Yeah, I am here still (TOTs)

1. If you tried to go to a blog with similar title, sorry, I hit enter instead of tab after I put a title in... so it posted a blank blog.

2. Someone the other day thought I was from Australia. (Was on voice chat with someone in SL.) ... I must be hanging around Kitty (in SL) too much! ... NOT! Luv ya Kitty!! **HUGS**

3. That horse you see above... well that is a horse I created / modified for a contest.

4. Actually, I was given the shape (it's an Arabian) & I just had to come up with the textures & so forth. (Named him Panther!) ;o)

5. That was in SL (Second Life) & yes, it's fun... but it sure was time consuming. It will be worth it if I get any type of prize! ;o)

6. Hubby started his new job this past Monday. (After being laid off for nearly 8 months.) It's going good so far.

7. In case you're wondering, he's a PLC programmer. (That's a Programmable Logic Controller)... (A control device designed specifically for industrial machines that perform logical operations compatible with traditional relay logic.)

8. If you need more explanation... Google it. (That's what I had to do. LOL)

9. In 90 days Hubby will be able to get insurance... though we need it now!

10. That's all for this edition! Too tired & too bad of a headache to do more. *waves & poofs*

Hubby got the job!!! HALLELUJAH!!!

Dessert personality test...

Here's something for fun that I received in an email from PassionWolf.
I'm taking out the "send to some many friends & etc", since I'm posting it here. (Feel free to yoink, if you want!) Enjoy!!


btw... yeah, I'm a CHOCOLATE CAKE with CHOCOLATE FROSTING kind of glad!!! No 2 ways about it! That's my 1st & only choice of the 8!!!




This is very interesting.
If all of the eight desserts listed below were sitting in front of you, which would you choose (sorry, you can only pick one)!

This is very accurate. Pick your dessert, and then look to see what psychiatrists think about you.

REMEMBER - No Cheating. Make your choice before you check the meaning.

Here are your choices:

1. Angel Food Cake
2. Brownies
3. Lemon Meringue Pie
4. Vanilla Cake With Chocolate Icing
5. Strawberry Short Cake
6. Chocolate Cake With Chocolate Icing
7. Ice Cream
8. Carrot Cake

No, you can't change your mind once you scroll down, so think carefully about what your choice will be.

OK - Now that you've made your choice, this is what the researchers say about you... SCROLL DOWN



1. ANGEL FOOD CAKE -- Sweet, loving, cuddly. You love all warm and fuzzy items. A little nutty at times. Sometimes you need an ice cream cone at the end of the day. Others perceive you as being childlike and immature at times.

2. BROWNIES -- You are adventurous, love new ideas , and are a champion of underdogs and a slayer of dragons When tempers flare up you whip out your saber. You are always the oddball with a unique sense of humor and direction. You tend to be very loyal.

3. LEMON MERINGUE -- Smooth, sexy, & articulate with your hands, you are an excellent caregiver and a good teacher. But don't try to walk and chew gum at the same time. A bit of a diva at times, you set your own style because you do your own thing. You shine when it comes to helping others and have many friends.

4. VANILLA CAKE WITH CHOCOLATE ICING -- Fun-loving, sassy, humorous, not very grounded in life; very indecisive and lacking motivation.. Everyone enjoys being around you, but you are a practical joker. Others should be cautious in making you mad. However, you are a friend for life.

5. STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE -- Romantic , warm, loving. You care about other people, can be counted on in a pinch and expect the same in return. Intuitively keen. You can be very emotional at times but a true person in every way. You like to do things for yourself and help others learn about themselves.

6. CHOCOLATE CAKE WITH CHOCOLATE ICING-- Sexy; always ready to give and receive.. Very creative, adventurous, ambitious, and passionate. You can appear to have a cold exterior but are warm on the inside. Not afraid to take chances.. Will not settle for anything average in life. Love to laugh.

7. ICE CREAM -- You like sports, whether it be baseball, football, basketball, or soccer. If you could, you would like to participate, but you enjoy watching sports. You don't like to give up the remote control. You tend to be self-centered and high maintenance.

8. CARROT CAKE -- You are a very fun loving person, who likes to laugh. You are fun to be with. People like to hang out with you. You are a very warm hearted person and a little quirky at times. You have many loyal friends. You were meant to lead and teach others. A wonderful role model.

This is absolutely FRIGHTENING!!!

This just MORE proof that the government is trying to control us all!!

I'm sorry... if this upsets anyone... please do NOT take it out on me... I am just sharing this video with all so that you can be informed!! If you don't agree, fine... just please do NOT start a debate on my blog. I am not in the right mood to deal with it! (Matter of fact, I'm turning off the replies to this particular blog. If you wish to comment to me about this, please send me a private message!!!)

Anyway... please please please watch this video in FULL before you even THINK about going to the cars.gov site!!! If you haven't already that is! If you have... I do not know what you can do. (see, I didn't even link up the site, because I don't want to make it easy!!!)

NO, there is NO virus... but just watch the video & you'll see why I feel I must do my part in letting my readers know about it!!!

P.S. If you're not from America... I still wouldn't chance going to that site either! See the video & you'll know what I mean.

Also, if you want... feel free to post this same type of blog... the more who blog about this... the faster we can spread the word about this!!! Thank you...

*Steps down off the soapbox.*

Now, back to your regularly scheduled... train ride!! ;o)

They must have been reading my mind!!!

I was just thinking the other day of giving Pepperidge Farm's a call to see what they decided about TimTams being sold here in USA............

Well, I woke up yesterday to an email saying: "TimTams are coming back!" I had to do a double take & then clicked open the email... YES.... THEY'RE COMING BACK TO AMERICA!!!

*Does a happy dance... until she sees*... only in the months of October to March. *sighs*

Oh well... *goes back to her happy dance* ... WOO HOO!!! I can't wait... I guess I'll be stock piling again when they finally arrive!

One good thing about it is that I don't have to go just to Target anymore... They'll be sold at our "favorite" stores!! Way to go Pepperidge Farms!!

Now... let's all start saving money so we can sell them out the 1st day they arrive at your store!!! I know I'll be making a call to my local grocer & asking them to give me a call when they arrive!! *giggles*

By the way... I still have 3 and a half packages left from my last batch I bought before the end of the trial (I think it was March.) So, I'm proud of myself getting them to last this long... Now IF only they can last until October! that's about 7 weeks away.... I need a date to shoot for... Hmmm...

Well, since I don't have a date just yet... I can go to the ILoveTimTams website and track the boat! (Seriously, they have that set up. It's cool, go check it out! Even if you're not a TimTam fanatic! ... or already have an endless supply to them because you live in Australia!! **giggles & points to her Kitty sis**!!) :o)

Oh... they DO have a date... 67 days until the return of TimTams!!

oh, btw... I made it to the 2nd round too! Will explain later if anyone is interested.

He has a SECOND interview!! WOOT! *everything crossed*

Saturday, August 8, 2009

What... we can't afford to send them any??

Come on!!! I can't believe this made the news! It should have been avoided before it was NEWS!!! GEESH! Am I the only one that thinks this could have been averted??

See what I'm talking about, by clicking HERE!!!

Quick TOTs...

1. It's still Thursday, right? (Some Kitty sis of mine had me a little confused. *winks & giggles*.)

2. Just had to tease her about that!!!
(Side note: New readers... TOTs is Thoughts on Thursday.)


3. Do you enjoy word games? Well then check out the group I set up over a year ago. It's been going really good. & We're in a Special Round for a bit. The "new season" will be starting in September.

4. Yeah, the link in #3 is attached to the words: "word games". Sneaky, aren't I? *winks*

5. Oh, one last though on TLW (that's the abbreviation for the group)... This special round is basically word association. Normally we just change one letter at a time to come up with a new word. The rules are a little out dated, if you read them... but it will be updated before the new seasons.

6. Ok, I said these were QUICK TOTs... but you know me... once a rambler... always a RAMBLER!! *giggles*

7. I am NOT looking forward to this weekend... it's supposed to reach the 90
°F's (34°C)... we've had such a pleasant summer so far! At least it doesn't look like it will last.

8. I wish I could update you on job situation for Hubby, but there's nothing yet.

9. Supposed to have my hearing with Social Security soon... but still waiting on the call to get it scheduled. *taps foot*

10. Have doctor's appointment on Monday to go over all the forms that a lawyer sent me to fill out so he (the lawyer) can represent me correctly at the hearing.

11. Nope, I don't have to pay the lawyer, unless SSI approves me. (Then it's a percentage of back amount owed. So nothing out of pocket.) *whew*

12. Even dozen, will I stop now? Nah... one more thought for a baker's dozen! :o)

13. My sleeping is still screwy. It's been back & forth & it's driving me bonkerzzz!! o.O (This is a main reason why there hasn't been many rides on The Rambling Train of late.)

That's all! *waves & poofs*
