Boo!

Well Howdy!  Long time no Moe.  I am not sure I have the urge or the inclination to keep up this space as I have failed miserably since the onset of facebook to the internet....lol.  I was just quickly passing through spaces tonight and happened across an old friend Brandi.  I realized I have been away from this too long as it took me forever to catch up with her journey.
 
Just a little update....
 
Princess Pissy Pants has graduated to big girl underwear.  We still have pull-ups at night but they are pretty much bone dry every morning.  It has been a fun experience and she even knows the "Underpants Song" that I made up for her.  She will sing it to anyone who will listen...lol.  Her big thing now is wanting to try every single bathroom in every single place we go.  She likes to get my girlfriends to take her as well because she likes to narrate how the act is officially performed...First you undo your pants, the you bend like this (imagine a small girl child bending over in front of the big grown up toilet), then you pull yourself up on the seat, then you put your hands on the side and hold on tight and then you make the magic sprinkles!  Then you wipe your doder, you pull up your pants and then you wash your hands.  All done!
 
My sweet girl turned 3 years old on Thursday.  I don't know where the time has gone.  She is a walking, talking little person now with a mind of her own.  As she tells me quite regularly, she is not a baby!  She is a big girl now and she does not need a cart anymore at Wal-mart!  Her choice of venues for shopping expeditions usually only include those that she is sure have no carts.  How she remembers these places is beyond me but it is quite a sight when we go to one that she thinks is cart-free and the Momma (that's me) finds one....heh heh. She doesn't want to shop there anymore...lol.
 
Well I have to go to bed.  It is way past bed time and whatever possessed me to write here could kepp me at it for hours.  I need to sleep as we have a happy birthday party tomorrow for Bootsie and I have to go to WW meeting first thing in the morning.
 
Cheers all and I will try not to be so much of a stranger.
 
Moe
 
PS Keep up the great work Brandi!

Stay tuned.....
 
Update June 23rd: 
 
It's sad but true.  I have forgotten what happened and have failed to remember.  It was a ghastly evening no doubt!  LOL  I was sparkly in gold though!
 
I am sucking as a blogger since the whole facebook thing appeared out there.  I have to get back to being productive on here as my Stink Girl has directed her weight loss friends to my space for pointers. 
 
It is nearly 4 months and both hublet and I are smoke free.  I still have the urge to have one but it passes.  I was doing fairly well with losing the added weight but I have been off this week while hublet is doing "Canada's Worst Driver" season 3 and the food is just too easy to get at.
 
 
Well I hope not to be a stranger but don't hold your breath. 
 
 
Cheers!

The Art of Pulling a "Moe"

I have been known to do some stupid things.  Not by choice, but more by fate or coincidence.  I must start by telling you that I picked up my brand new car last Saturday.  We always buy the previous years model as it is usually cheaper because the dealerships want to get rid of the old stock.  So I got a 2006 Nissan Sentra.  It is a 5-speed, the same as my 2001.  Hublet got the hand-me-down car as I did so many years past because he was teaching driving lessons.  He has since retired from the in-car instruction but continues to teach the classroom portion of the courses.  I always got his old cars...lol.  Anyway I digress, which I often do..lol.  Onward.  Tonight on my way home I needed to stop into Zehr's to pick up lottery tickets for the draw (which I never win, I might add...lol).  I picked up a few other things that were on sale and headed back out to the parking lot.  I looked out to where I thought I had parked.  You must understand also that the parking lot was not very busy at this time.  I walked over to the car and climbed in.  Then put my bags on the seat beside me.  I then went to find the clutch with my foot.  My feet were cold as it is friggin frigid here.  I couldn't find the dern clutch.  I didn't turn the light on in the car which would likely have been the logical thing to do.  Who ever said I was logical...lol.  I continued to fumble my foot around but could not find the clutch.  I decided to make sure the bags beside me were sitting properly so the innards would not go flinging all over the place.  I then tried to find the clutch again.  Well it was irking me that I had this new car and I couldn't find it.  I go to insert the key because for some reason I figured that would help me find the clutch.  I look at the ignition and think I don't remember the ignition being on the dash...hmm.  Oh well it is new and I haven't driven it too much as the girl I commute with was driving this week.  I am thinking to myself, Hublet is really going to think you are a spaz when you tell him about this...lol.  I only say this because this morning at about 6:50 am as I went out to leave for work, I backed the car in the snow at the side of the driveway and got the dern thing stuck.  After cursing for a few minutes and trying to unlodge myself, I gave up and went in the house and yelled up the stairs, "Im Stuck!" and went back outside.  I figured I shouldn't have to come in the house to tell him as I made it quite apparent by the sound of the tires spinning that I was indeed stuck.  Hublet knows that I am  backward driving challenged and should have been out of bed and down the stairs...lol.  He got up and came down finally, grumpy I might add...lol.  He says straighten the wheels, drive forward.  I did.  I got out of the rut.  He then says turn the wheels this way (I honestly don't remember which way as I am also directionally challenged), I did and he says to back up.  Took all of 30 seconds...lol.  He was not a happy camper.  I said it was because the wheels are wider on the new car.  He said that the problem was not the wheels....lol.  I wonder what he meant by that?  Did I tell you that he clears a path at the side of the driveway on the lawn for me to back into so that I don't have to back out of the driveway onto the road?  As I said before I am backward driving challenged, so I don't back into the driveway.  I was trying to back into that turn around laneway he made me and to be perfectly honest I know I was not even close to making it...lol.  I did get out but you can imagine why I thought he would think I was a spaz for not being able to find the clutch in the car.  The story continues.....  As I said I thought it was wierd that the ignition was on the dash because it was on the steering column in my old Sentra.  I have been sitting in the car for 8 to 10 minutes now.  I go to start the car and the key won't fit....hmm...I turn it around and try to put it in the other way.  It still doesn't work so I try switching it around one more time.  No luck.  I then reach up to turn on the map light that my new car has.  Lo and behold there is no damn map light.  I'm like...holy shit!  This is not even my car, no wonder I can't find the clutch, it's a friggin' automatic...lol.  I quickly grab my groceries and high-tail it out of that car.  I look over at the car beside me and there is someone sitting in it.  I look at them and throw my arms up and shrug my shoulders.  They were laughing, I just know it...lol.  Thank goodness it was dark so that the redness of my face could not easily be seen.  I scurried over to my car which was right in the row behind the wrong car...lol.  I threw my groceries into the seat, started the engine and thanked my lucky stars that there was indeed a clutch and it was right where I left it before...lol.  Note to all drivers, please make sure that you lock your car when you will be leaving it unattended.  You just never know who could be using it as a park bench or shelter...lol.  And that my friends is what is called "Pulling a Moe".
 
Now onto to some diet related things.  As I mentioned the other day, the hublet pulled my old stepper into the house for me.  Well I used it.  I used it for about 46 minutes straight.  That would be 46 minutes all in a row, one after the other...lol.  These 46 minutes have turned into the most pain I have felt in ages.  I have not known such pain since Kari introduced me to the butt crunching exercises...lol.  Not only could I not do any exercises last night but I proceeded to walk as though I had a pickle up me arse all day long...lol.  No one told me that riding the bike does not exercise your calves!  That dang stepper taught me that yes I do have calves and reminded me each and every time I tried to take a step yesterday and today...lol.  Because I dedicated myself to the challenge our WW leader put out for us, I did go and ride the bike tonight.  Not without pain to be sure but I did feel a little better after using the muscles again...lol.  Here is this evening's soundtrack.  Yes I did listen to Ding Dong the Witch is Dead.  I am going to put in the sharing folder on messenger for Kari as she will just crack up when she hears this version....lol.  Sooo here it is:
 
1.  Heartbeat, It's a Lovebeat - The Defranco Family
2.  Tears of a Clown - English Beat
3.  Love Generation - Bob Sinclair
4.  Ding Dong the Witch is Dead - Klaus Nomi
5.  Revenge - Madonna
6.  Bamboleo - Gipsy Kings
7.  Blister in the Sun - Violent  Femmes
8.  Walk Out to Winter - Aztec Camera
9.  Oh Canada - Five Iron Frenzy
 
I also did 120 crunches just for good measure...lol

Definitions of terms used in the above blog.
 
1.  Backward Driving Challenged - a person who experiences great difficulty backing up motor vehicles.  These people are quite often seen circling the parking lots in malls and grocery stores looking for the ideal parking spot that they can drive through to make it look like they backed into the parking space.
 
2.  Directionally Challenged - one who can be heard saying when told to turn left or right, which hand?  You have to show me which hand, as in, this one or that one while holding both hands up in front of their face.  They could also be heard saying my side or your side and sometimes, driver's side or passenger?
 
Well my friends, great losing to you all!
 
Cheers!
