better late then never

So once again a short while has gone by since my last blog. Lets see what has happened since then... not sure as I don't remember when I blogged last. was it before Todd's surgery or after? I'm actually only blogging now cause I'm super bored as I can't sleep. Ok, actually I did sleep for like forty five minutes then something woke me up. not even sure what it was, but that was all she wrote for my nights sleep. Now I'm not even feeling tired, just really bored. It's too quiet in my house. Ok. enough of the fake attempt to blog. When I figure out what I haven't blogged about lately maybe I will do it. Or maybe not. :-)

lookey there...

one week two blog posts! I am on a roll I tell you.

Today we went and had a wienie roast in the canyon for boobers upcoming birthday. We thought it was going to pour on us but the weather was nice. We should do that more often it was fun to go up to the canyon for a spell. Boober was cranky but I guess they had a long day and it probably didn't help that the dog they found at the park a few days ago locked the truck doors while it AND the keys were in the truck! :-0

Yesterday Tia and I went school shopping with one of her friends. It was quite fun but seriously four malls in one day is at least one mall to many :-) Tia bought me lunch at Panda though YUM and she got most of her school shopping finished. So now we just have Colt. I'm taking Colt shopping in a couple of weeks and he has already told me he can have all his shopping done in two single stores . Boys are sooooo much easier then girls.

Well that's it for now. ta ta all

another day in the fantastical journey called life...

If only it was really as exciting as that title leads us all to believe!

So, ummm there is a slight chance it has yet again been a few days since I updated. I could say I'm going to do better but there is a very good chance I will not, so I shant say it and just continue this post.

Not a whole lot is going on in our world. Todd is once again on medical leave after having his hip scoped and the joint reshaped to what is more normal. I'm really hoping the doctor will let him go back to work after his appointment next week. Even if it will only be for two weeks and then he will be back on medical leave for his knee replacement, it will be oh so nice to have that one real paycheck.

My job is still a go... ha ha ha. I can't remember when I blogged last, but 6 weeks or so ago I got a new position at work and am now the housekeeping supervisor and also the Materials Manger. So I am in charge of all the cleaning of the building and buying the supplies. Its been quite fun, some days frustrating as I swear it was chaotic but its coming around and hey I almost never have to clean toilets now! mwah ha ha

I am horseless... I do not like being horseless... I am going to have to rectify my whole horseless situation!

We still have goats though. Only about 20 but I cut back as far as I could stand. Tia was amazed I went through with the cutbacks last week. We also have goats, chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, pigs, cattle, dogs, turtles and a bearded dragon still. We need a few cats. not sure what happened to all the wild cats but they've disappeared.

Winter is approaching and I'm so not ready. I had a huge list of things to get done and almost nothing has.. well the great goat cutback and getting Colt's window replaced happened. Still need to replace Tia's for sure before winter. would love to do the rest but somehow there is always a money issue.

ok, so I blogged a rambling bunch of tripe. maybe tomorrow I'll post something with substance... or not ;-)

Blah...

today is one of those days. Everyone keeps bugging the shit out of me and I keep telling them I'm fine. When what I really want to tell them is F.O.C.U.S. people Focus. But seriously here's a little vocabulary according to me... "I'm fine" = "leave me the hell alone" there now that we understand each other life can go on. speaking of life, every wonder whats the point? I do. I have a shitty dead end job, no brighter future anywhere in sight. I go home to a freakin slum of a house that everyone seems quite content to waller in filth in. When it gets half way cleaned it takes about half a day before you don't even know it was even attempted. trying to get help with other stuff is about a joke, I don't even think its worth listening to all the bitching and moaning to try anymore. seriously whats the point.

Holy crap on a doorknob!

it is almost the end of April and whilst I have contemplated writing on this thing I have never gotten around to it. I must be more diligent. so here is a quick rundown on what has been going on at the Petersen Palace (HAHAHAHHA Palace! hahahahaha)

ummm January... not sure. February... uhhh can't remember March... Todd had his knee scoped. we found out its crap just like the other but we're not sure what is going to be done about it yet because... April- We saw a new orthopedic surgeon that the other one referred us to. This Dr specializes in scoping hips. which apparently is NOT a very common procedure but he does it alot. Some time the end of June first of July Todd will undergo surgery again they are going to scope his hip and shave the bone off the ball of the joint to hopefully make it round so that it will work better. Hopefully its not in worse condition and this will make it better. at least for now. we have no delusions that eventually the hip and knee wont have to be totally replaced, but a little time would be nice. Lets see what else.. the brown truck died! :-0 hopefully its a easy fix, it has to see the dr on monday. The blue truck needs to have some repairs to pass inspection, but so far the car is fine. Work is work. I still really like working where I work, just not neccesarily doing what I do at work.

My children are getting old! Saturday Tia and I are going to a open house at the University of Utah as that is where she's contemplating going. One more year of high school and she will officially be an adult. Not so sure I'm ready for that. Next month Colt will be 16. I really am not sure where the time has gone.

Well that's all for now, perhaps I will start writing more often... or I might be back in 3 or 4 months! :-)
