Facebook

I have to say that facebook has become like a new child to me, and definately has received more attention then my blog lately! I think the main reason is the instant gratification...you all with your own facebook page know what I'm talking about. It might take 3 days to get 15 people to read my blog (or find it), and with Facebook...all I have to do is mention that I'm going to Florida and by the end of an hour 30 people have commented. Most of them want to come with me, but I say the more the merrier!

By far the biggest reason I love Facebook is I can find old friends from school and our past military life! I can't begin how many times I've glowed from the inside to find some of my long lost beautiful friends! And now they will always be around...or atleast on my computer screen!

I even got together last week with some of my gal pals from high school...never would have happenend if we weren't on facebook. None of us could take charge and make a decision, but we still managed to get-together! Now we will be doing monthly get-togethers. Take a look at us chicks....

Alright, I'm just rambling! In closing, get on facebook and get in touch with some old pals or if you are on facebook already, keep in touch!

Glamour Girls

Kara tagged me to do this and I think it is very funny to see what photo turned up! This was a photo I used to put in a newsletter for lia sophia. However, I think this is a perfect representation of Me, Kara, & Andrea! Why I didn't recognize this before, I don't know! Because we are by far the most glamorous gals around! Now if I can just get us on TV!


Thankfully Kara didn't tag Andrea (probably because she's in TX, but I'll tag her anyway), and I can tag 2 of my fellow WP grads Tracie & Allison....Here's the rules girls:

1. go to your documents
2. go to your 6th file.
3. go to your 6th picture.
4. blog about it.
5. tag 6 friends to do the same.


Thanks for playing along! Click on Kara's blog link to check out her give away...it's on my blog list!

Panda Bears

I can't begin to explain the 6 degrees of separation that led me to this video...you all know how my mind works! It is one that makes you laugh just thinking about it! All of you mothers will appreciate this! Enjoy!

Laundry Woes!

As if it isn't already a long and torturous day when you spend it doing the laundry for yourself and 5 other, mostly ungrateful, family members...it's compounded when the washer timer is broken! Courtney has actually taken a liking to wearing unmatched socks, this actually frees her to be grumpy and complain about everything else in her life...did I mention she's 14? Feel my pain! My dear hubby's solution: "Do you want to just go buy a new one(washer, not 14 year old)?" Uh, no! So, me being Mrs. Fix It searched the web to determine that it (hopefully) is the timer and I spent the $65 for a new one. The only catch...I ordered it forever ago! Okay, last week...but no timer yet! The problem started on New Years Eve. After I went to put a load of laundry into the dryer @ 12:30am on New Years Day, I realized the water was still in the washer and just moved it to spin and went to bed! I awoke @ 3:38am (I remember these things) and heard the washer still spinning! Needless to say I have had problems ever since trying to be the timer for my washer, so I'm sure I will have killed the motor by the time I get the new timer & will have to get a new washer! I also, had the brilliant idea this morning to just pop the Downy ball after the wash water drained & skip the first spin...why does it need to spin when it's just gonna fill up again? They must be in cahoots with the electric company! I am a genius for figuring this out first...too bad you can't patent smartness! Oh my goodness...I just saw that "just pop the Downy ball" was originally typed as "just poop the Downy ball"...too funny! LOL! Aren't you glad you took time out of your life to read this blog today? I hope I'm not the only one who laughs at my antics! Have a great day...I'm off to my own little world!

Bridge Street?

To all my adoring fans, please forgive my neglecting my blog...after all I am now a famous actor! Those of you who missed my acting debut on Dec. 13-14, well you just missed it! I am now on a mission to be a local talk show host! Yep, I may not have a chance, but God gave me my many talents...why waste them when I can share them with thousands! I figured since I can't sing like Anita Renfroe I won't be hearing from Women of Faith anytime soon, so I had to rethink things a bit! Bridge Street (our local Syracuse talk show) would so benefit from my random and sometimes annoying (I can see the one plank in my eye) silliness! I'd be willing to just guest host or do a segment, just so they can see how much everyone would enjoy me! Does that sound vain? Anyway, the only problem is I don't think I can just email them or call them up and tell them they are missing out on something big. They would probably think I'm some egotistical freakazoid or even worse...completely unqualified, untalented and not what they are looking for!

That's where you my dear friends and strangers come in. I need massive amounts of emails sent so you can campaign for me! We'll call it "Hire Loren to build The Bridge" & you'll just need to point some things out to them, like:
1. You think I am the best gal for the co-host slot, everyone needs a third wheel.
2. Let them know how much fun & lovable I am, and if you don't know me...trust me...I am!
3. It would get me out of your hair!
4. It would help me stop having all these delusional thoughts, but really, who else but God could have planted the seeds?
5. I know a lot about nothing!
6. I would double their ratings! Hello! Nobody I know watches anything but Dora & Diego, and I would be way better then some cartoon character!

So your mission, it is not an option, is to let everyone know about my campaign & send those emails...I guess I should have looked it up....hold on I'll find it...Oh my Gosh!...I see they are doing an extreme makeover of the set...how about adding a new face? That seems to be the best option to me! They have a blog too! Here is the email...and they are asking that we submit our ideas about what we would like to see on the show. How about ME! They are asking for our ideas after all! Oh yeah, the email address is bridgestreet@9wsyr.com

If God is for me, who can be against me! Go Team!

"F" Words

Okay, Kara's making me do another one of those list things...I'm supposed to share 10 things in my life that starts with the letter "F"...There's a sign above my kitchen that says:

1-3. Faith, Family & Friends...life would be so sad without them!
4. Folgers coffee...what a lovely way to start my day!
5. Frosty the Snowman...Haaaappy Birthday!
6. Fifteen year old Feline...Munchkin!
7. Foolishness...life is short, don't take yourself too seriously!
8. Freedom...thank a soldier!
9. Forks...we use them to eat with!
10. Food...why we use those forks!

Sorry Kara, but I have no one to pass this on to...although if I get to Family Rezsnyak before Andrea...they can do the letter "G"! Good luck Family Rezsnyak!

Cheap Entertainment!

Please don't read this blog if you have tendencies to turn people in to Child Services...I will deny everything! With that being said...I took the 9V battery out of my smoke detector this morning, because when I opened the pellet stove door black smoke came pouring out (don't ask!)! No need to wake the hubby! Brayden, Amanda, & I were hanging in the basement family room goofing around, and Brayden asks Amanda to put the battery on her tongue! He said it hurt his tongue...how funny for a child to figure this out without being encouraged by older children! What would possess someone to put a battery in their mouth? Then along comes Riley, but she was too smart to be tricked & Amanda was afraid of getting hurt! Do braces multiply the effect? So, I tried it since it's been awhile, it's still not very pleasant! I was laughing so hard as we all took turns zapping our tongues with a 9V battery! Brayden is a genius! And they're only $1 at the dollar general! Stock up, it's great idea for family game night! Maybe you can see who can hold it on the longest or something cool like that! Just a suggestion, no need to thank me!
