My friend Julie got me playing this game called Farm Town through Facebook. I tried it out because if Julie likes it... I am so hooked. I have three friends and three cousins playing. You pick your facebook friends has neighbors and you farm your land. You plant crops and have people harvest them for you. If someone else harvests you and they get more coins (to in turn by more crops, etc). You can always help people out while they are gone and get additional coins. You can gift (once a day) something to people. Animals or trees (I like the trees as it grows fruit which makes coins). There is a marketplace where you can hire and be hired for work. You can expand your garden as you gain experience. You have to keep an eye on your crops or they will die before harvested. You can chat with your friends and visit their farms. It is pretty cute!

Where or where can my little Di be?
My heart just hasn't been into it. I have been twittering so much. It is so nice because I have so little to say, I don't even use my 140 characters.
Siobhan has another month and a half for school. Can't believe it. They have a lot of "end of the year activities". Trying to get Diego excited about school next year. He is mostly scared although it helps that he sees his teacher at S's school functions.
Trying to go things around here but it is slow going. Cleaning up rooms, painting (Bradley), get palms planted, etc.
Diego needs a haircut. WHY are haircut places closed on Sunday? What does that mean? We go to Rainbow kids which closes at something like 6pm during the week so that leaves Saturday if you are a parent who works outside of the home. What if my Saturday is already full? Not to mention that means every working parent is trying to get there on Saturday. Stupid if you ask me. Sunday is the day I take the time to say "What could I get done today that I might not completely hate doing?" Well, not taking the kids for a haircut I guess. Maybe I will go to Supercuts because it appears they ARE open on Sunday. So take that stupid Rainbow kids that isn't very kid friendly because it isn't open all weekend. Alright, so I thought I would clarify and they are open. Oops, sorry!

Day 3 of "vacation"
Hmm, let's see what I have done so far. About nothing. I did color my hair so most of the grey is now unnoticeable. We went to the market, Target (to get what I forgot at the market) and still somehow need jelly. We met Eric for dinner last night, that was nice.
I keep waiting for this "rain". Yeah right. It probably will rain the day I go back to work.
Siobhan and I go to Disneyland on Monday (for free!) for some Bibbity Bobbity Boutique they are having before it opens to the public.
Today, nothing again I think. I kinda enjoy doing nothing as long as the kids can play in the backyard.

Vacation from work coming up!
I am going to enjoy 8 days off work. Siobhan has a week and a half off for Easter so I thought I would take some time off too. We might go to the beach a couple of days, put the blow up pool in the back, go to the Santa Ana zoo, park, who knows. The road is open!
I am looking forward to sleeping in a bit. Usually whenever I am off I still have to get up and take someone to school, but not this time!
I go back to work on a Thursday and then hopefully Eric will be off that Thursday and then Friday is his flex.
No big plans for Easter. An egg hunt of course. Anyone else have any plans?

Where have I been?
Well where have YOU been? No one comes here anymore why should I? Truth be told there is so much crap going on over here there is nothing I want to write about.
Yesterday one of my friend's called and told me that Disneyland is having a new hair/make up for girls and before they do it for the public they are going to have people come and try it out. Her husband works there so they put Siobhan's name on the RSVP list. How cool is that? We need some cool over here.
I hope everyone out in internet land is well. Things could pretty much only get better. I think my moons are out of alinement or something.

Six weeks until Easter
So Ash Wednesday rolls around and I have to give something up for Lent. A sacrifice. Eric says jokingly "you should give up the DS". hee hee REAL funny.
I thought about it. It WOULD be a sacrifice. Although I don't play as much as before, I really enjoy playing the DS. So, I can not play for six weeks. SIX WEEKS. As if that were not enough of a sacrifice, look what game comes out today.

All I have to say is when I die, I should get some kind of fast pass right to the gates. No waiting in line for this girl! haha
I am even going to order it I think. I know what I will be doing all day Easter. What do you mean you want to eat? You want to hunt for eggs? Baskets? yeah right. I am busy!

Little Miss F*&^ing Sunshine
Last weekend we watched Little Miss Sunshine. That was a really cute movie. Remember the part where the horn keeping beeping on its own? That was so funny. Eric and I were cracking up.
Last night K and I went to Albertson's for some cupcake stuff. When we were leaving there was a loud honking, two times. K said "Was that you?" I said no, I bet it was that guys alarm. We had a whole conversation on how annoying it would be to live near someone with such a loud alarm.
About half way home, my horn went mmppbbeepp. Oh crap. You have GOT to be kidding me! I said I am little miss bleeping sunshine. This can not be happening. We pulled into the driveway, mrrbeep. crap!
I can't believe it. My car was in the shop two different times in the last week. A Eurovan is NOT cheap to repair. I guess at least I don't have a dead grandpa in the trunk.

Bad Dream
Early this morning I was dreaming that I was going to Europe for a while. I was going to look for an apartment (not sure why, but hey sounds good!) It was decided I would take Diego with me. I was at this house waiting for the train to take us to the airport and talking to some people. This lady walks over and looks at me, reaches in my wallet to get some change. She said "I'm sorry but we can't find your boy". I looked over and he wasn't there.
I woke up and thought, I am not going to dream this but still freaked out. About 30 seconds later, Diego came into my room and said "I want to lay with you". Oh my gosh!
That would NEVER happen. I keep them close, and he would be on my lap. I am a freak about knowing where they are. I don't understand people who let kids run wild in different places.
That was so weird he came in. He comes in around 7 everyday, but it was still dark outside. Ah, just what I needed though!

My friend Mackey sent this to me. It was too good not to share.
A woman goes into the drugstore & says to the pharmacist.
"I need poison."
Pharmacist replies "I can't sell you that ma'am"
The woman then shows her marriage certificate to the pharmacist.
"Oh! Sorry," he replied.
"I didn't know you had the prescription."

new job
I had to go the The Home Depot and decided to take Diego with me. When we walked in, a worker told me they have a kids workshop on the first Saturday of every month. We went to check it out. Not only is it free, he was given a apron that he gets to keep and a pin to put on it (you get one for each task). This months item was a treasure/jewerly box. We had to put the velvet on, glue it and put the stickers on the side and the heart on the top.He had such a good time. He carried that thing around the whole store, two hands, making sure it made it home safely. We will be visiting again next month.

Free B Movies
Last night I found a video podcast that has free B movies. I download Night of the Living Dead. Classic! Eric heard me playing it and he said "I love that podcast!" Of course he already knew about it! They have other classics like Reefer Madness, They Cane from Beyond Space, Little Shop of Horrors, Killers from Space and Attack of the Giant Leeches. I haven't seen that last one, but the based on the name it is a must see!
There are currently 51 to choose from. Full length and free. Not to mention the crazy Pope like guy. I found it on iTunes, of course! Here is the link to find it on iTunes The Cult of UHF.
Hey, Right Reverend Chumley, I would like to see Attack of the Killer Tomatoes!
Check it out!

Disneyland was GREAT
Not only did Siobhan get in for free to Disneyland on her birthday, she got a 2fer ticket. I did as well, so later this month we will be going back to hit California Adventure which neither of us have been too. (Eric and I will be taking Diego soon as well!)
It was not crowded so the wait time for the rides was no more than 15 minutes for most. They gave Siobhan a "Happy Birthday Siobhan" button and every cast member said "Happy Birthday". Most said "Happy Birthday Princess" which of course, she loved.
The longest line was about an hour and 15 minutes. We knew it was to see the Princesses but we didn't know exactly. By then my feet were killing me! We got in and she got to sit with a Princess alone and talk. Oh man! That was so worth it. Then she got to see two more Princesses. I took a bunch of photos (to follow soon) and that was her favorite part.
We really had a good time.

Drama Mama and Di
I did it. I finally got to meet Drama Mama. She was here from Arizona to go to Disneyland. I told her we HAD to meet. Disneyland is about 2 miles away. We got a chance to meet for the first time in person and talk some, but not long enough! So glad to have finally seen you in person!
