blah blah blah.. how borring is this blog anyway? geeze. of course Im pretty borring at the moment. Still not a whole heck of a lot going on in my life.. there is work.. there is kittens.. I read the first three harry potter books the other day.. not bad. Im surprised how close the movies were to the book. I was bored a little while ago and started surfing ebay.. you know.. they really need a random auction search. Im sure there is a ton of great stuff for sale on ebay, but I couldn't think of much of anything to look for.. so I quickly gave up.. although I did find the low carb pasta I was looking for.

this summer has been really weird.. it never really has gotten to be "summer" as one would think of it. it was cold.. then it was rainy.. then it was warm and rainy.. then it was muggy and foggy.. we had maybe a handful of nice days and now its august.. and we aren't expecting any sun till wednesday.. Im not a summer girl myself.. the fair skin and red hair cause me to be fearful of the sun.. but the lack of sun has made the pool very cold.. Ive only been in it once, and I got out rather quickly.

what also has been hard is that Ive been saving all my pennies for the home remodling job we've got in mind. When we built the house five years ago, we planned to put in a bedroom/bath downstairs.. Closing in on the halfway mark for the funds to do it now.. we also have the sink and the flooring for the bedroom. Going to put in radient floor heating.. will be nice. We couldn't start while we had foster kittens... and they'll be going back monday.. so soon there after we'll be ripping out the carpet.. which is beyond nasty. Too many kitties throwing up on it... and then there was that issue with the tub leaking, so Im sure its covered with mold. I can not wait to get that out of here.

I really need to get off my duff sometime soon and clean this house.. there is a bunch of stuff I can throw out.. its just so hard to do.. Ive got that little voice in my head that whines.. but what if you neeeed it later on.. (how many times have I said this before.. trust me.. one of these days it IS GOING TO HAPPEN.. [yea.. right])

What Monty Python Character are you?
brought to you by Quizilla

When I stand up for myself and my beliefs,
they call me a bitch.

When I stand up for those I love,
they call me a bitch.

When I speak my mind, think my own thoughts
or do things my own way, they call me a bitch.

Being a bitch means I won't compromise what's
in my heart. It means I live my life MY way. It
means I won't allow anyone to step on me.

When I refuse to tolerate injustice and
speak against it, I am defined as a bitch.

The same thing happens when I take time for
myself instead of being everyone's maid.

It means I have the courage and strength to
allow myself to be who I truly am and won't
become anyone else's idea of what they think
I "should" be.

I am outspoken, opinionated and determined.
I want what I want and there is nothing wrong
with that!

So try to stomp on me, try to douse my inner
flame, try to squash every ounce of beauty I hold
within me. You won't succeed. And if that makes
me a bitch, so be it.
