I'm a Farmer. He's a runner. You're a winner. There's more.....

For those of you that have been kind enough to friend me on facebook, then you might know what I'm talking about....
Yes, that's it. FARMVILLE.  I farm online because I am as close to being a real farmer as I am to becoming a man. I am totally addicted. I find myself "farming" at all hours of the day and night. I have even set my phone to remind me to harvest my crops. Well, what do you expect? They WILL wilt if I don't harvest them in time. DUH! Most of the people on my friends list are farmers too, and it's great when they "find" some sad animal on their farm that I can adopt. I seriously get excited and rush to adopt hoping that someone else hasn't already given the animal a home. This month, people are finding Turkeys, and I'm hoping that we get reindeer next month. I even have my daughter addicted to the game. The first thing she wants to do when she wakes up is watch mommy farm. Where's the 12 step meetings when I need them?

Now I know that there are certain people out there that despise Farmville. All I can say is, if you can't beat 'em you should join 'em. You never know, you may become addicted too!

Andrew will be coming home today for the first time since his escapade and I have yet to figure out exactly what I am going to do or say about the situation. He left our house on Thursday night, and ended up at school on Friday. Thankfully his friends were kind enough to message me as soon as they saw that he was at school. I knew that if he came directly home from school on Friday that it would turn into another argument because I was still angry and there was a possibility of him taking off again. I had been in contact with one of his friends father's who Andrew has deep respect for, and when he volunteered to pick Andrew up and let him stay the weekend at his house I immediately said yes. I figured that this would give us all time to cool down and hopefully provide Andrew with an opportunity to talk to an adult that is not a part of the situation. We will see how this one turns out.....

I have WINNERS!

Randomness;

Don't know if you noticed, but I gave my blog a Thanksgiving facelift. I kinda like it.

I have updated my blogroll and also added a section called the players. You can find both of these at the top of my blog. Please check them out :)  I have been horrible about checking blogs lately, but I have cleared my reader and am starting fresh. So, be on the lookout for me in your comments section. I won't mind at all if you comment on my posts either.

I will be cooking my first Christmas dinner for the entire family this year. If you have any tips/suggestions or recipes to share, please send them over!
