Look at me, I'm a busy bee!

I was just looking at the last time I posted and thought, "Dang! It's been a long time!" Time flies when you're running around like a lunatic trying to get everything done without going totally crazy. I meant fun. Right?

Well, to catch everyone up on what's been going on, here we go. Bonnie had her puppies, finally. She was supposed to have them on April 3. That was what all the books and other resources said. They said she could go as late as April 5, but if she hasn't had them by then, start worrying. April 5th rolls around and still no pups. Not even some signs of labor! I start to worry. I call the vet. He tells me to calm down. Seriously! April 6th goes by with no pups. Finally, on April 7th, Bonnie had 7 puppies! They are so adorable! And we have 3 to sell, so try to resist this:







That's right! Let the cuteness go right down to the bone! Are you done oohing and ahhing yet? No? Ok, I'll give you a few minutes.

They are like real live Pound Puppies. You remember them right? Great toys of the 80's and early 90's! Gotta love them!

Also, in addition to the puppy drama, I was so busy getting jewelry ready for my jewelry party at my Mom's house. I was like a slave, but got some really nice pieces done. You can see them here. By the way, let me know if you want to have a party! ;)

I have also been busy giving the MAP test to my kids and praying that they have a clue when it comes to the test.

And last, but not least, I have had an interesting run-in with a Walmart employee that is totally blogworthy. On Thursday, I did my weekend grocery shopping. I know it wasn't the weekend yet, but I had to get it done because I was going out of town and Clinton could starve if his food wasn't grillable or microwavable. Plus, we needed toilet paper. So there I was, checking out and I get the TMI/Debbie Downer employee.

I am not a rude customer. I usually have enough groceries to get a family of 4 from Pennsylvania to California on the Oregon Trail every time I visit old Wally World. So since it takes roughly 37 hours to check me out, I always make polite conversation. It's usually painless for both parties. However, this time I got the jaded against men employee. During my checkout I came to know the following about the lady most of which I would classify as TMI:

• "There's no good men out there anymore. Either they're gay or all they want to do is use you. And some are married."
• One of the "user" men at her work asked her out even though he's married. And his wife told her that if she wants him, she can have him.
• She thinks life should go back to the way it was when our grandparents were around. Not just a slower pace, but everything. No cell phones, no Internet, beating your kids in public, etc...
• Even though I am happily married, my husband will probably cheat on me if he uses the Internet. That's why 80% of couples break up these days because husbands are reconnecting with old flames and cheating on their wives.
• Her husband hooked up with an 20 year old online and left her and her son with nothing (this one is sad, but we just aren't that kind of friends where she should feel comfortable sharing this...because I wasn't comfortable for sure).

Wow. That's all I have to say. Just wow.
