Oh what fun it is to be in the household-Fly on the Wall

Welcome! It's another addition of FLY ON THE WALL!!!  *audience applause*

I always wanted an audience!! You guys are too kind to stop by! Oh stop it, you're embarrassing me!!

Yea, I like the attention! So, Karen setup FLY ON THE WALL! 14 of us bloggers write tidbits about what it would be like if they was a FLY ON THE WALL in our daily lives.



The other day I let our puppy go outside to use the potty and play a little bit. I left her out there about 30 minutes. To make sure she went. I hear scratching on my door and I go to open it. I hesitate. She is soaked from head to toe! She decided to dip in the pool and go for a swim!! I get a towel, let her in, and start to attempt to dry her off. Got some of her dry. She then decides to jump on my couch and rub her wet back all over it.

She thinks she is part cat. She lays on my windowsill with our cats and sunbathes. She will lay on the back of our couch. She never lasts long. She is too big.

I call her CATDOG! (like the cartoon.) She will lay there all day and just sunbathe.


I am getting my kids back on a school schedule. They go back the 18th. I will have 2 in school now. It will be so weird to just have my son with me at home alone. I won't have to hear about any fighting, but I know he will get bored and miss his sisters. He is ready for school, but can't start until next year. He is the only one who can start at 5 and not at 6. Its weird how they set that up. Have to be 5 by a certain time. I remember we could go as soon as we hit the age of 5. That was the only requirement.

We are doing a big move in January. I am excited! My husband will be attending college! So happy for him! The kids are excited about this move! Its a warm place with a beach and no snow. They hate the snow! First time seeing real snow in their lives and they hate it after 1 time!!

Yea, we are excited! I am a little more excited about the fact that this
place is in Florida! I am all out POTTERHEAD!! I am not ashamed to admit it!! My husband is excited about DisneyWorld! I think just as excited as the kids.









Now that I have shared a little tidbit of our lives, please, go check out the other awesome bloggers!!

Use your words

It's that time again. A few of us bloggers were brought together by Karen to write a post using 4-6 words given to us by other bloggers. I made it sound more complicated than what it is, but I wanted to sound like I know how to write.

I filled out an application for a job that Karen had posted. It asked about decibel level in music or something. I have no rhythm whatsoever. The decibel level I have, does not yet have a name. Rhythm, well, let's just say there is no name for my rhythm either. I am above my level. I am like on the peace level. Yea, I am a mellow don't know what the hell I am doing level.

I am writing a book. I am wanting to write more books, but this one book is taking forever to write. I have been writing steadily for about 3 months now and I am only on chapter 2. I am backtracking and rewriting, and adding, and changing, and adding, and rewriting, and adding. Its such a hassle!!! It is a huge challenge getting this stuff done. I hope it gets easier and it becomes a best seller. Or a somewhat good seller.

In high school, I used to volunteer for a company called ICAAN. We helped train service dogs. It was a wonderful experience and I loved it. I want to volunteer again, but its hard with 3 kids, school, writing a book, and me needing free time. I bring this up because my kids are always seeing dogs with service vests on in stores and places we go and want to run up and pet them. I am trying to explain to them why they can't do that. Any of your kids ever do this before? My kids get upset because they love pets, but I always tell them to ask before petting any pet, especially a service dog. Maybe I can get them into a similar program.




These are my words. I messed up the image, but don't judge. I tried very hard for 45 minutes to get this right and it still looks like crap. That' ok. Its the creative thought that counts :)


Go see what other words the bloggers had and how they used them:

*~*~My life story*~*~

I am apart of the SECRET SUBJECT SWAP. I know its been forever!! We have had a lot of changes around our household! I promise to be more bloggie! Wait, is bloggie a word? Oh well if it isn't. I just made up a new word. (Patent pending!)

Okay so my subject was submitted by:
Climaxed (Love the name by the way. I know it means something else, but hehe)

My subject is:

Your life story is going to be turned into a movie. You're given the choice of a true-to-life, potentially gritty documentary full of interviews from people who know all your secrets but also the real you or a highly glamorized, full-of-liberties Hollywood drama. Which do you choose? If a documentary, what would you hope your friends and family talk about? What happened in your life that would HAVE to be included? If a Hollywood film, who would play you? What sorts of liberties would you want the film to take with your story?


I will have to choose the TRUE-TO-LIFE documentary. I don't want some snobby, glamorized ditz playing me. I don't embarrass easily so the interviews won't really bother me. Unless someone picks their nose and eats it. GROSS!! 




I hope my family talks about how I changed their life forever. How I made it the best ever. That I am truly a remarkable person with no faults and flaws. 
My friends, however, I want them to say how they idolized me. They looked up to me like I was a goddess of brains and humor and beauty. How I made their lives full of humor and full of love. They just couldn't get enough of me. I am the best friend they have ever. 

Hey, I can dream right? I just want them to be truthful. About our friendships, and the love. The stories we shared and the laughter we had. 

What happened in my life that MUST be included is, well there are several things. My marriage, my kids, career. Oh and my book. I am only on chapter 2, but it is coming along. I am trying to put every detail into without going overboard. I am learning how to do that now.
