Winners!

*photo by designladen.com*


We actually had winners. I can't really believe it. It turns out that two Someones figured it out. Or lucked out.

  1. I am an excellent mathematician.
    2. I hate math. I'm not good at it

  2. Math is the only thing I've ever failed a class in
    3. I've only failed classes that I neglected to withdraw from. Don't ask

  3. I sang in front of a U.S. President
    4. Although I did sing in my high school Madrigals, I never even got close

  4. I love seafood
    5. That would be a strong word

  5. Seafood is what happens when I'm served inedible food
    6. I don't hate seafood

  6. I enjoy street racing
    7. I HATE street racing

  7. My truck has been stuck in a clam bar up to it's axles
    8. Yes. Sigh. Hubbend is adventurous. It took a really big tow truck and he barely beat the tide. I'm so glad I only saw it in pictures. I may have said unforgivable things.


The lucky winners are . . . Lisa at One Mom's Eating Recovery, and Elizabeth at My Backdoor. Sooo, Lisa and Elizabeth. What is your pleasure. Or shall I say, pick your poison? Do you want me to pick pictures for one of your posts? Or guest post for you? Or do you want me to . . . gulp . . . never visit your blog again?

I'm waiting on pins and needles. Congratulations!

Also? I went grocery shopping. Tina? Did you too? How are all of your goals going? Sorry I've been so busy lately.

    You are a funny woman. Hey - I wish I even had a truck! Then lots of people want to be your friend when they have sh*t to schlep.

    I like what your profile says about revealing the person you thought you left behind.
    Good writing - expressing a thought that I know is true for so many of us.
    The trainwreck - a great metaphor as well.
    Looking forward to more!

    Oh my!! I was right :)

    You have to visit my blog still, I would miss you way too much!!

    I'll have to think on it. I'm just excited that I guessed right.

    @ Leslie- Why thank you. I've always aspired to be funny. I wanted to make my older brother laugh! We no longer have that truck. I think Hubbend may have cried at night about it. But he's the one that crashed the thing. Like I said. Adventurous.

    @ anne h- I'm glad you think I've got good writing. I'm hoping not to leave myself behind anymore. Yeah, the trainwreck might not be metaphorical...I might not be the best person to ask. :) Welcome!

    @ Lisa- Don't worry. You don't have to choose anything. I have to follow through with my offer though. I am at your mercy madame.

    @ kathyj333- thank you!

    now to work out, and make dinner, and be mommy dearest. :D

It's Here

We got the moving truck rather unexpectedly. It's more expensive than Mr. Survival planned, so we're doing a lot of lifting, cardio, and squats. No. We're not doing the bootcamp in a trailer. We ARE moving things to the new garage, since we can't move in yet, but they're being kind enough to let us dump in a storage manner. Sorry. I'll have to beg your forgiveness and promise to update you. Eventually.

I Found True Happiness

It feels like I've become a detached voice, writing but not feeling on this blog.  I'm living a lot of things that don't fit neatly into my bloggable ownership file. Even now, I've spent an hour with this tab open to write a new post and I've done absolutely everything else possible.  For once I can't put a finger on what I'm feeling.  I don't fit into any definable box. On one hand, I'm spending an hour in therapy with Chickadee and another hour round trip three times a week. Mr. Survival is fighting off unemployment blues. We cannot shake things up and have me go to work. I'm not going to go to FitBloggin'11 . But, on the other hand, Chickadee is STANDING in the stander for minutes instead of seconds! Chickadee is grasping things momentarily for the first time in eighteen months. I'm so in love with Mr. Survival it's unbelievable. We are tighter as a family than we ever have been. I'm stressed and frustrated.  I...

Flying With Concrete

Today I wanted to write about my dreams. Full of hope and bliss and fulfillment. Yeah, I sound about as light as a bucket of cement. Ready to fly away. Hang on, while I toss out the top of the pile. Maybe that will help me find my lofty aspirations. Nope. Thing is, I'm remembering today that I'm afraid of heights. Really. Once Hubbend made me climb up three stories of scaffolding. Broke it all down for me and left me no other choice. Made me feel irreplaceable. Yes, we must remember that I am crazy friends. Leave it to me to feel important by being told to go up a towering structure of death. I did it though. And I even wired a speaker while I was up there. But I'm still afraid of heights. So. Do you wanna help me out today? For every comment that tells me something someone wants to be able to do that they can't do now I will do one minute of exercise. Really. Because of my child care situation, it will have to be tomorrow morning. So have at it. ...
