The 6th Day of My Captivity

Monday…

It is the 6 day of my unplanned captivity

The kids (The Boy &The Girl) are home from school again- Presidents Day

The Boy thought he got off of school for Valentines.... what are they teaching in school?

They are complaining they want to eat but I have nothing in the house according to them..just nothing they want to eat.

Ask The Boy if he finish his home work…he actually says yes….today might be a good day.

They have eaten non stop over the last 6 days… ( what is with kids when they are stuck in house

I need coffee…

I forgot to order oil…

Nothing like a hot shower to cold air when you realize you forgot to order oil….my new found plan of negotiating the price of oil and not get taken by "the man"… yea "the man" is in a warm house…who is the smart one now?

Sent The Girl up to take a shower.

Thank you wood burning stove you heat my house- in this time of forgetfulness

I need coffee..

Fire wood needs to be brought in from the outside. Sent the boy out to do "manly thing" of bring it to the house. It will make him strong!

The Girl in the shower…she is singing, top of her lungs, wait till she gets out…burrr

Grundy The Dog hates the cold and had decided laying against the stove is the best option…later I will be going to the vet since he will burn himself.

The Boy just came in and said they are too heavy he got one piece of wood

I need coffee

Sent The Boy back outside for more wood

The Girl comes downstairs with same clothes…and undies but wet head and  the concept of clean clothes escapes these kids this weekend…sent her back up stairs to change.

The Boy just came back in said he is done.. I ask how much wood you get …He says "2 pieces" I say 2 more he says that is all I got"

The Girl comes down with a short sleeve shirt on…

Off to blow dry hair and find long sleeve shirt for The Girl.

Still have not made coffee


 
It is 9:30 am 23hrs to freedom… "they" said their might be snow tonight if so send Help..or coffee preferably Starbucks


 

Lets Play Fort!

When I was a kid, everyone on the neighborhood played fort. The would make the fort out of lined up rocks in the dirty in my neighbors Dawn Balnicki's backyard there was about 10 of us... Everyone had job teacher, cook. Dawn and my sister ruled over the villagers. Brian Gerhardt and I were the funeral (undertakers) we would scrape all the dead animals off the road and give them a proper burial all the kids would attend. (yuk!) I was an animal lover from way back. I look back and remember this as a really fun time in my childhood dead birds and all.

I think my one of my teepees would have been way cooler then the rocks. Because we could set up out shanty town any where.

Just listed this one and more to cone soon. The teepees are one (maybe 2) of a kind. So purchase them when you see them also I can ship them without the poles, to save on shipping.

PhotoFunia Gave me the giggles

So My friend on facebook put up some photos her created on Photofunia.com . Talk about a fun site to play with you can take a picture and using face recognition tech they locate the face and place it in the picture. Look at some of them I did. By the way I am a HUGE fan of Madonna and have been for the last 20+ years... I call her the "Goddess". So much so that my kids have been able to recognize her voice since they were 2 1/2.
