Many uses for Vodka:<br />
<br />
1. To remove a bandage painlessly, saturate the bandagewith vodka. The solvent dissolves the adhesive.<br />
2. To clean the caulking around bathtubs and showers,fill a trigger-spray bottle with vodka, spray the caulking,let set 5 minutes and wash clean. The alcohol in the vodkakills mold and mildew.<br />
3. To clean your eyeglasses, simply wipe the lenses with asoft, clean cloth dampened with vodka. The alcohol in thevodka cleans the glass and kills germs.<br />
4. Prolong the life of razors by filling a cup with vodka andletting your safety razor blade soak in the alcohol aftershaving. The vodka disinfects the blade and prevents rusting.<br />
5. Spray vodka on vomit stains, scrub with a brush,then blot dry.<br />
6. Using a cotton ball, apply vodka to your face as anastringent to cleanse the skin and tighten pores.<br />
7. Add a splash of vodka to a 12-ounce bottle of shampoo.The alcohol cleanses the scalp, removes toxins from hair and stimulates the growth of healthy hair.<br />
8. Fill a 16-ounce trigger-spray bottle and spraybees or wasps to kill them.<br />
9. Pour 1/2 cup vodka and 1/2 cup water in a freezer bagand freeze for a slushy, reusable ice pack for aches,pain or black eyes...<br />
10. Fill a clean, empty jar with freshly packed lavender flowers. Fill the jar with vodka, seal the lid tightly, andset it in the sun for 3 days. Strain liquid, then apply thetincture to aches and pains.<br />
11. Make your own mouthwas by mixing 9 tablespoonspowered cinnamon with 1 cup vodka. Seal in an airtightcontainer for 2 weeks. Strain through a coffee filter. Mixwith warm water and rinse your mouth. (DON'T SWALLOW!)<br />
12. Using a cotton swab, apply vodka to a cold sore to help it dry out.<br />
13. If blister opens, pour vodka over the raw skin as a local anestheic that also disinfects the exposed dermis.<br />

17. To cure foot odor, wash your feet with vodka.<br />
18. Vodka will disinfect and alleviate a jellyfish sting.<br />
19. Pour vodka over an area affected with poison ivy toremove the urushiol oil from your skin.<br />
20. Swish a shot of vodka over an aching tooth. Allow your gums to absorb some of the alcohol to numb the pain. And, my personal favorite...<br />
21. If all else fails, just turn the bottle upside-downand drink it.<br />
<br />
Then nothing else will matter anyway!</span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9083940574088646086.post-23930640205501611072011-02-10T11:16:00.000-08:002011-02-10T11:16:27.365-08:00Grumpy, Dopey,Happy<div class="post-body" style="color: black;"> <div> <img alt="" border="0" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4834/918/200/grumpy.jpg" style="float: left; margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px;" /><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">I was looking over my blog today and realized that it's just been full of quizzes and jokes.<br />
I haven't posted anything of real substance in awhile.<br />
I just haven't had anything to say.<br />
Until now.<br />
<br />
I got some really bad news about a family member. It has really upset me.<br />
I've never blogged about this particular situation, so it's hard to start now. It would be quite lengthy anyway, not sure I could hold your attention for that long.<br />
<br />
I'm so torn on this matter. I feel so selfish for being so upset about how this is affecting me, and not as much how it's affecting them. Someone is devastated right now. Crushed.<br />
I can't be there for them. I can't do anything. I can't even talk about it.<br />
Very few people know this part of my life, so it's hard to share it. I hate this feeling :(<br />
<br />
This will pass of course. It's life and I will accept it.<br />
But it sucks. And it makes me grumpy. Which leads to dopey.<br />
But then, I'll be back to happy again :)<br />
<br />
It's interesting. I lead a pretty routine life. Which you all know. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Pretty basic, pretty boring sometimes.<br />
Then with </span><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Laura's</span><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"> post the other day, and then this recent news...It's been an emotional week. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">So..I need a little Calgon.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">A little Jose Cuervo.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">And some of those Cherry Cordial Hershey Kisses.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">And I'll be fine :)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Dear Alcohol,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">First and foremost, let me tell you that I'm a huge fan of yours. Your many dimensions are mind boggling.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Yes, my friend, you always seem to be there when needed.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">The perfect evening cocktail, a beer with the game, and you're even around in the holidays hidden inside chocolates as you warm us when we're stuck in the midst of endless family gatherings. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Yet lately I've been wondering about your intentions. While I want to believe that you have my best interests at heart, I feel that your influence has led to some unwise consequences, briefed below for your review.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">*1. Phone calls: While I agree with you that communication is important, I question the suggestion that any conversation of substance or necessity takes place after 2am.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">*2. Eating: Now, you know I love a good meal and, though cooking is far from my specialty, why you suggested that I eat a hot dog with chili, coupled with pickles and some stale chips (washed down with chocolate Nesquik and topped off with a Kit Kat all after a few cheetos and chili cheese fries) is beyond me. Eclectic eater I am, but I think you went too far this time.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">*3. Clumsiness: Unless you're subtly trying to tell me that I need to do more yoga to improve my balance, I see NO need to hammer the issue home by causing me to fall down. Completely unnecessary. Similarly, it should never take me more than 45 seconds to get the front door open.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">*4. Pictures: This can be a blessing in disguise, as it can often clarify the last point below, but the following costumes are banned from ever being placed on my head in public again: Indian wigs, sombreros, bows, ties, boxes, upside-down cups, inflatable balloon animals, traffic cones, bras.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Furthermore, the hangovers have GOT to stop.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Now, I know a little penance for my previous evenings debauchery may be in order, but the 2pm-hangover immobility is completely unacceptable. I ask that, if the proper precautions are taken (water, vitamin B, bread products, aspirin) prior to going to bed/passing out facedown on the kitchen floor with a bag of cheetos, the hangover should be minimal and in no way interfere with my daily Saturday or Sunday (or any day for that matter) activities. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Come on now, it's only fair-- you do your part, I'll do mine.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Alcohol, I have enjoyed our friendship for some years now and would like to ensure that we remain on good terms. You've been the invoker of great stories, the provocation for much laughter, and the needed companion when I just don't know what to do with the extra money in my pockets. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">In order to continue this friendship, I ask that you carefully review my grievances above and address them immediately. I will look for an answer no later than Thursday 3pm (pre-happy hour) on your possible solutions and hopefully we can continue this fruitful partnership.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Thank you,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Your biggest fan</span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9083940574088646086.post-1573542551203750022011-02-10T11:12:00.000-08:002011-02-10T11:12:58.334-08:00It's December?<div class="post-body" style="color: black;"> <div> <img alt="" border="0" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4834/918/200/CL6.jpg" style="float: left; margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px;" /> <span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">It's 3am. I can't sleep. So I'm just going to bug all of you :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">We're finally getting into double digits during the day. It's amazing how good 20 degrees feels after dealing with 5 below. Guess I can put the jackets away!<br />
I haven't even begun to decorate for Christmas, now I'm wondering if it's just too late. I did have the lights out and played with them a bit, but as of now they are still sitting on the kitchen counter. Oh, the cats played with them a bit. They are a big help when dealing with lights and garland.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">This month so far has felt like a whirlwind, I keep forgetting that it's even December. Quite a few things have changed for me lately, some good/some not-so-good...it's kind of a blur.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">I've had new people enter my life lately, and I've had some leave too. It's wierd to have such happiness and sadness all in one swoop. Strange emotions to deal with.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">I had expected family for Christmas, but that has changed. I usually decorate for me anyway, but with me being the only one here mostly for the holidays, it seems pointless. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Don't get me wrong, I'm not being humbug or anything like that, just not sure if I want to start digging through decorations, just to put them back up in two weeks. Also, this will be Critter's (see photo) first experience with decorations and trees and I'm sure it will be quite the fight to keep everything decorated. He's the nosiest thing I've ever seen.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">He.must.know.what.I'm.doing.at.all.times. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">-I did get Christmas cards out, that was an achievement.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">-The berries are thawing now to start making jam.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">-I have been taking photos, just need to download.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">-Deer hunting season is over (yay) but then it moved right into mountain lion season (ick).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">-The pond is frozen solid. Or at least solid enough for Brock to run across it. It's always scary that first time he runs onto the pond. Of course it would be me that would have to try to get him out. And as ya'll know, I'd be alone :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">-Funny thing, all my little Texas cats don't want to go outside now. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">-Actually, even the Montana cats don't want to stay outside.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">I really really want to see The Chronicles of Narnia! I've heard such great reviews. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Any of you want to build a movie theater near me? I'd be very grateful....</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Okay, enough of the meandering babble.... </span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Oh and ya'll do know the previous post is a joke, right? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">I haven't worn a bra on my head in years. :) </span></div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9083940574088646086.post-52525968691625295492011-02-10T11:11:00.000-08:002011-02-10T11:11:19.077-08:00Puns-O-Fun<div style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">1.

<br />
When I say to move, it means go someplace else, not switch positions with each other so there are still two dogs in the way.<br />
The dishes with the paw print are yours and contain your food. The other dishes are mine and contain my food. Please note, placing a paw print in the middle of my plate and food does not stake a claim for it becoming your food and dish, nor do I find that aesthetically pleasing in the slightest.<br />
<br />
The stairway was not designed by Nascar and is not a racetrack. Beating me to the bottom is not the objective. Tripping me doesn't help, because I fall faster than you can run.<br />
<br />
I cannot buy anything bigger than a king size bed. I am very sorry about this. Do not think I will continue to sleep on the couch to ensure your comfort.Look at videos of dogs sleeping. They can actually curl up in a ball. It is not necessary to sleep perpendicular to each other stretched out to the fullest extent possible.<br />
<br />
I also know that sticking tails straight out and having tongues hanging out the other end to maximize space used is nothing but doggy sarcasm.<br />
<br />
For the last time, there is no secret exit from the bathroom. If by some miracle I beat you there and manage to get the door shut, it is not necessary to claw, whine, try to turn the knob, or get your paw under the edge and try to pull the door open. I must exit through the same door I entered. In addition, I have been using bathrooms for years; canine attendance is not mandatory.<br />
<br />
The proper order is kiss me, then go smell the other dogs butt. I cannot stress this enough. It would be such a simple change for you.<br />
<br />
Rules for non pet owners who visit and like to complain about our pets:<br />
<br />
1. The dog lives here. You don't.<br />
2. If you don't want dog hair on your clothes, stay off the furniture.<br />
3. I like my dog a lot better than I like most people.<br />
4. To you, she's a dog. To me, she's an adopted daughter who is short,hairy, walks on all fours and doesn't speak clearly.<br />
5. Dogs are better than kids. They eat less, don't ask for money all thetime, are easier to train, usually come when called, never drive your car, don't hang out with drug-using friends, don't smoke or drink, don't worry about buying the latest fashions, don't wear your clothes, don't need agazillion dollars for college, and if they get pregnant, you can sell the pups.</span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9083940574088646086.post-28320857065191737572011-02-10T11:08:00.000-08:002011-02-10T11:08:57.338-08:00Say Cheese<div class="post-body" style="color: black;"> <div> <img alt="" border="0" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4834/918/200/digg.jpg" style="float: left; margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px;" /><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">I spent my entire day in Coeur D'alene, Idaho yesterday. We did our usual grocery shopping along with Costco and Home Depot.<br />
Costco and Walmart were just insane with crowds. I love Costco, but I hate when I have to manuever around 50 people who want to try the newest snack that an elderly person is handing out. It was like some kind of buffett line, just moving from one free snack to the next.<br />
<br />
Walmart wasn't much better (shocker). I did find something of interest though. While waiting to pay, I found this digital camera key chain. It was about $15.00 and it's not much bigger than a matchbox.<br />
<br />
Yes, I bought it :)<br />
Hubs was glad to buy me a camera that he didn't cringe at the price.<br />
<br />
Has it's own software and everything. I can't wait to see what kind of pics this thing produces.<br />
That will be my goal today. Well that and getting a tree. We finally decided to go get our tree.<br />
So you will probably see pics of: </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">*Cats running off with ornaments.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">*Dogs eating ornaments.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">*Dog chasing cat with garland wrapped around it.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">*Cats in tree.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">*Dogs stepping on lights and breaking them.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;">*Me wondering why I decided to decorate.....</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Maybe I should make a collage??</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">(*oh and to all dog and cat owners out there, be very careful with tinsel. They can eat this stuff and get it all twisted in their intestines. It can make them very sick and sometimes has to be removed surgically. I've seen it more than once*)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Here they are! The best mini-cam photos I could come up with. It was the wierdest little camera. But what do you expect from a $15.00 keychain camera? There was of course no focus, or zoom or anything really resembling a camera. It has 70 photos available on it, but I only took about 10. These were the best from it. It would be a cute gift for a kid maybe. I still want to play with it some more so more to come.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">I finally drove my new truck! Only weeks after the purchase. It was really great, such a nice truck. Of course it's out of here tomorrow with the hubs. I'm actually going to be carless, as his truck is in the shop. Normally not a big deal, since I don't leave the house much, but since you guys know I live in the world of Murphy's Law, something is bound to happen.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">I found out today that we have gone almost 3 weeks without going over 30 degrees. It's a record. I'd actually like 30 degrees right now, I'm getting tired of feeding horses in 7 degree weather. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">We didn't find a tree today :( The tree farm was down to nothing so we decided to search our own property. We do have many many trees, but none quite full enough or strong enough right now to hold ornaments. So, I'm thinking there will be no tree this year. I do plan on pulling out the lights and stockings and stuff anyway.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">I also have this great Christmas village I might pull out. It's huge, must have at least 40 pieces to it. Hmmm...I see photo opportunities :)</span></div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com
