Whats up with Blogrolling?
Is it ever coming back? Does it not know how much I use it?

Is it just me or does anyone else get the feeling that Rick Schroder was brought in to replace Kiefer Sutherland ? I am not so sure how I feel about that.

Also, if Daniels is the acting president next season, I may not be able to watch.
Damn, I hate that guy.

All and all I think it’s been a pretty entertaining season.
We have what, one more episode left?

There is no way I could complain or feel sorry myself today, not with stories like this in the news.

Gunman kills 32 in Virginia Tech rampage,

A gunman massacred 32 people at Virginia Tech in the deadliest shooting rampage in modern U.S. history Monday, cutting down his victims in two attacks two hours apart before the university could grasp what was happening and warn students. The bloodbath ended with the gunman committing suicide, bringing the death toll to 33 and stamping the campus in the picturesque Blue Ridge Mountains with unspeakable tragedy, perhaps forever.

My heart goes out to all of the victims and their families.

Because of everything happening at once, I am having a lot of trouble paying our bills this month.  I have been trying to come up with some ideas on how to raise some money online. Of course the first thing I did was scope the house for possible Ebay items. I found a few but not enough.
Then I remembered that over the weekend I was given a $10.00 Best Buy gift card. I thought way not try to raffle it off. It has NO EXPIRATION DATE right on it and it can be used in any Best Buy store or online.

Here’s what I am thinking,

$3.00 a ticket.  You can use Paypal or email me, I will then email you a ticket number.
Then next Monday evening, April 23th I will have my daughter Allison pick the winning number out of a bag. I can even post a little video of her choosing the winner.






*note, my Paypal email is

Thank you!

If it goes well, I am willing to hold another raflle next month for a $20.00 Target card.

My sister invited us over last night for a few drinks and to hang out with her brother in law and his wife. She told me on the phone that they had brought over their Wii.
Let me start by saying, I am so not a gamer, I mean not at all. The last video game I liked was Ms. Pacman or maybe Centipede. so I was expecting to just hang out and watch them play.

Well, I had no idea!
We had such a good time playing the bowling. We also had some pretty damn good drinks.
It was just what I needed, a few hours of fun and laughs with my sister and letting go of all the stress that is going on in our life right now.


Yeah, now I am hooked, I need one of these. Like right now.

I am about to dump like a dump truck. Something I don’t do here very often but may start for the sake of my sanity!

In the past month my life has made four huge changes and every day I am waking up with my head spinning and wondering what the hell will happen next.
First, our house payment as of this month went up $300.00 because of a mistake in the escrow, making it a whopping $1400.00 payment that we so can not afford. Then a week later, my brother in law who my husband was very close to passed away. This has been very hard on my little family here. Strike three, with out him, my mother in law can no longer afford her apartment and has to move in with us. Being the person I clash with the most on this earth, I am really stressing to say the least. But I love my husband and will try my best to make this work. Okay, number four, my husband’s shop went under this week. He doesn’t even know for sure if he is being paid for the past two weeks he has worked. We are in some serious shit!
I always thought bad things came in 3s? I said that to my mother and she said to brace myself for two more then, but I think we just got hit with an extra and have had enough.
I mean I don’t think we can take any more.
