halloween dedication 2-Jack's Lament

halloween dedication 1-THIS IS HALLOWEEN

men must run the costume department

the other day i took kylee out with me to do some HALLOWEEN shopping. i needed to get a pitchforky thingymabob for her Devil costume and some red dye hair spray. so off we went to the HALLOWEEN store. while we were there i decided i would TRY and find myself a nun costume, so off we went searching the adult costume isles. sexy nurse. sexy cop. sexy vampire. playboy bunny. sexy ballerina. sexy cat. sexy demon lady. sexy devil. sexy sexy sexy sexy. HOLY BALLS THIS WAS MAKING ME INSANE. so as we were walking and searching these "every women's costume is SEXY" costumes, i turn to kylee and say, "BY THE WAY, YOU ARE NEVER EVER TO WEAR ANY OF THESE STUPID COSTUMES...just so you know." oh and there was a sexy Alice in wonderland...MY ALICE! HOW DARE THEY DEFILE THAT CHARACTER!
i am now stepping down from my soapbox of "the lack of costumes for women" and am saying, "isn't this a COOL PICTURE?".

time for a change

our power keeps going out because of the damn wind. yes, the damn wind. Kylee also hates the wind with me. i am making this a quickie cause i don't know when the stupid wind may take the power away again. MY HAIR IS RED. my parents now have THREE daughters with THREE different hair colors...BLACK, RED, AND BLONDE. i am now off to stress about Tessa's Halloween costume and birthday presents.

blog stalling update

OK so i haven't gotten around to getting my story typed up yet. but, i DYED MY HAIR RED. now Kylee wants red hair. also i got some more of Tessa's costume that i have to put together. Brenton has now come in to tell me he needs his daily dose of meds (he is ALOT like his mommy). he is doing so much better though. walking to school. not having his head felt for a fever. these are very big steps for him. anyways, soon i will get to my paranormal story.

blog stalling

it is late and i will write about my "paranormal experience" after i do my P90X workout. sorry but i am totally taking a lazy card tonight. check back later today for an update on how stupid people shouldn't have kids. YEAH, YOU HEARD ME.

wherein i expose my shame

so, i was reading in one of my many magazines about hoarding and the show hoarders (which i don't watch but, know about). it then asked some famous people what is it that they hoard? all of their answers i was all, "what a bunch of losers. you collect the most stupid stuff. idiots. wait...oh no. no. no. no." but i can't hide it. it is there. staring me in the face. and even though i know it is a bunch of meaningless crap...i don't want to throw them away. i can get rid of all of our baby stuff, cause we ain't goin' there again, but i can't throw away silly papers.
here it goes...HELLO, MY NAME IS MARCI RUF AND I AM A HOARDER. I HOARD MOVIE TICKET STUBS. LUCKILY, THEY ALL FIT INTO A NEAT LITTLE STACK THAT DOESN'T TAKE UP MUCH ROOM. i am a loser.

so bloody cool

movie tawk-hereafter

Walter and i got free passes to go and see this movie last night. my mother was kind enough to come and watch the kids for a late night movie. it is late now and i am tired, so i am going to make this quick.

Walter didn't know that this movie was a drama.

i did.

he didn't like it very much.

i did.

thus, Walter doesn't like drama's.

i do (depending on the drama).

YOU ARE NEXT MOLLY...DUN DUN DUNNNNN!

workout week 2 of death

i broke my stomach.

my stomach muscles are broken.

for reals. i cough, sneeze, try and sit up, it all just makes me scream in pain.

OK, i know you can't "break muscles" but, if you could...then i totally did it.

i am hoping that my body aches start to decrease this week (as is the rest of the family). Walter is getting sick of hearing me complain about my body aches.

i am kinda scared for the workout today...this is the workout that broke my stomach muscles.

THIS WORKOUT IS NOT FOR THOSE WHO SHY AWAY FROM PAIN!

fall break

and so my brain is on break too. really. on Thursday, at an outing with friends, i could not think of the word reverent. i was saying everything but that word. " OK, now we need to fold our arms and be quiet and be peaceful. you know, how you are at church, with the arm folding and the quietness." to which my friend Lisa came to my rescue and said, " REVERENT. let's be reverent. geez, Marci, has it been that long since you have been to church?"

apparently it has.

i love friends and family that can laugh at me! and still love me too...

it feels as good as it looks

my new comfty winter blanket, courtesy of my Costco excursion the other day. also, who wants special handmade Christmas gifts? but seriously, the blanket, LIKE A CLOUD OF FLUFF!

ps. HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD, even though you don't read this, LET IT BE KNOWN YOU ARE OLDER TODAY.

pumpkin pickers

why every home needs a Roxydog

the seven year old can torture her with hairdo's
the (almost) three year old makes her lay down with her

then pulls the blanket on top

and everyone has to go underneath (this is Roxy's least favorite game EVER).

workout week 1 of death

or so i am told

here we go. i am going to do the P90X program. i don't know how well i am going to do, but i know i have a determined personality. my bro in law has let me borrow his and my sister has said that she wants to do it after she has her baby GIRL. i am thinking of doing updates every Monday, so that everyone can follow along on my self-inflicted painful journey to an AWESOME BODY. READY, SET,...DEATH. PAIN IS MY FRIEND!

very controversial and just being honest

so yesterday i noticed that there was some meeting going on downtown, and by meeting i mean protest. this, of course, piqued my interest because...everything anti whatever interests me. which, in turn, makes me research this new found interest. i will admit right now and here that i did not watch ALL of conference. i did catch the last few talks but, i did miss the one that was being protested. so i decided to go and look it up and read it word for word. it is Boyd Packer's talk that the gay and lesbian community have a problem with. when i went back and read it, it seemed to me to REALLY FOCUS ON PORNOGRAPHY. not once did i read the word GAY. now, i am willing to come out and say i do not have a problem or issue with the gay and lesbian group. in fact, i feel for them and their plight and love them with all my heart. i don't believe that it can be rehabilitated and i am having a hard time understanding certain stances on it. i can see where they could take a sentence or two and say, "he is saying he hates us" but, they could only say that in an indirect way and the word HATE was never used.
i guess what it comes down to is this...if you hate the church so much for their stance on family being of man and woman then why are you wasting your time on it? move on somewhere else and put your energy into that. and if you are going to use PROP 8, other religions played a part in that too. (although truth be told, i would have voted against it)
i wonder how many people are going to dislike me for this? i am the most open and loving person in the world. i don't think you can put anyone in a box and be made to decide what they should believe...thus here i am. love me or leave me. NO MISSPELLINGS WERE FOUND IN THIS...I AM SO PROUD OF MYSELF. (i can't believe i am posting this, what am i thinking?)

i should have named her trouble

i am having to research THIS and THIS because of HER.

seriously.

this is my life.

everyday.

ok, not everyday.

but, it feels like it...sometimes.

especially when i have a headache.

she has only worn this outfit TWICE...TWO TIMES!

ALSO...I AM HAVING A NIECE!

she has been my favorite

since the beginning. and now (and kyle you may disagree) she has put B Spears to SHAME. this girl can out dance and out sing her. OOPS SHE DID IT AGAIN!

her comments are the funniest things on GLEE.
PS-i get to find out if i am having a neice or nephew today. so happy it isn't me but, so happy it is a baby i can love like my own.

plagued with bad dreams

so it is 1:30 AM and i have just awoken after having been harassed by bad dreams. now, if it were stressful dreams, i could cope. but, these dreams, these are horror movie dreams. why i am having them, i don't know? so. SO I FOUND OUT ABOUT THIS!! walter, if you are reading this, WE MUST ATTEND...NOW. GET THE TICKETS NOW!

ok, i am back off to bed, and as they say...SWEET DREAMS. NEENOONEENOONEENOO (you have to sing that in your head with a scary voice for full effect).

MY baby sleeping with HER baby

i am sorry i don't have much to say today (XTREME CRAMPS FOR XTREME PERSONALITIES) except...HOW FREAKING CUTE IS THIS PICTURE?

took longer than it should have

i have changed my blog settings. i consider this a great feat because, blogger went up and changed the template settings on me. i no longer get to go about it the easy way. it is a little more complicated now, but not bad enough that i couldn't figure it out with a little screwing around. beyond that, all i have to say is, WE HAVE THE FLU HERE. MARCI OUT!

HAPPY OCTOBER. WHAT ARE YA GONNA BE?
