~♥~ I WISH WEDNESDAY ~♥~


I wish....................................All terrorists were into fashion...it would make them so much easier to spot!




I wish.......................This wasn't how I've been feeling lately.

I wish.............................to see what she makes him wear at their wedding!


I wish...................................men got smarter with age.....but alas............



I wish.......................that today's society was smart enough not to need this sign.



I wish......................budget cuts weren't hitting our schools so hard.

I wish...................budget cuts weren't hitting the workplace as well.

I wish..........................people would think a little harder before they name their business.

I wish......................................the 70's would come back...dayum men were hot back then!

I wish......................truth in advertising wasn't quite so....honest.

I wish............................my daughter Lacey would quit working out. I used to be able to put some fear in her when she needed to behave...it's not so easy now that she knows she can kick my butt!

I wish..............................this didn't make me laugh because I can relate! (just kidding hubby)

I wish..........................that my new job was an interpreter. I don't even speak Japanese and I'm pretty sure I could do as good a job as this guy did!



I wish......................this hair style would come into fashion....I'm pretty sure I could rock it!


I wish..............................I was a senior citizen....they can get away with anything and still be cute!



I wish......................................to say....Amen.




I wish.................................the government wasn't running the auto industry.



I wish.....................................he was my Grandpa!




Thanks for joining me for another "I wish Wednesday". I wish I could get my blog mojo back so I could show up here more often.....does anyone know a cure?

Nikki, you're still alive?!? So glad you're back!
Thanks for the chuckles!

Pedaling said...

everyday i wait

today you delivered


your daughter...how does she do it?

don't know the cure for the blog mojo....wish i could stop...have anything for blog addiction?

chocolatecovereddaydreams.blogspot.com said...

Loved the guy in the witness protection program...what dedication to his job. He shows up with hopes that he isn't recognized!

Your daughter is phenomenal. If I come back in another life, I am definitely going to ask God to give me a body like hers.

Glad you're taking it day by day. You're still putting smiles on faces.

Scrappy Girl said...

Thank you for all the giggles...I was wondering when you would post again!

Michelle said...

Hey Welcome back!

I'm not sure how to hunt down a mojo, but if you find yours maybe you could find mine too!

Becky said...

I've been missing you!!! Dang your daughter is awesome!

Heather said...

I am fairly certain the answer to finding one's mojo is revealed among the brightly colored symbols of Bejeweled Blitz.......... ;)

Seeing an I Wish Wednesday post in my blog reader just made me SQUEEEE with joy!

Lacey is fearsomely awesome! Wow!!

Kristina P. said...

I definitely wished you posted more often!

Missy Wertz said...

Oh Nikki! I have missed reading these. So funny! hope that your mojo comes back soon!

Lacey is looking great! Wish I could hve the willpower to get my bodyfat down as low as hers..

Cecelia---Sis---Mom said...

Thank you for a huge, gigantic smile and the laughter. Glad to see you back.

Lacey is amazing, I had that willpower a few years back and was a gym rat..wish I could find my motivation again.

Salmagundi said...

It's always fun when you do post. Missing you! Sally

The Real Estate Talker said...

Yes, the cure for you, if you foget your blogging buddies, and don't post regularly so we can laugh at your wonderful funny posts, that we check everyday for a new post, and then NOTHING for weeks on end. Then you must submit to showing yourself in on of these funny pictures.
Just kidding, but really do we have to wait so long next time, I was having a blah, blah meltdown
seriously
Cheryl

Becky said...

Oh, how I have MISSED YOU!

I am so glad to see you are Back!!!

Love them all:)

Your daughter is AMAZING!!!!

Lynn Kellan said...

Earlier today, I was just thinking about how much I missed your funny posts...I'm delighted to see you back! Your sense of humor always brightens my day.

CB said...

NIKKI!!! When I saw the first picture I realized how much I've missed these wacky pictures from you!!

I hope life is treating you dandy!!

Ann On and On... said...

I am very certain when saying "I wish I never saw that photo of your daughter"... now I can't eat the cookie sitting in front of me. Seriously, there's ice cream in the freezer too. Time to dust off the Jane Fonda vhs tape.

tiburon said...

Ooo how I have missed you!

Sooooo good to see you back!

And your daughter is freaking RIPPED!
I am jealous!

Belle (from Life of a...) said...

I know how that bird feels. I was most definitely NOT the bluebird of happiness this morning.

tammy said...

I wish Nikki would blog more often.

Anonymous said...

Dang, I really missed these! They rock and so do you! LOL. Keep it up Nikki, you are a riot!! Sue

Lynette said...

OK - your girl is awesome - in a totally good way!

Laughed (and nearly choked) over the frogs!

Who doesn't wish they had those kind of grandparents?

Can't help with the blogger mojo - but when you do come out and blog it makes it all worth it!!

At least you actually "wished on Wed" right?

Isn't it cold up there yet - as soon as you have to start staying inside and can't pull weeds anymore - you'll get it back!

Anonymous said...

You're alive!! I snort-laughed during this one, so thanks! I'm losing my bloggy mojo, too. What are ya gonna do? It's not that important, and it's still fun when you do post. :)

Tracey said...

So glad you are back.....I am really in need of a Crumpet and Ozzie fix!!
:) Tracey

Welcome to the Garden of Egan said...

Well, it's great to see your post and I wasn't disappointed!

Coloradolady said...

This was so funny.....I laughed out loud..... Good to see you....take care!

onlymehere said...

I can't help you with the mojo bz my blog is just my life. I probably bore everyone to tears but that's me, lol! I still like coming to see you even if you're not the bluebird of happiness. There are times I'm not either. I tend to live life closer to tears right now.....three weeks from today and Trav leaves on his mission. I think I'm the only mom ever that got into such a low funk about it. Sigh....I really have to pull myself together.

Ash said...

Turn off the news. Honest to goodness - I've learned in my month-long blog hiatus that ignorance is bliss.

It'll be 2010 soon enough.

Miss you lady!!

And Lacey, Jeez Louise that chick is fierce with a capital FEAR!!!

roy/elisabeth dean said...

Hey Nikki!
Good to see you back in blogland, you made me laugh as usual!
Thank you for the sweet facebook message....I appreciate your prayers.
Have a great week~
♥,Lilly

Mimi Sue said...

Glad you're back, will take your funny self whenever you can. Love those hot guys from the 70's. Looks like they're from pimpville. Mimi

Laura said...

Miss you! Hug those cute boys for me - you know, the ones with fur!

Grand Pooba said...

Wine. That's the best cure I can suggest.

Ginger said...

I think your blog mojo was back with this post. Too funny!

Mom in High Heels said...

OMG! I wish Wednesday!!!!! I'm so glad you're back! I've been missing my mid-week giggle.

Anne Fannie said...

It's so good to see you back! I have missed Wednesdays!
Thanks for the giggles tonight.
Your daughter is unbelievable!
Hugs, Ann

Four Paws and Co said...

Good ones Nikki! That 1st guy was certainly stylin'! ☺

LadyFi said...

Hurray for this laugh! I really needed it... Keep on posting the funnies and maybe your mojo will come back!

Unknown said...

Hooray, you're back! At least for today... don't worry about your blog mojo, sometimes we all just need to step away and rethink what we're doing before we can go forward.

My favorites are the senior citizens!

Anonymous said...

Well you still got "it" Nikki! This was hilarious in usual Crumpet fashion!

LMBO!

Cynthia said...

The only cure is to just DO it.

I'm totally laughing at the frogs. I gotta show my hubs that one!

Michele said...

I just love your daughter...I wish I had the energy to work out...but, alas, I don't..lol!

I missed your funnies, but I can relate about the blog mojo...I haven't had it lately either...that is, until my little grandbaby got here!

Hugz,
Michele

Susie Q said...

She is baaaaack. About that mojo thing...if you find yours, see if mine is anywhere near by. FB is just easier and quicker and more fin at times. *sigh* But I do miss ya here and thank you for the chuckles!! I needed them today.
Love ya,
Sue

Lori said...

Where have you been? glad to see you are alive and kicking! I love your Wednesday poats! I've missed them!

Carma Sez said...

Happy to see you making an appearance! I need to get one of those I Hate Everybody shirts. My blog mojo has been flagging as well lately...Let me know if you discover the secret to regaining our blog gusto!

Kat said...

Yippee!!! Nikki's back to brighten our day! That first shot just hurts my eyes lol. And hey, I just my AARP card, does that mean I'm allowed to wear that cool grandma shirt?? So glad to browse through my reader and see a post from you! Kathy

wendy said...

YAY!!!! so fun to hear from you again. YOU. HAVE. BEEN. MISSED.

sorry you feel like you have been an unhappy little blue bird

Tootsie said...

Sandi @the WhistleStop Cafe said...

It was worth the wait!

Heather said...

Whoo Hoo you're back!

Now I have to leave and go cry after seeing your daughter! She is stunning!!

Justine said...

Well, it's about damn time, woman! OMG, that guy with the fluff of hair? It looks like a woman's bush sitting on his head!!!

I cracked the hell up at the sperm frogs. heeheeheeeeeee

Justine :o )

Simply Donna...... said...

Oh, I have so missed you. I always enjoy your post. You make me laugh. Hoping you get your blog mojo back really soon. I don't the answer, but understand. Hope knowing that so many of us miss you will help get you going.

The Kooky Queen--Rachel said...

I've missed you SOOOOOOOOOOOOO much!!! HAHAHAHA!! I want your daughter's body...just not willing to get it..hahah! Love it all!!! That was fuuuuuuuunny!!

The MomShell said...

Well it's about time!! Do you need some blogging tough love. Cuz I am peri-menopausal and seem to get cranky at the slightest provocation. Don't make me come up there. lol lol So glad to see you back again. I missed you!

Mammatalk said...

Kelly @ Much To Do With Nothing said...

I love the Ritalin one. That's my pet-peeve.
Take a break for the the holidays...it's worth it. That's my cure.
Kelly
PS Nice to see you. It's been a long time.

J. Baxter said...

I have missed your wishing! I just had to read through the last four Wish Wed. posts, just for laughs. Hopefully I'll get to Blogland a bit more often, and if I do, you know I'll stop by!

Fragrant Liar said...

Hey, wait! I think that WAS my grandpa. And my grandma too--she hates everyone, but she's still cute!

Fragrant Liar said...

P.S. Blog mojo is elusive. It eludes me several times a week these days, and I am struggling to keep up. Thing is, I LOVE blogging and love my bloggy friends, so that's what keeps me coming back.

Fragrant Liar said...

P.P.S. I want Lacey's back!

Shawn said...

Love these posts! You are almost as bad at blogging as I am lately---heh, heh....

Always glad to see you back!

Marielle said...

I wish you did not use the riatlin joke.

Nana said...

Great as usual. I couldn't believe it when I saw you made a post. Hope everything is going well w/ you.

Joanne said...

Your fantastic! This post was great.

Rainy Day Farm said...

Yeah! You're back! You are missed! I love the grandpa t-shirt. That fits my grandpa to a "t" (no pun intended). I am pretty sure he would have worn it too!
So glad you are back. Good luck with the bloggy blues. Those jerk commenters seemed to have taken all the fun out of you! Get better!

Picket said...

I wish (and hope) Wednesday is back to stay!
I have to say when I saw your sweet girl, my meno-paused in AWWWW! She is sooo amazing!
My DIL just ran her first marathon, after an intense year of training and a 30lb weight loss. I was overjoyed for her accomplishment.

Sweet holiday wishes.
Sara

Tardevil said...

You are so funny! Please tell your daughter to stop working out. It's just WRONG to look that good!

Deb said...

Hey NikkiCrumpet! What's happening girlfriend! I could go for a few men of the 70's too! LOL!!! I've often said that I'm going to throw myself a 70's party! I wish I could tell you how to get your blog mojo back but, I can't get mine back! LOL!!! I try a little, I get and idea and then it's so darn hard to take a picture these days.

Hey Nikki,

I miss laughing at your "Wish Wednesdays"! My blog mojo goes off and on for the past few months-so no worries, we'll still be here to read when you blog again!

Victoria said...

Sweetie, You just Have to keep blogging...you're the best part of my Wednesdays!

YOU NEED TO BLOG MORE....THIS IS THE FUNNEST THING I'VE SEEN ALL DAY! I'VE ADDED YOU TO MY LIST..BLOG! AND COME SAY HI :D

onlymehere said...

Nikki, are you okay? I'm starting to get worried about you. I miss you. Are the kids okay? I hope you have a very bright and good new year. Cindy

jeanne said...

Hello Nikki, I have your blog on my sidebar faves. I really miss you. Kathy has the right idea. Just post something short. A photo of your pups or your latest picture on the wall or something from Google is fun and lets us know you are ok. No one has to blog everyday. I like doing it but have slowed down a bit too.
Short and easy is a good thing.

Thinking of you today with wishes for a great 2010.
Hugs, Jeanne

ko said...

u crack me up!!! :) HAPPY NEW YEAR OLD FRIEND!!! AND YOUR DAUGHTER!! UHHHH JEALOUS!

onlymehere said...

Nikki,

Every time I'm on Bridget's blog I see this picture of the dude in the dress and turban and I wish you'd post so I didn't have to look at him anymore, lol! Seriously, I miss you though. I hope that life's treating you well. Just think, soon it will be warm enough and you'll be out hanging out at the pool with the boys (Ozzie and Crumpet). Stop by and let's talk! Cindy

Tulsi said...
