April Fools
Well its just a couple of hours away, but close enough.
Anyone who knows our family knows we are a bunch of tricksters. We will go to great lengths to fool someone. We are always trying to one-up the other guy.
After returning home from Mexico where the car Gene was driving was stolen...yes stolen in 5 minutes never to be found again, I was coming home from youth group with my devilish teenage kids when we got the brilliant idea to fake steal Genes Bronco. I having a set of keys with me made it very easy to pull off the prank. When it was all said and done we laughed up a storm at our witty prank. All but Gene that is. Well over the years it has become harder and harder to one up the other guy with out breaking the law or endangering life and or limb.
My vote for the best prank in the last 5 years was the "BIG HOUSE SELL"
Warren and Joe were always telling us we we got old they were going to put us in a home and sell all our stuff. HAHA, big funny!
Well Gene and I had been gone to the coast for a few days and as we were driving down our street returning home we saw about 6 realtor for sale signs in our yard. Real funny boys, out drinking beer and swiping realty signs. When I unlock the front door to go in I am really freaked out. There is not one stick of furniture no pictures NOTHING!! I can see into part of the kitchen and dining area and it is also bare. Right now this is not too funny. When I come around the corner to the family room I see all of my stuff crammed in there. Do you have any idea how much effort it took to move all that stuff into there? I tell you they have never displayed that much energy to me in all their lives, yet they pulled this off in a very short period of time. Good job boys, you fooled ol Mom. Wasn't quite as much fun putting it all back, but worth the effort.
One year Joe called frantic to find his dad. Says he was trying to weld something on his truck and caught his truck on fire. This resulting in damage to the garage he had it in. Real funny Joe had it not been so believable. You see stuff happens to Joe.Stuff, just stuff. Aw, you wouldn't understand. Well I have a little more time to try to conjure up something. Hate to say but the drive to compete is waning. Maybe I'll just sit back and let them think they got me again.

MENOWHAT ??
Well it is 6 a.m. Friday and I have been awake since 4 a.m. I have done this most of the week and I am ready to scream. Sues diagnosis is menopause.EEWWW!! Now I know that I'm 51 but I have had no symptoms of menopause. No hot flashes. no nothing. So you are telling me all of a sudden menopause has hit me with insomnia??
I'm calling foul!
I don't think this is fair. I have paid my dues with childbirth, pms, pimples etc. So come on mother nature give me a break. Make all those girly parts behave.
I cry easily, but to shed tears because daffodils on my table are so pretty... now isn't that a little over the top?
I'm also sometimes a little touchy about certain things, but to want to inflict bodily harm on Gene for asking me how many girl scout cookies I have eaten...a little physco don't ya think?, Really I wanted to beat him over the head with the empty box. YES I said EMPTY.
Okay, maybe I am having a few symptoms but come on...
If they would just cut me loose with my vacuum and let me clean up every speck of sawdust on the new house, I think I could calm down a little.
As of now Gene has forbid me to appear while any workers are on the premises. Whatever!!
Okay I feel better having gotten that off my chest.
Leaving at noon for a quick trip to Rexburg to see my baby...oh and also Joe and Kelsey.
Picture on Monday. Pass the premarin please.

ZOOM ZOOM ZOOM
I can't believe this week has just flew by. We put our house on the market Monday and have already had some lookers. It is so hard to be constantly clean, neat, and tidy.
Thursday I selected my granite pieces and finalised the tile choices. It's really coming together now. The hardwood floors start on Monday and cabinets should go in Thursday. I am really having to reign myself in from going on a buying spree. It would be dumb at this point when I'm really not sure what I'll need.
I am really looking forward to living so close to my sister. It will be so nice to have someone to hang out with and do projects with. She really motivates me to get things done. Or maybe it's competition. Either way I seem to accomplish a lot more with her.
I gave her a bolt of upholstery fabric on Monday and she called me this morning to tell me she had finished upholstering a chair already. See what I mean? I have had that fabric for 4 years with good intentions.
Come on spring
Stop teasing us
Boo daylight savings
Boo April 15
Yeah Easter
Yeah spring break
My big son will be 30 April 3
I miss my baby Chance
I need to see my grass turn green
