shhhh don't tell anyone I'm crazy

Wow I am so tired. Just had to get that out of the way lol. Don't even have a reason -oh well.Now what did i say I was going to talk about tonight/???????? hmmm thats right I was going to talk about my room changes and the pups. Since the pups were actually first I will do them.
i have a 12mth old chihuahua named Chui. He is absolutely gorgeous with the personality of giant can you tell I love him? Well the randy little bugger managed to get my sisters malchi (maltese x chihuahua) which is half his size preggers and that waswith us trying to keep them separate. anyways 62 days later she goes into labour after spending a couple of weeks looking like a keg on legs and 12 hrs later the poor bugger is exhausted and no nearer to delivery so my sis races her over to the vet snd now $800 later and an emergency caesarian we ended up with 3 little boy puppies that when lined end to end they were longer than her. Well they are cute little critters and now its 2 weeks later and their eyes and ears(?) are open and they are trying so hard to crawl you can allready see their personalities evolving. well there will be more on them at a later time as I keep you up-to-date on their progress.
Now to me and my irrational need to keep changing things. I decided I needed a bigger and brighter craft room so I moved it into our foyer after closing the front door off, people will just have to use my store entrance (advertising? lol)   now since my craft room had previously been a cordoned off area of my room decided all that space could be put to better use by housing 2 kids instead of 1 adult cue room swap, I move into their long skinny room and masters 11 and 12 move into my much wider room giving them several more square meters of space, as you can see 1 little idea for me always ballons into something bigger and every 1 just thinks I'm crazy, well I have been known to post a "you are here'' map on facebook because my front door moved 3 times in 1 week once.

Well thats it for tonight my eyes feel like sandpaper so I might try and get a early night haha

random trivia.... by slowly raising your legs and lying on your back you wont sink in quicksand

it never just rains but pours

Well it's been a while but I am back.  Last night lying in bed on the laptop just surfing away and paying bills, I'm listening to the lulling sound of rain on our tin roof. Ahhhh nice I hear you say, it was, until I hear 'drip, drip drip, plop'. You guessed it the rain just came through the roof. Here I am with an injured left wrist (old wooden door fell on it last Saturday) yelling for my kids to get up to give me a hand whilst trying to find buckets to catch the water, when I realise the 42in plazma is about a foot off also getting a good soaking. OMG freak mode. My 15 yr old is away woking with his grandfather on a stock truck, my 16 yr old is almost zombie like from doing 12hr days on a local farm during the school holidays, the 12 yr old is (still buzzed up on cake and apple/blackcurrent turnovers due to haveing been his birthday ) is only 132mm high and the other 2 (master's 11 and 14) are scattered looking for buckets, towels and mops bless their souls. How do I move it? push-shove and in strolls Master 16 "what" small grunt and he has tv and unit a metre and a half across the room. 'Thanxs your a hero' and he's not even there, he promptly turned around and went right back to bed and sound asleep. If only it was so easy.
So i send the others off to bed realise this all only took 10 minutes but I'd love a coffee anyway and what do you know we are out, really tempted to cry here. Decide on haveing a glass of milk instead and going back to bed and trying the sleep idea. After all I know how my mind works.
Woke up feeling quite stiff to an incredibly horrid day and decide well why clean when you can move......mwahaha...... once you know me you'll see I do this often but now after all the room changes I am exhausted so I am going to get an early night and bid you all adieu before the clock strikes midnight and will leave you with the promise that I will return tomorrow night and tell you about the house changes and remind me to tell you all about our puppies

random trivia--- in Massachusetts it is illegal to grow a goatie without a permit LMAO

blah blah

Well I've spent today making more jewellery for my store things are going really slowly because I've been crook and it has left me so tired. All I want to do is go off to zzzzzzzzzzz land but unfortunately my insomnia is still stronger so I look like a zombie and mine brain is working about as well any way not much more been happening except running round after my boyz oh and forgot to let you know I think I am winning this war with fleas. Sill got them but not anywhere near as many, bring on the cold weather.
Anyway not much else so I will say "adieu" for 2nite.

fleas

Well on the weekend past we decided it was time to do the de-fleaing and worming wasn't that a task.  We have an Alaskan malamute, Irish wolfhound, Great Dane, Chihuahua and Mal-chi a tabby cat a huge rabbit and various other species (chooks, fish budgies) so you can imagine the task along with the size of my family.  Ok so the dogs have all been washed twice with flea shampoo worm tablets given flea spot on treatments and flea tablets, the flea powder for extra measure. Mallawash all bedding and outside areas applied lime along wall periter outside flea bombed inside and roof cavity. Then we did the cat and added a flea collar instead of spot on.Now I know your thinkin' this girl is crazy that is overkill even a cockroach couldn't survive an assault like that because hey that's what I thought but guess what.
Drum roll !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We still have fleas.
I swear there is twice as many. Help what do I do I'm going around the bend I know they reckon Australian fleas have been building up an immunity but this is ridiculous.
I suppose on the plus side at least there is no evidence of worms'
LMAO
any way till next time
Blessed be

Getting started

March 6 2011

I'm really new at this. I have never blogged before or even participated in chat, though I've read many and do use social networks like face book but I have decided it's time to keep a journal and since my life is an open book because I don't bother to hide anything about myself I figure what can it hurt to write where the world can read it , criticize, judge, compliment or even laugh at what is going through my mind at the time.
Well I don't know how regular I will be about this because if you glance at my about me you will see that at times I've got a pretty full plate but after all these years I am finally learning the meaning of "me time". I can tune out the world and go lalala and visit the little aliens in my head (my happy place where everyone admits when they do something and still remember to be nice to each other)lol.
Any way I thought you might like to know a bit more about me so that you will understand why sometimes my mind wanders and I go off on a total different direction (sometimes mid sentence).  Now where was I ? oh, yea I am a 35 yr old sing le aussie living in a town with a population of 110 on a good day, 8 of which live in my house. There is Me yay my mum, my boys KJ who is 15 and in yr 10, DK who is 14 in yr 9, MJ 13 in yr 8 and CD and CR who are both 11 and in yr 6, also my 'lil sis is staying while she changes her life direction.
I love mother nature and think she is having a bit of a fit at the moment NB the cyclones, floods,earthquakes and fires we are experiencing this year. I say we pay attention 'cause she is not happy. I like to support causes by spreading the word as I can't afford to donate (which upsets me but I need to make sure my kids come first no matter what anyone else thinks). I am a strong believer in being yourself  no matter what else happens because if you are true to you then you will find lasting happiness unlike those that just try to make everyon else happy and end up losing the joy being alive brings.
my advice to anyone and everyone who needs a thought for the day is ;
         Stop look around and find something beautiful in your life , a smile, a smell. a bird tweeting or cricket chirping, the colour of the sky after a storm anything you can find and share the feeling you get from it by doing something nice for another person wheather you know them or they are a total stranger it will make a special memory that people care.
