Angry Birds!!!

[to the tune of Hey There Delilah]

Hey there dear Angry Birds
What's it like to be so angry
Flying through the air trying to kill all of those green piggys
It's what you do..You know it's true

Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me

Hey there dear Angry Birds
Why do you make me so angry
Flying through the air not knocking down hardly anything
I need 3 stars, Who do you think you are

Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me

I needed some way to vent my Angry Bird steam...This is how it happened to come out =)

And since I am on the subject of Angry Birds...We were in Walmart last night.
Adam finds a randomly placed stuffed Angry Bird..and throws it at a toilet paper display..which does not budge..his response.."the red ones are weak" =)))

"The Great Pancake Massacre"

and so October 7, 2011 became the day of "The Great Pancake Massacre".

Before I go on I would like for the record to show that I DID make pancakes yesterday morning with no problems or complications whatsoever.

-"Anna do you want jelly biscuits for b'fast of pancakes again?"
-"Ughhh. Pancakes, yeah!"

Anna received the first pancake. It was a picture of perfection in the pancake realm, but it just went downhill from there. Her pancake was just the right shade of golden loveliness and as fluffy as your favorite pillow.
The others, however, =/..may they rest in peace.

I poured the batter, flipped at what I thought was the right time...NOPE wrong answer. The next 6 pancakes never had a chance. I'm not sure where the cooking took its turn down the wide path to destruction..but it did most certainly turn.
What was meant to be a nice quiet breakfast with my daughters soon turned into me running around to open all the doors and jumping up and down like a maniac waving a dish towel at the screaming smoke detector. [hey I'm not the only one who's been here]

Needless to say Anna is enjoying her pancake perfection while I sit in a hazy room that reeks of DEFEAT..who knew that DEFEAT smells like smoke that I'm sure will still be lingering when Adam gets home.

I'm wondering how many neighbors heard my smoke detector...after all it went off 4 times.
Oh the days as a stay-at-home mom....I love it!

Some days....smh!

Have you ever found yourself surrounded by chaos...and you think to yourself...or maybe talk to yourself [which my husband pointed out this evening] I do a lot of, "what is happening?"

You can sum up the chaotic-ness of my day with this.

I've found dishes in the toy box...and in the fridge or as Anna says the "a-rator"...I found 2 pair of Anna's big girl panties, Curious George, and a hot wheels car that I'm still not sure of where it came from and how it found it's way into my home much less the refrigerator.

Things like this cause me to shake my head. [smh]

Another thing that caused me to drop my head in disbelief today..My husband asked me to compete in....[wait for it].......The Spartan Run.
It is a 5k that has obstacles such as mud pits, barb wire crawls, scaling walls,and running with buckets of rocks.
Let me set something straight here..I don't run and I don't qualify in any way as a "Spartan".
Second of all who in there RIGHT mind would pay to do this...this torture.
I MIGHT jog a . 5k [please note the decimal in front of that 5]. I would say a . 5k is heart healthy =)
