Cold Weather

Tomorrow I'll have to bring in my bougainvilleas and other cold sensitive plants. Yeppers, we are set for some really bone chillin cold here in the next week or two. We might even get lucky and see a few snow flurries on Thursday and /or Friday.

Yes, I know. Y'all in the upper East coast are screaming who the fuck cares. Well we do. Mexicans lose their fucking minds when it snows. I just want to see how many schools close when they notice three flurries and where. It should be fun in San Antonio.

Two years ago we had snow falling in West Bexar county. *Uh Bexar is pronounced bear the x is silent ... yeah go figure. The stuff was coming down hard west of San Antonio and schools started to close. This was in the afternoon mind you. It was melting and they still called it off.

It was total anarchy, dogs and cats living together(Ghostbusters). Yep the world was coming to an end. A friend at the local HEB(grocery store) here in town said there was a run on soups and bread and crackers. like they were going to be snowed in for days. Like I said, they lose their fucking minds.

I Think I Won, Again

Ahhh yes. The wonderful, magical life of the married Texas Witch. Yes, not a day goes by that isn't fully entertaining.



David: * rummaging around the wall key holder*
Me: *reading emails on Little Hal in the living room, not looking up I say* "What's up babe? Whatcha need?"
David: "Nothing." *looking worried, still rummaging*
Me: "Well obviously something is wrong. Whatcha lookin for?"
David: *stops rummaging* "Well if you must know, I locked my keys in the truck after I cleaned out the glove compartment.
Me: *not fazed by this* "Did you remember to put a new pad and two new pens in there?"
David: *checking his wallet* "No"
Me: "Well you better do it. Remember the accident? Nobody had pens or paper."
David:  "Do you have my other key to the truck?"
Me: "Nope. I thought it was on your desk." *smiling*
David: *coming from the media room, goes outside, comes back in jingling keys*
Me: "You got the keys?" *not looking up from my Freecell game, but I have a smug look on my face**
David: "Yep. You tell me. What would you do if you were stuck out on some lonely road and you accidentally locked the keys in your car and I was at work."
Me: *smiling, I say without missing a beat* "I'd call you at work and ask you to go get the extra set of my keys hanging in the kitchen and bring them to me out on said lonely road ... dear"
Me: * still smiling* "Anything else?"
David: "NO!" *trudges off to the media room to watch some sport on TV*

I guess I won... again.

Just A Stupid Update

I just got back from running errands this morning.I went to the tax office to get my hubby/plaything's new licence tags and plates for his truck, mailed four packages and bought stamps at the post office and dabbled in the gardening center at Home Desperate Depot, all in under two hours time.

Amazing, I know. I thought I'd be stuck in line at Home Depot all morning long but I got out in under one hour and 15 minutes tops. What's really cool is that I need to grab David tomorrow and go back and get some bags of potting soil and seeds. While he's drooling over the power tools, I'll load up on gardening goodies. Then I'll go collect him when I'm ready to go. Just like those moms that leave their kids at the toy sections and shop.

I finally got the puppies their bath yesterday afternoon. They were not happy campers and neither was my back. I can't wait for the weather to start hitting the high 80's so I can wash them outside on the patio table. It's one of those rod iron tables with the hole pattern on the tabletop. It's a heavy sturdy mother so it won't tip over.

But they got their bath and then I fed them their dinner and they fell asleep around 6pm. They're just like kids. Clean em up, fill em up and they pass out... just like mommy. Yeppers, I passed out around 7pm and woke up at 7am with three snoring puppies at the foot of the bed. I thought I went to sleep with my hubby/plaything.

The Crazy Witch's Daybook

• Outside my window I'm watching the cats across the street taking a sun tan on the roof of my neighbors car. YES!!! It's fucking 78 degrees outside. Aahahahahahhahahaaa  and I have all the windows in my house wide open. Eat your hearts out Northeast Coast.
• I am thinking that in an hour I'm going to start the dog blankets in the washer. As soon as the linens are finished.
• I'm thankful that I live in south Texas. ahahahhahaaa You poor saps up north.
• In the kitchen I'm going to make peas and rice and BBQ'ed chicken on the grill.
• I'm wearing my "go to hell" mumu when I don't feel like getting dressed.
• I'm going to be giving three little stanky puppies a bath as soon as their blankets are in the dryer.
• I'm reading Henry VIII by Alison Weir It's pretty good.
• I'm hoping the puppies don't give me to much trouble when I have to drown give them their bath.
• I'm hearing them whine as they try to talk me out of their bath time. They think that if they bring me their toys I'll forget about the bath.
• A few plans for the rest of the week...how to win back the trust of three scared, cute, clean little puppies. Damn you David!!! You are supposed to be doing this. Now they're gonna hate mommy for trying to drown them.

How To Tell If You Have A Witch

My brother will call me and we can talk for hours. But accidentally mention one line from Monty Python's Holy Grail and it turns into another two hour fiasco of scene after scene that we will recite and act out over the phone. This is our favorite one besides the " Bring Out Your Dead " scene.

A Day In The Life

I woke up this morning with an ear bleeding migraine again. This bitch has been with me for the past 7 days now and I'm sick of it. Just when I get it to quiet down, that's when the dogs start barking or the neighbor kid decides to play his ghetto blaster car stereo. I have to drag myself down the hall to the bathroom to get some aspirin because, this is really strange, nothing else works for me.

It's true. I have tried every stinking migraine medication my doctor could throw at me and nothing worked. But I take 3 or 4 regular aspirin and I'm fine as frog hair split four ways. Yeah, go figure. David says I'm from another planet. Hey I'm out on a day pass and they haven't found me yet.

I just got up from the couch to get some more coffee and happened to peek in the hallway where the heater is. There are three little black and white bodies lying on the carpet. Yeppers, three little cute dogs all spread out on the rug in front of the heater for max warmth. These three little lazy buggers will be in the other room later getting sun tans when the sun hits the floor. At which time during this day these little buggers will follow the sun all along the floor until it hits the other wall and then they will come to bother me for food. Ahh the life of a pampered puppy

Award Time

I feel so renewed. I slept a whole 8 hours through last night. No farting puppies, hockey games, etc. It was absolutely fuckinfabu. I still have pain but not as bad.

I just checked my emails and comments from this past weekend and found out I got an award from Susan at Pieces of Fate.  The directions say I'm supposed to share 7 things about myself and then pass it on to 7 bloggers. I don't mind getting these things but I hate passing them onto so many bloggers. So I will pick three bloggers and tell tree things about myself.

1. I love to shop online. In fact it's a secret fetish of mine.
2. I cry at night sometimes when David is asleep because I hate the thought of ever being without him. I don't know what I would do.
3. I am a book pack rat. I love them. I now have enough books that would probably cover two entire walls from top to bottom in my living room. That's 10' high X 14' and16' long.

Mmkay, I am passing this on to three bloggers :

1. Heathen at heathens-haven.blogspot.com
2. Jenn at abroomandthemoon.blogspot.com
3. Mina at greenwitchwithsprinkles.blogspot.com

Quick Note

I'm not too sure but I think Pebbles won the hockey game. Lucy pretty much steers clear of her since Friday night. And I did notice that Pebbles carries herself with a bit more ... how can I say this ..." my shit don't stink" sort of walk. Yeppers, I do think the EEP's were Lucy's.

I also noticed that Pebbles is eating from Lucy's food bowl. Not that the food is any different. But I think that the winner gets to eat from the "Winner 's Cup". Lucy's bowl is considered the trophy I guess. What a strange bet.
