Things are moving along

There is something wrong with blogger right now where I cannot edit my template. I'm not really digging what I've made on my own. Hopefully blogger will fix whatever is wrong and I can get the blog looking a little better.

In the meantime...Add my button to your blog, leave comments (on my whole 3 blog posts, 2 of which are NOTHING!). Subscribe! Follow! Find me on twitter!

Vicious Cycle

Laundry piles on the floor.
Dirty fingerprints on the walls and doors.
Soiled dishes in the sink.
What's that smell...oh my, you stink!

Off we go to change that bum.
A feat you find so troublesome.
Only to realize the diaper pail is full.
As you fight me off and my hair you pull.

Mission accomplished but man, you were mean.
All that commotion over a diaper that's clean.
Now you're demanding it's time to 'eat! eat! eat!'
And that it's time for Elmo on Sesame Street.

The teenager rolls her eyes in disgust.
"Mother, why can't you shut that boy up?!"
The dog is barking because someone's at the door
The cat is chasing a ball on the floor.

My other son is whining about his skateboard
How it's broken, please fix it because he's "so boooooored!"
That there's nothing to do, his friends aren't around.
I tell him to play with his brother...he walks away without a sound.

I haven't showered yet, I may not make it there.
If the laundry isn't done today we'll all be wearing dirty underwear.
The toilets need scrubbing, the beds need to be made.
The garbage is over-flowing, the litter box needs changed.

Sippy cups in the toy box, toothpaste in the sink.
I don't know where to start, I can't even think!
I take a deep breath and that's when it hits
That smell so rotten, so gross...again?....Shit.



I wanna be the cat.

Unemployment


I never thought I'd want a job so bad. I never thought that unemployment would be as depressing as it is. My days all run together. I do the same thing every day without leaving the damn house. Now, granted if I could afford to stay home I would...but I can't. And I mean I really can't.

Some will say:

"Oh, just shift some things around, buckle down and cut out this or that, cut coupons religiously and sell your second car and you can easily stay home".
You know what...FUCK YOU.

It's not that easy. People depend on jobs for a reason...because they need them. Most people wouldn't work if they didn't HAVE to. I wouldn't have the second car or this or that if I hadn't had the job in the first place to be able to afford them.

My employer chose to change my lifestyle for me. I was laid-off, fired. Whatever you want to call it, it's the same to me. I didn't choose to not have my job anymore. I didn't work there for 3 years, working odd hours, nights, weekends and holidays so that I could get a fucking letter in the mail one day saying I didn't need to return to work.

I hated the job anyway. So, in that sense I am glad that it's over. But I still didn't choose to not work there. And with the economy the way it is right now...there isn't a job to be had out there.

I've applied to over 40 jobs and only gotten called for two interviews, both of which did not result in me being hired. Yes, I'm applying for jobs that I'm qualified for (but don't necessarily want). I'm not over qualified for anything, I only have a GED. And I won't apply if I'm under qualified. Why waste mine and their time?

It's frustrating because I'd really love to be able to stay home. It's just not feasible. And I'm not even enjoying my time off right now because I know it's short lived, temporary...something I should not get too accustomed to. And I'm ok with that. Really, I am.

I've just never had this much trouble landing a job before.

Roku

It's Friday night and you're bored out of your mind. You decide to rent movies and stay in for the night. You run out to your local video rental store, only to get there and find out that all the new releases are gone for the night (or weekend in some cases).

You've seen everything else.
You can't sit through When Harry Met Sally...again.
You can't watch Titanic...again.
Maybe you could watch The Breakfast Club again...nah, you can't.

Not tonight anyway.

So, you leave the store empty handed and begin your trek back home (uphill, barefoot, in the snow...).

You get home, curl up on the couch with your cat and the remote and settle in for a night of infomercials. Soon your dozing off to ShamWows, Billy Mays and The Magic Bullet.

Sadly, this is your life.

In your slumber you dream of something that allows you to instantly watch more than 12, 000 movies and/or TV episodes with no limits as to how many you can watch. And it's affordable!

Only it's not a dream.

It's Roku...



and you can win one from Mommy Goggles! (her button is in my sidebar)
Check out her blog for more details on this fantabulous giveaway and other great stuff!

And...you can go ahead and think this is a cheesy blog post because
when I win I won't be inviting you over to watch movies with me.

My Christmas Present

I got a new camera for Christmas but haven't really played with it much. It has all kinds of settings and options and buttons. It has an extra lens and it's own little bag. I've really only used the automatic settings but it is still fun to play around with it.

Here is my new toy:
A Nikon D40:


It is so fun! I really need to take a class and maybe watch those tutorial DVD's that came with it. That all sounds so boring though. But I'd probably like it even more if I really knew what the hell to do with it.

Here are some pics I took last week.


Hunter - He thinks he's being funny.


Snow angel? I think not...


Autumn taking Ethan down the hill.


Ethan rockin' his Yo Gabba Gabba gear.


Hunter believes he can fly.


That snow is not yellow. We stopped him from eating it anyway.


Autumn making a solo run down the hill.


My favorite pic that I took that day. You just can't fake that kind of happiness.




I used the super zoom lens to take these pics. These mountains are on the west side of the Salt Lake valley.


Un-zoomed.


And just a random photo I took. I think it looks kinda cool.
