oh what a lovely view

So in the process of building out our in-laws basement, they threw all the trash out the windows.






but now they have cleaned up the trash and the kids can see right into our room when they play in the backyard. hmm I think its time for some curtains. What do you think?

Music Survey

I received a phone call a few weeks ago from someone in Colorado. I don't answer the phone unless I recognize the number. But he left a message saying there was going to be a survey in the area and was wondering if I was interested. I had done a survey for this company before so I was all for it! He asked me a few questions and then said I qualified for this survey.

What they do is they play 5-10 seconds of 500 songs. You fill in little bubbles and rate them.



Last time I did this I sat next to this annoying girl who sang along with every single 5-10 second song. Ya, that got old REAL fast. You know its going to end in 5 seconds but no! She had to sing along with the 4 words that were played.

This time it was much better but the people were very non social. The girl next to me read her book during a break and the other girl was texting on her phone. It turns out that we did the survey for the local radio station X96. And Todd Nukem came by after with his funny mohawk. There's a reason some people are on radio and not television.

In the end I made my 60 bucks in 3 hours. Oh ya!

Another edition of gross things kids do

We were at Kmart looking for a birthday present for one of Shali's friends when I heard a big sneeze. Then I heard Savanna say "Mommy! Mommy! Booger nose!" I pulled out a wipey and handed it to her. She held on to that thing the whole time we were at the store. Sneezing here and there.

While we were in line to check out Savanna was getting in Kaila's face, as usual. Kaila tried to grab her wipey but what did Savanna do??? She gave Kaila the snot covered wipey to play with. I had to get it away from Kaila which made her cry.

Another note, while I was writing this I heard Savanna sneeze so I looked over at her. She licked her boogers.
