the friday five

1. What is your most prized material possession?

my golden bracelet that my mom gave me on my 15th b-day that her mom gave to her on her 15th b-day.

2. What item, that you currently own, have you had the longest?

see above

3. Are you a packrat?

that's putting it mildly. yes. yes i am :p~

4. Do you prefer a spic-and-span clean house? Or is some clutter necessary to avoid the appearance of a museum?

i prefer a tidy home, however i'm rather lazy at times (like today . . . damn hangover) so usually there's no way anyone would mistake our place for a museum, unless it was a museum of stuff casually thrown about the apartment :)

5. Do the rooms in your house have a theme? Or is it a mixture of knick-knacks here and there?

Unfortunately there is no "theme" to our place. we still rent, so we're afraid to put too much into our decor until we have a more permanent place to live. So there are a TON of knick-knacks (mostly red wings & bruce campbell *haha*) & no real order

I am sooooo tired. I have 30 minutes to go. I have to put some chia in training on Krawk Island at the academy, then i'm off to sleep. I took like 4 back pills cuz I strained my back today on workforce and i'm soooo ready to just lay down and relax. ZzzzzzzzzzZ We shovelled snow all day. 52 houses were on the list for us. Of that, probably 12 or 14 were already done when we went by, and of the rest i helped shovel about half. so 18-20 houses. *ugh* Yeah. I'm hurting. I have a whole day to recover tho then it's back on Thursday. Maybe it wasn't such a good idea to do more than one a week. *sigh*

today wasn't bad tho, besides the excessive shovelling. There was another girl there. 30 years old as well. She's a waitress at Simon's in Allen Park. And Kevin knows her LOL!!! She's been up to the restaurant i guess. And a guy (i don't remember his name but he looked like John-john jascinski.*cute*) who owns a bar up by Irish Hills called "Sue's Lakeside Inn" .

YAY! only 20 more minutes to go. I've never been this ready to go to sleep. Well, it's been a long time anyway. I don't even think i'll be able to wake up to take Kevin to work in the morning. Which means i probably won't go to work tomorrow either cuz he's supposed to work a long day. The girl they just hired last week called in today and quit. So it's just Kevin & Tony in the kitchen again/ Which means a HUGE check . . . but i won't get to see him hardly at all. and that makes me rather sad. :( I hate that he works so much. I know he loves his job & he's amazingly good at it, I just don't want them to take advantage of him. And i'm terribly afraid they are. Altho i can't complain too much since he's still hourly. . . which means he makes over $20 an hour overtime pay. YAY! :p~

Okay, now i'm heading to sleep. It's about that time. The Chias are in training and I'm too tired to see straight. Sweet Dreams!!!

This quiz doesn't know me that well . . . does it *wink*

What's YOUR sexual fetish?
brought to you by Quizilla

I still don't want to have any kids, but this is sweet . . .

The Cost of Children

The government recently calculated the cost of raising a child from birth to 18 and came up with $160,140 for a middle income family. Talk about sticker shock! That doesn't even touch college tuition.. But $160,140 isn't so bad if you break it down. It translates into:

$8,896.66 a year, $741.38 a month, or $171.08 a week. That's a mere $24.24 a day! Just over a dollar an hour. Still, you might think the best financial advice says don't have children if you want to be "rich."

It is just the opposite.

What do your get for your $160,140?

1. Naming rights. First, middle, and last!
2. Glimpses of God every day.
3. Giggles under the covers every night.
4. More love than your heart can hold.
5. Butterfly kisses and Velcro hugs.
6. Endless wonder over rocks, ants, clouds, and warm cookies.
7. A hand to hold, usually covered with jam.
8. A partner for blowing bubbles, flying kites, building sand castles, and skipping down the sidewalk in the pouring rain.
9. Someone to laugh yourself silly with no matter what the boss said or how your stocks performed that day.

For $160,140.

1. You get to finger-paint, carve pumpkins, play hide-and-seek, catch lightning bugs, and never stop believing in Santa Claus.
2. You have an excuse to keep: reading the Adventures of Pooh and watching Saturday morning cartoons, going to Disney movies, and wishing on stars.
3. You get to frame rainbows, hearts, and flowers under refrigerator magnets and collect spray painted noodle wreaths for Christmas, hand prints set in clay for Mother's Day, and cards with backward letters for Father's Day.

For $160,140, there is no greater bang for your buck.
1. You get to be a hero just for retrieving a Frisbee off the garage roof, taking the training wheels off the bike, removing a splinter, filling a wading pool, coaxing a wad of gum out of bangs, and coaching a baseball team that never wins but always gets treated to ice cream regardless.
2. You get a front row seat to history to witness the first step, first word, first bra, first date, and first time behind the wheel.
3. You get to be immortal.
4. You get another branch added to your family tree, and if you're lucky, a long list of limbs in your obituary called grandchildren.
5. You get an education in psychology, nursing, criminal justice, communications, and human sexuality that no college can match. In the eyes of a child, you rank right up there with G~d. (Well, at least until they reach their teenage years.)
6. You have all the power to heal a booboo, scare away the monsters under the bed, patch a broken heart, police a slumber party, ground them forever, and love them without limits, so one day they will, like you, love without counting the cost.

ENJOY YOUR KIDS AND GRAND KIDS. The best
