Top 10

Things that are making me laugh...

1. My realtor saying "It is what it is" 350 times a day. (WTF?!?)

2. My boys playing "Jackpot" in the pool. Jack who clearly doesn't understand when his name is used in a word calls out "Jack-in-a-box" when he's suppose to yell "Jackpot", in an effort to enlighten their brother the older boys tried to explain the word....and so far we've gotten "Jack-in-a-pot" from the Jack.

3. My male housekeeper who is from Brazil, but has been learning English from Russians, now speaks English w/ a Russian accent. Adorable he is...

4. Jared who is notorious for saying bits of funny.... A few winters ago when he was cold and had to pee declared that he was "Dying of cold-ness, and pee-ness"....it's been soooo cold here we've all been saying that frequently and laughing each and every time we do....

5. Jack declaring it's "too cold here for humans" (true that)

6. The computer in the lobby gives me this message everytime I try to check Ashley's blog "Accordingly to our harmful content database SiteCoach does not allow you to visit this page!"
It displays a huge metal safe and big RED letters, and makes me feel like I'm surfing for porn....so Ash, I do not know WHAT you have on your blog...but I'm very very curious now ;)
It's the only blog I have on my sidebar it does this for....makes me laugh everytime.

7. Jack declaring he wants to move in w/ Uncle Mike so "he can play Guitar Heroes2 all da time!"

8. Jared asking if Aunt Gabby dvr'd a show he wanted to see. (because that might help us how?!? heehee)

9. The dry cleaner in town called "Fussy Cleaner", yeah, they need a new font...Colin did a bit of a double take on that one.

10. Jack refusing to get out of the truck to look at houses telling us he's "so over this house looking thing" (yeah, I am too buddy)

Just wanted to give a happy little update.
It is in fact painfully cold here but it is what it is...

We found the perfect house yesterday and made an offer,
we didn't get it because we wanted to close too quickly...
go figure.
We're off to see another one tonight though......sooooo I'm hopeful.

Van-less in Ohio

Well...it didn't snow on Wednesday.

"Funny" story.
The van was suppose to go on the truck w/ all of the rest of my home....
It didn't fit.
The menfolk tried to make it fit...they sat and stared at the van, and the very large moving truck, and the belongings of mine that were spread all across my front lawn...
they stared for a loooong time.
and that didn't make the van fit in the large truck.

I said, hey guys...how about putting the van on a different truck?!?
(Duh)

So the van was to arrive on a different truck....
That my friends was suppose to be on Wednesday. (the day of no snow)
However....
they let us know on Monday the van wouldn't be able to be delivered until....
get this...
......
February 12th.

Kid you not.

This is only made worse because in all of our brilliance...
Colin and I decided that to make room for the boys in OUR truck for the trip here...we'd pack half our clothes in the van.

It's almost ridiculous....isn't it???
Yeah...
this is my life.
