My kitchen is a mess
I left my planner at work and I feel very scattered
I folded 6421686421 loads of laundry and I am still not done
I like this phone blogging:-)

An Update
Sorry, sorry! I have been reading all of my blogs but I have been so tired lately I haven't had the energy to update my own blog.
The Man is still looking for a job however K-Pooh just gave him a lead so we, of course, jumped on it. Please cross your fingers, toes and send up some serious prayers please. I do appreciate it and so does The Man.
I just got Consent on a competing party adoption and it made my day! The state worker assigned to the case was putting up numerous road blocks because she wanted the foster parent of the siblings to adopt the baby even though the older siblings are all sexually acting out on each other and the two younger brothers refuse to speak to the older brother because he scares them. The oldest sibling is 12 and the youngest is 2. Yeah good idea to place a non mobile baby with significant developmental delays in that home. OY!
The Mommakins retired on July 1. Her health is absolute rubbish and I terrified when she doesn't answer a text within an hour of me sending it. I am constantly in contact with her doctors to arrange the appointments and tests and what have you. The Man is the one that has to take her to the majority of her appointments since he is not working yet so at least that is helpful. It will be a struggle to schedule her appointments when he does get a job because he won't be able to take any time off but we will manage something when that time comes. She can at least take her short bus to two of her doctors. She hates it but if she can get there I can pick her up after work.
So two weeks ago I met The Man and Mommakins at the doctor. I placed my planner, also known as MY LIFE thank you very much, in the pocket of the wheelchair. That is where I left the darn thing! I didn't even realize it until Oatmeally called me on Saturday asking me a question. I panicked!!! I called the hospital and there was nothing in the lost and found and the medical building was closed until 7:00 am Monday morning. Me and my chubby bum was at the medical building at 7:03 on Monday morning. It wasn't in the medical building so I walked over to the hospital and as I approached the information desk a beam of sunshine hit my beautiful planner. It was a glorious sight and as I reached the desk a choir of angels started to sing!!! It was kind of funny because I have my business card and my name plastered all over the planner and no one thought to open it and call one of my numerous numbers. Maybe they would have if I hadn't claimed it so fast. Anyhoo my baby is back where she belongs and I know where I am supposed to be:-)
Did I ever tell you that my planner is color coded? It is and I am not ashamed to admit it!! I would take a picture but I haven't figure out how to alter photos yet and I have it coded by clients too.
My system? Why yes I will share it with you:-)
Pink is personal
Orange is court
Green is home visits
Blue is meetings
Yellow is my second job
I have an alien nation setting up camp on my nose and being the goofball that I am I had The Man take a picture of it and I sent it to BunnyButt. You need friends that you can do that to and she is looking forward to performing a minor operation on Saturday when I see her to celebrate Oatmeally's birthday.
This no job thing is getting on The Man's nerves so I have been praying very hard that he finds something soonest. Lately I swear I have been hearing "Around the corner". So me being me I feel that this could mean one of three things:
1. I am experiencing positive symptoms of schizophrenia
2. G-d is telling me chill out and just trust Him
3. The Man is getting a job at Dairy Dan's
I think that is it for today my loves:-)
Hugs:-)
By the way: CONGRATULATIONS TO MS. MINDLESS!!! She got married last Saturday and I can't wait to see the wedding pictures:-)

Odd things
Odd ramblings:
--I live in Michigan. I have only lived in Michigan and the only person I know who lives in/around New York is The Cousin. So why do I read the wedding announcements in the NY Times every week? I even tear up when the back story is good.
Why you sometimes should forget you're a social worker when you are in Church:
--So on New Years Eve we were in Church. The priest was talking about Joseph being Jesus' foster father during the homily. I leaned over to The Man and said actually he was more like his adoptive father because he gave Jesus his last name and legally foster parents can not change a foster child's name. Also I was thinking to myself he was married to Mary so Jesus was not removed from a birth parent's care due to neglect or abuse so really Joseph was his adoptive parent.
-- We sang "What child is this" I barely caught myself before I sang "Whose child is this"
Yet another reason why The Duchess and The Man are big saps:
-- We now have 4 FOUR cats. Why? My friend got pregnant and her husband made her get rid of the cats so we took all three of them. Our little house is now home to:
The Man
Duchess
Osiris (The Man's big crabby cat)
Loki ( MY dog who is adorable in every way)
Thea (small cat big attitude)
Lucina (white cat with black spots)
Skif (male tiger striped cat, we think, since he walked in the house and promptly disappeared)
Why the odd names? We tried to name the cats after gods of different mythologies. Osiris is the Egyptian god of the dead. Loki is the Norse god of mischief. Thea is the Greek Titan goddess of heavenly light. Lucina is the Roman goddess of childbirth. We couldn't find a good god name for Skif so he is named after a character in the Mercedes Lackey Valdemar series of books. He is a Herald who is a bit mischievous.

Someone hand me a soapbox please.
Ok here I go.
VOTE PEOPLE!! I realize this is a bit late but do you realize what how huge the right to vote is? The majority of my readers are women, excluding the Ohio Boys and my father in law who doesn't actually read it but listens to mother in law read it to him sometimes, and in some nasty parts of this world we do not have the right to vote.
In some parts of the world:
We are considered property
Its against the law to educate a woman
Its against the law to show your face in public
We can't hold jobs
We are given up for adoption because its better to have sons
We are not "allowed"" to have an opinion that differs from our husbands.
I am a minority
I am a woman
I have a college degree
I have opinions different from my husband
I practice my faith freely
On my way to Church I pass many churches of different faiths and we are all allowed to believe as we see fit.
I have friends that are male, female. Catholic, Protestant, Jewish, White, Black and Hispanic
I married the man that I love with all of my heart and who my parents adore. If they didn't, I would have still married him because I can make my own choices.
I take these blessings as a right because I am American.
So yes this country is not perfect. We have our problems. But at the end of the day where else would you rather live?
So VOTE!!!! BE HEARD!! BE COUNTED!!

Hello!
We went to oHIo this weekend for The Man's best friends Halloween party....did you follow that?? Anyhoo it was a great party. It was a lot smaller than previous years but it was a good mix of people.
Work is getting better. I turned in four reports today. GO DUCHESS!! Tomorrow I have to go on a home visit. ARGH!
The Man is on a business trip, he left this morning and he will be back tomorrow night. I miss him. Sad I know but I hate sleeping alone now.
So I am definitely going to get a new work bag from VB if they still have it in stock. VB is retiring my favorite pattern Pink Elephants and I want the Bowler bag and the top zip tote. So that is my mission for this weekend.
I won a "Play it Forward" from BFF's. If I was cool enough I could link it but we all know I am lacking in the cool bloggy arena but she is on my blog roll.....LOOK TO YOUR RIGHT LOVELY READERS----->
I LOVE my CD and thank you very very much:-D
So to keep this going on and on I will send the third person to leave a comment a little something-something. You do have to have a blog to win because you will have to do this on your blog:-)
If I find that I only have one blog reader then that person will win it.

Allergies
Did I ever share that I am allergic to grass? Well I am. When The Man cuts the grass he usually makes sure that I will be out of the house, yeah its that bad.
So today its nice and chilly so I turned off the A/C and opened the windows. I was enjoying the breeze when my yahoo neighbors decided to cut their grass. I have the mother of all headaches and my mood is not pretty.
Why can't I live in a neighborhood where no one cares about their lawn??
GRAD SCHOOL NEWS: My favorite professor is going to ask the Dean if I can reapply for next fall. If I can then we are good. If I can't then counseling at WSU may be the ticket.
Still have not told my dad and I am freaking out by the fact that I have to tell him.
OY

Wow I need a life
Today I pulled weeds.
I got a warm fuzzy when The Man noticed that I pulled weeds.
I also worked on the office which is FINALLY THANK YOU BALD HEADED BABY JESUS starting to look good.
I got a bigger warm fuzzy when The Man noticed that the office is looking good.
Why am I getting excited that The Man notices when I do something in the house? It bugs me that I feel like I need his validation for my work in the house. I know I need it because I am not working full time and while the life of eating bon-bons may sound appealing in reality I don't eat bon-bons and I like feeling like I am contributing to our family.
I NEED to graduate and get a full time job. NOW!!

So I have a plan in case this therapist gig doesn't work out.
The Man and I watched the marathon of "Ice Ro@d Truckers" on Sunday.
I now think I could be an ice road trucker. Really you just take it slow only 25-30 klicks and don't brake suddenly.
If that doesn't work out I could be one of the people who dismantle the oil finding accessories when you have to take down a site.
See what you can learn folding clothes on quiet Sunday afternoon?
The Man thinks I am silly but hey no expressways or left turns?? Sign me up!

Tidbits
Why do I make it a point to feed my Facebook dog everyday? Seriously people, I feel guilty if I don't have time.
I am still revising a paper for a class that ended in April.
I am bitter about it too.
I have a new cute picture of SmartGirl that will be posted soon.
Funny story:
I was testing a 9 year old boy who may be developmentally delayed, possibly autistic. Anyway one of the questions is "If ,Insert Random Girl Name, has 4 pennies and she spends one how many does she have left? The child responds: "What did she buy for a penny?" The trained professional: "Well its not important what she bought we just need to know how much money she had left after she bought it" The child: "Well I want to know what she could buy with a penny" The trained professional: "....."
He called me Miss Lady during the testing and asked if my supervisor was "My boss lady".

Washers, bouncing beds, calicos and character letters
Its been a week and its only Wednesday Oy my head. So our washer is fixed and it only took me screaming at the poor lady at Sears to express just how completely unhappy I am that my washer has been broken for three flipping weeks. That my friends was not a happy phone call and I am sure that supervisor regreted taking my call but for the love of all that is holy and good DO NOT put me on hold for 20 minutes after I told you not to because that does not make me happy. I actually told The Man to gather the money together for bail because if it didn't get fixed today I was hurting someone.
Laverne had a bit of a horrible week. Ya know she is my G-d daughter and its a perfect fit. She was behaving like a normal 5 year old silly girl and she experienced a freak accident. It snowballed from there and now she is home safe and sound surrounded by her American Girl dolls and a grandma who thinks she is perfect and will grant every wish in a healthy non-fattening way. But back to why its perfect she is my G-d daughter the accident was so freaky and of course everyone thought that she was fine and she was in the end but leave it to us to take the ball and just run with it. We don't get papercuts we get GIANT bloody gashes. We don't have colds we have the PLAGUE. E-COLI you say? Sign us up for a heaping helping. Oy that poor kid.
Allie cat has her check up on Friday and she does sound better but trying to give a cat two pills after you cleaned her ears is not the faint hearted. Its kind of funny we will torture her and then she will go looking for the dog to hit him on his pin head. If he is outside she will sit on the step and hit him when he comes inside.
My internship. Oy the internship. I have a list of documentation that I have to turn in before I can start and its crazy. The funniest thing is getting my physical form from my doctor. The story begins last week. I called the doctor at 9:00ish am on Wednesday because I had a sinus infection. I have suffered from them since I was 5 I can spot a Coach purse and a sinus infection at a 100 yards and I am right everytime so don't argue with me. Anyhoo I called early so they would have time to call it in and The Man would pick it up on his way home. This chick we will call Darlene because that is her name called me back at 11:00 and I repeated what I told the first lady and she said she would call in the Rx as soon as the doctor approved it. Alrighty then. So I called at 3:45 to see if it was called in so I could tell The Man to pick it up on his way home from work. Darlene would not come to the phone because she had already spoken to me and now the Dr needed to approve it. Whatever. I called at 5 and the office was closed. So The Man and I went to Urgent Care where I was so sick I wasn't even able to tell the lady my phone number. I got my darn anitbiotic and a nasal spray and we came home. The next day Darlene calls around 11 to tell me that the Dr would be happy to call in the Rx I told her I already went to Urgent Care and thanks so much for her prompt assistance. She told me she had called me back and I said yes only to listen to me repeat what I told the first lady. She said yes but I did call you back. I think she wanted a cookie for calling me back but oh well. Well the Dr called me later that day but I was asleep so I didn't answer and when I called back Darlene came to the phone and really why waste oxygen talking to her? Soo on to the physical form. I dropped it off at the front desk and I asked the lady there to just fax it to the HR person at the internship place and she said yes and I left thinking it was all taken care of but wait Darlene got her mitts on it and it went down hill. She calls me and leaves a message on my cell. The form was filled out and she was going to fax it but wait she wasn't going to fax it until I told her I wanted it faxed. WTF?!? Now why would I leave the fax number if I didn't want it faxed? Ugh. So I called back on Tuesday and the lady who answered was the one I actually saw on Monday and she was just as confused about why it wasn't faxed since I had left the fax number. So we were both puzzled but apparently Darlene is the supervisor for the Department of Dumbass Moves at my Dr's office so it made sense to her. End of story it was faxed by the lady I saw on Monday. Work WITH me people not AGAINST me!
Umm classes started and its not going to be a pretty semester people.
I am working on getting AC and new furnance which is causing me to get creative since I am not working full time so it may be next year but Casa de German Last Name will have air by 2009 or my name isn't Duchess Hispanic Last Name-German Last Name!!

2. Bacon and Egg flavored combos?
3. Why did I have such an issue ordering off the Vera Bradley website?

Tidbits
I am super busy so I am going to take the lamebutt approach for an update.
** I am done with the Thank You cards for my side and The Man's side will be done by Friday if all goes well
** I felt myself getting sick on Thanksgiving and yep it got worse on Friday and Saturday I didn't even shower
** We had to buy a new washing machine on Sunday because ours done broke itself!! But don't worry that money tree we have in the backyard is thriving:-D
** We had a small party for the Smart Girl on Friday and I felt like poopey but I still had fun
** I was asked out on a date by a file clerk at Court. He is a bit mentally challenged and it was cute. However for more proof that I have a sick mind I had the thought that this may explain why we are always missing files at that court:-p
** Oy I still feel like poop and I have a doctor appointment tomorrow because I am experiencing frequent and unexpected gooshing bloody noses. Yes it makes me look sexy however I am running out of spot remover so what the heck I'll go to the doctor and maybe The Man will stop asking me if I called the her!!

Random Tidbits
The Man and I picked up my new car yesterday. Its new to me at least and it works!! I had a NEON and now I have a VUE. I am quite excited however now I need to actually pay attention to my speed. In my Neon the speed telling device was broken so I just figured if I passed two cars or my car was shaking too badly I was going too fast:-D Now my speed telling device works and I have a faster engine and oh my Lord my car goes fast.
The Scrapbook Girl and I went to a purse party with a chickadee from work. Another chickee from work was supposed to meet us however she got stuck at work so we shopped without her even though it was her aunt that was the hostess of the party. Anyhoo I got a Boach wallet and a Ducky and Burke purse. The Boach wallet cracks me up, the tissue paper inside the checkbook cover had "fine leatherwahe" since 1941 printed on it!!!
I am still organizing my wedding pictures and working on the thank-you cards. Oy
More later if I remember:-D

My milkshake brings all the boys to the yard....
And their like
It's better than yours,
Damn right it's better than yours,
I can teach you,
But I have to charge
Yeah that song ran through my head the entire time I was getting fitted for my wedding BRA. I use capital letters because this woman grabbed my boobies in the middle of the store and then told me that I wear a DOUBLE D. Ummm holy boobies batman!!
I told The Man that apparently I have been wearing the wrong size bra and the sisters are bigger than I thought. His response? Umm thats good...I think...isn't it? The Man has a well developed sense of self preservation. Yeah so I am paying almost 40 bucks for a plain white bra but Lord the sisters are comfortable in it so its moolah well spent. My mommakins is paying for the torture thingee I am wearing underneath the wedding dress but I am buying the plain white bra with no cute designs or anything. Oy!
I am freaking about school and someone has taken hours out of my day and I want them back! I am done with school next week so no posts until then duckies
Love you all

Homeless
Allo
I live with my mom in an apartment. Its a nice two bedroom with a walk in closet apartment and sometimes we even have hot water in the morning. Yeah wondering why I am mentioning this? The lease expires in May. I am getting married in October. My mom wants to move into a one bedroom apartment and that makes sense. So where does that leave me? Well I have options
1. My mom doesn't sign a lease and we continue to live here on a month to month basis
2. My mom gets the one bedroom apartment that she wants and I sleep on the couch and move the majority of my stuff including furniture to The Man's house.
3. Move in with Oatmeally and buy a futon and move the majority of my stuff to The Man's house.
4. Live in my car
What is not an option is moving in with The Man. Now seriously I am not judging you if you live with your significant other so don't get mad. I just feel thats its not right for me or The Man. My parents, divorced as they are, have always taught me that you don't live with a man until he is as my dad put it "paying your credit card bill" which was Stinky code for married. The Man's parents are even more vocal than my parents on the subject and the Ohio Momma has sent me an article from one her Catholic sites stating all the reasons that living with your significant other is wrong. She also sent the same article to the Man because she is known for being subtle, it was around the time that The Man bought the house:-D My mom, on the other hand, is even more subtle telling me that ITS WRONG AND BY GOD SHE RAISED ME RIGHT. I typed in caps because she tends to type in caps for the hearing impaired:-D
Also my feeling is this: I am going to be 34 next month and I have never lived with a guy ever and I don' have any children and so far I am doing this life thing in the order that I feel it should be done in so why do things all wonky now?
With any of the options I still have to pack and move my life over to The Man's house and that thought makes me want to nap.
Also, Scrapbook Girl bought a new purse and its DESIGNER and its BIG. I am so damn proud of her:-D

Lazy Day
I am home today with bum problems. Oye the bum he is not happy. Yeah I think my bum is a man, odd eh?
Anyway I am having some cheese (yumm cheeeessee) and crackers. My mom and I bought the cheese from Target. Its not Target cheese its really name brand cheese. Why do I feel that my cheese has to be name brand? Anyway I am pondering the choice of cheese. My cheese is a special type of cheese. Its already sliced to fit perfectly on the cracker. I don't have to cut it or pull a chunk off the cheese brick. Nope its already pre-cut.
Yes, Viriginia, I am that lazy.
I am too busy or too lazy to cut my own cheese (HAHAHAHAHA, get it? CUT THE CHEESE?!) so I have to buy expensive precut cheese.
The Man is right.
I am too silly for words.
