how to know.....

2007-05-03T14:18:00.000-03:00

WHETHER OR NOT YOU ARE READY TO HAVE CHILDREN

MESS TESTS
smear peanut butter on the sofa and curtains. Place a fish stick behind the couch and leave it there all summer.

TOY TEST
Obtain a 55-gallon box of LEGOs (or you may substitute roofing tacks). Have a friend spread them all over the house. Put on a blindfold. Try to walk to the bathroom or kitchen. Do not scream because this would wake a child at night.

GROCERY STORE TEST
Borrow one or two small animals (goats are best) and take them with you as you shop. Always keep them in sight and pay for anything they eat or damage.

DRESSING TEST
Obtain one large, unhappy, live octopus. Stuff into a small net bag making sure that all the arms stay inside.

FEEDING TEST
Obtain a large plastic milk jug. Fill halfway with water. Suspend from the ceiling with a cord. Start the jug swinging. Try to insert spoonfuls of soggy cereal into the mouth of the jug, while pretending to be an airplane. Now dump the contents of the jug on the floor.

NIGHT TESTP
Prepare by obtaining a small cloth bag and fill it with 8-12 pounds of sand. Soak it thoroughly in water. At 3:00 p.m. begin to waltz and hum with the bag until 9:00 p.m. Lay down your bag and set your alarm for 10:00 p.m. Get up, pick up your bag, and sing every song you have ever heard. Make up about a dozen moreand sing these too until 4:00 a. m. Set alarm for 5:00 a.m. Get up and make breakfast. Keep this up for 5 years. Look cheerful.

INGENUITY TEST
Take an egg carton. Using a pair of scissors and pot of paint, turn it into an alligator. Now take a toilet paper tube and turn it into an attractive Christmas candle. Use only scotch tape and a piece of foil. Last, take a milk carton, a Ping-Pong ball, and an empty box of Cocoa Puffs. Make an exact replica of the Eiffel Tower .

AUTOMOBILE TEST
Forget the BMW and buy a station wagon. Buy a chocolate ice cream cone and put it in the glove compartment. Leave it there. Get a dime. Stick it into the cassette player. Take a family size package of chocolate chip cookies. Mash them into the back seat. Run a garden rake along both sides of the car. There, perfect.

PHYSICAL TEST (Women) Obtain a large bean bag chair and attach it to the front of your clothes. Leave it there for 9 months. Now remove 10 of the beans.

PHYSICAL TEST (Men) Go to the nearest drug store. Set your wallet on the counter. Ask the clerk to help himself. Now proceed to the nearest food store. Go to the head office and arrange for your paycheck to be directly deposited to the store. Purchase a newspaper. Go home and read it quietly for the last time.

FINAL ASSIGNMENT
Find a couple who already have a small child. Lecture them on how they can improve their discipline, patience, tolerance, toilet training and child's table manners. Suggest many ways they can improve. Emphasize to them that they should never allow their children to run wild. Enjoy this experience. It will be the last time you will have all the answers.

lol i thought this was just too funny!!!

sometimes

2007-01-14T09:51:00.000-04:00

sometimes you go through life thinking
you somewhat have things figured out.
sometimes you make the wrong
choices and sometimes you make right
ones. sometimes you learn and sometimes
you dont. sometimes things just happen
for a reason...to learn and show you the
lesson. i have learned my lessons.

sometimes we go through life wondering
why it is that we have to endure some of
the things we do. we ask ourselves why cant
things just be the way you want in life. well
that my friends is too simple. sometimes
we need to experience some bad to appreciate
the good things. i appreciate the good things.

we go through life with the idea of the perfect
person for us. it is like a dream almost. how
many do we meet and say ok they arent the
one for me? is it really that hard to find
someone that looks for the same things in
life as yourself'?

through the internet i have met several people
and have made great friends over the years.
when you meet people on here sometimes
you just have a good feeling on them and
decide ok lets meet. i took that chance with
someone and let me tell you he is like no
other. he is real and i knew that
from just chatting with him. we had a date..
it was great. he was a perfect gentlemen
and we had so much in common and was
really lookin for the same things in life.
the week passed and we talked every night
and looked forward to the weekend to see
each other again. we had an awsome
weekend together! things are good. i am
very happy! life is good.

over and out!
~laurie

i mean seriously the days
seem to be FLYING by so
bloody fast it's starting to
blur a little lol...

christmas around town now with
the snow! yeah! we have NEW

a cold and breathing issues! maybe the
docs were right when they said i have
asthma when i was early teens! well
it went away over the years but i have
found that i get this least once in winter ...
maybe the change over or something?
sooooooooooooooo i think i should quit
the smoking and smartin up already eh!
*eek* a few winters ago i even came
down with a lung infection and you
would THINK that would MAKE me
realize! but i guess one can't give it up
till they are ready. i think i am gettin
there tho. it's terrible..i can't be like
this. even my son got off my lap from
snuggling yesturday and said,
"k mom i'm gettin down...you don't sound
very good" seeing his concerned somewhat
scared look on his face touched me like
no other.
*gasp*

if that wasn't enough to deal with i am also
having drain/sewer issues as well. waiting
on the plumber
for that one. eekkk!!

got a busy week here in the household
with moms 2 pugs!and covering for her
with her work phone as well. so umm
yah mama needs to breathe good to get
through this busy week! lol well least i still
have my humor!

haven't scrapped since my poppets....

festival of lights and fireworks! fun fun!

nice and the kids weren't all cold and junk..
i want to get the tree up by months end.

our gingerbread house too and that was
a blast!

nutshell...

ahh that chick stacy tagged me:

"List seven songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether or not they have words, or even if they’re not any good, but they must be songs you’re really enjoying now. Post these instructions in your LiveJournal/blog along with your seven songs. Then tag seven other people to see what they’re listening to."

so here are mine:
1. "call me when your sober" by evanescence
2. "man eater" by nelly furtado
3. "sexyback" by amberleys boyfriend
4. "creep" by radiohead
5. "come on closer" by JEM
6. "lips of an angel" by hinder
7. "throw it all away" by toby rand (rockstar supernova)
