Believe it or not, the last couple of days have been kind of tough. I've found myself sobbing for Molly in the middle of intersections, or sitting in the car in a parking lot..........

And Kailey has been hitting kids at daycare (3 is a REALLY tough age for them........ they're trying to become their own little person instead of ours............) and she is normally such a lamb I just never thought she'd do something like that.

I'm terribly afraid that Christopher is going to start smoking on the road again............ and between that and some other health issues......
Well, a girlfriend and I have both told our hubbies that we are, in effect, trying to prepare ourselves for loosing them........

But you guys make me feel SO VERY MUCH better about this life and my place in it that somehow nothing really seems too unbearable. So today I'm off to see the stage production of "Edward Sissorhands" the musical with a friend and then we're coming back here to make some yummy appetizers, open some champagne and have a slumber party (she is spending the night as neither of us drink and then drive). I'm planning on wearing my hubby's African pith helmut (the Brits wore them in desert climates) and yes, he actually does have one..... and I think Kailey actually left a pink tutu lying around here somewhere............
So I will be appropriately dressed for the occasion. No propeller though, dammit!.........................
So I will leave you with a few images before I wander off to start getting myself together:

Penelope has gone completely out of her mind......
Ok, nothing new there. She's been laying eggs virtually everyday for the last 10-12 days straight and if they weren't less than half an inch in size I could probably start cooking with them (remember, she's a virgin..... they are unfertilized)!!!!!! And speaking of fertilization.....

OMG!!! WHAT IS IT WITH BOYS AND THEIR PENIS'S ?!!!!!
(what the Sam Hill is the plural of penis?) maybe the penis is the reason piffle needs to be conjugated to perform appropriately!!!
Luna has been humping (yes, much to my chagrin..... HUMPING!)
EVERYTHING IN SIGHT!!!!! Kailey's little stuffed animals, my socks (with or without my feet actually being in them at the time), my hand when I pet him......... and the list goes on and on and on and on and on and on ad nauseum! I WANT MY GIRL BACK!!!!

On the other hand...............
P is doing everything short of putting out landing lights to show the way to her bum....... so if I could get her to spend more time on the floor while he's out............. and then there's the whole inter-species dating thing to overcome............. But then I could start raising Cockachins!............

Now please excuse me whilst I go urinate on that brilliant idea and then set it on fire!!!!!

Perhaps this evening Lori and I shall go out in our jammies and look for houses in the neighborhood desperately in need of redecorating of the white tissue variety!........... Although no one bothered to tell me when the statute of limitations on said behavior expires?!

I really love you guys and I am SO VERY grateful to have you in my life......... there will never be enough words to explain it with.........

I\'d see the bus about a mile away over on Johnson Ridge... so I\'d hie meself to the outhouse... hey I didn\'t know the bus was almost to my house... and when ya gotta go... ya gotta go.... and so alas... I missed the bus... and we lived way out in the country... and I couldn\'t go to school that day... sniff... sob... sniff... I remember these things all to well... that\'s how come I still can\'t help but be amused when kids pull some of their stunts... they think we\'re so stupid... hell we\'re as smart they are... or we used to be.... I guess yall all doin the jailhouse rock now... sorry bout that... oh... and don\'t worry about Lisa... she said good morning... Hee Hee.... To really enjoy this joke... I hope you read her hugs...

Wanders off... makes me remember a story my deceased husband told me... He was a Ken Maynard fan... the real old old Old West Movies... so you see Woody said at the end of every movie Ken Maynard would kiss his horse and ride off into the sunset... he was like Woody\'s idol... but then that darn Ken Maynard... he ruined it all... he kissed the girl... UGH!!!! and rode off into the sunset... and life was never the same for Woody and the other younguns like him again...

Well I did go home last night to avoid incarceration....however....a person named Lori called to say Janine and her were arrested with a bus load of roudy people. I went to get them out of the pokey and pulling up in front of Janine\'s, I saw Alissa on a wooden horse kissin a guy named Maynard. Since the horse was on a dolly it was pretty easy to pull it on out of Janine\'s yard sooo I hooked it to the back of the truck and dragged it on back to Alissa\'s yard. Now that is something to see with it\'s delux outhouse...a rusted old school bus and a line of ATMs with flashing lights and men in tights giving out drinks for free. I stumbled back to my truck and rolled on down the road. I let myself in to my \"normal\" place and set off the alarm. Four cop cars arrived and it took me two hours to explain why I was standing there in pick leotards and no tutu. They wanted me to go to this nice peaceful place but I explained I was just too worn out from my adventures at Janine\'s. They are sending someone over there to talk things over with her. Sigh..

Wow, this Greek Mythology is more entertaining than I remember from school...the Trojan Horse never seemed so amusing back then. And I too have had real outhouse experience...Mom\'s dad had one and it was a ways out back \'hind the house. Also had the old pump for water but since he hadn\'t lived in the house for awhile due to his illness, the pump hadn\'t been used in some time...so my cousins and I went to get some water out of the pump one day and pumped the handle and what do you suppose came out??? Little baby birds!!! Birds...they\'re everywhere!!!
