Its nearly 3am and another train is passing through and just a blaring that darn whistle!! What the heck?? Shouldn't there be some sort of "law" or something that they can't blast the damn whistles after a certain time or something!! GRR!

Train blowing its whistle after 1am!!

OMG!! If I wasn't awake right now I would of just gotten woke up!! A train is coming through town and blasting its whistle! What the heck? Really at 1:18am you really need to blow the freaking horn? Is that really necessary??! I think not!

Facebook games - what are your faves?

Image
Awake and can't sleep since I took a mini nap earlier thanks to a migraine...do you get on Facebook and play the games? If so, what are some of your fave games on there??   Some of my favorites are Gourmet Ranch, I think I'm at level 140 or so, absolutely love that game and have to get everything new when they offer it like the ingredients etc. I have actually spent $5 or so on the keys to unlock the ingredients! Love the game!!   Another favorite of mine is Big Business, I absolutely love that game too, always been one of my favorites and I have recently spent a few dollars to upgrade and get the place running faster and better and its working

Getting a lot of migraine headaches lately

I'm not too sure why but I have been having a migraine headache every day for the past week. They really suck having migraines and nothing will help but laying down with a cold wash cloth on my forehead and even some days that didn't help that much. Tonight I had to take Excedrin PM that knocked me out a couple of hours before it would go away. Hubby says its probably because I've got so much on my mind andyea that is for sure true, I have a ton on my mind but not really stressed about anything and that is usually when I get them so I don't know hopefully it will stay away and not come back for awhile. The weird thing is that its only on the top right of my forehead.. Have a great weekend everyone.

Drug testing for Welfare - what do you think?

Well personally I think that its a great thing. When you go out there in the real world and you apply for a job, nearly all jobs these days make you take a drug test in order to pass it to get hired, I believe that it should be the same way for any welfare recipients. I definitely agree with it and I don't think that its unfair to anyone. If your needing the help, ok fine then you should be willing to do a drug test to prove that your not doing any drugs illegally and you can get help.   I think its ridiculous that people can get on welfare and you can look at some of them, not all and but sometimes you can just look and tell that they are on something! I mean come on it doesn't take a brain surgeon to see some of the ways that some people look different then others (not prejudice) just talking about the way that people look/act when they are on something and know that they shouldn't be etc but they get away with it and still get assistance. That crap needs to stop! ...

Half of the month gone already!

I can't believe that half of this month or actually a little more of it is already gone!! Where has it flown too?? Then here comes next month and for me, it will fly by until the new year is upon us.   Next month, my youngest turns 13 right before Halloween and then its Halloween and Thanksgiving and then my middle son turns 16 YIKES!!!!! And then its Christmas and the new year!! Wow.   Well this year since I just found out not that long ago that Wal-mart is doing the layaway from Oct 17th I believe it is (on a Monday) until the week or so before Christmas on only Electronics and toys, each item has to be $15 and above to put it on lay a way. But anyway since they are doing that, I thought that I would try that this year  and then I can just go up there or online or however they do it and pay a little each week or every other week etc and by the week before Christmas have everything that they need!! YAY! So that's less stress on me since I sometimes have this thi...

Segregation in Little Rock!!

First, here is the link so that you can read this for yourself.  http://news.yahoo.com/little-rock-desegregation-plans-back-court-170941600.html Now on to my opinion and thoughts about this. Really this is 2011, what on earth is going on in this country?? Is it me or didn't we end this stuff back years and years ago?? I think that its ridiculous that this is still going on and the thing that really gets to me is that their are a few schools  in Little Rock that get $70 Million dollars for the schools that are involved in the segregation!!! What in the world?? Really $70 million???? That money could be going to all schools here in the US not that much just needs to go to a few schools that is just crazy!!!! Maybe I am reading it wrong or maybe I just don't understand it but I really don't understand how anyone can be like that and have anything like this going on in the year 2011!!! I just don't get it or understand it. I think that this is ridiculous and I real...

Wow Netflix loses 1 million customers!

Well for me, I am glad that they changed it because I wasn't getting or watching the dvd's that much anyway. I would have one on my list, get it and watch it and then watch the movies online and forget that I had the darn DVD of the other movie and end up keeping it for a few weeks or so and that was just a waste of time and money.   I can't believe that they lost a million customers though! Geez that is really something. I guess with all of the competition out there that is going on these days its hard but I didn't expect them to lose that many because of the price changes. I enjoy it the way that it is now and between Netflix and then renting the top movies at the redbox and watching movies on graboid which is one of the best things because you just download them once and then thats it and you have them forever if you want. I pay $5 a month and I have quite a collection of some of my favorite movies.   Netflix I think is still a good deal because I still go o...

101 year old woman gets evicted!!

http://news.yahoo.com/101-old-detroit-woman-evicted-foreclosure-191726499.html This is just unbelievable!!! And the son is too blame! The house was fully paid off, she was living there 58 years and then HER son decides to talk her into signing the house into a reverse mortgage and took $32,000 that the son supposively said that he fixed the roof and 2 doors for $14,000 and the guy that interviewed him said well where is all the money and he said well its gone now that was back in 2003!!! What the heck??? Really?? And he was getting the eviction notices for a YEAR and hiding them and throwing them away so she wouldn't know and the lady was put out on the street corner and her medicines thrown in the dumpster and her sitting in her wheelchair ALL day long from 9am-9pm!!!!!!!!!!!! Really this is what America is doing to our elderly?? This is what a 65 year old freaking man does to his OWN MOTHER???????? He was supposed to be paying on it and doesn't!! What a complete jerk!!!

Marriage - is divorce even an option??

Well from what I just read that Will Smith said about it..maybe its not even an option for some...My opinion of it is this, why do you stay married to someone that doesn't make you happy?? Because there are kids involved? Well isn't that a good enough reason to separate or divorce because you don't want your kids seeing you not happy? Or maybe its better just to stay together and go through life all together and act like your a happy family when only you and your spouse and your children I'm sure know the truth.      Its hard in today's society especially when the economy is like it is and things are going up up up in prices like a gallon of milk or even a loaf of bread, the simplest things that we need and have to buy are going up in prices yet this country has how many millions of unemployed people in it right now?? And more to come! So maybe its better to stay together as a family and not have to pay 2 rents or 2 electric bills and just deal with each othe...

I want to get back into my blogging, since after all I am the Queen of Random :) Have a great day everyone and thank you for those that follow me.

Are kids responsible enough for netbooks in high school?

So I don't know but I am having doubts about this whole netbook thing. My kids are all teens, well youngest will be in a month and a half. And they are good kids, no trouble out of them or anything like that but they aren't all that great with responsibility of things sometimes. They have each misplaced there cells at one point, yes I know we have all done that but the point is that the schools are giving each high schooler (my son being a Freshman) a netbook and they are too take care of it and it is their's for the remainder of the time they are in school!! So since he is a Freshman, he will have it this year when they give it to him next week and have it for 4 years of high school...is that asking a little much out of them to keep up with a netbook for 4 years and keep it with them acting like it was a million dollars or something I mean come on really? And they are going to be giving the middle schoolers there's next year. So that will mean that the 7th and 8th ...

Kids finally start school Monday!! YAY!

So this coming Monday my kids finally get to start school. I think that its totally ridiculous and just insane how behind and unorganized that they are with the schools here now.   They misplaced my son's paper so they said..but they didn't!! They just made us go up there and freaking sit there in the fancy fancy FANCY office that is good enough to have a huge flat screen TV on the wall but too good to have the old fashioned clocks on the walls!!! Yep not a clock on the wall in site! Instead they had a black thing scrolling the time, I didn't even see that but my son did. PATHETIC!!!!! And not only did the receptionist have a too much of a fancy freaking desk for a little counselor's office but she not only had a regular desktop PC with a flat screen big monitor but also a laptop!! Good grief!!!!! Then we go in the counselor's office and her's is the same way huge room, big shelves, circular desk, built in filing cabinets and a flat screen for her desktop...

Did you know?

Did you know that the month of July and August both have 31 days? I swear I always forget that and think that its weird that both of those months right after the other have 31 days...

Last weekend in July

Last weekend in July, wow! This year is flying by...literally!   Its been a busy and chaotic month for me and my family. At the beginning of July, Leon started college and the following week I started my training. I have taken 3 assessments for my training so far and then next week I have 4 days of class left for the billing cycle and then I start taking calls!!! Nervous about it but I'm sure I will catch on after the first few calls..its nerve wrecking not knowing what they are calling in for. At least with some of the others I know what to expect, placing orders, checking status etc Then after a week I think that the training for the tech part starts on the 11th or so and that lasts a couple of weeks and then done. Then I will do the week of nesting for the tech and then I will take the Final test and start work with no more training! YAY!   My step daughter, who is like a daughter to me, got married this past week!! And not only that but they got a house too after ...
