~shithouse rat~

shithouse rat…isn’t that just a fun, funny as heck statement? i have no clue at all what it means, i can kinda remember someone in my family playing a card game that i believe they called shithouse rat. but for now i’m just going to use it to my hearts content, my new fav saying…it can just be used in so many different ways. one way i used it last night “son of a shithouse rat”, love that one!

how about a little layout lovins today…this is for the new challenge up at dreamgirls. go check it out and check out the new dt members~

this new song out by joey and rory SO has my heart….seriously read these lyrics, how perfect are they? i’ve bolded my fav parts of the song…the parts i sing super loud just because i can…if i was in this girls place and my man cheated on me, this is exactly what i would write…LOVES it!

Cheater cheater where’d you meet her down at ernies bar?
Did she smile your way twirl her hair and say, how cute dimples are?
Did she use that line ‘your place or mine’ while you danced with her real slow?
tell me cheater cheater where’d you meet that no good white trash ho

Liar liar did you buy her whiskey all night long?
Did you hide your ring in the pocket of your jeans or did you just keep it on
When the deed was done an you had your fun did you think i wouldn’t know?
tell me cheater cheater where’d you meet that no good white trash ho

Now I’m not one to judge someone that I ain’t never met
But to lay your hands on a married man’s bout as low as a gal can get
Hey I wish her well as she rots in hell and you can tell her I said so
Cheater cheater where’d you meet that no good white trash ho

**monday happies**

happy monday morning ya’all…we had such a nice long weekend! joe’s mom was with us from wednesday until friday and we had a GREAT thanksgiving meal on thursday. i do have to say my cooking rocked that day.

friday we also put up the tree…SO love that (although joe always bitches that it’s too early). the only problem is ming (the cat that ate rat poison) wont leave the tree alone. yesterday he actually chewed one of the lights off, damn cat. i can SO see a scene straight out of christmas vacation coming!

saturday we went shopping for the entire day, literally…we left the house at 7:30 a.m. and came home at 8 p.m. it was a long day but a productive one. my mom went with us and geesh, that woman can shop circles around me! jade got her hair cut and it looks so cute, now it’s all the same length as her bangs.

yesterday we just hung around the house…i worked on christmas presents all day long. such an awesome-creative day! i tried to crochet a little bit…and then remembered why i haven’t done it for years…we are SO not friends! i am the worlds worst crocheter!

the new challenge went up yesterday at guttergirlz…and you will NEVER freakin’ believe who the honorary gutter girl is…LINDA WOODS! linda, along with her sister Karen Dinino, are the authors of journal revolution…a book i totally ADORE! so go check the challenge and lindas awesome work! here is my layout for it~i love how creative i feel around the holidays…i just can’t hardly wait each day to rush home and get creating…this year especially so. the prompt should be up at dreamgirls soon too so i will be back with another lo!

out for now

oh.my.gosh…so true!

Jeff Foxworthy’s commentary on Pennsylvania:

If you consider it a sport to sit in a tree stand all day long with a bow or a gun just to put food in your freezer, you might live in Pennsylvania

If you’re proud that your region makes the national news 96 nights each year because Bradford is the coldest spot in the nation, you might live in Pennsylvania

If your local Dairy Queen is closed from November through March, you might live in Pennsylvania. (yep, ours is!)

If someone in a store offers you assistance, and they don’t work there, you might live in Pennsylvania cause you’re all so damn friendly. (really, we are all friendly? seriously?)

If your dad’s suntan stops at a line curving around the middle of his forehead, cause he wears a hardhat you might live in Pennsylvania (ha! my dad use to have this…and everyone here has a farmers tan)

If you have worn shorts, sunglasses and a parka at the same time, you might live in Pennsylvania .

If your town has an equal number of bars and churches, or if you are in church and your priest or minister asks you to pray for the STEELERS, and wants to get you all home for 1 p.m. kickoff, you might live in Pennsylvania (yep, we got out of church early once for a football game)

If you have had a lengthy telephone conversation with someone who dialed a wrong number, you might live in Pennsylvania

YOU KNOW YOU ARE A TRUE Pennsylvanian WHEN:

1. ‘Vacation’ means going up north past I-80 for the weekend. (ha ha ha, this is SO true!)

2. You measure distance in hours. (oh my gosh, again, i do this)

3. You know several people who have hit a deer more than once. (joe and i have both hit more than one deer)

4. You often switch from ‘Heat’ to ‘A/C’ in the same day and back again.

5. You can drive 65 mph through 2 feet of snow during a raging blizzard, without flinching. (just did it this morning)

6. You see people wearing camouflage at social events (including weddings). (in my life i’ve had camo underwear, bra, skirt, pants and shorts…oh and a hair scrunchie)

7. You install security lights on your house and garage and leave all the doors unlocked. (oh boy, he knows us well doesn’t he)

8. You carry jumper cables in your car and your girlfriend knows how to use them. (yep, i know how to use them and i carry them in MY car)

9. You design your kid’s Halloween costume to fit over a snowsuit. (true true…we’ve had snow on halloween before)

10. Driving is better in the winter because the potholes are filled with snow.

11. You know all 4 seasons: almost fall, winter, still winter and road construction.

12. You can identify a southern or eastern accent.

13. Your idea of creative landscaping is a concrete statue of a deer next to your blue spruce.

14. You were unaware that there is a legal drinking age. (there is? lol…)

15. Down South to you means MORGANTOWN W.V.

16. A critter is something you eat.

17. Your neighbor throws a party to celebrate his NEW FORD F150. (hell yes…)

18. You go out to fish fry every Friday and bingo every Wednesday. (ok the fish frys are good…but bingo isn’t my thing)

19. YOUR 4TH OF JULY PICNIC WAS MOVED INDOORS DUE TO FROST. (ha ha ha…omg…dying)

20. You have more miles on your snow blower than your car.

21. You find 0 degrees ‘a little chilly.’

22. You actually understand these jokes, and you forward them to all your Pennsylvania friends
