Too Smart for her Own good

I mean we all know my kid is brilliant, and that Im in huge trouble if she decides to use her powers for evil instead of good. (Im leaving her with Lorie when she turns 13 and moving to Switzerland with no extadition laws).

She can climb the slide and go down all on her own, she has mastered stairs and running (walked at the end of 9mo), she has NO fear and will try and climb out of, into or onto different thing and doesnt even wonder where I am. the backyard is her own jungle and shes all over it and falling and getting scraped and running off again.

See I MISS the cute cuddly baby that snuggled and stayed put. I havent seen that baby since like 6mo when she was crawling and into everything. I get snuggles when shes sick or tired. But during the day shes off doing something else.

To deal with all of this, and my own life (work, school, friends etc) I NEEEED sleep and coffee..

And now it seems she can tell time...she sees it is 7:00 and wakes up and decides I need to wake up too! Now obviously I dont agree with time happening before 8am, and even then its debatable. So really Im thinking Im turning the clock back an hour, and letting her think its 6am because I need the extra hour of sleep!

L 2 DRIVE and Morons (RANT)

Seriously, you work at McDonalds, your job is NOT hard. Ive had that job, I worked the back drivethru. So if you cant count back change AND take someones order, then go wipe down tables or something, because really, its not that difficult. And dont tell me that Im sitting there waiting at the order box and you cant even say "welcome to McDonalds, Ill be right with you", because your busy counting back change. Push the button and tell me that your on the same PLANET and the machine isnt broken because Ive been saying "hello?" twice now and think youve died! *sigh* good thing I used correct change or we would have never gotten out of there...

An on to other people..
If your driving, and its busy and you come up to a 4 way stop... TWO people can go ACROSS each time. You dont have to wait for the people at 12oclock, 3 oclock 6 oclock and 9 oclock to each go one at a time. Now yes this will take some brain power because someone may be turning, but really, if someone facing you starts to go, and doesnt have on a turn signal or looks to be veering to turn, then go WITH them, we will all be out of here so much quicker! If there are 5+ people behind you seriously, just GO. If your the only one then you can make nice and take turns, but really we all have places to be and this one at a time crap is annoying.

If you are driving down a residential street, it is NOT a dragrace. SLOW DOWN. I will not hesitate to drag you from your POS car GTA style and beat the crap outta you if you drive down the street and my daughter is any where near. Really, its Santa Maria. You have a crappy car with a cheap ass body kit and your not THAT cool.

Anyone else?

Stupidity on Myspace

Okay look, if your going to fill out the little "about me" parts on Myspace, dont put "if you dont know me, Im not going to add you" and "Im not all into myspace blah blah" or "I dont want to advertise myself on myspace" ...but if you are going to do this, DONT HAVE YOUR PROFILE ON PRIVATE YOU MORONS!!!

Seriously, um, how stupid are you?! If ONLY your friends can read it then why have "if you dont know me, Im not going to add you"... Im mean.. COMMON!

Also, if you think myspace is lame, then... why are you here?... your NOT any cooler than anyone else because your a rebel and your not REALLY here.. get over yourself.

Okay, Im better now.

Unpacking and Sorting

We went to Sacramento and this weekend and then through San Jose to get everything out of storage. It took forever and everyone was tired and sore at the end but I now have all my stuff and an upright piano that has been in my family now for over 50 years. I don't play piano but its spiffy and looks cool too.

I am now sorting through everything to repack it up to send Joey his stuff, and while having a bonfire at the beach would be so much easier and far more satisfying, I am sorting and dividing and packing. It would be far simpler if everything was marked "Tara's Stuff" or "Joey's Stuff" and I could sort it quicker. But no, everything was packed by the room it was in (Office, Livingroom, Kitchen etc) and so dividing up Xmas ornaments, photos and other misc items is taking up a lot of time, and space.

So I am sorting into 3 piles. My stuff, Stuff I don't want, and Joey's Stuff. The stuff I want to keep then will have to be sorted into 'house' and 'garage' and the garage stuff needs to be sorted into the back for storage and into the front for access (like bulk Cosco stuff, holiday tubbies etc). The stuff I don't want will be offered to Kim, Katie, Lorie and Reese first to sort through (mostly baby clothes shes grown out of), and then yard sale and then thrift store. The stuff of Joeys is being put in boxes and we will see how many it takes up, currently its 4+ boxes so we may have to look at crating it and sending it freight.

I cant wait till Im done. The garage will be organized, Joey's crap will be gone and the house will look awesome. Some day....

Night off!

Okay, so we had a slow start to the morning, Kaylee was constantly trying to 'baby' Kaylani and they were both tired and not wanting to share. So around 9am I tossed Kaylee in her PnP and Kaylani on the bed with me and we took a nap! Kaylani looked at me, smiled, and closed her eyes, it was too easy. Kaylee peeked through the window a bit but then settled down and went to sleep too. It was a wonderful thing!

And then at 1030 my mom came to take Kaylee away... for the whole day and night! So Kaylani and I will spend the rest of the day playing and Ill try and get some cleaning done, but tonight I finally have a night off!!

Bananas on the floor

My floor is covered in bananas... I have been awake since 6am.... not even Blues Clues is helping (though we do like Steve better than Joe).... and the coffee fairy didnt come by to visit me.... must be hanging with the kitchen fairy that didnt do the dishes...

On a positive side Kaylee and Kaylani are having a great time! (My Kay-Kay girls lol)

To farmers we Go!

Sooo.... Lorie is coming by at 530 and she and I and Aaron and Mickayla are heading to SLO. Katie is bringing Matt and Kaylani and we are meeting my mom, Jodi and her friend Shannon as well as Kim, Bing and the twins, at Farmers.

So many people! Hopefully someone will take photos =)

I plan on buying tons of fresh veggies and yummy foods while we are there too! Our new fridge needs to be filled up!
