Halloween 2010 Has Come to an End

Halloween 2010 has come.
Has saw.
Has conquered.


I have one tired Mittens upstairs.


About 2pm we headed out.
Look at him.
Raring to go!

An hour later, Mittens asked if we could head home because he was done TOT & wanted to go home to have a treat.

So we headed home & check out the loot.

He chose the Nerds Rope, which he was eating a piece of when I took this pic.
A piece.
No way was I letting him eat the whole rope.
Oiy ve!

He is now sleeping off the fun of TOT, the lateness of a Halloween party last night & the crash of a sugar high.

How was your Halloween 2010?

Introducing Mittens

Ever hear of the movie Bolt?
From Disney.
The main characters are the dog, Bolt, and the cat, Mittens.
Mittens is a bit of a smart aleck.

You can see the superior look on her face, can't you?
I'll give you 3 guesses who is obsessed with Mittens, first 2 guesses do not count.
Oh that's right.
Cheeks.
So Cheeks has decided he wants to be Mittens for Halloween.
I jumped on that decision like white on rice!!! 
Give it to me, k? Next year he's probably going to want to be a bloody vampire or something.  I got to take what I can.


Well I got the outfit, tail, ears & nose.
My girlfriend at work put her mad sewing skills to work & created his costume for me.


Introducing Mittens!

Bad kitty!

Shake your tail feather!

Fierce!

I absolutely adore it!
He, of course, is smitten with the Mittens costume.
I really had to pry it off of him.
He even got down on all fours & meowed.
Do you think when he's 17 he's going to kill me for this post?
We shall see.


What is your little one going as this year?

Just cause I'm nosey

I would love to know more about my readers.
My loyal blog followers & my lets visit every now & then readers & my OMG I just found this blog reader.


So I have created a little survey.


Simple really.


Please answer the following questions.
I will keep the answers confidential & to be honest I didn't ask for email or names so I will have no idea who you are anyway. Ha!





So please let me know about you!

I'm hot!

Yep.
I'm hot.
Like sweating hot.
Like this hot:

Credit

Did you think I meant another kind of hot?
Please.
I'm not that vain, Victoria's Secret is safe with me. I'll never get to tell it with my figure.


Sorry, off topic.
I mean I am hot.
All the time.
At work I break out in head sweats.
At home, if I sit still my feet will get so hot and so will my legs.
I have taken to sitting with the window open, right in front of it.


Lately, even with the cooler air settling in around South Jersey, I am still tempted to put my a/c on in the minivan. If I did, I'd probably have a Cheeksicle in the back sit. Poor kid, he hates it if it's under 70.


Even at night, I keep the ceiling fan in the bedroom on high, leave the sheets off & relish in the cool breeze. I was almost tempted to put the a/c on the other night but again, Cheeksicle kept me from doing it.


I'm only 40 & a young 40 at that. Could it be pre-menopause?
I say yes.
Think about it, I'm not using my womanly parts for anything right now.
Don't plan to in the future either.
There is no womb in the inn, kwim?


Has anyone started this young?
Any of you?
Please let me know.


Seriously, I'm ready to get rid of it.
Heavenly Father blessed me with at 13...that's long enough for me.


Ciao!

Like nails on a chalk board

Is cutting a bag for me.
Yep.

Do you know what I mean?
I'm talking about when you get down to a little bit of food in the bag, instead of just sticking your hand in or pouring it into a bowl or on a napkin, you cut the bag & then supposedly have easier access to the stuff in the bag.

O.
M.
G.
!
That drives me nuts.  I actually feel the little hairs on my neck stand up when I see that.

Why would you do that to that innocent bag?
I don't want to hear it's so your arm doesn't get crumbs etc on it.
Dump it out on a plate, napkin,, into a bowl.
Just what ever you do, for the love of God, do not cut the bag.
I'm begging you.

Tell me, what is your thing.
Please tell me you have something funky so I don't feel like the odd man out.

Ciao!

Meghan's Mindless Mutterings: Reviews & Giveaways

Out of the mouths of babes

Scene: Laying in bed, rubbing Cheeks back.  I stop rubbing Cheeks back.

Cheeks: Mommy, you can still rub my back.
Mommy: Oh?
Cheeks: I would never say no.

I love this boy!

Is it any wonder why I'm tired?

Just a typical day 'round these here parts.
Of course, since it was probably the most beautiful day of the fall season this year we took the jumping outdoors.

BTW, got a camera. 
Woot!
Woot!

This child will jump off of anything, from anything, over anything.
I see stunt man in his future.
He's jumped & stretched since the womb.

Full of energy.
From the minute he wakes, til he goes to bed.
The statement is true.
Mother's of boys work from son up til son down.
Whew!
I need tons of caffeine when it's just he & I.

I love my boy!
Wouldn't trade him, slip him a Benadryl every now & then, sure, but definitely not trade him.
Kidding on the Benny people!
I'll just duct tape him to bed.

Mirror, mirror on the wall

Hi.
My name is Meghan
&
I am a reality tv show addict.

It's true.
Addicted.
Not to like Big Brother or Survivor but the class shows, like: Jersey Shore (GTL!), Say Yes to the Dress, Hoarders & Billy the Exterminator.

Let's take a quick peek at good ole' Billy.

I have one simple question:
Do you think he knows what his hair looks like?
He is the nicest guy, at least he appears that way on tv
BUT
That hair!

Do you think he wakes up, does his hair, looks in the mirror & says
"Damn! I look good!"
If he does, I want the same mirror.

What do you all think?
Like I said, he's a nice guy
BUT
Really, he could use the Nana's help.  She's a hairdresser you know.

Stream of Conciousness

You really have to thank James Joyce for creating this style of writing.
I would tlhank him but as an English major in college I read to much Joyce & wanted to slit my wrists w/ a butter knife.
Hated it!

So it's officially October.
Break out the pumpkins!

I love my little pumpkin.
Wait til you find out what he's going to be this year.
His choice.
I swear.
For those that follow me on Facebook you may already know.
We picked up his costume today...well some of it.
I have to get the actual outfit & some felt still.

Would have gotten it at Walmart today
BUT
I left.
In disgust.
They didn't have anything I went for.

Here's what I've been wondering....
Do you ever feel like your teeth are wearing sweaters?
Don't get me wrong.
I brush.
Sometimes, at random times during the day, my teeth will feel like they are wearing sweaters.
Weird eh?

Not as weird as Sister Wives eh?
Hows that for a segway.
I am watching the show & I am thinking are you kidding me?
First, let me say this, I am very happy that the guy explained that he is part of the Fundamentalist Mormons & not the Main Stream Mormons.
I always get someone who thinks it's funny to ask how many wives my dad has.
Like I've never heard it before.
Then they follow it up with do you know Donny & Marie?
Why yes.
Every Sunday my dad & my 8 mom's get together with the Osmonds for a hoe-down.
Gimme a break.
Not all Mormons know each other
&
Polygamy has been outlawed in the church for eons.

Now here is where I might get in trouble.
While I do not believe in it, and while I understand it's wrong, let them be.
They aren't harming anyone & legally he's only married to one woman.
What's the diff btwn that & being married to one & having an "open" marriage.
Again, I believe in none of that so no flames please.

It's sort of like the Duggars.
Would I want 19 children?
No.
Do I care that they have 19?
Heck no, the more the merrier, for them.
They are not relying on the govn't for their income, their children are well fed, well taken cared of, polite & good members of society.

Just my opinions on these important matters in society today.
I am a wealth of opinions.  Ha.

So lets make this clear....I believe in one man, one wife.
I believe in letting people have as many kids as they wish if they can take care of them.
I have some other beliefs but won't discuss here.

You can ask me my opinion, I will let you know.
Just know it's my opinion, doesn't make it right or wrong.
Right?

Let the games begin!
