-Screeeeech!-


I'm sorry to say that I've got to bring this blog to a temporary halt!

Our family is moving this weekend so I wont be able to post.

I'll resume as soon as possible, hopefully in a few days.

Until then... Keep on Scrappin'!

-A peek into my life-


Which quality best describes your life--exciting, organised, dull, etc? How would someone else describe it (like your children, a high school friend, random person on the street)?

My life... I try to keep it "drama-free". What does that mean? No gossipy friends, no affairs, no substance addicts, no vindictive moments... you know, none of that soap opera stuff.

To some, these are the things that make an interesting life. To me, my family and close friends make my life interesting. No, we're not the conventional family who always does stuff together. In fact, it's been months since we've all had dinner together. We all do our own thing and share our things with each other.

Sometimes the things we share rub off on each other. For instance, my husband and son like playing video games. I'm very cautious about what I let my boardering pre-teen watch and play so in order for me to feel comfortable about what he's doing, I get involved.

Ok, if you're still reading, you'll realize that all I just said was a fancy way of saying I love playing video games! I'm ashamed to say it, but I totally see why boys like this stuff! Going around getting rid of bad guys is such a tension reliever! You have no idea!!! My husband likes getting the professional wrestling games. I don't think my son is ready to play those just yet because of the whole womanizing thing that they're known for, although I've noticed that it's not as bad as it used to be. Anyway, those are the best games to play when your mad! What's even better is when my husband and I play against each other! He plays much better than I do, so we don't do it when we're upset with each other, but it's still a fun way to make a decision. "If I win, you cook dinner, if you win, we order chinese!"

So much FUN!! :)

-What physical item can make or break your day?-


Today's prompt: What physical item can make or break your day? Or the day of someone else in your life?

Yummy drinks. Yes, I have a drinking problem, I just can't get enough! Not soda, though, I can do without that. I love juices, punch, fruity stuff, whatever has a sweet flavor to it. It keeps my day going to have something to sip on, you know, that constant sweet that fights off the sour. I try to always keep something in the fridge because I know my family likes it, too (although sometimes I don't like to share!).

When the good stuff is gone, I become a little agitated. I tend to snap at my husband, "get on it Kool-Aide Man!" since we long ago decided to take turns making it. Unfortunately I get impatient and I just go make it myself. But if that happens, I make something he doesn't like (like cherry) so I can have it all to myself... to share with the kids, of course! hehe!
