I’ve been slammed at work, and trying to get everything done before we leave for the weekend. We’re going camping, YAY! I got my test results back on Monday, and everything is good. No bad cancer, YAY!

So just a YAY YAY YAY to everything and everyone, and have a great weekend.

Since I have teenage boys that I had to keep reminding that Mother’s Day was today, I went out and bought myself a gift, from them. You know, to save them the trouble, right?.

I got a new kitchen trash can. Oh this isn’t just your ordinary trash can! It’s a Simple Human - Fingerprint-Proof Rectangular Step Can. It is by far the sexiest trash can I have ever seen, and I stimulated the economy all right.

See for yourself…

watch it work

Oh dear God…what path did I follow that made me think a trash can was sexy? Oh I know! The kind where I don’t have to clean dirty ass fingerprints off a trash can path.

If they set this one on fire, they are dead!

Mother’s Day, Mother’s Day gifts

Happy Mother’s Day to all the Mothers out there that bite their tongues, hold their arms back from knocking the living shit out of your children, and still wake up in the morning with so much love in your heart for them, that you think it’s going to burst.

Without you I am Julie, but with you I am a mother. The most important name I have ever had.

Excuse me while I make a few phone calls to find out why my 17 yr old isn’t home, and it’s past curfew. *sigh*

Mother’s Day, teenagers, mother, mom

We stopped at The Cupcakery today to check them out. I’ve heard great things, and I just had to try them.

There are so many kinds, and I wanted to try them all, so we got a dozen to take home. We’re going to ignore the $30/dozen price tag for a minute and talk about how absolutely del.icio.us they are!

Back row left to right:

• Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup - Rich chocolate cake topped with crunchy peanut butter frosting.
• Tickle Me Pink - Our signature cake: classic white cake with pink vanilla buttercream frosting.
• Boston Dream - Moist yellow cake, Bavarian creme filling with a cap of chocolate ganache.

Front row left to right:

• Chocolate Passion - Rich chocolate cake topped with the ultimate chocolate frosting.
• Strawberry Shortcake - Layers of moist strawberry and vanilla cake topped with a layer of strawberry buttercream and topped off with a dollop of rich heavy cream frosting.
• Pina Colada - Moist yellow cake, pina colada buttercream frosting.

We both ate a Boston Dream in the car before we left the parking lot, and Michael and I shared a Kir Royale (moist raspberry cake drenched in a bubbly champagne frosting).

As hard as it is to imagine spending $30/dozen on cupcakes, that image just melts away in your mouth, and you forget all about the price tag. They are just FANTASTIC!!!

I wasn’t expected to be poked and cut into yesterday on my follow up appointment, but that is exactly what happened. My doctor drained three large cyst, and then cut out the “abnormal” mass for further pathology test (results on Monday). I look like someone used my boobs as punching bags today. They are swollen and all bruised. Not sexy. I didn’t go into the office, so I could sit home and whine in private (and on my blog) today. Feel free to drop by the house with Grey Goose and Loratabs please.
