I heart Target…

But my wallet doesn’t! I just love the fact that we now have a Target! BUT, I always spend way to much money there. They just having the cutest stuff! Yah it’s sTuFf or wAnTs not necessities as my Grandfather used to say! Halloween stuff, home stuff, cute clothes for boys, picture frames, candles, food, everything is just so cUtE! Anyone agree with me?

If Target’s not your store where you break your wallet, then, please share and tell us where you like to go broke? 🙂

Friday Forum – Snack Attack

1] Which snack foods do you enjoy the most? Do you prefer salty or sweet snacks [or both]?
It depends on my craving. I love to snack so my list is long:
M&M’s, Snickers, Fritos, Apples and Caramel, Necco candy, Hershey Kisses, Doritoes, popcorn, chips, granola bars, cereal, peanut butter and crackers, ETC

2] Do you tend to snack most often during a particular time of day, such as mid-morning or late at night?
I snack all the time (bad, I know!)

3] Have you been craving any snacks in particular lately? Like what?
Lately, Neccos because we got some at WalMart and bought some. I have had to retrain myself from attacking the entire bag!

4] Would you rather snack on chocolate or candy? [In other words, are you a chocolate or a candy person?]
CHOC – O – LATE!!! I’m a major Choco-holic!

5] Do you crave any snacks that others might think are strange? Like what? Did you invent this snack yourself, and how did it come about?
Hmmmmmm….let me think on that one!

Symmetrically Zitty

Why is it that when my face breaks out it has to be symmetrical? I get a zit on the right side 2 inches to the right of my nose and one day later, what do I get? a zit on the left side 2 inches to the left of my nose. Both in the exact same latitude/longitude point ON MY FACE!! Arck! Anyone else have this lovely problem?

What does A.D.D. equal?

There was a comedian on the cruise who was kind of funny, but he made a great point:

He prefaced it by saying that A.D. D. is Attention Deficit Disorder, etc. Then, he said, “But what does A.D.D. really mean?”

(parents) “Ain’t Doin’ Didly!”

I agree! I won’t get on my soap box about that right now though:-) Just find this to be true in many cases.

Driving to Florida 2005::Tampa, FL

Very happy to driving towards Florida

Alright, I’m going to try and get caught up with my cruise stories.

On our way to Tampa!

The first one consists of me, TV Boy, and Monkey (the 3 of us) in the back seat of the Explorer. I was back there with them since Nick, Rob’s brother, was going with us. Both on the way to Tampa AND on the way back, my kids and I had some serious “bonding” time. If you’d like to call it that! 6-7 hours sitting hip to hip and hip to car seat is tedious, mind boggling, and priceless. TV boy got all his make up work done, which was good. Monkey boy screamed much of the way back. Now that wasn’t a constant scream this is silence……….SCREAM……..silence………AHHHHHHHH…….silence and the pattern continues. That is quite annoying! We try to keep his mind off the boredom, but that was very difficult! Monkey boy annoyed TV boy often so I had to sit in the middle most of them time. We did watch a movie on the way down by using my Power Book G4 as the DVD player (great little trick). Anyway, if you’ve ever thought you were annoyed by your children, you haven’t experienced the priceless affair until you’ve been stuck in the back seat with your 2 kids for 6+ hours. 🙂

On our way to Tampa!

This weekend

Well, my birthday was great! My in-laws came to take me out to eat. We went to Shogun Japanese Grill, which was so good! I got a food processor, which I was really needing since my Ultimate chopper blew up! I also got a certificate for a new blog site! I’ll be working on getting that in place this month. Yesterday we went to see Elton John and Philips Arena in Atlanta. We rode MARTA and had the awful experience of getting mooned. It was NOT fun. I was very nervous! Also, we decided we sneak my camera in. The guy was checking my purse and as soon as he let me go, Mr. A says “He didn’t find your camera!!” We’re like SSSSSHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! The concert was good, but our seats were not that great and we sat by people who could have cared less about the concert and were more interested in smoking and beer! Today starts the marathon for getting ready to leave for our cruise Wednesday after work!

Hope you’re having a good weekend!
