Ha Ha

Since I didn’t post yesterday for Thanksgiving, here is a little funny for it.

Just think – If the Indians have given the Pilgrims a donkey instead of a turkey, we would all be having a little piece of ass for Thanksgiving.

I had an amazing Thanksgiving with my family and family friends. We had pasta, turkey, yams, potatoes, salad, stuffed mushroom caps, bread, American and Italian stuffing, and who else knows. After that we had a good 2 hour break where to watched football, looked through the ads, and then got ready for dessert. Dessert … my favorite meal!!!! Oh and we had plenty.  We had pumpkin pie, pecan cheesecake, turtle pie, cookie dough ice cream pie, cookies, Italian cookies, normal ice cream. I think I gained 10 pounds just from looking at it.

So what is Black Friday … Don’t we all wonder? I guess it’s just this thing stores made up to make money. You know we all eat Turkey, so we go to bed early, so they figure “oh let’s open at 4am and only have 10 TVS, and have 200 people in the store, maybe they will buy something else”. haha it’s like Valentine’s day, all about $$$.

Anyways this is what black friday really is … Black Friday is not an official holiday, but many employees have the day off, which increases the number of potential shoppers. Retailers often decorate for the Christmas season  weeks beforehand. Many retailers open very early (typically 5 am or even earlier) and offer doorbuster deals and loss leaders to draw people to their stores. Although Black Friday, as the first shopping day after Thanksgiving, has served as the unofficial beginning of the Christmas season at least since the start of the modern Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in 1924, the term “Black Friday” has been traced back only to the 1960s.

Personally, I like just going out for the experience of the day. I normally don’t buy too much, I like just to get up early and experience the drama. It’s quite a rush! Well today I just went to get a few things. An awesome 4-in-1 stick vac, a 6.5 pre-lit x-mas tree, and a few towels, and I ended up with 15 movies (they were all 2 bucks each). haha, I think hubby and I will be having A LOT of cuddle nights now.

Well I hope everyone had a safe and fun day, but I need to get back to cleaning. We have some people coming over tomorrow for the holiday parade tomorrow. See you later!

Trust

I sometimes say things before I truly think about them, and I know it gets me into trouble. Kind of like today. I messaged my hubby while he was at work and asked him how his day was. Then I jokinly asked how his talk with one of this friends was (it’s not a person I care for because in the past she has been nothing but a bitch to me, and almost broke up our relationship more than one). I knew she was on-line as she is still on my buddy list. He got all pissed off and yelled at me for spying on him when I clearly wasn’t. I did NOTHING wrong here. Yes I did ask a question I probably shouldn’t have, but I wasn’t spying on him by any means. I didn’t really care they were talking, more or less was just joking with the questions to him. He got all pissed and told me to F* Off and hung up the phone on me (oh that is one of the worst things ever to do). I am just upset right now, but I know it will soon pass and we will go back to our happy go luck couple ways. But for now it kills me that he doesn’t trust me, and honestly thinks I was spying on him. BOOO the walls up again

release-ful writing

Lately my mind has been so jumbled up it isn’t even funny. There are a million different things on it, and only so much time for me to sort through them all. I am worried, I am happy, I am nervous, I am over-reacting, I am just being me.

I worry a lot, and most the time it is stupid stuff, but lately my worrying seems to be more real. It’s real because it’s honestly something that affects me everyday. I don’t work (well I do, but I don’t get paid for everything I do). I want a job, maybe even need one. I think not having one is making my mind wonder even more. I want to go back to school, but as of today, this isn’t my biggest worry. I know in time it will happen, and when it does, it will be magical. I want to be a good friend, a good wife, a good person, and I think everyday I am working towards this goal.

I miss some of my old friends, and others, well I am glad they are no longer in my life. (this will be a whole next entry on a different day). I was flipping through an old chicken noodle soup book before I packed them away and maybe give them away and came across a page I highlighted. I read the poem on that page, and I cried. I want to share that poem with you.

” I am a poet writing of my pain.
I am a person living a life of shame.
I am your daughter hiding my depression.
I am your sister making a good impression.
I am your friend acting like I am fine.
I am a wisher wishing this life weren’t mine.
I am a girl who thinks of suicide.
I am a teenager pushing my tears aside.
I am a student who doesnt have a clue.
I am the girl sitting next to you.
I am the one asking you to care.
I am your best friend hoping you’ll be there. ”

This poem honestly describes myself in detail (not so much today, but in my past). I can’t say that i am truly proud of myself for the things I have done in my past, but they have made me who I am today. I was always the girl who everyone told their problems too, but I never talked to anyone about mine. I always hide them inside, and then wrote about them. I was always the person who was starving for attention, no matter if it was positive or negative. I had many problems (again, another day I will go into more details in a full entry), but I lived through them, and am here today to tell my crazy stories.

Well all in all today has been a pleasant day, and I am happy I am able to share it with you. I hope everyone had a good weekend and safe Halloween. Ciao!

Sunday Dinner!

Sunday dinner … nope sorry this does not mean eating pizza and drinking beers to watch the game (well unless your counting that as a snack.) Sunday sinner in my household means being at Grandma’s house at 2pm for a 3pm dinner and family time. Yes we do eat a real dinner (pasta, meat, salad, fruit, cake) at 3pm. A normal breakfast for me is around 10am and then I eat a snack around 7pm. Sunder dinner is an Italian tradition about being together with family.  Well then family time it is. It is normally my grandparents, their 4 children, and their children’s spouses, and then the grandchildren. That right there is a simple 16 people, and that isn’t counting if someone brings a friend, or just feel like inviting some old family friends over for dinner. So anytime you want to be surrounded by a loud loving Italian family with homemade food, don’t hesitate to give me a call. Don’t get me wrong, I love it, but sometimes it can be too too much.
