What's up with me?

So I have nothing to blog about today or yesterday or the day before that for any matter. But I missed you all so I figured what the heck, I'll just ramble for a bit.
So what's been going on with me? Hmmm, well yesterday Renee came over my house! Yup our very own Rene Lyons, gotta lover her. Her little girl is soooo cute, OMG I feel in love, and A loved her. J too, but her and A? What a pair. Rene is soooo freaking sweet, and her major plus???? SHE HAS PERFECT EYEBROWS. Yes I said eyebrows. Hey, don't think I'm weird! Everyone has that one thing they notice first when meeting a person, and eyebrows just happen to be my thing. So I'm all kinds of jealous of hers, they are PERFECT, no joke.
I got banned off a board. I am not kidding. Dylan had posted some questions on JR Wards board about her books. You know, how there are some gay undertones in her book and she didn't think the slang fit the persona of the characters. Stuff like that. But OMG they tore her up. So I went to defend my girl.....and now we're both banned from there. ha ha ah. Check our book blog Sanctuary's Finest with in the week to read all about it, from me, Dylan and Holly. It'll be great.
A is dancing. And OMG she is soooo cute, and she loves it. It is only for an hour once a week. I wish it were more cause every day she asks 'mommy do I have dance today?'. lol.
Next Friday I go on J's first school trip! Yeay, I asked him if he wanted me to go and he said yes. Sooooo I'm going. Now you'd think I'd be all kinds of excited about this but really I'm not. I mean yeah, it'll be fun to go with my son, but I'll be in charge of 4 kids total. I don't like other peoples kids! Soooo true. For some reason I have no tolerance for them. So I'll have to keep you posted on how that goes.
My husband just got a BIG raise!!! Soooo happy about that. He actually got offered a job for another company doing the same thing but he'd be a manager instead of a supervisor. Well when he told his boss they counteroffer. So we're all happy now. Sice the company he is with now has always been good to us and he has seniority there and all.
Me? I'm still stuck in my job I hate. Uggg, but I kinda don't want to leave till after Christmas. I mean I know it'll get more stressful and all but I love the busyness around the holidays. Not to mention the commission check will be huge.

Well that's it on me for now. What's going on with all you? Have any ideas on things I can post on? I'm having such a block right now.

......ThE gUy RooM!!!......

JD has forever wanted a 'guy room', you know a place to put up all his football stuff that he buys and I don't let him put anywhere else in the house. lol. So he's finally got it. His urge for one always becomes bigger right around preseason stuff for football, and since I am going to Vegas in November I figured why not. So the loft is his. It used to be the kids playroom but they were mostly just going up there getting toys and bringing them down to the living room or their room, so what the heck. The only rule? He had to keep two things up there. That big blue ball rolling game thing you see in this picture, cause it's to big to put anywhere else in the house and the kids love it. And J's basket ball thing. It's just a plastic hoop but I don't want it down stairs. So here's a picture...

It's so not done, obviously. You can still see the blue paint tape up. He painted the back wall grey (for the eagles) side walls white, and will hang all his eagles stuff up on the grey wall. He actually went to Home Dept and got "Eagles Grey" paint. *rolling eyes* And the football rug? lol, that used to be in J's room, we bought it for him. ha ha. And the sofa table you see in front of the window? yeah, that's coming down stairs, I just have to stain it first. It doesn't match the wood I have in the rest of the house. And that's J's recliner kinda just sitting there randomly, so cute it matches JD's to a T. And here's another angle of the room.

Oh and quick story behind that busted up fan? I was purposely annoying JD one night cause I was mad at him. And he threw the fan across the room and it fell down the stairs. So it broke all up, and he taped it back together. Don't know why we didn't just trash it. But now it kinda holds fond memories. lol. After he threw it I looked at him and said "Hmmm, do you feel better now?" ha ah ha!


Oh what the hell, since I posted pics of JD's guy room, lets show a picture or two of my room! The living room. Where my computer and books are.

Excuse the rug thrown over the railing. I didn't even notice it till I looked at the picture. It's my kitchen rug, but I was moping so I threw it there for a bit.

I'm going to be getting some kind of cover for that couch, I'm not really feeling the color. But it is soooo comfy!

So what do you think? Who has the better room. lol, I know what one the guys will pick.
