Yummy!
It gets scarier by the day here at casa de crazy. Jayke put a bag of rocks that he picked up at Oma's on the kitchen table the other day. The following day My gramma told my mom that she thought it was salt water taffy and tried to take a bite out of one. Okay, I can accept that, even though I'm wondering why she wouldn't have tried to unwrap the rock taffy before chomping into it. What I'm finding hard to accept is that the very next day she saw the same bag of rocks on the table and this time thought it was toffee and tried to eat ANOTHER ONE! Two days...two rocks. WTH?

Yeah...I know St. Patty's Day is Over...
I'm BACK...again! I know it has been a while and you probably thought I'd given up on this blog thing. I actually thought I had but I got ambitious tonight and decided to put something on here. Let's see...I missed St. Patrick's Day. Turns out this is my boss's favorite holiday and she gave away a great gift...which I didn't win...that day if you wore green.
Both Jayke and I were totally decked out for the holiday which is also the anniversary of my grandfather's death. We figured Grammy could use some cheering up that morning so we came down wearing LOTS of green...see below...
It worked...she was cracking up at the leprechaun and his side kick.
I don't really feel like a whole lot has happened since I last blogged. There was a field trip that involved milking a cow but I will save that for a later post since I don't have the pictures uploaded yet. I did get 8 inches of my hair cut off and am ready to go back in and get more chopped off. Okay...the 8 inches only came off the back and the front is still as long as it was, think Posh Spice, and I love it!
I made a new friend at work, Laura. She and I hang out, go shopping, and out to lunch together. She has a daughter, Hannah, who is almost 5 years old. She is going to play soccer with Jayke starting April 7th. We have been practicing and I got Jayke a super cute bag that has his name on it to haul all our gear out to the sports plex twice a week.
Another friend at work is Sara. She is my office mate. Our jobs kind of go together and we help each other a lot. Laura is right next to us and it is a wonder we get anything done. I do get tons done though. My boss and the CEO of the company tracked me down the other day to tell me that since I've started credit card payments are higher than they have ever been in the history of the company and they think it is because I have gotten so many closure letters out to collect from patients. My review is coming up in a few days...should be getting a raise then. There is more going on with that too but I will talk about that another time.
Jayke and I both got rollerblades and we are going to start skating. I took him to the rollerrink the other day and he amazed me. He put those skates on and went right out there. No fear! I had to have bigger kids chasing after him half thetime to bring him back to me. He was heading out to the center to do the hokey pokey at one point...all by himself! Crazy. Next time we go I'm going to lace em up with him.
We had Easter at our house, my mom's and my dad's. Got way too much candy and several Nintendo DS games from the Easter bunny. We are now on a search for a Wii. My sister had managed to buy two and is looking for two more now. Jayke and I have become Mario junkies so we have to get a Wii so we can play Brawl, Paper Mario, and Mario Galaxy. We are obsessed! Nintendo has taken up my blogging time. It has actually taken up my tv viewing time too.
Well, that is enough of what's going on with us for now. If you have emailed me and I have not answered it is because I am never on the computer anymore. I sit in front of one all day so coming home to one is not what I want to do. I will update now and then when I can though. TTFN!

Monkeying Around
Two monkeys playing games. We are obsessed, addicted, whatever you want to call it to the Nintendo DS. Super Mario brothers and Sonic to be exact. Here The Boy is laying on his monkey Daddy got him for Valentines Day playing his game.
Not much going on in our lives. Work, school, and soccer. Soccer ends next weekend and will start outside in April. I can't wait.
My boss is adding more things to my job...I am that good. I am fast and she loves that because I have totally caught them up with MDPREPS which is when we turn people over to collections who have not paid their bills. I also require very little training for some reason. Tomorrow is the big employee of the month thing so I may win something again...who knows. Not really like me to be lucky and win things but maybe my luck is changing for once since I won last time. I have yet to watch the movie I won last month. I just don't watch much tv anymore. I'm not on the computer much anymore either. I'm not home that much when I think about it. What the heck do I do all the time?
