I ate a "snow apple"

Yes I did, I am feeling a bit down that Winter is still here, it missed the memo, it slept in, it cheated and it is so darn wrong! So I went out, plopped down in the middle of the snow, made a "snow apple" and ate it. This is what I have figured out about sitting in the snow eating "snow apples" pretending its Not still winter:

1.My butt froze solid, it very wierd when you can't feel your own butt, you know its there, but still...............
2."snow apples" taste wayyy to much like snow
3.Pretending its winter when its summer, is alot more fun then pretending its summer in the winter
4.After my sixth "snow apple" I had to pee very badly, but couldn't move because my butt was frozen to the snow
5.Yes your butt can freeze to the snow
6.I would give for some global warming

This and That

We went to Bangor yesterday, It was fun. I love to shop! We got the girls new Easter dresses and Evs an Easter outfit, he won't wear button ups and vests and its not worth the fight so we bought him just a shirt and pant set with dinosaurs, he picked it out himself and loves it, besides it was on sale and cheap! I bought the clothes at the Burlington Coat Factory, my absolute favorite place to buy clothes.
It snowed, I believe I mentioned that, I posted pics of the recent snowfall on my Favorite blog.

My brother Michael is divorced, his (now ex) kind of went crazy (my opinion). My brother James is moving with his sister Melissa and her kids to Mo. I hope he will be happy wherever he goes.

We rented Charlottes Web and I have to say it was a HUGE disappointment, don't bother watching it, the voice of Charlotte was done by Julia Roberts and its horrible, her voice drives me crazy throughout the movie.
We also watched Eregon, it was okay, predictable and seemed like a amateur job over all, I wouldn't recommend it and won't watch it again, I haven't read the books, I intend to though and then we shall see how well the movie was followed.

Time for breakfast!

Finally, its been a while I know

I am still alive. Yea.
Would you believe that it is snowing?raining a little too, but also definitely snow.
Els has discovered her feet, she now holds on to them every chance she gets ( maybe she's afraid of losing them again? )
I finished Aveyond, beat the bad guy and all that, it is a fun game. (repeat)
A website you should check out if you like fonts: www.fonts101.com . I think I will add some of my favorite links to the permanent info on the front of mamacow, look for that, also a playlist of my favorite music, be wary of that though because I really do like a bit of everything.
April already, I didn't play a single Aprils fools joke yesterday :( ah well there is always next year, if I remember :)
Joff has plans for a huge garden this year, there are little cups all over the house in every window and every available shelf, little green shoots are coming up and Joff has transplanted to bigger cups for some of the taller plants.

Aveyond, the rest is rambling nonsense

I have discovered this very interesting game, I normally spend my time on the computer editing photo's, typing up emails, or and mostly surfing, I love to read and there is alot to read online, but lately I am guilty of mostly just playing Aveyond (it can be found here :
www.amaranthia.com ) it lots of fun.
So we saw another moose or actually I think it might be the same one, don't know, this time I have pictures and will be posting them on my Favorite blog, uh, probably tomorrow.
Spring has yet to arrive although mud season is in full swing, it has warmed up to a balmy (ha, ha) 40-50 degree's "most" days, I tell you what I am not putting away the thermal underwear yet, waaaaay to early.
I am (was ) YW counselor at church and was released today, kind of sad, it was lots of fun.
Easter is only two weeks away! Oh excitement! Last year the party was at our house and in the end we had to take up the carpet the candy would not come out for anything! I have giving my yard a stern talking to, ( I am slightly off my rocker, I acknowledge this ) I demanded that any and all traces of snow and mud be gone , that grass at least be attempting to make an appearance and that the smelly waterfowl be banned to an appropriate pen of adequate size, by Easter, do I expect these demands to be met? Not in the least, but I can wish:)
All of a sudden is eerily quiet in here, I can here the wall clock ticking, the lights are flickering and oh no was that a draft from an opening door! Okay, okay, but it is quiet all of a sudden. No complaints about that. I am seriously running out of ramblings.
Oh wait favorite quote for today:

"I only feel bad I don't feel worse"

I will look up who said it later.

My headache, skip this post.

I am miserable, yuck, I have had a headache for oh about five days now and the bloody thing won't go away, I even tried drinking water, lots of it, at appropriate intervals, I hate water, hate it, nasty stuff, of course I am have been nauseous too, and that makes drinking water worse, I gave up on Tylenol two days ago, I am going to see the doctor.

I love quotes, There are people out there that can just say the right thing, I am a Mark Twain fan, one of my favorite quotes of his:

"When we remember that we are all mad, the mysteries disappear and life stands explained."

Very true.

"Either I have been missing something or nothing has been going on" Karen Gordon

With the fog of a headache that I have, I would guess I have been missing a lot.
I am going to choke down another glass of water and search desperately for some really strong medication

Good health to you ( no curse implied )

Today. Hows that for an original title?:)

I am desperate to feel like I have accomplished something today and I can't think, I am having a its-rainy-cold-muddy-gross-headache-day. Tonight we are having cold pasta salad, you know, diced chicken, cheese, pasta, tomatoes, cucumbers, green peppers and a sprinkle of Italian dressing, cooked in the morning, it marinates all day in the fridge and its good for you too.
Today is the official day Maine became a State, Today is also my sisters birthday, sadly she lost her baby girl at 6 months pregnant yesterday.

St.Patricks is close upon us, I have been out trampling in the mud and half melted snow to find a clover (any clover, two leaves is fine with me) but if there everywhere any here the geese ate them, despicable geese, its the same with birds, I have been really wanting to test out my new long lens on something besides the geese and stop signs (don't ask) but Wolfy keeps a strict anti-bird real estate law in place, which is very annoying at times, I KNOW there is wildlife out there, but between the geese and the dogs (and maybe my new neighbors who are being very noisy building a new house grrrr) they (the wildlife) stay far away.

May the geese be far from you and may your dog utter no bark.

Felicity and Alice

Yesterday Felicity and Alice were playing with there "My Little Pony's" The new miniture ones, well they were fighting over a pony spoon, which appeared to be almost invisible is was so small, Felicity was claiming it was part of a set (and we all know you should NEVER break up a set!) and Alice claimed she needed it for her pony to eat her icecream with and here is the interesting part:
Felicity said "Alice give me that spoon or I will snot on you" Alice drew back in shock as Felicity proceeded to sniff in a big one Alice said "You wouldn't! Thats gross!" Felicity letting a little drip out her nose said for effect said "Yep I would" Alice quickly handed over the spoon, turned to me and said "Mommy, Felicity needs a wipe!" and then turning away to get all of her stuff together she muttered under her breathe "shees thats disgusting"
