Fridays Fragments, Positively Positive & GNO

Friday Fragments?

Its a wonderful Friday here in Mass and though we are all sick with the Swine Flu, I am going to attempt a Friday Fragments !! I cheated a bit and posted a quick video that fits right in with a little fragment of MY life here in the Crazy House.





Along with that...
1.) Why is it that canned soup really sucks? I make a mean homemade chicken soup and a pretty good beef stew BUT while sick this week I totally did not feel like cooking. I enlisted the help of Campbells and Progresso but darn if it just wasnt as good as my own!

2.) My teen has a mountain of laundry growing in her room . Its pretty bad when even she cant tell what is clean and whats dirty. I tried to cut her a little slack this week as she has been sick since last Thursday but come this morning I about freaked out on her... really... it was getting to be a bit much! I think I heard something making noise under all that stuff...

3.) My poor son... he is the only one who was vaccinated and isnt sick. He was trying to take care of us but having a 7 yr old using the stove really isnt a good idea so this morning he attempted to make me a bagel ( which I couldnt even eat because I was so sick) but hey, its the thought that counts, right?

4.) I swear even my dogs are acting weird. They must know we are all sick because they keep sniffing us ( more than usual) and pacing around the house... utterly annoying!

5.) Some bloggers just arent very nice! I am refusing to go into detail here but really... I have spent a lot of time on Twitter and Facebook while sick this week and man oh man... some bloggers are relentless and mean! Thats just not cool here in Our Crazy House!!

That leads me into the next segment in my Fridays Post.... ( cuz ya know I cant do just ONE Meme on Fridays!!( especially since I am home sick!!)

Toni over at A Daily Dose of Toni has created a new Meme... Positively Positive!! You link up, blog or vlog your post. The only real rule here... it has to be something Positive! Something great that has happened to you this week, or a blogger you LOVE and want to tell everyone else about or some other GREAT piece of news you can share so those that arent as happy this week can feel better! ya know, spread the positive energy!!




And Dont forget to join us at Ann's for GNO tonight!!! Super fun!! I am excited to see where the Heart Shaped Rock is this week!!

LOVE the dog licking your hubby! So funny!
hope he feels better soon.
Hmmm. Glad I haven't been on the negative this week. I too try and stay pretty positive over here. I am TOTALLY trying that twisted frosty with M&M's this weekend. MMM! Sounds wonderful. Almost as good as a choc chip cookie dough blizzard! I think Mr. Linky accepted my link. I'll try back later.

Lolly from Better in Bulk is also a good blogger! I like her.

Speaking from the Crib is also funny, she can use some coarse language at times but she is hilarious...Not bashing at all.

And also Chief...hilarious! I love her! so funny.

And lastly the Mom nerd! Her birthday is coming up too. She designed my blog...she is SOOO talented. I have her button on my blog.

Hope everyone starts to feel better soon.:)

With the laundry situation, you've got to pop over to my blog for a great idea. Had the same problem with my son and we cleared it right up! Check my post "Cruel and Unusual Punishment".

Wonderful VLOG.
Some bloggers don't always get it.
Have a great VGNO!

Confessions Of A Working Mom said...

Pets are the best for sure. They really know how to love you.. I hope all of you feel better soon.

Tenakim said...

dude- sucks you're sick! I agree with you vaccinating your son because of his asthma- I would have,too.
I'm sooo with you on canned soup- what's with that? I ate it as a kid and don't remember it tasting like ass, but it does. I make LOTS of soup.
Our dog licks my husband's head like that, too- I think he likes the taste of his sweat.
Awesome Vlog!

Gladys said...

I hope you feel better soon. I would send you some chicken soup via the internet but it totally messes up your hard drive. Happy VGNO

Eve said...

Oh, I'm so sad... my internet connection just isn't running fast enough to load your videos. And I was so intrigued by the snippet of the man in the bathtub too! ;)

I hope you are all feeling better soon!! I never get a flu shot, but I never get the flu either. It is good to see (by your son's experience) that it's working!

Mean bloggers? That's terrible! I've always (so far) found the blogging world to be almost bizarrely kind, polite and inspirational. Did you stumble across a mean group, or did they come to you? To bad either way!

Just A Mom (Call me JAM for short) said...

Haha! Clancy cracks me up!

Sorry to hear that you all all have the swine flu! My son had it a few weeks ago and it was not pretty... Glad to hear that the vaccine works though!

Mean bloggers? Just stay away from them. I just started twittering. Not really sure what I'm doing though. I'm going to go find you to follow...

Hope everyone is feeling better soon!
Happy GNO.

Stacy (the Random Cool Chick) said...

Oh you poor thing! Sorry your whole family (except the 7 yr old) have been sick...not fun!! Glad you're starting to feel better! :)

Princess Nagger is getting the H1N1 flu shot through her school - there have been a few confirmed cases so the school offered to vaccinate all the kids for free with parental permission...I signed the permission slip right away. :)

Loved your vlog and agree with you wholeheartedly! :) I really need to get a flip or something so I can join in the fun... ;)

Happy FF! :)

Candy said...

I hope everyone gets well soon. I agree 7 year olds and stoves are not a good mix.

I just say, "No, no, no!" to mean bloggers.

Joey said...

Oh man, I love the Progresso soups. Must be a combo of being too lazy to make it myself and not being very particular about my soup! Feel better soon!

Melissa B. said...

Only positive vibes emanating from my bloggy palace! Hope everyone in your house feels better soon. SITS sent me by, and I'm glad they did!

Wow, sounds like you guys have been through the ringer!

Here's sending you some positive healing energy!

Happy Belated VGNO!

Erin M. said...

I haven't been on Twitter much either lately for the same reasons...

Love the doggie video.

And hopefully soon everyone will be on the mend. Maybe if you had some real chicken soup....our local grocery store does a pretty decent job with their homemade soup, maybe you could try something like that?

Sounds like you guys have been through the ringer.

I'm sending you some positive healing vibes.

Happy Late VGNO!

Unknown Mami said...

I'm sorry no one could make you yummy soup while you were sick.

And I say boo to mean bloggers!

Mrs4444 said...

Congrats on making it to the couch last week :) I hope that today you are feeling much better. I'm very glad your son made it through without getting flu, too.

I think you should hang out with some of MY bloggy buddies, because I have never, ever come across any catty, bitchy bloggers or FBr's, although I'd like to know who gave Yaya a hard time, because I'd like to choke him/her! Grrr.
