I took this Karma Test and this was the result - hmmmm, me Optimistic? I can sure try it on for size...









Lisa, Your Karmic Alignment is: Optimistic!

Optimistic

Score: 13 In general, you tend to create poitive actions. You have a caring personality which gives you positive Karma. Every now and then you slip up and harvest negative Karma. But, all in all, you follow lines similar to the Monks on their way to enlightenment.

So, it is my fault.
She has a job, she has a debit card on her checking account - IIIIIII am the genious who got her setup and this is the result:


Prom Dress purcahsed with NO help!
I remember it was a big deal to go prom dress shopping, first with your friends and then you dragged mom there to approve of the selection.

Nope

Went to JC Penny by herself and bought what she wanted.

sigh, I am sad. I don't even have the energy to photograph that stupid balloon that looks the same as last year.

She just told me, "Hey I will send you a picture of my dress. Show it to Dad later will ya?" And then she went off to sleep over at Brittany's.

sigh

Going to the Zoo --- We like to howl at the wolf!

Balloon Watch - First Day of Spring

Friday, March 20, 2009

Last Friday you were subjected to a BAD photo

When I ACTUALLY use a camera this is what I can get from the fifth floor walkway at Galtier -



a smiley face balloon hanging there, upside down...Does it look sad to you? It sort of bothers me that it just hangs there, but who would go get it?

And now for baking pictures - Boo Boo La La is loving to bake, and how can you resist a face like this??


Or this?

Happy Weekend my raspberry jelly rolls!

FedEx still made a profit and...

Thursday, March 19, 2009

The headline reads "FedEx 3Q earnings tumble on weak global economy" and yet they STILL made a profit of over thirty cents per share.

Maybe I am a dumb blonde.

Can someone explain to me why they have to layoff MORE workers to satisfy the shareholders? Why would they want to do that?
Shouldn't they try to KEEP people on board, find other ways to reduce costs - like Executive PAYCUTS, etc.

Then perhaps!!! Just Perhaps!!! People would be BUYING stuff that SHIPS to their home via FedEx.

Ya think?

Or maybe I am a feeble minded woman.

Apparently I am a bad, bad, terrible mommy

Here I am worrying about getting her a Barbie and others are protesting Tween Dora!!! They are worried she is too sexy...


sigh.


To Barbie or Not to Barbie



This is the Boo Boo La La - I know, I know - you HAVE seen her before.
Isn't she just the cutest??
The thing is that she is now three years old. Her birthday and Christmas are superclose together and I feel that sometimes she should get a cool Easter gift or Fourth of July or something because of that.
So, this year I thought BARBIE???
How cool would that be? Could you imagine it? and I saw THIS Barbie, except Toys R Us recommends it for 16 and older? Because it is a Barbie PINK Collection 1967 Twist and Shout model - and it is $40 so...maybe a cheaper first Barbie, like the Zoo Doctor or Sea World Trainer?

But, here is the question. To Barbie or Not?

I never got a Barbie, my mom did not let me have one.

I had the Sunshine Family.

Uh, yeah. They WERE fun and Groovy and all but...

Do I let Boo Boo have a Barbie?

Is it wrong or ICONIC?

St. Paul has some of the oddest stuff goin' on!

This blog was GOING to be about this balloon in the rafters of Galtier Plaza - a shiny smiley face ballon that flaps in the rafter breezes above the balcony to my office...Stay tuned, it has been there for a month and I am going to take a picture of it every Friday until it disappears. Hopefully the next photo will be better.

The one above was taken on my lame phone camera.

Then on the way home I saw THIS>>>>>>
out of the corner of my eye...

WTF
GOATS????





So this is strange - a Toyota Corolla filled wtih GOATS??? I needed to get a closer look...and thankfully it was rush hour and I saw we would be stopping ahead and and and YES...I got room to move over and get behind them and snapped...

Goats...in a car driving north on 35E.

seriously. wtf?

Near the Ides of March

It is still freezing cold here in MN - Six Below when I left the house this morning.

I had been thinking about the weather because of the blizzard and weird comments people have made to me in the elevator about it being "spring" and "yeah" they were happy...uh, okay.

Then my good friend Nettie asked me what it was like here, I told her and she said

"Thats awful! I hate that! I remember in April it snowed on my bday!! Youck!(sic)"
And Nettie lives in Norway...
It made me think of this song and I could not get it out of my head, or find the Prince version, so here you go - now it is stuck in your head.
Love ya!

I Googled "Lisa is" and got this wonderful film.

Now, I generally think that Andy Rooney is a dried-up crabapple with very little to say. But I got an email the other day that had something GOOD to say that is attributed to Andy Rooney.

It said(and included a picture of Andy Rooney, but I will spare you that for a pic of a HOT mama over the age of 40*):


60 Minutes Correspondent Andy Rooney (CBS)


As I grow in age, I value women over 40 most of all. Here are just a few reasons why:


A woman over 40 will never wake you in the middle of the night and ask, 'What are you thinking?' She doesn't care what you think.


If a woman over 40 doesn't want to watch the game, she doesn't sit around whining about it. She does something she wants to do, and it's usually more interesting.


Women over 40 are dignified. They seldom have a screaming match with you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant. Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you if they think they can get away with it.


Older women are generous with praise, often undeserved. They know what it's like to be unappreciated.


Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins to a woman over 40.


Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman over 40 is far sexier than her younger counterpart.


Older women are forthright and honest. They'll tell you right off if you are a jerk, if you are acting like one. You don't ever have to wonder where you stand with her.


Yes, we praise women over 40 for a multitude of reasons. Unfortunately, it's not reciprocal. For every stunning, smart, well-coiffed, hot woman over 40, there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow pants making a fool of himself with some 22-year old waitress.


Ladies, I apologize.


For all those men who say, 'Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?', here's an update for you. Nowadays 80% of women are against marriage.


Why?


Because women realize it's not worth buying an entire pig just to get a little sausage!
* Okay, Sandra Bullock is not the BEST actress, but she is 45 and smokin' hot. Plus for some reason I watched "Practical Magic" this weekend.
