I swear the boys download so much crap that when I finally kick them off of it, I cannot even get the thing to work!! I tried writing my RTT via my phone for the first time, but I got too aggravated with the touch screen. Apparently I kept touching it in the wrong spot.<\/p>\n<p>This time of year makes me want to bake all sorts of goodies. Of course this time of year is so busy that I don&#8217;t have time to bake beautiful, yummy, creative treats! Honestly I would much rather spend hours baking than spend an hour making dinner. I hate cooking and everything that comes along with it. From planning meals, grocery shopping and then cooking&#8230;..ugh! Believe me, if I were independently wealthy I would have a personal chef. Oh and a maid to do all those dishes, that&#8217;s something I hate right up there with cooking.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve decided this year that I&#8217;m not sending Christmas cards. I know, it&#8217;s rude and everything, but I don&#8217;t feel like sending a card that people are only going to eventually throw out. I never send cards for other occasions all year long, why start now for Christmas? I really don&#8217;t think anyone is going to care if I send any or not.<\/p>\n<p>Going all day long with 4 or 3 hours of sleep is not really working for me. Obviously my sleeping pill is not working anymore. The lack of sleep gave it away.<\/p>\n<p>Words with Friends is the best when you have to sit and wait somewhere. Seriously, it actually gives me patience. Now I don&#8217;t mind waiting at the Dr.&#8217;s office, etc. because I can play my turn.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Elle<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We are doing something new here at BMB. Mondays we have been participating in Meow Monday, brought to you by the wonderful <a href=\"http:\/\/smalltownmommy.com\">Anne from Small Town Mommy<\/a>and her cat Oreo. In addition to pictures of our own cats, each week we will be featuring a cat from our local shelter, Lollypop Farm, as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lollypop.org\/site\/c.clKUI9OQIoJcH\/b.7792297\/k.8454\/Pet_of_the_Week.htm\">Pet of the Week<\/a>. We are hoping to help some cats find their forever homes. If you know anyone in the greater Rochester, NY area, please let them know.<\/p>\n<p>Stacy was complaining about her lack of sleep. This week I&#8217;m not going to be sleeping much at all. How else am I going to get everything done?<\/p>\n<p>Tonight J-Man was complaining about school and his teacher. I told him she was just trying to help him be the best student possible. He said &#8220;It&#8217;s one thing to help me be the best student it&#8217;s another thing to <em>force<\/em> me to be the best student.<\/p>\n<p>Sissy said something really funny during dinner this evening. Too bad I can&#8217;t remember what it was.<\/p>\n<p>I spent the afternoon running errands and shopping with DD and finally got home at 6pm. I was <strong>very<\/strong>pleasantly surprised to find Sissy and my husband making dinner!!!! Yay! It was like an early Christmas present!<\/p>\n<p>I bought some Christmas Hershey kisses today and Sissy was all excited to put them out in the holiday candy dish.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/bluemonkeybutt.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/20111220-004354.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/bluemonkeybutt.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/20111220-004354.jpg?w=1200\" alt=\"20111220-004354.jpg\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>She is definitely her father&#8217;s daughter.<\/p>\n<p>Last week J-Man was helping me with cards. After he put the card in the envelope I told him to lick the edge of the envelope because there was glue on it. He looked at me and after a moment he said &#8220;That&#8217;s disgusting!&#8221;<br \/>\nI had to lick all the envelopes myself.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t forget to join us for What The He&#8217;ll Wednesday tomorrow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If it&#8217;s Tuesday this must be Random Tuesday Thoughts.
