I? have created a monster

So after hours of frustration on Michelle's computer last night, I got her up and working.
My how the tides have turned. She was on until some God awful time this morning.
Today? She has been on the computer for almost 5 hours. Yes, 5 hours.

I have been grocery shopping.
I made a homemade marinade and chopped up all of the veggies and meat and prepared them for tonight's stir fry.
I have done 5 loads of laundry.
I have put three loads away.
I have cleaned the kitchen and emptied the garbage. For those who don't know, I do NOT ever empty the garbage. Never. It's gross, it smells bad and it's icky. But today I did.
I made iced coffee frappes.
I cleaned off the back patio.
I looked at my bathroom in an attempt to have it clean itself. I decided against cleaning the entire bathroom so I just cleaned the bathtub.
I ran to 7-11. No weiners today TYVM.
I also cleaned the catboxes. Another thing that I never do.

all of this accomplished while she sat with partypoker in front of her. She said today was a lazy day for her.
Ya think?

It's about time you gave the poor girl a break and did some of the cleaning yourself. :P

Wednesday Coco, pantsless Wednesday.

MM, i will be reminding her for the next month about all that I did today.
"Carey, will you please vacuum?"
"Honey, remember back a month ago when I did all that stuff? I've done my chores for the year"

Thank you, Arkie. I need that after today.

Nutz, you have no idea. Since I wrote this, I have cooked dinner, done the dishes and finished another load of laundry. And while I was upstairs I did a little eyebrow plucking too.
I'm ready for a bloody mary. I think I'll go make one and be done with my chores for the day.

Well, I like Michelle and I say she stays.

Hey MM...I can't scroll your blog. What is up with that? How do I get the page to scroll down.

Blogger mm said...

monsty, I don't know. Sometimes it works for me, sometimes not. There are two scroll bars, one at the far right and one next to the text. Did it work before?

Heh, sorry Monsty. I meant a good monster. This means that she will stop hassling me about my computer usage. She hasn't complained once this weekend. We can sit here and ignore each other in perfect marital bliss.

As for MM's blog. If you use a mouse, I can't help you. But if you use a pad on your laptop, just put the pointer thingy over the words and scroll. then it works. If you go the far left it will scorll the entire page.

I can certainly empathise with you if you had to do all the chores while your SO sat around doing nothing. I know it well.

May I have an iced coffee frappe? How did you make them?

In her defense, I'm usually sitting around while she is working, so....

Made extra strong coffee in my Senseo single cup maker. Threw it in the blender with vanilla, Splenda,milk, half n half and ice. Pressed Frapee.

Sweetie, anytime you need or want a back rub, just let me know. *wink*

Carey, you didn't tell me you were going on vacay!!!

Oh, wait- that's a vacay for me. Anytime the kids and DH aren't here, I get to make frappes.

Otherwise it's just a big shat blender.

/beyatching and moaning.

And not once did you say will you get off that damn puter?! Awesome...come clean at my house next weekend so Michelle and I can play poker together!

tee hee "poke her" together *snort* just entertaining myself here!

I think it would be unwise of me to tell her to get off the computer. This is just payback. She finally turned the puter off at 9pm last night.

If she does this next weekend, I will be glad to come and clean everybody's house. *grin*
