This Week's Fussy Awards-

Fussy's First Award Goes to Cre8buzz-

How can Fussy even say enough good things about her beloved Cre8buzz? For the last 6 months Fussy has been stalking, lurking, obsessed with, enjoying regularly some of the best blogs on the Momosphere. Viola, the fabulous women behind the blogs have been revealed and, *gasp*, we are 'friends'.Click_heels_2  My ego, self-esteem, week has been so fun getting to know so many fabulous Mommies. I have found blogs that I can't believe I haven't read. SO FUN. You can find out who all the much better bloggers, Fussy's friends are here.

Out of a possible FOUR FUSSY'S.........Cre8buzz_logo

Cre8buzz gets all four. They RAWK!

Sure, the house is a wreck and home cooked meals are things of the past. Fussy's family attributes this to first trimester preggy issues. ~muah ha ha. Fussy rubs her hands together~

This week, Fussy's goal is to limit her Cre8buzz time. This will ensure she not become a shell of a woman, hunkered down over the laptop, saying, "I just need a minute to send this VERY IMPORTANT EMAIL!"

Fussy's Second Award Goes to Bibleman-

Sure, you have seen it and chuckled at the Christian Bookstore. It has super cheezy caped hero. Later, it was discovered that Bibleman is Willie Ames. Remember Charles in Charge? Charles_in_charge Charles' goofy best friend.....yeah, him.

The Easter Bunny brought Fussy's son, Enforcer, a DVD this year. "Breaking the Bonds of Disobedience" Gee, why was that one chosen? Hmmm....  The Enforcer (6) loves Star Wars, has all 6 memorized, and Fussy feared he would recognize the superior cheese factor of Bibleman.

Enforcer LOVES Bibleman. He quotes scripture now and TRIES to use Bibleman as a reference for how to behave. Fussy thinks that Bibleman has helped him not to be so feared in the 'hood. (He was known for having a bit of a temper!)

Enforcer can now be heard leading his little six year old friends in a gleeful "BIBLEMAN" chant. Every weekend he says, "Mom, can I watch Revenge of the Sith and Curing the Toxic Tonic of Disrespect?" Who Knew.

(Don't be hatin' on Fussy for letting him watch Episode 3. Yes, it's PG-13. Fussy knows. Blame Mr. Smartypants.)

Goofy? Yes.  Worth it? Absolutely.

Bibleman receives...........Bibleman 

Three Fussys out of four.

One Fussy was lost due to extreme cheeze factor.

Fussy Answers Your Questions......

Rachel in Ohio, asked..."Fussy, Why no Bloroll or links?"

Fussy said, "Laziness. Irresponsibility  I would, absolutely, leave some fabulous women off my lists. Many of the Friends of Fussy can be seen on my Nearcircle widgit and Mybloglog widgit. I am too irresponsible to keep up a current list, and I don't want to hurt feelings. I can't be leavin' out any of my peeps."

Linda in Oregon, asked..."Mrs. Fussypants, Why do you give people instructions on ruining their lives?....blabb, blabb, blabb..... Considering you portray yourself as a Christian, your behavior is shameful."

Fussy said, "Uh, I think this email was a joke. I think I'm getting a headache."

Helpin' ya' raise your Little Monkeys-

Things Schools are not teaching your kids, but they should. Things your Monkeys need to know to navigate successfully in the world.

Free kiddie business cards for playdates.

My Homeschooling Hero, Melissa, inspired me to use Math-U-See with the Monkeys. I CAN NOT say enough good things about it. Homeschool or Traditional Schoolers need this. If your little Monkeys have any confusion with Math...give it a try.  She also inspired me to start letting the Monkey's paint with watercolors. What a great time we all have. I carefully taught them about caring for the gnome's beard. ~~~Thanks to her also for letting my silly blog clog up her Nearcircle widgit! :)~~~

Fussy's Favorite Inspirational Postings of the Week-

Ann at Holy Experience discusses expectations. Fussy starts everyday reading Ann. Ann reminds Fussy that she is a worm of what is truly important in life.

My friend, Lori's posting which reminded me that we do not understand His ways, and we can take comfort in our insignificance.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Health News of the Week-

If your Homies are fat, you will be, too. Bummer.

Gretchen discusses Sleep & Health in a totally non-boring way with great links. She, like Fussy, gets too sleepy to put herself to bed. Evil Inertia.

Big_baby_2 Fussy will see this baby in her nightmares during this pregnancy.

Have a fabulous week, my Fabulous Friends of Fussy!

Five Easy Ways to Become One of Life's Losers!

Five Easy Ways to Become one of Life's Losers

  1. Live by the philosophy that life just happens to you. Don't have a goal or a plan. Visualizing who and where you want to be in the future- 6 months, 1 years, 5 years, that's ridiculous. Never try to steer your life toward a goal. Just complain when you never go anywhere.
  2. Pay no attention to your health. Get wildly overweight and depressed. Tell yourself that it is in your gene's and you can't help it. "It is just the way I am." Because of the obesity, your health will deteriorate. Enjoy your new battles with Diabetes, Heart Disease, High Cholesterol, and Depression. When your medical care is too expensive, sue a large fast food chain. Go with the premise that your obesity was caused by their yummy food. Remember, life just happens to you, you had no control.
  3. Unconsciously repeat all the negative behaviors from your parents. Did your dad drink too much and yell at the neighbors? Go ahead plan that BBQ. Was mom a control freak? Tell yourself that you aren't controlling, you just like to have things "just right." Don't forget to lay on the guilt when your kids start to pull away...."After all I do for you....."
  4. Develop a sense of intellectual superiority. Hone that feeling of contempt for anything held in high regard by 'the masses'. Become mildly cynical about life and other people. Everyone in your forums will think you witty and brilliant. In real life, people will avoid you like the plague.
  5. Decide that religion is for the uneducated. Subscribe to the belief that the more educated the person, then the less that person will believe in God. Judge Christianity by the people who annoy you most, not by Christ himself. Decide you can develop your own personal moral code.

After following these easy steps you, too, can be on your way to a life of misery.Cheers!

The big Bribe..Jewels for Technorati.

In the most desperate thing I've done to date  the spirit of fun, I am happy to announce this month's jewelry giveaway. I made this beautiful turquoise and silver necklace and earring set.

I love to give pieces I handmake to my friends, and I'm thrilled to start a monthly jewelry give-away for all my new blog-a-licious friends.

Jewelry_october2006_033

Since I moved my blog, I lost my pitiful lovely rating. I miss it. This blog is lonely with no fans.

Fussypants needs some Technorati love.

How do I enter your little farce contest?

Simply click on the "Favorite Me" Technorati button on my sidebar.

After you have Fav'd-me, just tell me in the comment section of this post! Easy!

How will I decide who wins?

October 1st- I will look at all the entries in order.

Partyboy will pick a number between 1 and X (X being the total # of entries) and whoever favorited me in that order will win. I'll try to post Partyboy's choice on youtube. (Note to self...learn to put video on Youtube!)

Is this a silly gimmick just for rank?

Yes, Fussy needs her some Technorati Love!

Hey, we all love free stuff, am I right? :)
