What Was I Gonna Say Again?

My 1st Secret Santa Gift! Isn’t my Qbee Secret Santa gift adorable??! Thank you, Secret Santa! xoxox!

Welp, I had all these amazingly entertaining and interesting things to blog about (heh, right), but I forgot already. I hate it when I go days without journaling because then I forget everything I did. A short summary of last week: the usual–waking up early, taking Eenan to school, spending time with Jaylen, cleaning, making lunch, dinner, Mario’s lunch for work, laundry. Yeah, SO exciting! I also finished painting the apartment and Mary paid me today! Which was really unexpected and very much appreciated ! I had to give John some money, since he helped me out and because we owed him $10.

The new rentors started moving in so yesterday I was over there with the rentor’s brother (our other rentors) and his neices and nephews installing tiles . Then we went to pick Mary up at the airport (she was coming back from staying a week in Arizona). The boys were so excited to see her . All of last week Jaylen would look out the window and say, “Tell Nana to come down!” He’s so cute. He thought she was on the plane the whole week she was gone LOL. She brought us back some presents…just like Mary to be on vacation and still buying stuff for everyone else . She brought Jaylen one of those new flip-action Ninja Turtles, or whatever they’re called. She brought Eenan a Cartoon Network racing game for his Game Cube and she brought me a Hello Kitty tin with marshmallow candies in them and a Proud Heart Cat Beanie . I already had it, but since it’s about 2 inches longer than the one I already had (I thought they only sold them in 8 and 10″??), I kept it.

OH! Before I forget…another hilarious thing Jaylen did: I’d gotten out of the shower and realized I left my undies somewhere (had everything else but my underwear) and I pulled my tee over my feminine parts and peek out the door and ask Mario to get me some. Jaylen pops up in front of the door and notices I’m standing with my shirt pulled over myself and says, “Your weedos are cold, Mama?” (Weedos being what they call their privates). He’s a riot! He said Psycho Bitch today…which isn’t exactly something I should be laughing at but hearing his teeny voice say it was too damn cute. After biting my lip for a minute I told him never to say it again of course .

John spent the weekend again. He wasn’t going to come over because he thought Mario wasn’t getting out till really late today, but we told him he got out early on Sundays so Mario picked him up on his way home from work on Friday night. Thank God, too. I thought I was going to be incredibly bored all weekend.

Last night was a total disaster in Yajaira’s World of Cooking. I burned rice. Not once, but twice. It was John’s fault really. He was playing this flash movie that had Marvin Gaye’s “Let’s Get It On” playing in the background. I started watching it from the kitchen, while the rice was browning, and I jokingly tell John, “Ooh, that song makes me tingle in certain places”, just to freak him out and have him curl up, cover his ears and yell, “OhMyGod!”…and then the rice burned. Dammit. I salvaged as much as I could, because I just used up the last of the rice I had, and got to adding spices and boiling it. I was making Mole, and preparing the sauce and boiling the chicken and making sure the chicken was cooked correctly because I’m deathly afraid of poisoning my family with Salmonella…and I let the damn rice burn again. While it was boiling *slaps forehead*. Oh well. Needless to say, the husband had no rice for his Mole…but the Mole tasted pretty damn good when I was done. I had a pile of dishes to wash to top it off…didn’t get to bed last night till 1am. Thank goodness Mario didn’t go in till 12 today.

I went grocery shopping with Mary today and we bought the Christmas tree! It’s already in the stand in the living room and ready to be decorated. Noey and I’ll be putting the lights around it and waiting till Eenan gets home from school to finish the rest. The kids are so excited about Christmas this year .

Ok, it’s almost 12. Gonna go snuggle up next to the hubs and still-awake Jaylen and watch Spongebob.

LMFAO @ Psycho Bitch. I know it’s wrong to laugh when they say things like that, innocently, but it’s sounds SO cute! Maybe we should get you a matching domain called, “BurnedRice.com” LOL

Spongebob rocks πŸ˜› Weedos, that’s hilarious, in it’s own opps kinda way. For forgetting what to say, you seemed to write something. πŸ™‚ I just feel when I write that much no one’s going to read it all. Not that anyone reads it anyway, lol. Take care! I just started coming to your site, but I’m going to put it on my dailies. Later!
