1. My daughter said she saw a baby bear in our woods yesterday. Usually I would chalk this up to a small child’s big imagination, but not in these woods. Here in the Ding Dang Woods that sighting is pretty scary considering cubs don’t go anywhere without their baby mommas. This morning I woke to find a trash strewn yard with the trademark “much-bigger-than-a-raccoon-pawprint” throughout the debris. I’m thinking my little girl wasn’t daydreaming. 2. Last week I told you about my friend who is the proud Momma of 2 sets of twins (two 2 year olds & 2 two month olds- whew!). I pointed you in the direction of her eBay store and have now added a link to it on my left sidebar, “Ebay Nanny Fund“. 3. **IMPORTANT** If someone tells you they are PMSing and therefore grumpy, the worst thing you can keep asking them is “Are you still grumpy?”. They may want to kill you. 4. Success: pig that was being pig-sat was returned to its owner yesterday alive and well. 5. I don’t think my mother will ever get her blog on. I’m done pestering her about it. It may be for the best. If she stops blogging entirely then perhaps I can talk about her here with all of you…just kidding (maybe). 6. Tuesday night we attended my older daughter’s Back to School Night. I just wanted to let you all know that I was able to contain myself. I did not let any curse words slip out this time. 7. I desperately miss my regular phone conversations with my cousin. How much could it be to talk to someone in Japan for an hour a week? I mean really, it may not that bad- right? 8. I need midol or something stronger. 9. I still have “Moon River” swirling around in my head. 10. I am thinking of Michele and hoping everything is okay with her. 11. I am not losing weight and I am very depressed about this. I am really working my ass off. Every muscle is sore and no junk food is in the house. Any advice to jump start my weight loss? 12. Survivor is on tonight. (yipee!) Who do you think will be next to go? 13. The other day my husband and daughter went to the pet store to pick up some supplies we were lacking. They came back with one of those huge balls you can put your guinea pig in. Personally, I don’t see the appeal…

Leanne says: Thirteen things is all I ask for, and what do you get in return? Linkage! If you do it, leave a comment here and link me to your Thursday Thirteen. I will be sure to update my entry with links to yours, and then you can continue the chain if you like! I will link to everyone who participates and leaves a link to their 13 things. Trackbacks, pings, comment links accepted!
Wow! I didn’t know this was a weekly thing. Maybe I’ll join in next week. Thanks for linking me.
I have some things to say about all of this, but have to run. Will be back to comment more later.
LOL at your number 3. I have Raehan’s voice swirling in my head, too. Isn’t it so nice? I’m going to do this TT thing today, too. Of course, by the time I do it we’ll probably be closer to Friday, but that’s ok, right?
So, uh, MommaK, Are you still grumpy? hehe That one was too funny!! Thanks for the giggle this morning!
I’ll have to do this next week. I have already posted today. Perhaps we could get to hear you sing something on audioblog? Please and thank you.
Happy Thursday.. I don’t know who will get voted off Survivor, but I’m hoping it’s someone who deserves it this time.
Lillian and the guinea pig look like they are carrying on a conversation! How cute!
I want to play- but I just put up my 100 things about me list and it took me to long to do it- How do I link? or can you play without the linking thing?- I’m not good at linking
-have a good one !
I don’t get PMS.
Thank goodness. I’m very glad the pig got sent home safely!
I’ll link yours too! Thanks MommaK!

I LOVE those hamster balls! (?) The ball you put the hamster in, I mean. Oh, it’s a guinea pig; I suppose they have bigger balls? Uh…I mean…I better shut up.
#1. Holy Crap. I don’t even know what I’d do if there were bears in my yard. Besides photograph them, that is. :P
#11. Body For Life meal replacement shakes. The red containers.
#13. Our pig is too dang lazy for those! We got the biggest one, and she just sat there. WEEK WEEK WEEK! I gave it away at our garage sale.
Here’s my thirteen!
Thursday Thirteen #7
13 Super Sweet Morsels about Leanne
1. I’ve been working on a custom blog illustration for the last 2 days solid. I even got up at 4 am this morning because the status of it bothered me so much. I completely repainted my project and sp…
Oh My! Bears in your woods. we have deer here, but they won’t eat my kids!
I have one set of twins. If I had two sets I am not sure what I would do. The twins are why I had my tubes tied!
I, too, am worried about Michele.
Is Lillian a horse or a dog? She’s huge! Adorable picture, though.
In middle school, I had a hamster, and the cats would chase him around the house when we put him in those hamster balls.

Here’s mine.
Make that
http://www.uzismusings.blogspot.com
It’s a good thing.
My list is up at http://www.mylifeinretrospect.blog.com
I’m going to add you to my linkages as well!
If you Mom drops out, I’ll only have 102 b**gs to read. What will I do with my spare time? Rats. Give her one more push.
Okay, I’m back.
Yikes about the momma bear. Too bad they are so potentially dangerous. They are beautiful to watch.
PMS. Now that’s the bear we have to worry about in this house.
Moon River. I’m with Angie on that one. You sing.
And you show us the proper ending. I’m still cringing at the way I ended. It occurred to me halfway through that I don’t really know the song all the way through.
Wieght Loss: Give it time. Your muscles are holding in water. When they settle down it will start to come off. Don’t give up. Just measure by the way you feel. (And just so you know, I’m not really losing either. But will keep trying.)
Guinea Pig Ball. I think if I was that pig next to your big, sweet dog, I’d be happy I was in that ball.
I feel like I have been PMS’ing for about a month now!
Keep it up…it will come off.
Now you’ve got me humming ‘Moon River’.
*runs in bearing multiple a bottles of Fat Bastard in each arm*
MommaK! It’s a Thursday party! I did my Thursday Thirteen.
*clink*
You can *hiccup* add me!
And I’ll add your link to my TT post since I found out about this here.
Happy Thursday! Who will it be tonight? Shh… don’t tell me. I’ve decided to read your blog on Thursdays now… that seems safe
Thanks for the comment, and I’ve addressed you in my lastest post today!
Whoo hooo Hey, if you find any Midol send some to me. My husband would be most grateful.
I didn’t know about Thursday THirteens. Maybe I can get it together for next week. In response to yours:
7. when my daughter was in Japan I got a calling plan for 10 cents a minute. We racked up the phone time.
10. Me too.
11. The Abs diet worked for me.
Hi…I’m here from Leanne’s Thirteen and just giving you a wave hello. Soooo… you are deviant’s sister. I’ve followed links to her site a few times and the name Deviant Art has stuck in my brain.
Oh…now I’m embarrassed. Your not deviant’s sister. oooops, my bad. Please forgive me. I read all the 13’s entries first and then came back to reply and of course I screwed up. Sorry. I’m blaming it on a senior moment.
I posted mine earlier this afternoon. Just now getting a chance to let you know though.
I feel bad everyday that I haven’t posted but right now things are really crazy with Singers - auditions, concern for the possible demise of the group etc - not to mention work, travel, family. I’ll get back - promise. I became so frustrated trying to load pics that I just haven’t wanted to try again! No punishment allowed!
Remember MUSCLE weighs more then fat!!!!
It takes time don’t give up.
PS It is too early in the show for me to figure out who they will kick off. But let’s make a guess…Amy
I’m here by way of Leanne. Love your list. I agree with you on the PMS thing! As far as phone conversations with your cousin, have you tried http://www.skype.com? If your cousin has a computer you can both download the program for free and talk for free! I’ve been talking to my husband and daughter in Hong Kong regularly for a month and we’ve had no problems. And finally, I LOVE Survivor but I’m not familiar enough with the new crew to even guess who’s next to go. Probably one of the sickly boys on Bobby John’s team - just a guess!
I have Midol. All for you, baby.
With wine to wash it down, and some chocolate for a chaser.
*hug*
Now that I’ve buttered you up, a request~~I will miss the last half of survivor tonight…will you tell me later who got voted off? Or are you going to recap tomorrow anyway?
Tomorrow should be fun with us both PMSing…let’s get some ice cream with LOTS OF CHOCOLATE!! I’m Survivoring if I can stay awake!!
I love this thirteen thing! Ok not enough to make time to do it but still….it’s fun to read. I wish I didn’t have a job so I could do it too. Oh well….miss ya! I’m month-long PMSing by the way…what does it all mean???
Be good!
I want to play in the thirteen thing. But I need it spelled out for because I have no brain cells right now. Thanks for all of the updates!
Thanks for the link to Raehan’s singing-Moon River is my all-time favorite song!
i forgot about this again and blogger was down earlier today and i couldn’t get on it, grrrrr.
i thought that moon river was wonderful, i was surprised cuz i thought she was going to sing a lullabye, i’m kind of glad now that i have no idea how to do an audio and i hope michelle is ok too, her post made me think it was bad news, usually good news you don’t have to worry about whether to share with your friends or not. i’m starting my diet on saturday, i need to take off this weight i put on over the summer, i’m going to try a low carb one, what are you doing?
I’ll pass on the memes, but enjoy reading yours. About #11… avoid the Mexican cuisine! ;-)
Download Skype and if you have time we can try to work it out this weekend! Then, AT LAST, we can chat.
Glad you mentioned your family- I realized you were all connected when I read Hoss’s entry about you. It’s so cool that you all have blogs!
And I’m so with you about the weight roadblock. I worked out for FOUR MONTHS STRAIGHT recently, 4 days a week, weights and cardio, and did not lose a single pound. I tried to console myself by thinking that perhaps I’d gained muscle, but… It sucked. I tried to diet- I did eat healthy- but I get voraciously hungry immediately after workouts and I don’t know what to do about that. If I don’t work out, I lose weight!! Aaaaauuuggghhh!!!
