They were a few houses away. Sonny apparently had been watching them out the window, he is intimidated by them, as he should be.  He waited for them to be a good safe distance away before he would go out.  LOL Those turkeys are huge!

Mmm turkey. You people are making me hungry. DH is still sleeping and he is the breakfast maker around here.

Fall weather is coming. We are having highs in the mid-upper 70s and lows in the 50s. Windows will be opened.

Busy busy day. I need to get ahead of my homework.

Housework needs to be done too since I am not home during the week anymore. Floors need to be mopped and laundry needs to be finished. I also need to freeze up the sauce I made yesterday with tomatoes from the garden.

We have wild turkeys too!

You ever wonder what one of them would taste like will dressing and giblets gravy?

---

Probably pretty "gamey", since they are wild critters. Nothing like the farm-raised, genetically engineered domestic turkeys we are used to. 

 

---

 Yeah. Much better.

Wild turkey is much better than the freezer turkeys.

So....#2 lost his first tooth today. What's the going rate?

 Glad to hear he is doing better.

Regular tooth $1

Molar $2

Dentist had to pull it then it gets $5

 Think long and hard because what the tooth fairy brings the first time, you have to bring every time.  So just don't get elaborate!

We give SS $5.

Watching some football before going into work for a couple hours. Then making myself go to church tonight. I say "making myself" because I do want to go, but I fight the feeling that I'm not wanted there. My heart knows I am, my head doesn't agree.

 My sister gave my nephew a dollar coin. He dropped it in his piggy bank as soon as he woke up, didn't even show my sister or BIL. When sis asked what the tooth fairy left, nephew told her a dime.  She couldn't argue since he didn't actually show her Lol

 Go and bring my DS with you.  He is in a bar watching the Pat's since they are not on network TV.  He doesn't drink but really don't like him hanging in a bar on Sunday afternoon, especially since he is a Pat's fan.  He could get beaten!

---

 Yeah.....there arent too many Pats fans over here. My choices are the Browns or the Steelers.  The Colts are on Monday Night Football, so I'll get to see the game!

I do need to get myself over to columbus. My boss is traveling most of October, so maybe I'll actually get to do something other than work

Great morning! Beautiful weather, DH and I went to an awesome cafeteria (DG, did you ever go to Gray's?), then an apple orchard.

 Yes! Loved Gray Brother's. That was where I took myself to lunch to celebrate after my very first solo sale with Unique.

 And what do you do if the kid loses a tooth on a Sunday and you are out of gold coins?  Tooth Fairy was off last night?  Is that what you tell the kid?  LOL

---

 When I say 'I give' I mean DH gives.. and he has a stash of them.

 The Tooth Fairy wasn't always on time around here.

It happens.

THere was the time DD slept over at a friend's house and lost a tooth. She didn't tell them and just put it under her pillow and was a little put out that the tooth fairy didn't come. We told her the tooth fairy only visits her at our house. BUt we have also forgotten before too. DD thinks the tooth fairy is a little flaky.

Oh - and once the tooth fairy refused to come into the room because it was a mess. She left a note that night too.

Dd's tooth came out while swimming once and the tooth was lost in the pool. She had to write the tooth fairy a note.

My SS came over this weekend and he was hinting around about us buying him deodorant. He doesn't really NEED deodorant so I asked him if the other kids at school wear it. He told me that ALL the boys at school have their own thing of deodorant that the gym teacher keeps in a little container. They put their name on it and after gym they get to go in the office and use their deodorant. He said he was the only one who didn't have any. So we bought him some this weekend. One for home, one for school, and one for our house.

We are home. And worse for wear. Its going to be an early night....
