Bitches love me.

I do not know if that's actually true in this case...

but I do have 93 pageviews.

I still have only one follower & that's Will. My fiance.

&& he doesn't even read this blog!

Can someone give a little feedback?

How am I doing?

Too Boring?

Getting there?

Maybe the problem is my schedule & not posting every single day?...I might be on to something here!

I'll try my best to get in at least a teensy-weensy post everyday!

Keep your fingers crossed that "the farm" happens...along with the organic cattle raising thing.

I might be a farmgirl/cowgirl yet!

Much love,
Jenn

Will is finally coming home...

Will has been in Colorado hunting since last Tuesday! He shot an eight point mule deer Sunday...so excited to get that meat in the freezer. It is going to be delicious.

Things have been a little different around the house without him. I've cleaned it....

I have figured out that I don't especially like having to take a dog out on leash!

We have one dog that is 10 yrs old...I've had her since she was a puppy & she doesn't go on a leash unless we're in a public place that requires it.

That's Roxy checking the pool out at my parents'...a few minutes before she fell in!

The 10 mth old puppy requires a leash or I need an extra dose of anxiety medicine!

 That's Rotty at about 3 or so months... 

He stays in the yard (knocking on wood here) but it just freaks me out because he's so young and playful...not to mention that the crazy cat lady lives across the street from us. He hasn't had any interaction with cats, so I'm not totally sure what his reaction could be off of the leash.

Moving on...I don't really like sleeping by myself anymore. I am so used to him cuddling me up each night, it's a little hard to sleep in this huge bed with only Roxy taking up his side of the bed.

 I'm used to a little snoring in my ear. Or telling him to take off his glasses before he ruins them.

That's Will...before I remind him to take the glasses off. This is such a flattering picture; I should've learned how to post these before now. bwahahahaha.

Come to think of it: maybe I just miss being the boss. Of everything. Not that I really want to be; I can't seem to help myself.

Posting pictures is awesome...it'll let anyone besides "the flyer" get to know me...or feel like you know me.

This is my bestest friend in the world, Eric, & I about a year ago...

and this is me on that same night...we were totally drinking lots of red wine!



and this is what happens when I let Will take pictures of me...

OMG. How scary is that? No wonder the dogs get a little "shy" when i want to smile at them!




and this is how I look right now. as I'm typing this. ha. this was a couple years ago.



this is me saying WTF? Who picked this one out. It totally looks like I'm yawning & talking. NOTE: this is not the dress I picked! I won't put pictures on here until after the wedding!


Sooo. I guess I've humiliated myself enough tonight. I'll reconsider drinking 2 beers & blogging later. For the moment I'm loving it.

At least you can never say I didn't show my true colors on my blog!

Much love, bitches!

I'm on a roll...

So. I did all of the burritos yesterday afternoon/evening. It wasn't hard, but kind of a pain in that I had to stand at the counter forever, kept getting greasy/yucky fingers. But, but. They will be worth it when Will comes home late from work & wants a snack instead of a huge meal....

I also went ahead and cooked the vegetable soup...just waiting on me now to put it in jars.

On to more important things...

My sister & I got into a huge fight lastnight. You see Mom has been at her house helping her for, oh, let's say, 3 weeks. uh huh.

My sister started with texting me telling me that I should've been hanging out with Dad, checking on him, making sure he had everything he needs. MY PARENTS ARE NOT FEEBLE OR ELDERLY. So, I'm like "what?". We text back & forth a few times & I decided to call her & try to figure out what was really going on. Needless to say that conversation spiralled out of control in short order...she took some low blows which comes as no shock to me. But it hurts all the same. I ended the conversation with some extremely naughty words. She deserved them, she was totally acting the part.

Let's hope everything rights itself before too long. I see some therapy in the future if we ever expect this relationship to work out!

sooo. i'm sorry.

I haven't been blogging lately. For almost a month, right. I am sorry...not that I really have any loyal followers yet...except I will give a shout out to my homie "the flyer" woot woot.


So here's a rundown on what's been going on in my life:

• Last Saturday was the last day at "Moose Creek"...that's where I work nights during the summer at an "exclusive members only" golf club. Nice place. Weird people. I love the money that comes in with that job, but am also thankful that it's over this year. I feel like Will & I never got any quality time together.

• My job that I work part-time throughout the year is pissing me off.  I won't write all those things here!

• I am still *kinda* planning my wedding. Not that it's off or anything, but I just haven't had the time.

Seriously, I have towels in the washer that are going to have to be re-washed. Hopefully I'll do that tonight.

• Will left for Colorado on Tuesday. He's with some friends doing some hunting. He has a tag for an elk & a tag for a mule deer. I hope he brings home both. The animals, not the tags!

&& this leaves me home by myself! Not cool. Although I still have the 38 & I'm still ready to shoot it! *please don't make me have to shoot that damn thing*


I had it all worked out to do some "freezer cooking". I love this concept. & I figured with Will out of town for 10 days I'd have time. So I started that yesterday. I froze the following:


3 qts Chicken Stock
5 pts Chicken Stock
6 qts Lentil Soup
4 pts Lentil Soup
24 Lime Juice Cubes


I have ready to put together/make:


1 Huge Pot of Vegetable Soup (maybe 6 - 8 qts)
30 burritos (chix, rice, 2 kinds of beans, cheez & onion)
      I'll make different mixtures of all that.
48 (at least) Banana Nut Muffins
24 - 48 Homemade Dinner Rolls
1 - 2 Loaves Bread


Looks good to me. Lots of food...makes me happy.


Now on to something that is really pissing me off:


Snow is in the forecast. I mean it's coming. At Midnight. Where we live: 3 - 6". Will is out of town. I hate to drive in the snow. hate. it. Which means I probably won't go to the office tomorrow! woot woot.


I have food. No ice is expected so I should have power. My doggies will be with me. I'm good. After a stop at Lowes to get some ice melt for the porch steps...would hate to slide down those suckers.


So I don't really have anything else...I've been reading lots of blogs, just haven't been commenting, which I totally need to do! && I need to learn how to put pictures on here...if it snows enough I'd like to show yall how beautiful it gets here in the mountains!

people are ballsy...

so i'm sitting in my (public) office minding my own business.

reading a blog. noooo. seriously. it's what i do in my down time. shame.

in walks a man. ( that smells like alcohol, not  the rubbing kind, either. )

he gets right to the point. "i have to pee really bad. can i use your bathroom?"

i reply "i'm sorry, but we do not have a public restroom."

him "but i have to pee really bad."

me "i'm sorry, but our restroom is not for the public."

him "i'm gonna go pee behind the building" with a look of defiance.

me "that's fine. the owner of this building lives upstairs & if he sees you he is not going to be happy" with fire in my eyes.

seriously? where did you come from? & why in the hell would you think not only think it's acceptable to pee behind this building....you also think it's acceptable to forewarn me?

and why can't i think of witty responses in good time? he took me aback, for sure. but, damn. i could've come up with something, right?!

i am not kidding you. there is a freak magnet somewhere in my body. or maybe it's the brainwaves i send out.

my life is funny.

telling friends about your blog...

i was reading a blog the other day...i don't recall which one. if you recognize it you can remind me...then i'll link it.

so she was talking about should i/shouldn't i tell my family & friends that i write a blog?!

i'm going with shouldn't. there are 4 people in my "real life" that know about this blog. i like it that way.

i tend to write things that i may not say...all because i know that a. not many people actually look at my blog & b. chances are you don't actually know me.

so i'm safe. i mean i'm not incredibly mean or anything. but this is my territory. i will write exactly what i'd like here. you can complain, but  i probably won't change it.

my sis knows about this blog. she doesn't read it. or she'd be pissed that i contemplated bitch slapping her while she was wheelchair bound. she hasn't said a word.

so, again, i'm good. people in my real life don't even bother reading this.

love it.

the answer to "did you bitch slap her?"...

no. i didn't. she didn't whine or cry or anything. so i never hit her. it would've been funny, though!

i did get really sick. on the way down there i started feeling unwell. that was thursday. i went to the doctor down there on monday. he said an upper respiratory infection but no antibiotics. what?!

we came back home on tuesday. wednesday i was back at the doctor. i had/have bronchitis, acute sinusitis & pharyngitis...not cool. i'm still on antibiotics, still not feeling well. i mean i cannot do anything without being wiped out!

so i'm just chillin'. waiting to get back to myself.

we did see some really good friends over the weekend...we made plans for "scarowinds" in a couple weeks. will & i are so excited! && we're going to a friend of wills that same weekend for a halloween party. i haven't met him or his family, so that should be cool.
