I try not to eat fast food either. Funnily enough I had chicken strips today (they´re grown up chicken nuggets lol) which I make with gluten free breadcrumbs and sesame seeds. I just love them and haven´t eaten a frozen or fast food nugget in years, I just don´t enjoy them, they´re never as good as my own.

I´ve also decided to cut down on my gluten intake...less bread, less pasta and even less carbs. I´m sure I´ll feel much better, I always do when my sister´s here and we can´t have any gluten and I eat less bread cos I feel sorry that she has to watch us eating all that stuff. Only thing I can´t resist is crackers and cheese....aw well, I am trying :wink
 
Thanks Denise! I love Rusted Root! And my favorite movie from a kid was The Lion King, and I like the African music in it :) if I didn't have so much on my plate, dog training, agility classes, trying to manage my dads businesses (3 of them!), painting (still want to take actual classes), keeping Leo happy all the time, having two rabbits and soon-to-be two dogs...I would totally do it!!!

Katie...well you can keep it in mind for the future.

That has been my snack lately, crackers and cheese. I'm not a morning person and my stomach is completely against eating breakfast but sometimes I get hungry too early for lunch but can eat something simple. Cheese and crackers are great for that.
 
I love cheese. BUT my husband just read an article that about cheese, like American cheese. Its so much NOT a cheese that the FDA wanted to call it "embalmed cheese-like product" or something like that. Just to say how it wasn't even remotely close to being a cheese. But they settled for "cheese by-product" instead. It makes me scared for all the cheeses you buy at the grocery store. Are they real cheese? I'm having some food issues if you couldn't tell.

As for the fast food, the town we neighbor and are in the most, has a great organic grocery store. That store sells premade food, from their organic and whole foods. They have pizza, pastas, sandwiches, burgers, soups, salad bar. So its like eating "fast" food because its already cooked, but its SO much better for you because its made with good preservative free food. They cook it everyday and their breakfast is delicious! So if we don't go to a restaurant to eat we'll go to the Earth Fare to get dinner.
I wish we lived in Europe and I had better access to markets and butchers and deli's. I've been trying to talk my husband into it. His company has a third part to it thats in Finland. I would totally live in Finland.

This morning started out crappy! I came down, my cat had peed in the floor. I had to get that up before doing anything. The whole time I'm cleaning it, Ellie is running around me and biting me and trying to bite my scrubber and jumping over the pee river. I wasn't happy with her. She also ripped open my package of paper towels and ripped open a roll! So while I'm fighting with Ellie, AJ is in the living room "mommy, mommy, mommy, mommy, mommy, mommy, mommy, mommy, mommy, mommy." I was like WHAT?! "I found car, I found car, I found car" times 50. Until I finally told him to be quiet. It was ridiculous. I guess its going to be one of those days where he just doesn't stop talking. It was like that the other day too. Sometimes...he's annoying. I guess its only going to get worse until he's a moody teenager and he stops talking to me all together.

Now I can still sort of smell pee and I'm SO MAD! I hate these cats sometimes. Its the old one and she's a big ole B! There are two litter boxes in the kitchen. I would rather her use Ellie's boxes than my floor, but she's never liked using the litter box. She never did, even before she was old and senile. I'm still mad though.

Ugh. Not a great way to start the day. Hopefully I can get into a better mood and get some things done. Thank god I got so much done yesterday and the day before.

Happy Friday! Hopefully everyone elses days started out better than mine!
 
Have you heard of the comedian Kat Williams? He does a bit about stuff nobody told him when having a kid. "All I wanted was for my baby to talk. No one ever told me that once he started he would never stop!"
People are so excited to hear their kids first word. Then it's down hill from there. Sorry about your morning even though it's pretty funny. To me. On this side looking in!
 
Sorry for the start to your day. I hate when a day starts off badly, isn't it enough that I am up?! Ha

I am eating some cheese and crackers now thanks to all the talk about cheese this morning. Ha. For years now I have sent in or taken in cheese and crackers for the kids parties at school. It is always a hit as everyone likes cheese and it's healthier than the normal cupcakes, potato chips and cookies most parents send in.

I don't know about American cheese but it hasn't killed me yet. Ha. I only like it as grilled cheese sandwiches and on burgers. Otherwise I can't stand it. I should try a different cheese though for making those things as I'm sure other cheeses could taste so much better.
 
Haha. I love Kat Williams.
But its the truth, I couldn't wait for AJ to talk to be able to tell me whats going on. I just didn't take into consideration that he would tell me EVERYTHING that was going on. All the cars and trucks and jeeps we see. Yes, he knows the difference. Telling the barn cat hello, 30 times. Then telling him by 10 times because he's being put into the car. That was the other day. Bronco, the barn cat, just sat there and was like "dude, stop."
Now he's on a "found" kick. Where if I find something, he found it. I pull a remote from the couch cushion, he's like "I found 'mote!" I'm like, alright your little politician baby, you will not take credit for what I did! He says he finds everything though.
He's crazy and sometimes I have to laugh because he's so serious.
He holds his hands out and asks for food. He has to eat everything that I eat, even if he has a mouth full of food. He comes and asks for bites, will cry if you don't feed him, so you sort of have to.

I love that he doesn't say things the right way. I think its hilarious that he asks in such a serious way but the word is pronounced incorrectly. Like he calls Smedley the cat, Swebby. LOL Its hilarious! Smedley is a hard name though, so I get it.

But sometimes after he's been talking to me all day and he's said "mommy" like 150,000 times, I've had enough. I can only hear mommy so many times before my head wants to cave in. That doesn't make me terrible does it?
 
I think I could live without most food but not without cheese. I love it but try not to buy my favourites that often as it´s really fattening. I love swiss gruyere and emmental and soft cheeses like Brie, Camembert and Cambazola and the Spanish cured cheeses are just gorgeous. One of my favourite meals is a really good cheese board with grapes, fresh bread, crackers and a really good red wine....heaven lol.
 
I love a good soft Brie but I really like any cheese, the older and smellier, the better. You definitely have to come to Spain Morgan, there are some fabulous cheeses here. :yes:
 
I love listening to little kids talk. They are so funny but I get hearing it all day as being too much. My son was in the "why" stage when I learned to drive. I always said I would not be easily distracted as I had to learn while answering a million why questions and that was just in one day.

I had neighbors once who had a young boy. Whenever he was down I would take him with me and he'd help do laundry by throwing the clothes in the washer while I held him up, or we'd play and mostly he would get snacks. healthy ones. He couldn't pronounce my name but I became known as "hey bite" because he would say it to me constantly.
 
"Bite" is just about the story of my life. All day today, AJ has been like, "hab juice, hab snack? Hab butter fanwich? Hab snack? Juice is empty! Hab juice? Bite? Mommy, can I hab bite?"

I've gotten so much stuff done today! haha. And I did a lot of stuff yesterday.
I had to bleach my navy blue bath mat last night. One of my cats peed on the rug and I did wash it but it still smelled. I put it in the wash again last night and dried it and it still smelled. I knew that bleaching it was the only way to get the smell out. I wasn't just going to throw it out, its Vera Wang! But the navy turned into a really nice mauve color. I like it a lot. Plus, the rug is still so nice and plush, theres not throwing it away! The smell is also gone now.
I think I might try to find a shower curtain that matches my "new" mat, its like I just redid my bathroom! LOL

I need to get some batteries from my camera!
 
I love the things kids come out with sometimes. I was just talking to some friends today about a new programme that has famous people and their kids and they have to answer questions about each other. Some of the kids answers are hilarious. I was laughing because my friend was talking about jogging pants and one of the kids last week said they couldn´t understand why mom spent all her time in jogging pants when she didn´t even go jogging, it did make me chuckle. I do so love the logic of young children, why do we adults always complicate things lol.
 
Lol Chris! That made me laugh out loud. I love my sweats but they're over-sized and only for lounging purposes lol. I have a pair of jogging pants but if we go to a hotel I bring them and sleep in em.

Oh are we talking about lazy pants? Thats where I am an expert.
Because I pretty much live in yoga pants. Yep. True story. They're the best things ever, you can go out in them, you can work out in them, clean house. I do all those things, in them. LOL Half the time you can't tell if I just got done working out or just got out of bed. I like to keep people on their toes. But most of the time, I just got off the couch!

Yesterday, I went with my husband to play disc golf. We had a good time. We went to a park that we haven't been too. My husband went as a teenager, but not since. Its been redone and it was SO nice! There was a huge lake where you can rent peddle-boats and kayaks. There is a walk way all the way around the lake, its got to be like 3 miles. I can't wait to walk it! haha. There were a ton of shelters for people to have picnics, and they were all full of families cooking hotdogs and hamburgers on the grills, those were all in the woods. But in front of the lake, there were 3 huge shelters for people. It was really nice! We were like totally surprised at the way it was, because the town it is in, is disgusting. Like a seriously gross town, where half the stores are closed and vandalized. But it had this hidden treasure of a park in its bowels! I did take a picture, I'll post it soon.

I woke up super ill this morning. Then Ellie pissed me off. She ate the rubber strip off another dust pan. I know I left it down there, but why does she have to eat everything that is rubbery like that? Its like she gets mad at me for not giving her all the pellets she wants and she eats my things!
Then she bit me. haha. She nipped my leg though my pants, but like my calf. I guess she was trying to get my pants, but she got me and good god it hurt! I stomped my foot at her and I think she gets it now. I gave her some pellets and she now she's happy and flopped out in front of her bowl.
She's also really fat. LOL Fat. Round, like a rabbit ball. Oh well.

Going to another park today, a nice one. It has a nice track on it for me to push AJ's stroller. Then it has a nice playground for AJ to play on. We went to a playground yesterday and AJ played and had so much fun. Until we had to leave, then he screamed and cried and was really dramatic when we left. LOL Then he cried in the car for like 10 minutes and I had to tell him to shut it up! He was exhausted yesterday though, he spent the afternoon at grandma's and had no nap! haha.

Happy Sunday! Hopefully everyone gets stuff done or gets some rest!
 
Okay, so y'all know how my ceiling tile fell out last week? My hub and I found out why it fell out. Because it made no sense for it to just FALL out like that. My hub was in the kitchen a few minutes ago and heard this sound in the ceiling. He was like, I think there is a cat in the ceiling! I knew it was Cali, she was the only on in. So I looked at the hole where the tile goes and there was fur on the neighboring tile. I called Cali to the hole and she popped her head out! I was SO mad.
No wonder the rabbit was so scared, not only did the tile fall from the sky, but the freaking cat did too! haha. I bet it was terrifying.

She got in because there a cut out in the wall in our bedroom upstairs. Makes no sense, don't know why its there. I hate it. I think the junkie people who lived here before us cut it to put a dresser in front of, so they could hide their drugs in the ceiling. I'm going to fix it! And I'm going to paint that room.
Stupid house.

I just had to tell you guys about that, because it was so crazy. That **** fat cat!
 
Morgan that's sheer craziness! Your house is sheer craziness! I hope that house goes through. You need a little peace and quiet. You could have your own DIY home show.

Had to laugh about AJ getting upset. I'm always the one laughing in the stores when kids do it to their parents.

Kai bites but only when you pick him up. When Shya bites it's because you did something bad. When Franklin bites he thinks you have food. Kai's hurt the worst but Shya's are the scariest!

Monday I'll mail a box out to you. Went to the dragon mart. It's like a big flea market, wal-mart affordable, type HUGE mall thing. There's something in there for AJ too.
 
You have been busy. I know I didn't get on here till last night and now today but you posted a lot. Ha!

I love yoga pants but I need to find some more, mine are getting faded to the point that I don't wear them out but I do wear them at home. I wear jogging pants in the winter when I'm cold but of course only at home.

The park sounds lovely. I miss going to parks. We have them here just none close to home. In Pa we had one near by that was acres and acres. They had pavilions which also had swing sets and other play ground equipment, even some volley ball nets. each pavilion had a huge amount of ground around it so plenty of room for kids to run and you weren't bothered by other people. A river runs through it so you can fish as well. It also has trails through the woods that you can walk. I used to take the kids all of the time and we would walk. The one path had a big creek that ran parallel to it and sometimes we would walk in the creek when it was hot.

Thumper has only bit me once and he was nibbling my pants and got a little to excited and got me. It didn't break the skin but did leave a mark. It hurt.

Crazy cats. At least you know your ceiling isn't just falling apart due to age or something.
