I wish I had of known that earlier lol we have no money and absolutely no food.. And were fast running out of toilet paper =( oh well shit happens at least the dog, the mice and the fish have food. My mouse had babies thursday night. 6 of them. Coreys mouse seems a little over enthusiastic.. He was in with the babies trying to feed them when he's meant to be eating them.. I don't see why I'm surrounded with weird animals all the time.. Lol

Things will be better when you move in with your Mom. My daughter and her family lived with us after 9/11/01. They both lost their part-time jobs at the Airport. So They invaded me for about a year. The only good thing was our grand-daughter was with us all the time. That's how we got so close to her. We run out of stuff between paydays all the time! My husband thought I was throwing away money, then he went shopping with me. He was mad, he didn't realize how expensive everything was. lol I'm making him go shopping everytime so he keeps it real. lol Men really don't know what it takes to keep a household running. Things will work out for you, they have so far. Hope you and baby are having a good week-end. >^~.~^<

And to be perfectly honest I can't keep having one meal a day.. All we have left is pasta and pasta sauce.. I'm craving meat lol and mcdonalds sundaes..

A, no you don't. Can you give me the price of a gallon of milk? Cost of two ply Bounty paper towels? How much laundry soap for a large load of clothes? How many pair of Jeans can a regular washer wash, cleanly? No my friend to my vast dismay most guys don't know jack about the household, sorry. >^-.-^<

Hahaha!
I must admit, some men are ok with running a house.. Corey is a good housewife.. He washes cleans and cooks dinner and never once has he complained.. I do what I can to help but most of the time I just get in his way lol

You see you didn't read- a gallon of milk!!! 3.86 Another male short fall, you don't listen!!! I'll give you a break though, who helped, your Mom, Sister, or girlfriend? I'm going to stop cause I'm sounding grouchy. I love my son who's 23, and my ancient husband. But they have a hard time finding their way, lord knows I've tried. Wolf it was very distressing to hear of your food dilemma. Don't they have a food bank, or a church that'll help you out? Food from anywhere would be a blessing. Now I'm worried about you and baby. >^;.;^<

Lol Its alright stormcat, the baby and I will be fine.. The baby seems to be having fun moving around in there. Coreys mum has loaned us some money for groceries til we get paid on thursday. Which is unusually nice for her... Had a nice steak dinner last night! Yumm.. There are some charities that give out food but I'd never do that unless I was absolutely starving. I think it might be my stubborness or pride.. Dunno. Lol.

Glad you got some meat! Don't be ashamed of needing alittle help. I had to get some when I left the Ex. It was the only way I could feed the three little ones. I remind them how hard things can get. Well you get paid in about 24 hours, buy some more meat!!! Hug for you and baby. >^..^<

Thanks.. I'm definitely going to buy more meat lol
I won't take food from a charity unless I absolutely have to cos there are people out there that are in more need than I am I don't want to take it away from them.
When the baby comes I will be less hesitant about getting food from charities cos there is no way in hell I'd let my baby go without a meal.. But hopefully I'll never have to. Corey should be getting a job soon and hopefully I can find one too at least until the baby is born then I'll study a bit and when the baby hits 2 coreys gonna be a stay at home dad hehe
You know how my mouse had 6 babies? Well, we had a look at them yesterday and 3 of them have no tails! Lol they must have manx blood in them.. Random I know lol

Silly Wolf, those are Hamsters! haahaahaa Just pulling your leg! I'm not much of a rodent person. I really liked the Gerbils we used to have, one was 4 years old, he got gray around the face, couldn't hardly move before he died. His name was El Negro because he was all black. I had a Guinnea Pig too, he was pretty sweet, he didn't last to long though. We've had assorted Hamsters over the years. Pretty much any pet the kids wanted we got. Have a juicy steak and think of me! >^..^<

Haha will do! We now have heaps and heaps of steak..
I always wanted a gerbil.. I've had just about everything I could get my hands on.. Lol snakes, lizards, turtles, birds, mice, rats, guinea pigs, rabbits, dogs, cats, fish, ferrets etc etc miss every last one of them..
Well, it seems that my mouse is pregnant again... And the babies she has now have sprouted hair overnight.. Just enough to let us know what color they are going to be.
Hmm, its really cold tonight.. Ugh, I still gotta do dishes =(

You need a separate cage for those horny mice. Damn that's a quick pregnancy rate! You're going to be overrun pretty soon. Now I know why they are so populous in the wild. Tonight was one of the empty the litterbox nights:ugh:. I found the saddest kitten on the side of the road. He's fluffy now we gave him a flea bath, wormed him, I started him on Antibiotics, and Antibiotic eye ointment. I stopped and called him, he came right to me, his three legged sibling ran away. I guess he figured this is my only chance to live, I'd better take it. He hasn't stopped eating since he got here! I haven't named him yet. Take care. >^-.-^<

Awww.. Poor little thing! He's lucky you got to him before someone who would have hurt him.. What colour? Hehe I know its unorigional but what about Lucky for a name? It seems appropriate lol
Well, I would seperate the mice but the baby fish are in our only other tank.. Lol so we've been trying to find a pet shop that will accept fish with no luck. I dunno what to do with them. I can't keep them.
