Today is my BFF's birthday. She turned 21 years young. She is the most nicest, loving, and happiest person you would ever meet. Today as a surprize I took her 21 balloons with a small bouquet of rainbow daisies.
After 25 years in the Navy Jim, the husband, finally retired. We found ourselves in the small town of Otto, North Carolina living next door to his parents. With three beautiful little girls that are coming into their own, everyday is an adventure in this house!

Please remove all identifying marks
I have to remeber not to wear anything that has any identifying marks. For example, I have a teeshirt that I bought at a Brad Paisley concert. It has him on the front, of course. I went to burger king and was accosted in line for my beloved Dr. Pepper. The man was mildly insane and asked me if I liked Brad Paisley then proceeded to play air guitar.
A few nights later I'm wearing one of my husbands old military chief shirts. I go to KFC and another person rapes my personal space and asks me if I was in the military. I answer yes and walk away with my tray.
Another time I was wearing a shirt that says silence I kill you. Jeff Dunham. This guy reminds me that Sam Kinison (sp?) Died of an overdose. How that had anything to do with what I was wearing I have no idea.
Lastly I have a pirate girl sticker on the drivers side window of my car and twice someone has said something to the effect of arrrgh a pirate girl.
I generally enjoy the company of strangers. But why must they talk to me?

Porn is not allowed at work
Jim wants something special for Christmas this year. Its not something that we particularly need but he somehow thinks this item will save us money in the long run. I told him there was no way I was going to purchase this item. Of course I'm going to. I think its a good idea.
So today I went to google to look up Black Friday ads since I have that day off of work I get to go shopping. I couldn't find what I needed so then I did the unthinkable. I immediately knew the error of my ways in the instant that I typed in "sausage stuffer" to the Google search bar and hit enter. With a feeling of sheer terrior I screamed in fear inside my head that slow motion nnnnnooooooooo!!!!! But there was no turning back. Slowly as I watched the green progress bar finish its trip to the end of its destination the porn pictures arrived on my 20 inch computer monitor. I was able to shut down the entire computer before anyone noticed which was a little drastic since all I needed to do was close the window that was open.
I have learned my lesson. The moral of this story is be sure to use safe search when entering Christmas lists into a google search!

Homeland Security Anyone?
Me being mom vetoed these ideas under the assumption that they were typical halloween ideas and I must come up with something different.
I had an idea that would change halloween forever for the Hill family. Jim and I were going as NCIS agents complete with hats and fully automatic weapons. Ok airsoft guns but it was all the same. The girls got to be part of my sick and twisted idea as well. They were going as terrorists.
My friends and I bought all the required definately offending gear. Camo thermals, sheets, molding clay for the C4, wires, and of course kitchen timers, and even duct tape after exclaiming loudly through the store that we needed it for the BOMBS. My friends informed me that perhaps I shouldn't say that in a store. We worked tirelessly through the night and we finally had a finished product. (See picture)
All this for one night of fantastic candy and strange giggles from the real police officers.
