Lots of Cookie Dough in Me

Okay, okay....I have got to get my blogging act together. I have all sorts of fun things to blog about. Such as my wild and crazy dreams that have been in over abundance lately. For example: Terrorists setting off volcanoes while I'm hiking on the mountain. Or God forming our bodies from cookie dough, setting us on conveyor belts to bake. If we end up puffy (aka fat) we know God used a bigger handful of dough, and if we baked thin and crisp He used scant amounts of dough. (Hmmmm...I think I was in the more dough bucket.) Or how about the one where Brad Pitt was in a boat race. Only his boat was a hollowed out pumpkin with the goopy stringy stuff hanging into the river below. And I, lucky me, had to be the filter for the stringy stuff and swim through it, cleaning it out like an algae fish, even though I couldn't hold my breath. Believe you me, I have more from where this came from. Oh my dreams....they're going to be the death of me someday.

I told Kat I would do a post with more info about blog books...and I will....I promise Kat....someday.

And I have oodles of pictures and a couple of fun stories from our weekend family reunion.

But today, 3 out of 4 kids have already cried (we've only been awake for a little over an hour), chores are NOT getting done, and the fighting has reached obscene levels. SO, I think I'm going to shut off the computer, abandon chores today and go do something fun with my kids. Maybe the zoo, or feeding the ducks.

Don't forget to check out Shannon's auction for Kori, if you haven't already. Today is the last day to bid on items.

The death of you and me both.

I was trying to write Elena's mom, and I guess my finger was too fat and hit the enter button instead. Shoot, why did I have to get the extra cookie dough?

Elena said...

LOL! Maybe this is why we crave the cookies so much; we're made from the stupid stuff.

Oh, God was feeling extra generous when he made me. And now I'd like a cookie.

I have soooo many blog ideas. I have lists of them. I have partial entries on my computer. But I am such a procrastinator. And then I forget what I was going to tell!

And speaking of dreams. (Oh...this was another "potential" post that I never finished) Last year I received two emails from bloggers who told me that they dreamed about me. I have never met either. And one has never even commented on my blog...she's just a lurker. The dreams are HILARIOUS. Me. Sitting on a throne. Deciding who I will speak to. Or not...

Oh my! I was laughing so hard about your dreams! I love the cookie dough one though! It really cracks me up. I can't wait to hear about some of your adventures, but I think playing with your kids today was a GREAT idea! Sometimes chores just need to be put off, and great time needs to be had!

Your dreams are HILARIOUS! I remember when I use to dream crazy stuff...now I just dream that I am working and talking....and then I wake up and have to work and talk. Only sometimes I forget that I haven't ACTUALLY had certain conversations with people except in my dreams :)

Good times.

Now, go swim through that Brad Pitt pumpkin goo!

I'm so glad I'm not the only one with very creative dreams. I just laugh when I read your posts. Your so funny. You tell it like we all feel. Thanks!!!

On the rare occasions I get to sleep in, my dreams get wild and silly and crazy!

Sometimes they even wake me up. Not fair.

Lee Ann said...

Holy Cow those are crazy dreams! Maybe you should find someone to tell you what they mean :-)

And way to go on just "throwing in the towel." We all need to do that a little more!

Brenda said...

You put creative dreams at a whole new level! I have been having crazy ones lately, but I thought it was the whole having a baby thing! Do you just do this all the time??? Anyway, Thanks for the laugh...I can always count on you. Good luck with the kids, we are struggling over here too- it might time for school to start:)
