Who knew!!!!!!!!?????

Look at this "out of the blue" email I got today:



My name is Lee Kiang, an attorney at law. A deceased client of mine, that shares
the same last name as yours died as the result of a heart-related
condition in March 12th 2008.
I have contacted you to assist in claiming the money left behind by my
client(US$19 milliondollars) in the bank.
Reply me through this email:
Regards


Lee Kiang
 
I am so upset over my never met/never knew relative dying from some heart related condition
BUT
it was so kind of him/her to leave me all this money.
They must have known I need the cash.
 
Of course, I am perplexed.
 
Most of my relatives are from Ireland, Scotland or Germany mostly.
Really the last few generations are from NJ, PA & KY.
 
I never, ever figured I had a relative somewhere other than those places.
Sure this unknown, generous relative could be from the places I mentioned but my heart is telling me they have been living in an Asian country for awhile.

Just a feeling.
 
Tell me, have you lost a unknown relative and stand to inherit millions?
I hope you have contacted the lawyer.
 
I am off right now with my soc sec number & bank info in an email to this lawyer.
 
Really, it's legit!
Come on.
Why would someone not leave me this amount of cash.
 
Well I am going to go peruse the real estate websites to see if I can find a mansion for when my money comes in.
 
Woo hoo!

Can I have jam please?

A frequently asked question upon entrance to the van by the Cheeks.
"Can I have jam please?"
or while flipping thru the tv we come across a video.
"Mommy, I wanna see that. It's jam!"


Let me show you who sings said jam:
Oh, that's right.
Cheeks is an avid fan of Lady Gaga.


I mean he luvs her.
He knows all the words to "Bad Romance", it's his "jam"
He loves to watch her videos when they come on.


Of course, I let him watch what I deem appropriate.
He will even dance to her music.


I think he has a little crush on her.
Altho. his type is usually woman w/ extremely dark hair & very pale skin.
Snow White type.


Go figure.


Tell me who are your kiddos into?

A Fools Bet

You would think by now he would learn.
He would learn to never doubt my endless knowledge of useless celebrity/music facts.
If there is no point in really knowing this info.,then I know it.


Case in point.
Watchin "American Gangsta" with Bobster.
Scene comes on.
I say "Is every rapper in this movie?"
Him "What are you talking about?"
Me "Well that's Common, he used to rap, now he focuses on acting & his girlfriend is Serena Williams.  That one is T.I.  He's in jail, just about to get out or just got out"
Him "No way!"
Me "Really, wanna bet? Go google it"
We bet.  I don't want to say what the wager was but involved produce.
Me "What's that hon? Those actors are Common & T.I. No, say it isn't so"
Bet #1 Winner:  Me!

Other night watching "Wall Street" we start to talk about Martin Sheen & Charlie Sheen.
Me" Yes, Bobster, I know they are father & son.  He is also the father of Emilio Estevez.  Martin Sheen's real last name is Estevez & he changed it.  Charlie's real name is Carlos"
Him "You're lying.  They have the same father but not the same mother.  Martin had custody of Emilio before he got married"
Me: "Oh Bob, do you really want to go down this road?  They have the same mom & he has 2 more kids with her, a girl & a boy"
Him "Wanna bet? Look it up!"
We wager (him, produce again, me, foot rub)
So I IDMB it & lo & behold there it is.
Martin Sheen married Janet Templeton & they have four children.
Together.
Bet #2: Winner: Me!
Bring on the foot rub!


The End.

It's a Monday on a Thursday

So while I sit home today, with no brakes on the mini van, missing a day of work & waiting to get my tush to Pep Boys, I have decided to paricipate in the "Not Me" meme that is usually done on Mondays.
Hence while I am doing it on Thursday.

For those that don't know what it is, it was started by MckMama (google her, I can't link, slows the darn 'puter down) to say what she did during the week but didn't do.  That type of thing.
You'll figure it out when you read mine.
Altho. mine is a compilation of things I didn't really do for a some time.

See:
It wasn't me that told my 3 yo as I wiped his tush & he wimpered that "Oh it would be a lot worse if you were in prison!"

It was not me who served myself & the 3yo grilled cheese & macaroni & cheese for dinner.

It was not me who wasn't concerned that Bobster fed our son a soft pretzel for lunch & called it a day.

Those are just some of the fun highlights in the not me world of my life.

How about you?
What not me moments have you had this week?

It's a banner day for us!

I would like to report that for almost a week and a half, we have been BINKY free!
Oh that's right.


I took it from him the night before Easter.




Why you ask?
Well he asked to have it while watching his movie in his pj's right before bed.
I said ok.
I glance at him.
There it is, in his mouth, sucking away.


A few minutes later, I look at him & it's gone.
No biggie.
Probably just fell in his lap.
No,no.
Glance back, he yawns.
There is the entire green binky in his mouth & his lips are covering it.


I had him hand me the binky & told him he wasn't getting back.
He asked me for it at bedtime but I was steadfast & said no.


He didn't cry for it.
He did the next morning for about 20 mins but I held out & didn't give it.
He asked for it at night but for the past 3 nights he has not asked.


Woo hoo!


So at 3 and a half years old, we are finally binky free.


Yay!

Spring Time, my mortal enemy!

First I would like to show all of you who I was next to, in front of or behind on the way home today.
Oh that's right.
That's the infamous WeinerMobile.
Lemme tell ya, it's a swee ride.
Cheeks was tickled to death & just had to tell everyone he saw the hot dog truck on the way home.


It was a beautiful day in beautiful South Jersey
BUT
Sadly, I suffer from horrendous allergies.
Take a peek at my eyes.
Not sure how good you can see but the lovelyl red coloring is from being outside about 5 minutes.  They itch & burn like crazy,I sneeze, on average about 6x's every half an hour & my nose is stuffed beyond belief not to mention my throat itchs like a mofo!
OoH! That was a run on sentence, now, wasn't it.
Could never tell I have a degree in English.


Also wanted to let you all know I am over here today:
Come check it out!!!


Tell me do you suffer from allergies?
What do you take to combat it?
Have you ever seen the WeinerMobile?

Happy Easter!!!!!!!!!!

Not happy!!

I want to cry.
Yep.
Big wails.
I have the lung power to do it.


Why you wonder?
Well I was leaving this morning.
Camera in my bag.
BOOM!
Bag hit the ground.
Of course it did.
That was the type of day I was having.



Got in the car.
Inspected the camera.
It's now broken.
Yeppers.
My Olympus Digi is broken.
The zoom no longer works.
Have to see if I can get it fixed.
Until then,
No camera.

Meg Ryan's Mom


Back a little ways I asked for ideas to do with Cheeks for the cold winter days since NJ experienced a winter like Minnesota.
I said I would feature those that gave me some ideas.


Well out of all my followers only one took up my offer.


That was Meg Ryan's Mom from Look It's Megryansmom


She suggested I take some snow & put it in the tub to let Cheeks play.
I liked the idea sadly, I never did it & now there is no snow left...THANK GOD!


Anywho, first let me just say she is not Meg Ryan's mom, like the Nana thought. The Nana was impressed & thought I was communicating with Meg Ryan's mom. Nana's a pretty woman, kwim?


Now the reason she has such great ideas is because she watches her grandsons. Check out her blog to see what cuties they are! One is just a few months old...I love me some chubby babies & her youngest grandson is a chubber!!!


She also blogs for Chicago Mom's Blog, like I blog for NJ Mom Blog. And she is very witty!!!


So go check her out.
Tell her I sent you.
I even noticed my sister is following her.
She must be cool if Erin is following her.

Ranch Life

So while the dulcid tones of the movie "Spiderman 2" play in the background I was perusing the internet & reading one of my fav blogs:
The Pioneer Woman
Ever read her blog?
If not, go, do not hesistate, just go
And
Check out her cookbook:
The Pioneer Woman Cooks


I digress.
So I said to my beloved.
"Hon, if you ever wanna live on a ranch, I wanna live on a ranch like this one"
&
Then, ala Vanna White, I turned the monitor & showed him her blog.


He says
"You could never live on a ranch. You wouldn't make it one day"
I in turn scoff & reply
"Yes I could. I could live on a ranch. I don't want to work it, just live there"
And he in turn comesback w/
"Um, that's the purpose of living on a ranch, to work it"
Oh that poor man, too many years of heavy lifting & such has left him slightly left of center.
"Bob, if we can afford a ranch, I will live & run the home part & you & the ranch hands will work the ranch. You have 3 strapping young boys, there are your ranch hands"


For some reason he snorted at me & rolled his eyes.
Ha!
I'll show him.




I will turn my little suburban townhouse into a ranch & it will be magnificient.
Now does anyone know how to wrangle some Canadian geese?

Earth



Okay, who remembered yesterday was Earth hour?
Huh?
Did you?
I so didn't
BUT did it count that I was in bed by 8:30 & all lights were off 'cept for the tv?
Tell me that counts for something.


Anyway, Earth Day is fast approaching
SO
I wanna know what are your plans?
Do you have any good ideas to help teach your kids about recycling? Keeping the Earth healthy? I need some ideas for Cheeks.


LMK if you have any ideas!!!

I try to enter a lot of things.
I once read that the more contests you enter, the more you win.
I am finding this to be true.


A couple weeks ago I was checking my "spammy" email.
Lo & Behold I saw something that said "win, prize", words like that.
Normally, I just delete but this time I opened.
Thank God I did.
Feast your eyeballs on this:


I, apparently, won one of the prizes.
A gift box of a few of their products.
Let's check out what was in there.
6 Oil of Olay Rejuviniste Eye Roller things (and yes that is the technical name for them!"

And
A partridge in a pear tree!


Can you believe it?
I have aready given some of my winnings to my mom & sister.
I was so excited to win & then see it show up at my door!!!


Tell me, do you enter contests?
Have you ever won?
What is the coolest thingyou ever won?

Child Labor laws? We don't need no stinkin child labor laws!



We have entered the stage.
The stage where as parents we realize what we had children for.


That's right.
Labor.
No, not the kind where you push him (He was a c-section babe, hello! 11 pounds, 1 ounce, 15mm head....I was not pushing THAT out!).
The kind of labor where you say:
"Cheeks, run upstairs & get mommy her bag"
"Son, get daddy his sneakers"
"Cheeks, you made the spill, get a towel & help clean it up"


It's refreshing.
Really.
I'm thinking of hiring him out.
We could use the extra cash.


I know. I know. It's fleeting.
In a few short years I will have to bribe him to do anything.
I'm not above bribery....remember we have an 11 yo & a 16 yo.



For now, we have a more than eager helper.
And I, as his mother, want to nurture that side of him.
Now where is he? I need the van washed!

Conversations with a 3 year old

Cheeks: "Mommy, what's your favorite color?"
Me: "Pink"
Cheeks: "No it's green!"
Me: "No, it's pink"
Cheeks: "No it's green!"
Me: "No, no, it's pink"
Cheeks: "No, no, it's green!"



Upon seeing his father step out of the shower:
Cheeks while pointing to his father's nether region "Daddy, what are those?"
Daddy: "Those are my testicles."
Cheeks: "No Daddy, you have big balls, I have testicles"
Daddy: "Ok, go explain that to your mother."



And what conversations have you been having with your children lately?

As I write this my 3 yo son is upstairs, having just woken up form a 4 hr nap, screaming his bloody head off. Literally screaming at the top of his lungs.
Why?
Well I refused to give him his binky, which I am trying to break him of.

Then he tells me he peed himself.
I go up there to clean it up & told him to put on the new underwear & pants I got out for him.
Well that threw him into an all out fit.
There he goes.
Screaming some more.
As if someone is gutting him.

This is how it's been all day.
He was in the corner all morning pretty much.
Then went to his room for being rude to my dad.

It's 5:15 & I still have to go to the grocery store & take the Tasmanian devil with me.
Oh, another scream.
Good times.

You know I try to keep this blog pretty upbeat.
I do.
Really.
I just can't do it anymore.

I need a few hours by myself.
Perhaps a day or overnight somewhere.

Im not whining.
Really.

I just want to vent & vent to someone who will listen.
Not decide to tell me "this is your life" or "this is the choice you have made"
No shit!
I do what I do for reasons that are important to me.

I feel like I don't get a break.
I already take an antidepressent...what else is left?

I love my family, I love my children.
I just need a break.
A mental health holiday.

Sorry, didn't mean to bore you all.
LIke I said just needed to vent.

Where have I been?
Did anyone notice?
Ugh.
Well I wasn't racing around.
I was stuck.
Without a working modem.
It decided to die.
Kaput.
Keeled over.
Mysteriously it started to work last night.
Yay!
I am still waiting for a new one to come from Comcast tho.
So since I was gone & really have nothing to write about I thought I would see if any of you have any questions for me.
Anything at all.
Ask away.
I am an open book.
Leave you questions in the comments & I will answer in an upcoming post.

Celtic Woman - Songs from the Heart

Thanks to Team Mom I was able to review the new cd by Celtic Woman: Songs from the Heart.

Can I just say what a fabu cd!?
I am a sucker for pretty much anything Celtic but this cd will wow you even if you aren't.

The women all sing beautifully.

When their voices combine it's like angels.
Sure, that sounds cliche but I am not trying to.
It's truly the only way to describe their voices when blending together.

They do a cover of Sting's "Field's of Gold" & Billy Joel's "Goodnight my Angel". I ama not a big fan of Billy Joel in general but the way Celtic Woman cover his songs has such a new spin on it & is so relaxing to hear.

I listened to this cd in my van on the way home from work. Rush hour traffic usually has me on the edge of my seat but listening to this relaxed me. Wish I was actually in my bathtub surrounded by bubbles and candles. This is definitely a cd for some "me" time or some romantic time with your significant other.

After listening to this cd I can see why the women performed on "Dancing with the Stars". They have a soft yet strong blend to their voices and each woman on her own is amazing. My favorite track is "Amazing Grace", it starts off with bagpipes which always give me shivers down my spine.

The women all take turns singing solo as well as together. Each a cd on their own and I will be buying each one, as a group this cd will definitely be in my playlist everyday! They even have a Christmas cd. Again, another genre of music that I am a sucker for.

Currently they are touring the states. How I wish they were coming to the Philly area but sadly not anytime soon. Otherwise I would have to find a sitter and make Bobster go with me.

Tell me what are you listening to lately? What's on your playlist? Have you heard
Celtic Woman?

At my wits end

My adorable child has turned into the monster from the depths of below.
I don't know what I am doing wrong.


He is good as gold for everyone else.
Me, not so much.


When I say it's a scream fest in the morning ending up with either me in tears or him in his room screaming bloody murder is an understatement.
I wake him up approximately 45 minutes before we need to leave.
He then screams & yells at me for waking him up & cries for his "binky" & "put the covers on me"
I leave him in his room & tell him when he can communicate with me w/o crying he may come out. He will scream at the top of his lungs for the next 15 minutes or so.


When something frustrates him (i.e. getting dressed, telling me to move the table so he can eat, etx) he will scream & yell. I ask him to tell me what is the matter but this only makes his get louder & tell me to "Go away" which gets him in trouble.


He is acting up when I take him to restaurants & it's very embarrassing. I am stopping doing that.


I am taking his prize possesions away for periods of time or other privelages.


If I grab him to take him into his room he kicks his legs so hard that I am bruised on my legs or wails his arms around so much that I get slapped & my hair gets pulled.


He's a wonderful little boy but I a can't take it anymore.
It's every morning.
It's almost every night.


If he doesn't get his way, it's Hell to pay.
We aren't the type of parents that give him anything.


Short of adopting him out til he's 18 or upping my meds I am just unsure where to turn.
I have followed tons of advice on how to discipline so if you have anything let me know & I will give it a go.


TIA

Mominatrix by Kristen Chase


Ever been to the Sahara Desert? Feel like there are cowebs where other things should be? While my dry spell is a result of being in different countries at the current time I could not pass up the following book to read.


This month I participated in the Silicone Valley Moms Blog Book Club, I am a member of the NJ Mom Blogs <~~~~~~~~~~ link over there. This month the book was Mominatrix's Guide to Sex: A No Surrender Advice Book for Naughty Moms by Kristen Chase.


I figured I would give it a try because who couldn't use a little advice for some spice in the bedroom. Disappointment is an understatement. Kristen is witty, informative, has definitely done her research and offers sage advice. The only problem for me was this book seemed geared towards parents of new babies. My baby is 3.


While having a c-section with my little 11 pounder, I didn't need to read about how I can buy sexy underwear that will help cover the scar & curtail some of the weeping. To use an old cliche: Been there, done that. Actually a weeping c-section scar is not a deterrent for my husband...just keepin it real!


Kristen talks about taking care of your "area" (this is a family blog so I will try to use many euphanisms) before embarking on first time post baby sex. I had always thought this was common sense and one of the first things woman did after not being able to see the "area" for the better part of 4 months. Some women wax (um, OUCH!), some shave, some trim but all should take care and I must admit while preggers this area did go untames BUT I did try to sway my sister into helping me with it but no matter what type of bribe I gave her or promised gift she told me she had to draw the line somewhere. Hmph!


She suggests how to set the mood, how to get in the mood, how to stay in the mood. Chase offers websites to find adult toys, porn and lingerie. She gives little tips through out and definitely doesn't hold back when telling it like it is.


My favorite chapter in Mominatrix is where she addresses the daddies. The one tip to get me in the mood that I will be passing onto the Bobster is for the daddy to help out with the chores. Nothing gets me more excited then to have Bobster do the dishes and clean up the kitchen. Man! I will show my appreciation BIG TIME after that. Nothing sexier than a man elbow deep in the suds.


Overall the book isn't aimed towards those of us with "older" children. Kristen addresses us and tells how to handle being "walked" in on. I have already had to deal with this and let me just say I never saw Bobster move so fast in his life...it was if lighting struck.


If you are the mom of a newborn or infant, definetly check it out. For those with a bit older kids, use your imagination and all is good. You will for sure get a chuckle out of some of her tips and suggestions. You may even find decide to try some of the situations she puts out there. I plan too. What they are I will not tell...again, family blog!

Tell me, are you a Mominatrix.

Disclosure: I received this book free as being part of the Silicone Valley Moms Blog book club.

Climbing the walls!

The Delaware Valley is having it's 3rd snow storm in a week.
Only 1-2 inches expected for our area, so that's a breeze compared to what we've gotten
BUT
Someone is tired of being cooped up that he's taken to climbing the walls!


I knew it would come sooner than later.

How do you like the trash bag covering up the a/c unit?
Classy, huh?
I like to call it "Early American White Trash!"
One would think I would just take it out of the window & store it for the winter.
Nah.
It keeps the hope alive that it will be warm again.
Well, that & the fact that I have zilch storage in this chateau.

So tell me, what do you do to keep the kids busy when they are cooped up.
I will feature the best idea in an upcoming blog post with a link to your blog (if you have one) or a link to your facebook (if you want)
Hit me with your best ideas!!!

Happy Valentines Day


From my little cupid (whose not so little anymore)

Saturday, February 13, 2010

Where have I been???

The Delaware Valley got hit with 2 Nor'easters, days apart.

Dump a total of about 40 inches on this area.

I had a lot to shovel.

My neighbor did his side of the steps, but left mine for me to do.
I thought he might "man up" & help me but no luck.


Cheeks is lovin the snow.
I don't mind it but where I live doesn't do that great of a job at snow removal so I pretty much bring it into the house every time I leave & come home.
Sigh.
It could be worse I suppose.


What is going on in your neck of the woods?

Eating a cupcake, watching Celeb Fit Club....

Sure, sure, probably not the best snack for a chubby girl to eat while watching hasbeen/wanna be celebs try to lose weight on a reality show
BUT
I baked them & didn't want them to get stale.

Ok, ok.
Let's see whose on this season:


Who do I spy with my little eye?

Is that Sebastian Bach from Skid Row?
Why, yes, yes it is.
He's still sort of hot.
Looks like he needs a good shower
BUT
Really take my opinion lightly on that b/c I have the hots for Kid Rock.


I digress.


Next up...Bobby Brown.
Ick.
What a disgusting human being.
Really.
He's gross.


Of course, my fav so far, is the winner of Season One of Project Runway.
Love him!
He has personality & spunk.
Plus he's there to help himself.
Hello!
Not for the $$ but for him.


Then we have Nicole Eggert.
Really.
She's 130 & 5'2.
A bit overweight but I would kill to see those numbers.


There is some girl from High School Musical & another reality show chic from The Bad Girls club.
I can't stand her.
The Bad Girls club girl.
Already with the attitude.
Lose it already!
You signed up for it.
Did you think Harvey was going to hand you a down feather pillow & tell you take it easy while some cabana boy peels you grapes & you get a mani-pedi!?
Wait, that's my fantasy.


There is Shar Jackson.
I feel bad for her.
Not for the whole Brit-Kev thing
BUT
Like she said...she has been a staple in the tabloids.
Time for girly to get her life back!
You go Shar, you go!


That leaves us with Kevin Federline.
Saw what you want about him
BUT
I think he's a decent guy.
He's never once trashed Shar or Brit.
Not that I know of.
And he seems like a decent dad.
I would like to see him succeed.
He's not a bad looking guy.


Tell me, do you watch?
Whose your fav so far?


And for all of us in the Delaware Valley....whose ready for another freakin blizzard!
Ugh!

Wouldn't these be cool to see at a 4th of July spectacular??!!??
Or on some "Super Sweet 16" show?
Oh you know it would.

Now we have beautiful Pyrex dishes.
These remind me of my Nana & Poppy 'cept they didn't have the pink.
I would love to have the pink!

How beautius McDavis is this?
Could you imagine walking up to this?
Reminds me of the mansions in Newport, RI.
Have any of you ever been?


Now this is really about the dog

BUT how much cuter is the dog w/ pink glasses!!!



Finally, couldn't you see yourself cruising down the shore in this puppy?
I love PINK!
What's your color inspiration???

First PSA for 2010

It's time readers.
For your first official PSA of the new year.

This PSA can not come a moment too soon.
Let me say this.
It's February.
The Groundhog has seen his freakin shadow.
The Presidents are getting ready for their sales birthdays.
And
The day to celebrate "love" is quickly approaching.
So if your yard looks like this:

You may want to change out the decor to something like this:

That's right.
Here it is the 2nd month of the New Year & people still have Christmas decorations up.
This worries me.
Perhaps they aren't prepared to let go.
Or they just figure they will be early for next week.

Well either way, please, please take it down.

You really don't want to be wearing your Easter bonnet while posing next to your one branch Christmas tree come April, do you?

Thanks!

Frank, Frank, Frank

Let me introduce you to my new guilty pleasure.
This is Frank.
Frank the Entertainer.


As in the VH1 reality show: Frank the Entertainer, A Basement Affair.

Can I just say I love this show!?

Frank is originally a contestant on I Love New York 2.
He didn't win.
He went on to some Love of Money shows.
Then...
BAM!
He got his own show.


And I am glad he did!

First of all, he's easy on the eyes.
Sure, he's only 31 & looks older
BUT
Look at that bod!

He has personality too.
Funny.

On his show the contestants live in his house, with his parents.
He lives in their basement.
His mother is your typical New York mom.
Dyed red hair...more burgandy.
His father just sits back & lets the mother do most of the talking.
Think Marie Barone from "Everybody loves Raymond"


I already have my fav contestant.
Annie.
I want her to win b/c she is just adorable.
In a wholesome way
&
Frank seems to like her.

So tell me, are you watching?
What's your guilty pleasure tv show?

Late!
