Blogging...because I can!


Oh, none of this will make any sense, I know I'm going to ramble on, and on! Also none of the contents will be relevant and maybe not even interesting to you! but I'm gonna do it any way!!


I'm always on the look out for things to blog about...... when it occurred to me today, I should blog more about me!!! (hehehe)


So here we have it!! Today we took the kids for a walk in the lakes, boy was it cold!! Anyway I had to use the bathroom (no surprises there), and I went into the public restrooms, the ones that kinda stink of urine and are awfully dark! And I walked right down to the end of the cubicles and chose to go into the end one! I realise that I ALWAYS do this, I can't take a pee in a middle toilet!! I think I watched to many horror films as a teen or something, but I just can't go when there is an open space on either side!! How weird is that!!! Seriously I think its the candy man film, or maybe in was scream 2, I don't know, but even if that end cubical is gross, I'd either still use it, or not go.. the middle ones just ain't an option!!!!


Then on the way home the radio DJ was talking about her favourite smell, which set me and Chris of, mine is the smell of a new born, but my own new born not anybody's... I don't go round sniffing babies!! And Christian's is fresh cut grass!!! The DJ's was fish and chips with salt and vinegar on...... mmmmm mmmmmm. But there is so many smells I adore, fresh bread, bacon cooking in a morning, the smell in the air right after its rained!! I could go on!!!


Now I just have to blog about this new, slightly weird thing I have for Bonnie and Clyde, yes THE Bonnie and Clyde, the notorious spree killers.... sort of ish!! Well my thing is more with Bonnie Parker, now I read a book that my Mum got me for Xmas (thanks Mum... all your fault) And there was a chapter on Bonnie and Clyde! in case your wondering the book is called Sweetheart killers! ( I KNOW, I'm not normal) I like this sort of stuff, not in a unhealthy fixated way, but as a hobby, to want to know why they killers are driven to kill!


Anyhooooo, After I finished the bit on Bonnie and Clyde, there is this section of poems written by Bonnie Parker, and boy did she have a talent! I then got to googling and discovered that Bonnie wasn't actually a felony, and she was only wanted on ONE account as aiding and assisting Clyde of stealing and driving a stolen vehicle!! But still she was gunned down and killed in 1934. Shot in ambush where the officers didn't stop shooting until they had no more ammunition! I'm not defending her or him, but I do find the story to one that is slightly sad! Sad that in fear of there lives one officer shot of one of her hands so she couldn't return fire, sad that when they stopped shooting Bonnie was found with her head between her knees. Sad that as word got out, people were cutting items of clothes off Bonnie and Clyde, and one man even tried to cut off Clyde's ear, and a finger as a souvenir!!! (NICE) And that Bonnie Parker's family were denied the right to her personal belongings, which were also later sold!!! When the police stopped Bonnie and Clyde on the 23rd May they only asked them once to surrender, and when the final two of the Barrow gang didn't assist, the officers opened fire.


There was no regret except from one officer. In the years after, Prentiss Oakley was reported to have been troubled by his actions He was the only posse member to publicly express regret for his actions.


I don't know... I know what they did was wrong, but I don't feel that they we're cold hearted killers, not like the likes of Ted Bundy, John Wayne Gacy and Ed Gein, I just have this "thing" for the sad ending of Bonnie Parker's life!! She was a romantic and she was in love.... It has been said that, if she hadn't of fallen for Clyde Barrow then she would never of gone down the path she did. I think its clear from some of the remaining photo's of the pair, that she was very much in love.

I was also slightly horrified to read that the Ford car that was ambushed is STILL on display in a casino in Nevada (I think), and found it strange, that there is a memorial at the sight of the shooting, in their memories! Like they were heroes! I want to know more, its grabbed mt attention!!! Maybe I was Bonnie in my past life (LOL).....still if anyone wants to but me a ticket........I'm not American, I was not around in the 30's, (well i night of been) and I'm sure that they reined terror, and I also would like to remember the victims and their familys, for all the suffering they incured.


OK, I'm done!!! Back to 2009!!


Well, I have flu thing going on and I'm going to lay down... and I'm slightly upset at the fact, that very very soon Ms Tiff won't be pregnant, and who will I moan to then!!! xxx


Oh yeah... I have to leave you with this Poem... I know she was "bad" but Its just amazing!
You don't want to marry me, Honey,
though just to hear you ask me is sweet
if you did you'd regret it tomorrow
for I'm only a girl of the street.
Time was when I'd gladly of listened
before I was tainted with shame
but it wouldn't be fair to you, honey
men laugh when they mention my name
Back there on the farm in Nebraska
I might of said "yes" to you then
but I thought that the world was a playground.
Just teeming with Santa clause men
So I left the old home for the city
to play in its mad, dizzy whirl
never knowing how little of pity
it holds for a slip of a girl
You think I'm still good looking Honey?
but no, I'm faded and spent
Even Helen of Troy would look seedy,
if she followed the pace that I went
But that day I came from the country
with my hair down my back in a curl,
Through the length and breadth of the city
there was never a prettier girl.
I soon got a job in the chorus
with nothing but looks and a form
I had a new man every evening
and my kisses were thrilling and warm
I might of sold then for a fortune
To some old sugar Dady with dough
But youth calls to youth for its lover
There was plenty that I didn't know.
Then I fell for the "line" of a "junker"
A slim devotes of hop,
those dreams in the juice of a poppy
had got me before I could stop
But I didn't care while he loved me,
Just to lie in his arms was delight;
but his ardor grew cold and he left me
In a Chinatown "hop Joint" one night
Well I didn't care them, what happened,
A Chink took me under his wing,
And down in a hovel of Hell-
I laboured for hop and Ah-sing
Oh, no, I'm no longer a "junker".
The police came and got me one day
And I took the one cure that is certain,
That island out there in the bay.
Don't spring that old gag of reforming,
A girl hardly ever comes back
Too many are eager and waiting
To guide her feet off the track
A man can break every commandment
And the world still will lend him a hand
Yet, a girl that has loved, but un-wisely
Is an outcast all over the land
You see how it is, don't you Honey?
I'd marry you know If I could,
I'd go with you back to the country,
But I know it won't do any good
For I'm only a poor branded woman
And I can't get away from the past,
Good Bye, and God bless you for asking
But I'll stick it out now, till the last.
Bonnie Parker (Oct 1st 1910 - May 23 1934)

The twilight zone...


This is me at 20 week preggers.... OMG.... how big will I be at term!?!?!???





  • How can so many things happen in the twilight zone??? Well between the hours of 11pm and 7am!!



I was beat last night, and as I took the kids to bed at 730pm, I turned in myself!! Lazy, pregnant, I don't know but I needed sleep!!! So I read a book for a hour or so, and I fell asleep at about 830pm, I woke to use the bathroom at around 1130pm, and was just drifting of to sleep when Christian came to bed a hour later! He decided to tell me that the washer had broke.... well this is my new washer that I paid more for than I wished to! He said that the glass door had cracked.... Now why would you tell a born worrier that at 1230am, when there is nothing she can do about it!!! Now I reasoned with myself, and figured there was no point in getting up to check it, I mean what could I do right??? Wrong.... Its was on my mind ALL night, and I was even worried about the fact that I had taken all the covers off the sofa to wash after Brooke's little game yesterday! And what If I couldn't wash them for a week!!!!!



Then I guess I fell asleep and at 3am, Brooke came to me, very wet, and crying! So I changed her and cuddled up to her in my bed to warm her up!Big mistake, she saw this as a playing opportunity!!! She picked my nose, pulled my hair, put her fingers in my ears!!! She sang ba ba black sheep to me and shouted for Brett until 6am! We finally got another hour until Brett woke at 7am, who is a grumpy boy, I think hes coming down with a bug!



Boy life sure is fun when your tired!!!



Oh and for those of you who are wondering... my washer is fine.... My bra that was caught in the door on the other hand, hasn't made it!!!!

The ONLY reason you should never leave your 4year old in charge!


Because Brett thought it was OK to let Brooke play with the sudocrem (a very oily butt cream for diaper rash)....... and as you can see, it was EVERYWHERE!!!! Still, she enjoyed it!! I'd only popped upstairs for a second, and Christian followed me because my second turned out to be 5 mins!!!! But we we're just sat chatting, enjoying the peace...... SILLY SILLY ADULTS!!!

5 reasons.....

.... Why Pregnancy sucks!!!


  1. New years eve was BORING!!!!
  2. Every thing I eat gives me heartburn/rising acid... call it what you like, it still hurts!!
  3. I'm growing at an alarming rate! And nothing fits me anymore!
  4. You cry at the most ridicules of things! Why oh why do the diaper ads do it every time!
  5. I'm irrational, why, well I just am!

......Why I like being pregnant!!

  1. I don't have a bad head!!
  2. I get to eat loads of rubbish, and don't have to worry, I'm gonna gain weight anyway!
  3. Growing so fast, but knowing its a baby!!
  4. Getting to cry, at anything, it gets you to get your own way!!
  5. Being irrational, I have a good excuse!!!

......Why I won't make a new yrs resolution.

  1. Whats the point, I always fail, there for making me feel bad because I failed!!
  2. Because I'll fail!!
  3. I don't like to feel bad
  4. and 5..... I dont have 5 reasons, I just wanted to share my points!!! LOL

2009!!!

Well this is the boy on his bike,...... Kids huh!!!!!

A happy 2009 to you all and may I wish you all the very best!!
