...things are working out for me a lil'...thank God for family.
I think that this was my second birthday...
with my paternal grandma and my mom.

Did you live in my grandma's house? She had the exact same set up, right down to the tablecloth! Wow. Your mom looks like one of the Supremes!
No, she looks like Billie Holiday! What a cutie in the middle!
I want to be like that old guy in the Dos Equis XX commercials.

"I don't always drink beer, but when I do I prefer Dos Equis"....just repeat it over and over again in the mirror.
You're like that now!
Yes, but that old guy is drunk! Who else would piss away millions on beer and cheap floosies? You're already cool enough, Isis. Much love. Stay thirsty, my friend.
...that obnoxious cow above me is blasting her ballads while trying to sing along to them. I want to shoot her with a harpoon.
COMMENTS
Lol, love it! That's the way I feel about the troll downstairs
A. Bang on the ceiling in time to the beat. If this doesn't correct the situation...plan B....
B. Call the police and report a rape in the apartment upstairs. Heh.
That is one of my pet peeves noisy people lol
Got back home yesterday afternoon. Began cleaning immediately (mainly the litter box, plus vacuuming and laundry). Now - at least chores are out of the way, and I can try to relax a lil' over the weekend. While at Mom's, I did a lil' cleaning there too - not much, as she is a clean freak too, but there are some things that are harder for her to do, and she isn't suppose to do a lot of bending over with that eye for awhile.
Mom's eye surgery went well, thank God. My sis should be at her house today, and will stay for a few days. I may go back for a day or two next week before she has to go back to Southern Cal.
Maybe the three of us can do something together, like lunch, dinner, or a movie, if mom feels up to it. (She usually does - lol)!

I am a clean freak as well, to the point of obsession. My family thinks I am OCD, which may or may not explain alot. All I can say to that is, "Whats that spec on the coffee table?"
Bless your mama. Sie können lange Leben und glücklich sein!
A clean freak guy? I'm in love...
And me and me!!!

trippy.
That was awesome. He reminds me of Boots off from Shrek :P
My cat is jealous-he can only play Smoke On The Water on his guitar!
The Quick Chop is a piece of shit.
COMMENTS
I have one of those chopper things. It works pretty good, I think mine is a pampered chef one though. Maybe brand name makes a difference?
I was wondering what the quick chop was...made me cross my legs ^^
Was off from VR for a day; will be gone for another 1-2 days, as my mom will be having her eye surgery this Weds.
When I get back, it's on to more job-hunting. I'd be happy to get something part-time at this point.
COMMENTS
Best of luck with everything!!! We'll be waiting for yaz.
People like you succeed, Isis...I feel ya, though, on the job hunt; I was unemployed last year for three months. The job I have now I cling to with a vengence, even though I don't like it.
My mom was really creative with meals - while there are too many dishes to name, I can say that they were all very delicious. We had no idea that we were poor...until I caught my mom one evening after dinner eating our leftovers. I later found out that we never had much food, and she went hungry sometimes for our sakes.
My mom raised three girls on her own - she went from being on welfare temporarily to becoming a dental department supervisor in the local clinic and paying off the mortgage to own her house.
By those times, food was plentiful. So were nice clothes, toys, gadgets, spending money, etc. But I never took all of the great stuff we got for granted. Right now, I'm in a financial downward spiral - like many folks in this country. And I still don't take anything for granted. I still appreciate everything I get.
COMMENTS
If your sisters are similar in mind and spirit to you, your mom obviously did a great job on her own!
This sounds like my growing up days, and I too never take even the smallest blessing for granted.
I just read this comment from my journal - from the Diary of Isis:

Get a life off of here. You are weird and just what kind of help do you need?
This woman doesn't realize that it's just a work of fiction...duh. I am a lil' wierd, but I don't need any professional help...I don't think I do, anyway.
COMMENTS
Prime example of "open mouth...insert foot" syndrome. Geez.
Oh LOL Bloodonblood strikes again I see.
My dear Isis you are so weird,yes thats true.But we wouldnt have you any other way because your "weirdness" is awesome and inspiring.At least you arent a skankpsycorealifestalkervindicto like bloodonblood.Thats a weirdness that no one wants around.
Oh my Goddess I love it , she can't get to Queen Morbid so hse,s hitting everyone who comments on how stupid and childish she is . as for the kankpsycorealifestalkervindicto that Oceanne called her Well ...LMAO It fits that is the best yet. ISIS sweetie just join the club.
Lmao...aww but I like your weird.

Current vote count:
I AM a wierdo.
Today I am a sparkling fairy with a magic wand.
AND
I am sending you the bestesest WISHES EVER !
I hope you have a wonderful day
:D
COMMENTS
What a thoughtful gesture...
And yes...The Real Thing is a sweetie. Ebenso wie Sie ist Sie einer der Favoriten hier! And so are you, my friend!
Aww sweet.
I consider myself a nice, friendly person...which is wierd when a person comes out of the blue to rate me a not so pleasing rate. Of course, she/he is free to rate what she/he wants.
I usually rate 9's and 10's on someone's profile, and 10's on portfolios (Who am
I to judge someone's appearance)?
The reason I bring this up is because someone here rated me a 5, so I rated him/her a 4. (I think my profile is better than hers/his, so that's why it was rated one point less).
She/he came back to rate me a 3, so I just figure, nip the shit in the bud - and I rated a 1 back. I think that she/he should also rate me a 1, and be done with it...lol!
(For the record, this person's profile is basically a sexpot ad, which is fine and dandy...but so unoriginal)...
Well I need to write and maybe sketch awhile...the weather is lovely today!
COMMENTS
Why do I have the feeling I know who that is.
Yeah,theres been a few of those going around.We all know you're a sweetheart tho and your profile is worth way more than a 3.More like a ten!
*shakes head, laughing quietly*
I updated my status and noticed that she/he has me blocked...
Nevermind that I have no intention of sending a message or communicating with HER(?) When will some people learn that some of us don't even consider them to be in the same galaxy?
Thats the spirit! Never mind the twit, its a beautiful day!
Dam!
For those of you here who know me, you know that I LOVE cats!
This is soooo cute:
COMMENTS
that is sooo cute.. i love cats to.. i wonder what he was looking at hmmmm
holy crap, I think we should all bow down to our new feline master!
Thats funny as hell. I have a mentally challenged black cat who does alot of weird and funny things, sometimes scaring the crap out of me. If I ever walked into a room and saw him standing there, I'd shoot him.
I love ya' Coolley, but if you shoot that cat, I'd have to shoot you.
I will be away from VR for 1-2 days; going down to my mom's for family business, plus - she has another eye appointment before her sugery in two weeks (on one eye).
Hopefully, when I return, there won't be any major changes here...'cause everytime I'm gone from VR for 2 or more days - wham! Presto chango! LOL!
