Silly Me

January 31, 2008

Sometimes I do dumb things!!  Yeah I know you all were thinking I was perfect right??!!  Well right???  Okay stop shaking your head at that one, I do dumb things alot of times.

I have the “new car” bug and oh let me tell you, I have it bad for some reason and don’t know why.  My car is perfect, low miles, has all I need and the best part it’s paid for!!!!  So what is wrong with me???  Well we had best not get into that, there’s tons wrong!!!!

The other morning I was sitting here sucking down my morning coffee and I built a nice beautiful blue Dodge Caravan. Yes I know a mini van, but I do need one with mama and her wheelchair.  So mmm not a “soccer mom” anymore but a “goldie oldie mobile.”  Anyway it had everything in it from air control seats, swivel stow and go seating, gps, double dvd system, multi cd system all power just top notch.  I put in my colors, interior and exterior just built in all that I wanted and  I actually hit the submit tab!!  Yep I did!!!  Then I went to Kelly Blue Book and got the trade in value of my car, not bad I guess $10,800.  So my figuring years, finance etc I came up with a pay’t of like $300 per month for a beautiful 2008 Goldie Oldie Mobile!!!  Not bad, we can do that.

I tell you within 15 minutes my phone rang, yeah the local Dodge dealer all pumped just knowing he has a sale and his commission is there, no doubt even called his wife telling here “We are going to Disneyland”  Yeah but little did he know it was me he was  dealing with.  I for one don’t NEED a new car, mine is paid for, and most of all I don’t play their games of “let me check with my manager” routine etc.  So I told him what I want my pay’t to be yadda yadda.  He calls me back and tells me a; because I want the blue one, I have to add this feature which is another few thousand, b; I want the double dvd’s so have to have this also and c; say we will give you $8000 for your van because Chevy no longer makes them.  YEAH and that would make you give me less than blue book, just so you can triple the price when you sell it and make a total killing off me.  Then he drops the bomb and your pay’t is ONLY $424 per month !!!!  WTF  mister did you not hear me tell you, $300???  So I said to him, um no thanks, don’t want that high pay’t and I want more for my van.  Then I get the ol song and dance, well let me do some figuring, get with my boss ( ugh see he totally blew that sale) and get back to you.  Also think of dropping a few of the luxuries you wanted in the van.  Are you nuts mister??  I want what I want and ALL of what I want.  He calls back, yeah with no dvd and a black van, no dual temp control guess what your pay’t is not going to be $397!!!!  I not so politely told him what he could do with that deal in a hurry.

I get home yesterday to a message from him on my machine telling me he “talked to his boss” and they so want to get me into the vehicle I want,  Oh damn those words must be part of their schooling, I swear they all say that.  But I never returned his call.

In the meantime I didn’t know but hubby applied for a personal loan through our bank only did it for the shortest amt of time possibe.  Haha they call and say “your twenty thousand dollar loans has been approved, just come down and we will get your check etc”  WHAT???!!!  I was like um, well let me talk this over with my husband and I will call you back.  Uh yeah thanks but no thanks, and hubby you are not forever banned from your computer!!!!!  The shortest amount of time to re-pay equals tons of cash each month, no thanks!!

So all this crap has so cured me of my new car fever!!!  I so don’t want to go from no car pay’t to one over $400 per month.  No thank you.  It was fun while it lasted but I look out at my lil Goldie Oldie Mobile and yep I am content to keep her going as long as I can.  It’s okay it’s a 2004 with 39 thousand miles on it, so she can outlast me and yep the price is right!!!!

That was my entertainment for the last few days.  See anything to stop from thinking about Bryce and is “wrong decision” hahaha


Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!

January 30, 2008

Bryce called yesterday and he put in to get out of the Air Force.  His reason for this ” can’t adapt to the military lifestyle”  WTF  he never even gave it a chance, geeze.  I was so angry with his stupidity I couldn’t even talk, told him what I thought of it all and passed the phone on.  I was done talking to him, dealing with him etc, ENOUGH!!!!  I didn’t even write to him yesterday.  I was so mad that if I did start to write the paper would have gone up in smoke.  Support him?  Hell no I don’t!!

Now he waits two week to see if the Air Force buys this farce of an excuse so it’s wait again .  Oh well it’s his life he is trying to ruin and some day he will regret it..

Now I have to figure out how I will deal with him when he is back here.  No coddling that’s for sure, it will be interesting to see just how I handle it, cause right now I have no clue.

Too bad he is ruining a good thing but it’s his choice to mess up and I can’t do anything about it.


STILL WAITING

January 29, 2008

Can you believe it no call from Bryce yesterday.  Here I sat on pins and needles all damn day and nadda, nothing, no ring of the phone, grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.  So of course my mind kicked into over drive.  Thinking it can be A: he was busy , B: he was really pissed off cause he didn’t have any choice in the matter C: he made his choice and was afraid to come out and tell me or D: the meeting didn’t even happen.  Of course I am opting, hoping, praying, BEGGING for B but still waiting.  Maybe today I hope.  If not I will strangle me one grandson!!!  I am so not a patience person and he knows that.  He had best not be playing me cause that would really get my ol dander up.  Trust me Granny’s dander flying isn’t very pretty!!!!  :)

I will keep you all posted and see I have one more day to pray he has to stay in!!!  It’s for his own good, really it is, I know it and he has to know it, I am hoping.  So here I go, one more day of waiting, but hell it’s one more day he’s in the Air Force too!!!!


Waiting Almost Over

January 28, 2008

Okay so today is supposedly the day that Bryce finds out just what is going on with the Air Force.  Me I am hanging onto the last thread of hope, that they do not give him a choice.  Instead they tell him he will finish physical therapy then get re-cycled back through basic training.  Prayers people, lots of prayers that’s the case.

If Bryce does have a choice he told me he coming home.  WTF is wrong with that kid anyway?  Oh trust me I so let him know my true feelings in a letter and over the phone.  I mean like I told him, I refuse to lie, coddle him and I have always told it like it is.  No sugar coating for me, nope. It may take awhile but eventually I do let it all out.  ( and no Kelly M, didn’t pop my eye ball just yet !!  That in itself is another blog all together.  Trust me people, it’s possible to blow every vein in your eye ball due to stress, I am living proof!)

Anyway I told him how very disappointed I was and as long as I live, will never understand why he had the brass ring and threw it away.  I told him there really is nothing here for him and we are not going to carry him through life.  He has this job now, a six year commitment and all the advantages he could possible ask for, yet he is willing to throw it away, how dumb can one get anyway?  But he knows how I feel and you know I may as well have said that to a brick wall cause truthfully I am sure he was holding his phone away from his ear, thinking bla bla bla the bitch!!!!

So if he is dumb enough to toss it all away then he boy is in for one hell of a hard climb to adulthood.  I may be jumping the gun here, like I said maybe he won’t even have a choice but!!!!  I don’t mind telling you each time I think of him coming home I get sick to my stomach!!  Seriously I do.  Someone asked me if I was mad for him or for me.  My honest to goodness gut feeling????  I am mad for him!!!!!  He had a rough childhood and now he has this golden opportunity and is willing to throw it all away why?  I am not mad for me, hell I am set. I have my security, medical coverage, a car with car insurance I can pay.  I have a pay check coming in, I have a home so no, not made for me.  So it’s for him.  He is looking at “today” and I am looking at his “future”  But whatever happens I have to accept it and move on.  That right there will be a huge challenge for me.  I just hope I can and not be a bitch to him all the time.  I tend to let my true feelings show alot and if I am put on the spot, watch out world.

In the meantime I keep praying they will re-cycle him and then I can breath a sigh of relief.  I should know something late this afternoon when he calls.  I am dreading that phone call cause deep down I kind of know the outcome.  I pray I am wrong!!!  UGH kids when do they grow up anyway???


Extreme Make-Over

January 25, 2008

dsc00022.jpgBefore

bedroom.jpg After

Okay so now the Target red bedroom is now a re-done guest room.  I just added the beige sheers and have a few pictures to hang but other than that, complete!!!!  The pictures I chose are one wall will be three 8 X 10 sunset pictures with alot of brown tones to them and the other wall three 8 X 10 sunrise pictures.  As soon as I go pick up some picture hangers, hubby will put them up for me. The frames are the same color as the headboard.

So now the room is finished um yeah, I so want to do ours.  I was getting into bed the other night and told hubby, so not fair, that re-done room next to us, so comfy looking, and ours UGH!!!!  His words to me were “Well this room is next”  YAHOO!!  So yep now I am on a mission to find exactly what I want, cause I know I will only get one shot at it.  First thing is our carpet OUT and a new one coming in.  Ours is so old and it just needs to go.  But I want to find the perfect comforter set first, then I can pick out the contrasting colors to go with it.  You can bet I have been on tons of websites just looking.  Nothing has hit me yet, but it will.  I have no clue when we will do our room, but you can bet it won’t be long once I do find the comforter set.  :)   It’s hard work, the house looks so messy for days, but the end results very well worth it!!!

Only one thing saddens me about the re-modeled room.  That is Ashley.  She hasn’t even been in that room since Bryce left and even when I tell her it’s complete, no way, she hasn’t seen it.  Is she stubborn?  Does his leaving really have that much of an effect on her?  Is she just being a snot about it all?  I have no clue, but do know it’s her choice.  If she has no interest in seeing it, fine by me.  And if Bryce comes home I have all ready told him his room is now sissified, and he will have to deal with it.  Maybe that will help him make up his mind to stay.

And on the subject of Bryce, yeah we are still in limbo.  I am also wondering if after all this he will have a choice.  I mean he signed for 6 years, a legal binding contract, and once he is back to his own self, will they just go ahead and re-cycle him, no choice about it.  No idea what so ever.  He calls every day and is still telling me he hasn’t decided.  I am being good and not saying anything about it one way or the other.  I told him, he knows my opinion and no sense re-hashing each time he calls.  If you all only knew just how hard it is to keep my mouth shut, haha, wow I bite my tongue many many times during our conversatations!!!!   Oh well all I can do right now it wait!!!!  Whatever happens, happens and there’s not one thing I can do to change it. Plenty of prayers that he stays in and then go from there.


Too Cute & Too Pricey

dsc00003.jpgMax Before

max.jpg Max after

There you go before and after pictures of Max.  It’s so funny to actually see his eyes and nose, normally he’s just one shaggy pup!!!!  I so can’t believe that crazy dog had to be put under just so they could groom him, well his face, such a hyper, sensitive thing that he is.  Yeah $178.00 yikes, but it had to be done so that spot on his eye would heal.

On the good side though, his groomer Nina, told me to bring him in once a month and she would clip around his eyes and face, and it would only cost me $10, oh yeah I like that price so much better.  She said when she saw Dr Webster prepping Max to put him out she about freaked out.  She told the vet that she could clip him no problem, until of course he explained that it had to be a super close shave, due to his eye.  She is so good and told me that eventually Max would get over his fear and let her clip around his eyes and face with no problem.  Hahahah yeah I told her she was dreaming, but nope she insist that if I bring him in once a month, she will win him over.  So yeah “bring it on Nina, the challenge has started.”  :)

Poor lil pup though, dang I think it was the coldest day we have had in years and yep he loses all his fur.  I thought of buying him a sweater, but brought a blanket to wrap him in instead.  All evening he slept on the couch under the blanket!!!!

Yeah the bedroom is all painted, whew, ceiling too.  As soon as it dries it’s go in and clean up any drips, put the baseboards back on, mop the floor the go for it.  Yup I am continuing to turn Bryce’s bedroom into a guest room, as if he isn’t coming back.  I mean I still have no clue if he is or isn’t.  He calls and I don’t ask, he doesn’t tell!!!  :)   DANG IT!!!  I want to know his decision like “yesterday,” but I am being good.  He knows my opinion and that’s it, no matter how much it kills me to keep my mouth shut.  If you all knew me, well then you would have an idea just how hard it is for me to be quiet, right Kelly M?

Cheeze-it’s and coffee for mid morning snack anyone want some???  Painting made me hungry and hey junk food to me is healthy, it’s cheese!!!!!!

So sad about Heath Ledger isn’t it?  Wow these people dying so young, makes you stop and think just how precious life is.  You just never know so alway live your life to the fullest!!!!

Okay break time over, time to go get mama up and started on her day, then do some cleaning , dang I am wonder how on earth I will fit in a nice cozy happy nappy, mmmmm I bet I come up with some plan!!!!


Still Waiting

January 22, 2008

Yeah still waiting on Bryce’s decision but I am not alot calmer.  I told him exactly how I feel about his mess and bottom line, only he will make the decision.  I just pray it’s the right one and he stays in.  I was so upset, angry, disappointed and every other emotion know to man kind then had to make myself shape up.  Dang I was a wreck going somewhere to happen and why??!!!  Can’t change his decision what ever it may be and I figure hell I am just going to carry on.  Life goes on right??  I have heard that so much and am now applying that to ME!!!!

I thank each and everyone of you for your support you have given me, it’s meant so much to me.  More than words can say.  See that’s why I love this blogging bit, it’s GREAT!!!

It’s damn freakin cold over here, mid 20’s and that’s so rare for us.  I want to just stay in the house but boo hoo can’t.  Max goes for grooming tomorrow, but yeah they have to put him out!!!  He so lives up to his name  SHIT -zu :)   He has this spot on his eye and I have been running him to the vet for follow ups on it.  Today the vet said he is 100% positive it’s when Max rubs his face on the floor, the gunky hair in his eyes hits his eyeball.  So sort of like rug burn on the eyeball, OUCH!!  So tomorrow they are knocking him out and shaving the heck out of his face.  The vet told me I will be shocked cause he won’t look like Max but a skinned dog!!!! Oh well huh? If it helps him so be it.  Then he said NOT to feed “mama” after 8pm.  He told me Max can’t eat after 8pm tonight so I told him how mama loves to share her snack with Max.  One bite for mama one for Max ewwwwwwwwww but what the hell, she is 91 and no doubt has eaten worse than that right?  So when I was leaving the office in front of everyone haha Dr Websters yells, remember don’t feed mama after 8pm.

Colder than crap and yeah I have to have the dog at the vet between 8 and 9am.  You can bet it will be closer to 9!!!!!  Maybe it will warm up by then!!!!  I can hope can’t I?

OH MY GOSH how could I not tell you!!!!  I did it, yep got the PERFECT score in Wii bowling YAHOO.  Oh I know I didn’t tell you cause I was assuming you all heard me yelling and screeching when I finally got perfect!!  You did hear me right???  Yeah I thought so. I try every night to get that 300 and well last night I was horrible!!!  So tonight is another night, come on 10:15 I am ready to bowl!!!!

dsc00011.jpgI’m   not blonde it’s just my fantasy to be blonde and beautiful!!!!

dsc00014.jpg Ron 299   Sherry 300  Yeah I ROCK!!!!


This may be lengthy but I so need to write it out!!!!

January 19, 2008

Okay my “thinking” last week is coming to the surface now and to be honest I am no further ahead now than when I kept it all bottled up. I have hit on every emotion going and now I think it’s flat out anger. Anger at myself for not being tough, for feeling like a bad Grandma, for feeling selfish, for the doubts I have. You name the emotion I am there !!!!!

Bryce, yeah I know all the pride in him, the praise, the awe at his turn around in attitude last year, has all “hit the fan.” How you ask?? Yeah good thing you all can close this at anytime huh? I am sure you will cause this is going to be a whiny bitchy post no doubt.

Okay he called last Tues night and I was so happy to hear from him, hear how things are going etc. NOT!!! He says “Grandma I hurt myself really really bad today.” My first instinct is of course “are you okay? what happened? are you in the hospital?” etc. Not in the hospital but they gave him pain pills and he is going to med hold. WTF !!! He has a pressure fracture in his hip so it’s physical therapy, and that requires med hold no continuing this basic cycle. But they will treat him and then re-cycle him, no biggie, he’s okay in pain but okay, and I can change the date on my plane tickets and the motel.

End of story? Oh hell no, not with Bryce. See someone mentioned he could get an “out” of the military so yeah he is so pushing for that. He has previously said he is having trouble with push ups and the physical part of it and doesn’t like it, so okay offer Bryce an easy way out of something he is on it like a fly on shit. See he is so intelligent that he has absolutely no common sense. His motor skills need work but he can master them. Hey he mastered the ddr on the play station, masters any video game out there, so he can do this. But like anything with his intelligence he expects to get something on the first try if not, he wants no part of it. Example he tried riding a bike, couldn’t do it so he never learned til he was I believe 13 yrs old and only cause I forced him to. Driving the same thing, he expected to jump in the car, know everything and that would be it. So didn’t happen so look went from 15 1/2 to almost 19 before he got his license. Yeah after we paid the $275 for drivers ed and the numerous re -newals of his permit.

So basic is the same thing, he struggled with the physical part of it and now is looking for an out. Oh I don’t doubt he has the fracture BUT here’s the thing, he can stay right there in med hold, get all the medical he needs to over come this, get paid while being treated, then get re-cycled and continue on. Bryce told me the doctors will decided if he stays or leaves. MMMM doubting Grandma based on his record, yep I called the recruiter. Bryce is the ONLY one that makes the decision. The recruiter told me to tell Bryce, to state he does not want out, wants to heal then continue on. I feel the same cause my gosh, this kid has it all right now, job, free education, medical, and the chance to travel.

So after over an hour on the phone with Bryce yesterday yeah he is still in the mind set of getting out!!! WTF how do I get through to him there is nothing here. I told him he won’t be driving cause we are not paying that extra $2200 to have him on our insurance, he has not job and now isn’t even covered under our medical. Tri-care sent a letter dropping him, due to him being in the service. Now with him 19 we can’t put him back on. I told him stay there as long as it takes cause he has the free care and if he leaves and something happens, well he’s screwed, cause nope we won’t pay any medcal bills either. I told him the “safety net” of being coddled at home is gone, we won’t and can’t carry him anymore he is a young man, needs to make his own path in life.

Yeah he’s like ” it’s okay I will get a job, and will pay my way” Hahahaha right, around here and with his record ,what working at a part time 15 hour a week job???? MMMM okay sure!!!!

No matter what I tell him he keeps saying “whatever decision I make, it will be best for me” WEll DUR NO BRAINER stay put. I interpert those words as I am getting out no matter what you or my recruiter say. Seriously the recruiter told me there is one girl that has been in med hold since July, she refuses to get out, and they have to pay her all this time.

Even though he got hurt in training he isn’t considered Air Force until he completes basic, so nope no benefits, like he was never even there if he gets out.

His sister is NO HELP. Ashley and I have gone round and round, she thinks I am the biggest bitch in the world right now, we can’t discuss this like adults, end up angry at each other, and one walking away. Bryce is calling her and she is telling him to come home, I am telling him to stay and damn he will listen to her. She is making every excuse in the book for him too. Now she is telling me that he told her he was depressed. BS he is homesick and afraid of work is all it is. Like I told Bryce, millions have gone through it and made it, why does he feel he is so different or special!!!!! Yeah you know that pissed him off.

Oh I have praised him, gave him words of encouragement played the “sweet” grandma part til I am blue in the face. I have made up my mind that when he calls today, I am going to let him know just how angry I am. Coddling him is not working and I am only doing it for his own good, his future etc.

That’s where the thinking comes in, am I doing it for his sake or am I selffish????Here I thought we got one out in life onto a good career and he blows it. When the hell is it our turn to just enjoy and stop “carrying kids”. The the financial aspect of it. Shit I have laid out buko cash for plane tickets, motel and re-doing his room. Yeah it’s NOT his room anymore screw that. I am so tired of paying our money to keep him going that I don’t want to do it anymore. See, I am selfish and bad, but I just can’t help it. Seriously I am quite angry and tired of him being a wimp. Buck up and go for it. Shit it’s for 6 weeks the the rest of his life is set in stone yet he can’t see that!!!!!

Today I plan on telling him also; you come back home and this are going to be so different. We aren’t driving you back and forth if and when you get a job , so get a day job, ride the bus. You are not going to stay up all night and sleep all day, or be playing on the computer or video games all day and night. No staying over night at your buddies or them here. It’s not high school anymore it’s reality, adulthood and you will make your own way. No messes around here, and if you have no money oh well, not my problem. Is that tough love or is that me being a selfish bitch?? I have no clue and you know what? Right about now in this frame of mind, I don’t care either way, he will get all the details laid out to him today.

So yup I am still “thinking” haven’t found the off switch yet, and the more I think, the angrier I get. I know the choice is his and with the aiding of his sister, I just know what choice he has in mind to make. What a fool to throw it all away cause he doesn’t know how to grow up huh?

So that’s my little life right now, told you, you should have closed this out after the first line, but for those who didn’t, thanks for letting me VENT!!!! Will keep you posted on all of this crap as it un-folds. Oh isn’t life fun??? NOT!!!


Just Thinking

January 17, 2008

I have been sitting here this morning, have read all  the blogs I have which by the way, I so need to get into more of them.  But I feel the ones I do have are totally awesome and consider each and everyone of you my friends.

So after my morning “blog read” I have been thinking of everyone and their lives.  We all have our ups and downs don’t we?  So that got me thinking me being the oldest here, how come I can’t come up with any word of wisdom to help when people are down, to cheer when people are cheering and to just be the “wise one” here?  I think I have found my answer; it’s because no matter what I say, everyone has to go through all the ups and downs in life to learn.  Yeah I am still learning over here even at my age.

Each day it seems something comes up that knocks me for a loop.  My first re-action, after the WTF, of course is panic.  I then go into the “what if I had done this different, what if we hadn’t done that etc” and you know what, it does me no good what so ever.  Hubby has the right idea, I can’t change it, being angry, sad , or even in a panic can’t help, so just accept and move on.”  MMMMMM like hell I will.  I would love to be in that frame of mind but for some unkown reason to me, yeah it never happens.

Something came up the other night and it has me in a tail spin and I can’t shake it, can’t stop the feelings I have and it’s weighing me down.  I found it making me a “tad” okay more than a tad bitchy I admit it.  I was even short with mama for a split second until I came to my senses.  I can’t ever be short with her, that is totally wrong.  I can’t be bitchy to hubby, Ashley or anyone but how the hell do I stop myself!!!!!  Once this problem that came up is resolved one way or the other I will definitely go into more detail about it, right now it’s a wait and see game I am playing and I so hate it.  Tomorrow I should know more and then will fill you in, that is if anyone is interested.

I have found myself thinking and asking the question that I know everyone has asked and it’s “Why, just why can’t things go on as planned and life be easy”  Yeah I know dumb question to be asking but geeze, I wonder why this, and will it all work out.  My daughter says yes, but me I am so doubtful I am making myself miserable.  So how do I stop “just thinking ” about it instead of taking hubby’s advice and just “roll with the flow?”  Cause I am selfish and think wait this is just so NOT fair to us.  Yeah I guess I am having my own lil pity party here with myself and yet I don’t even know if I should be or not.  I honestly can’t believe it’s all “me” I am thinking of right now, never knew I could feel so selfish and it has surprised me.  But I admit, I am being selfish here and don’t even know if I have a reason for it or not yet.  So call me crazy, dumb, or looney it’s okay I now doubt deserve it.  I am probably all of the above!!!!!!

In the meantime I will just go back to my “just thinking” mode and get myself busy working my selfishness off by priming walls and doing the everyday things that have to be done.  I do know life still goes on and I have to keep plugging along no matter what the outcome is tomorrow.   Anyone have any ideas where the switch to shut off the thinking part of your brain is???  If so will you please let me know?????


I’m Bad :)

January 15, 2008

Yeah I was a bad girl yesterday. I just felt like “spending ” some money I guess so what the heck, I did.

First before I even left the house I finally order the skin for my laptop. I customized it so now I am anxious for it to get here. I put a picture of the family on a light blue background, then have 2007 on top. It looks neat and it’s better than the ones they offer of their own. I don’t have any one thing they showed that I am interested in. Thought yeah family is my life so I hit customize and it was so easy to do. Yeah so easy to hit that “add to cart” then “purchase” button too. Damn you gotta love shopping on line, I know I do.

Went to Ft Lewis to pick up my prescription and then stopped to check out the PX. Found the cutest Valentine shirts so got Ashley, Mikayla and Miranda matching ones. Not too sure how Ashley feels about matching shirts, but know the girls will be thrilled to have one like Ashley’s. I am odd like that, love matching the kids and no doubt will continue to do that even when they are 50!!!!

Then me the one that said I would never spend money on Wii games, yep found one and got it. It’s called Winter Sports the Ultimate Challenge. So get home and start playing, directions, not, they just confuse me. Directions before each game, heck no I don’t need them I can figure it out. Hahaha if you could have seen me. First it said with both remotes, huh??? So what do I do? I grab the other remote and it does absolutely nothing. Then I read the small print, remote and numchuck!! Oh that’s what they mean by two remotes, I get it, piece of cake. NOT!!!! When I stopped “trying” to play I left the ski jumper air born. The figure skater on her ass, the speed skater slower than a turtle. The downhill skier still going down hill never ever stopping, and oh those poor people on the bobsled. Yep I firmly believe I killed them all on that third corner!!!!! But hey practice makes perfect so today I will get the jumper down, the figure skater up, the speed skater up to speed. The downhill skier will stop and I will even revive the bobsled team.

It’s fun learning but I so need to borrow a youngster so they can show me how to work two remotes without hanging myself and learn how to play the damn game. I think it will be fun once I learn how to play so I will let you know!!!

I only got a few things but did manage to spend a little over a hundred dollars, wow good thing I didn’t stop at any other stores!!!!!

So yeah I’m bad but what the hell, I’m also happy!!!!
