Friday Fragments are bits and pieces of your week that are usually brief; too short for a stand-alone post, but too good to discard. Collect humorous observations, "Heard" items, and other small gems and put them together in a Friday Fragments post.

***** Driving Miss Ash to school in the 45 mph zone doing 50 I get passed by 3 cars, all of which are High school students. The last one to pass me actually caused the oncoming traffic to stop so that he did not cause a head-on collision. My speeding is not the point here LOL. (AND I was passed by 3 cars) And we will ignore the inner rage i felt compelled to follow the 16 year old to school and beat up in front of his friends, this topped off by my next stop being the dreaded "drop-off loop" THIS my friends.... started by morning.

***** As my daughter was cleaning out her backpack this week, I noted her pencil bag contained about 15 green markers. yes...ONLY green. Her favorite color. She borrowed them apparently. Yeah. After learning she "borrowed" them from the teacher... we have a FUN week ahead and Spring break return of grounding and lessons... JOY. AND 15 GREEN MARKERS? Am I the only one who is just questioning this choice besides the joy of parenting a child on the lessons of taking things? OY VEY!

***** The economy sucks. Everyone's losing their homes, jobs etc etc. The boyfriend suggests we should start buying properties and selling them. Ummmm....


***** NEIGHBOR UPDATE We now have the barking dog... a new chihuahua and the new chihuahua's SISTER! (Oh and the vinegar in candles worked, hehehehe, my floating votives have been floating for a week now)

***** Yeah, I'm too nice. Let me start off saying this first but yeah... I have a cell phone plan and nicely enough since they have years of contracts, my EX, my daughter's Dad has one on my plan still, Since my bill jumped 200 bucks, I obviousally inquired WHY, and was notified of the international calls to NIGERIA from his number. Upon inquiring... He "met" a girl on "Myspace" whom he called. BUT said was local. I guess the 14-17 digit number didn't tip him off. His "barely speaking English, 12 minute, 220 dollar conversation he paid me for" which gave me the HUGE chance for ... I got to say... "I hope you enjoyed", really, and I mean REALLY made my day. Any other questions as to why I am divorced from this man?

My Posing Kid!

Ashlee cannot take a picture without posing. Future model? Or goofball? You decide. I was just cleaning and organizing pictures on my computer, from vacations, random pictures etc, and noted her active shots and thought I'd share. LOL.

An Award!

Wow! I got my first award! Thank you to Midtown Girl! If you haven't checked her out... DO SO! It's like SITC LIVE! She is SO my daily dose of funny! Although I often feel badly for her awful dates... I can't help but laugh, but hey she's got sass to back her up when the idiots come a knockin! Just go see her!

Here's my award! Isn't it Pretty?

The Rules are... To list 7 things that I Love/Make me Happy! So Here Goes....

1. My Daughter. Obviously. Although I'd love to strangle her attitude filled, smart mouthed, annoying little butt more often than not, she is my world.

2. Sunshine. I just love sunshine. Sitting outside, or inside, sunshine is the best. How can you not smile when the sun lights up everything in it's path?

3. Really good friends. You know the type. When your having a bad day, and you get a phone call or email with one of those even annoying forwards that just tells you your special, and your like "I SO needed that today!". OR when you answer your phone and the other person says.."OK, What's wrong?", they just KNOW. That's the kind I'm talking about.

4. BOOKS! I could read ALL day. I love nothing more than a book.

5. Naps! For one because I don't take as many as I'd love to. AND it is my favorite time to take them. On a bed...With the windows open, breeze coming in, sun shining... HEAVEN.

6. Babies. No, I don't want anymore. But, I enjoy them. Their smell. Their laughs, their looks, their everything. (As long as their yours LOL)

7. Writing. It is such a release for me. Whether I'm writing for personal release or for a book, I enjoy EVERY.LITTLE.BIT.OF.IT.

OKAY! Pass it on... I give this lovely Award to.... Some of the new blogs I'm following....

***** Dear Neighbor, Your bark all freakin' day Collie, which you apparently do not hear... is great! The new chihuahua I saw today you got makes me OH so happy! I just want to say Thank You. I also wish to note that since it's Spring break, and the children are out of school for these next two weeks, that I do believe that your child is definatley the next "American Idol!" Screaming... and I mean SCREAMING Eminem lyrics at 8 am this morning in total tone deafness gives a total shoe-in. And I do say... Eminem is the TOP choice of lyrics for all 7 year olds! It goes well with the Ghost Buster sound track that you play when you clean your house. (YES, that's right. The Ghost Busters.) Who you gonna call? Shoot me NOW!

***** Daughter of mine..... The Easter Bunny quit a few years ago. You WILL still receive a basket. this DOES NOT mean that while shopping tonight that I will pick out your things while you are WITH me so that you will see them now. GEEZ.

***** My 10 year old cat has decided that jumping on the table is OK. He has decided that drinking the water out of my floating candle votives is acceptable. The tablesppon of vinegar I am adding tonight to each one will surely surprise his tastebuds tonight. I'm assuming....

*****Why is it that I am the ONLY ONE in the house who can not turn on the TV? All I wished to do was see the weather. Apparently I needed to change it to 91. Push Audio, Push 3, channel up....etc. etc. Don't ON just work? UGH!

Sunny Day!

Just a Sunny Day for Bubbles!!!! And SMILES!!!! AND Sweet Daughters and neices!!!

***** 60 and 70 degree weather is awesome! Spring break starts today for my kiddo! Monday we're getting snow. Does anyone else find this not so funny?

***** Somewheres in the golden rule book where a bird MUST poop on your car right after you wash it must be followed up by your cat MUST puke on the floor soon after you vaccume.

***** Every day I drop my Middle Schooler off at the circle drive way of the parent drop off of the school. It's a circle. You drive around. The child gets out. This is simple. Why do parents insist on not waiting and try to drive around you to get in front of you to attain the front of the circle? I am often compelled to suggest a circle drop off mediator at the next PTA meeting...seriously.

***** Am I the only one who can't stand the "Do-IT-Yourself" Scan at the grocery Stores? I feel like an idiot arguing with a machine saying "I DID put it in the bag!"

***** I really hate half-days of school. I feel like I just dropped her off and now I have to pick her up soon. Couldn't I just have slept in?
