The Outback

OMG please don't go to the Outback. I think it was the worst place that I have ever eaten. Everything and I mean everything was spicy. It was totally gross. I hate really spicy food and even their kids cheeseburgers had spice on them. It was totally disgusting. I ordered a small side ceasar salad in the beginning and the dressing was hot...not hot like warm..but hot like spicy...I have NEVER eaten a ceasar dressing that was spicy...I am totally disgusted with the whole experience and would steer anyone away from eating there! Enjoy your coffee..just not at the Outback!

The bike ride from hell

I am on a mission to fight the plump body that I have been living in. I guess people say that to do this I need to some form of exercise (go figure)....My friend and I have been walking at least five days a week 2.4 miles a day! I know don't applaud it is just wonderful...We have been getting a little worn out on the walking though and decided the other night to ride bikes. We leave near the I&M canal which is what we call the tote path...so at around 7:20 we decide to start our bike ride. Now keep in mind that I am a big girl....riding a bike is a definite workout for me...even if its just around the block. The friend says..."lets just ride 20 minutes one way and then we will turn around and come back." Alright was she trying to kill me...I was ready to turn around when she said that it had only been six minutes. I thought that I was going to die! We are riding the grandma seat bikes sooo at this point my butt isn't really hurting...but that joy was still to come. We kept riding ...and riding ..and riding...I felt like 20 minutes was never coming....so friend says...i think we are almost to the next town...let's keep going...was she smoking crack...I felt like my heart was going to beat out of my chest and I still had to turn around and go home....HELL No i didn't want to keep going...but she is a persistant friend..and I am stupid..sooo I followed her...we made it to the next town in 40 minutes. Then I needed to rest for a bit....my ass was pounding...my heart was pounding....my legs were pounding...I wanted to kill her! So it's about 8:10 at this point and we rest for like five minutes and start to head back and at this point I am thinking that we are never going to make it back before dark. The tote path isn't the most friendly area...especially when it's starting to get dark (and if you remember from my useless facts ..I am afraid of the dark!) So...we begin on our journey back home. I am trying to peddle so fast but my body is just screaming for help....It's getting darker and darker...and there are so many bugs out..being right next to the canal...the insects were awful...I bet I ate about 1lb of nats..gross...we had passed a landmark to let us know that we were almost to the end of the path....I just started peddling...stopped talking and peddled my plump ass off...One i was tired and felt like croaking...second it was getting dark and I was getting a tad freaked out. We finally saw the end and I felt like Rocky after making it to the top of the stairs! We stopped real quick and looked at the map board to see how far we actually rode. It was 11 MILES! OMG! I haven't rode a bike in years....and before that it was probably around the block..and i just rode 11 miles! No wonder I can't feel my ass or my legs. I guess the battle of the plumpness is alot harder than all those books I have been reading make it sound...you figure you actually have to work and feel the burn...well...maybe I will take another bike ride soon...around the block sounds good! Enjoy your coffee.

The friendship trio

Friends...we all have them..good friends..close friends...acquintances...fake friends...so many friends. It's crazy the different levels woman can have friendships on! I love all my friends in sooo many different ways. I would say that right now at this point in my life I have three great friends! I think that having a few close friends is sooo much better than have lots that are not so close. I know cliche but it's a very good statement. The funny thing is that all three of them are SO extremely different...it's kind of funny that I get along with all of them so well ..but in extremely different ways. The first one...we will name her....Spunky...she is a spit fire...we have been friends longer than i can remember and I love her like a sister....She's the type of friend that you get drunk with ...laugh with....tell everything to....and experience the shitty aspects of life with! We tend to talk really fast to each other and can completely grasp what the other one is saying...sometimes we don't even need to really "say" what we mean(in other words we talk code in front of husband and kids) and the other one always gets what the other one is saying. We can get on the phone and talk about absolutely nothing (and i mean nothing..like watch the same show when we are on the phone and talk about it) but we have a great time doing it...She's a treasured friend and definitely one of kind...Onto the next friend..we can call her.... Tommy Girl...which is just exactly what she is :) On the surface you would think that we are nothing alike...she is sort of reserved...loves name brands....very together and proper....(well to most people ..lol) but when you really get to know her she is so much fun! Her and I think exactly the same most of the time....we can go from having a very deep serious conversation to laughing about something all within an hour's time. I love that about our friendship...we can share everything and we enjoy each others company without even doing anything special. Tommy girl has a very big heart...sometimes she doesn't always let people see it but she is one of the most caring people i know. And i just love that about her....we share so many special moments and we cherish alot of the same things in life. She is a great woman and I am honored to be one of her friends. Now onto friend number three ..let's call her.....Techno ....(and no this name has nothing to do with technology..because funny enough i think technology frustrates her!) She just loves techno type music... even though to me it's the weirdest type of music...she hears it and just starts a boppin and dancin'...she's crazy...We became friends by fate...she moved into the house next door to me a few years ago...and we have been friends ever since but we are growing closer everyday i think. I just love talking to her...we have lots of coffee together...lots of talks about everything and anything and we love every minute of it...I'm the one she's calls when she needs her hair dyed...or someone to watch her dog...and I call her for just about anything else..from borrowing some cooking oil to asking her to watch my kids for a bit...we have the convienece of living close...but we have the will to have a friendship...and I love it...she's so full of energy...and she's always their to listen...(oh and she will give her opinoin..but she wouldn't be herself with out it)..she is a wonderful mother and wife...she gives a great example to others and i admire her for that...not only can her and i get together and have a great time..we can have the whole families together and the fun just continues...it's great to have her so close!

I am a person that cherishes my friendships and I try to work very hard at making them great! There are many times that I don't really like one or all of them...for one reason or another...but that's what friendship is all about...I love my friends...all in so many different ways. I am blessed to have them in my life and I hope they all know how much they mean to me. Everyone should have at least one close friend to laugh and cry with...it makes life so much more enjoyable. Enjoy your coffee!

Thankful

I have had a interesting weekend (well not really but I have to dream that it was interesting...) Some things have been brought to my attention this weekend that made me realize that my life is pretty wonderful! If you knew me at all you would realize that ..that statement doesn't seem completely true..but it is! I have a wonderful husband (as good as they come) three great kids (Rose is a little mouthy....Robert is a little monster...and AnnMarie is a little cranky) but, they are healthy and they are here! I have a roof over my head...and can provide food for my family...well most of the time..even it's is grilled cheese all the time. Try and think for a moment when you are having a really shit ass day, that you aren't homeless.....you have a home...that you aren't hungry...you have food to eat....that you aren't alone..you have a family and friends around. There are tons ...make that millions of people out there that don't have any of those things. ...people right in this area....we may forget about it or be so caught up in our own lives that we don't see it but they are there....I just want everyone today ...tomorrow...or sometime in the very near future...to be THANKFUL..for what they have...and don't complain about the things they don't have ..even the littlest things can be appreciated. It's not important that you don't drive a fancy car...or live in a 500,000 house or get that new toy that you want...the important things are the ones that we forget about ...so take your time and remember those wonderful things that make like so absolutely worth living! OH....and be thankful for coffee cause without it we would have lots of crabby ass woman out there! :)

Crabby

Is there a reason why when you are crabby everyone in the known world needs to ask you .."what's wrong." If anyone had a flippin clue they would know by now when I am pissed off...angry...crabby...etc...just leave me the hell alone! I obviously don't want to talk about it or I would have. People just have the need to keep asking...what's wrong....is something the matter...are you okay....OMG just shut(l0ts of swear words) UP! My life lately I guess you say is some sort of emotional roller coaster and some days I just don't handle it as well and I do other days....is there anything wrong with this? NO! I am human and don't always want to *share* my feelings with others....I guess if I talk about them I have to deal with them (lol) ...not really I do deal with them just on my own level. I however think that I have very good reasons to have bad days...they hubby(he's a union worker) has been laid off for a year now...and we have three kids under the age of 3 1/2....We added the littlest one (AnnMarie) to the mix while he was not working...not really on purpose ( but I guess God knows what he is doing). Soooo.. just that is enough to drive anyone crazy...and I feel that my hubby and I are handling the whole situation pretty well...although there are days when we want to kill each other....It just isn't meant to be to have married couples TOGETHER ALL THE TIME! Some days it puts a strain on our marriage I think and it's no ones fault but it's there...we bite each others heads off for no reason (well...okay somtimes I have good reasons..but who's really keeping score) ....we pick fights just for some entertainment! I guess I could look at the good side...we have lots of family time...he's great with the kids...and don't forget all the afternoon sex (when the kids are napping) ...As I am sure all you woman can imagine...it takes some getting used to ...our normal homelife schedule has been interuppted for over a year now and some days its just a handful...I guess *today* is one of the times I actually wanted to share my feelings (aren't those of you reading this lucky)...my family is wonderful...my kids are awesome...and my hubby....he's the best (for dealing with me and our children) ..Life just really sucks ass sometimes! (See the outcome of an early morning blog and absolutely no coffee yet!)

A Horny husband

Full of coffee.....and full of life this morning...boy aren't you lucky! It's better than yesterday I guess that's what happens when there is no coffee consumed and I have a full to-do list :) I however do have a complaint....my husband...of course..is wonderful .charming...lovely...great father..blah blah blah...you know all those good qualities. BUT (you knew it was coming) he always decides that he wants to get all hot and frisky at the worst times! As we all know women get periods...and i just happen to have mine (i know gross...stop making that face..you all get them) and of course this is the day that he picks to want to play horny husband....I mean really...out of the whole month...he picks the one day that it's just not going to happen...! Not to mention that I am trying to start dinner...Let's set the scene for you...

It's about 4:00pm yesterday....in my kitchen ..I am at the counter starting to get things ready for dinner..in walks hubby...

Hubby...kissing the back of my neck.....starting to have wandering hands...

Me...thinking what is he insane he knows he can't go anywhere with this.....*but of course I am secretly loving it at the same time*

Hubby...turns me around and starts to kiss me like we are high school teenagers at a make out party....more wandering hands.....

Me....sort of annoyed ..sort of turned on..getting all hot and bothered...and a little pissed off at the same time.

Hubby....kissing down the neck..hands ever so wandering...hands moving to my pants button....

Me..."HELLO! what are you retarded you know this isn't going anywhere I am on my period!"

Hubby....yah i know but i am "horny"

Me...Well...then alright....now that I am aware that "YOU" (i hope you sense the sarcasm) are horny then just go right ahead....right you idiot....i mean how could i be soooo insensitive!

He laughs and walks out of the kitchen..i continue on with what i was doing...but now I am horny and definitely pissed off that nothing is going to come of it....was this his plan....it's seems as though he has got me all worked up now and he has had his fun.....stupid men...it's always all about them isn't it! Just wait his time is coming and I can make him horny as hell...wanting it more than he can stand....and then ...at the right moment..i will roll over and go to sleep leaving him all hot and bothered..wanting more and not going to get it(who am i kidding...he may not get it from me..but his hand will do)ugh...men...Once again just another reason being a woman sometimes sucks ass!

Pleasantly Plump

Well here comes a rant....I haven't had ANY coffee today (I was out of creamer)! As you can imagine starting off the day to no coffee and lots of things to do and being on my freakin' period..didn't help anyone! I feel like a freakin elephant today ...I must be carrying enough water weight to quench the thirst of a small sports team. It's just insane! Why on earth did God decide to make the woman have all the flippin fun....couldn't he give men just one little thing to deal with (big deal they have to pee standing up!) ..there should be something at least a little painful or annoying they have to go through! Ugh! Well....you will come to find out from reading my blogs that I am a pleasantly plump girl...but, I am learning to come to terms with my plumpness! Well...okay....that was sort of a fib...I'd like to think that I have come to terms with it...but that is just something that I tell myself so I think it's okay. I have been trying to walk and get some exercise in daily and it seems to be helping (a little). BUT I guess that I just like food to much! I mean really is it fair to deprive myself of the things that every woman loves...chocolate...ice cream...etc.. you get the picture. And especially at this time of the month I feel like all I want to do it EAT! For instance today I was a nice mommy and took Rose to "donalds" (that's mcdonalds to you that don't have kids) and I thought okay I will get one of their yummy salads...who am I freakin' kidding...I went in and ordered a BIG MAC and fries...who on earth can get a salad...I will tell you who...no one! I tried to coax my brain into the salad even before I get there and it obviously didn't work there was no coaxing...not even one little bit...this crazy woman had to just have a big mac. You want to hear the real icing on the cake....the big mac sucked... it was awful....definitely the worst sandwich I have ever had there...what was that God's way of saying...ha ha you should have eaten the salad dumbass! Well thanks alot! I added more calories to my fat ass and didn't even appreciate it!

Okay I feel better now...I have ranted about my plumpness! It took a load off my chest (well not really those things are bigger than you can imagine), but at least I feel better!
Let's hope tomorrow I get some coffee or it's going to be a serious issue!

Welcome!

Ok...my first post...what in the hell do I say? Do I tell you about me (why no one really cares), but since when do i care about what other people think. My name is Mrs. Jo (obviously not my real name) I am a stay at home mom currently with three kids : Rose 3 1/2, Robert 2, and AnnMarie is 2 months. Oh btw I said "currently with three kids" like it is going to change or something...my husband of 6 years has made it quite apparent that there will be no more additions to this family, so i guess that three kids is final! I push them out... who in the hell is he to say that there is not going to be anymore...oh I guess i shouldn't get sidetracked( I could go on forever)...we can talk more about that at a later time. Where was i? Oh I also have a golden retriever, Oliver, he is a beast and a cat (that we all hate but had to take in ) Angel. My family and friends are very important to me and is my Lord and Savior , Jesus Christ! I am told that I am a perfect canidate for this blogging world..but only time will tell. Everyone keeps saying you have a great personality for it (is that supposed to be a compliament...the jury is still out on that one). I try to always be high on life but some days present a real struggle with that especially when I am running low on coffee *hint to the title*. I will do my best to make you laugh , maybe cry, and sometimes smile...scouts honor (not that I was a scout..but it seemed appropriate). Just to get a better feel of who I am here is a list of some unimportant things about me *smile*:

1. I am 5'8" and very pleasantly plump
2. I hate replacing the toliet paper roll
3. I love to watch people (everywhere)
4. I gossip ..too much ..but i just can't help it!
5. I hug my kids everyday and tell them i love them
6. I hate working (i mean a real job...it takes me away from the things i love)
7. My home phone plays a song when it rings ...it's always throwing people off
8. I pick my nose (just can't help myself)
9. I love rain and thunderstorms , they are so relaxing
10. I LOVE to clean the bathroom (and I use my hand and a rag to clean the toliet..grosses some people out...but that's the best way to clean)
11. I love Betty Boop ..she has an awesome body
12. I am afraid of the dark....COMPLETELY ( I am a huge baby)
13. I LOVE to color
14. I am very sarcastic ( i just can't control it)
15. I love to sit in recliners :)

So now that you know more about me (although it's absolutely irrelevant) , you will have a better idea of who I am. Keep in mind men I know those items listed make me sooo completely appealing to you...but keep your self in check I am taken...I know hard to beleive a catch like me is already been taken..but when it's this good....OMG...i am laughing so hard right now who the hell am I kidding...my husband is crazy and felt bad for me so he thought he would marry me! There will be more to come so stay tuned and pray that I have my coffee before I decided to post!
