5 Question Friday
Hey y'all!
I feel a bit better today but, alas, there is no vlog here. I'm not feeling that much better! Maybe in a few days!
Let's all send a little "feel better" energy my way though because, man, we have got one busy weekend ahead of us. Keeping my fingers crossed that my week of SVU watchin', chaise loungin', gallons of water drinkin', trying to rest will pay off and I'll be tip top for the multitude of birthday parties ahead of us this weekend.

Yes, I'm still feeling a little crappy. I'm better but, not great. Thanks to all the well wishes!
The other day, I had quite a nice pick me up when Lori over at Lori's LOLz presented me with a really cool award.
Rules- 10 honest things about myself and give the award to 10 bloggers.
1. I'm addicted to Law and Order shows. SVU is my fave (partly because of Christopher Meloni). The truth is though, I have to limit my intake of these shows because they totally mess with my head. Seriously, I sta... Continue reading ...

I was looking back through some old posts and realized that I start almost every single post with "Hey y'all". I also realized that all of my vlogs start the same way.
But, I guess that's me. It's natural. So, I'll go with it.
Hey y'all!
Every Sunday, the super fly Keely over at MannLand5 hosts a kickin' meme called "Getting to Know You".
I mentioned to Keely that I might vlog it this weekend.

Hey y'all!
Everyone excited about the weekend?
I'm really hoping that the weather this weekend is exactly like it is right now. Ohmygosh, it's gorgeous outside! I just love these pre-Summer Texas days! We are sooooo heading outside as soon as I post this!
If you don't know about 5 Question Friday, be sure to head over to Mama M's blog and play along! Wanna answer in the comments? Have at it! If you did a 5QF post, leave me the link! I love blog hopping!!
We really have about a week of "Spring" here before it starts turning into Summer. It's not that hot just yet and I'm totally loving it. Hot enough for shorts and tanks but, not so hot that your skin feels like it's melting...yet.
But, definitely hot enough to yell "Close that door!" anytime someone opens it.
Let me just say that I never knew people could be so inept at closing doors. It's like every s... Continue reading ...
As predicted, the rain has washed up my weekend. (haha, isn't that punny?)
Never fear though. I got some cleaning done and when I needed something to keep me from cleaning, I got some sewing done! Snappy now has three new dresses hanging in her closet! >wish I did<
She's ecstatic. I just adore my girly girl! I do this all the time. I take shirts that might be getting a little short or worn and just add the fabric to the bottom to make a dress. She loves dresses! I really like using ... Continue reading ...

Blog Hops
The streamers are falling down.
The chip bowls are empty.
Someone used all the toilet paper.
We're out of ice.
It was a great party though!
Thanks to 5 Minutes for Mom! The were the ultimate hostesses for the Ultimate Blog Party! I had a blast browsing through new blogs and making some new bloggy friends!

Happy Friday!
I have lackluster plans for the weekend ahead but, the night is still young and I could easily overcome my procrastination and make a nice little list of things I won't get done! We shall see!
How about a little 5 Question Friday action?
I'm all over it.
If you stopped by from the Ultimate Blog Party, welcome! My Blog Party post is HERE.
If you're here for the 5 Minutes For Mom Ultimate Blog Party, welcome! My party post is HERE.
You know, when Friends and Seinfeld days ended, I wasn't sure there would ever be shows that were that funny. Does anyone watch Modern Family or Cougar Town? I seriously laugh out loud every single time we watch those shows! True story.
Renting from Blockbuster this past weekend was a huge lapse in rational thinking. True story.
My sunburn from all the outdoor painting last weekend is starting to peel.... Continue reading ...

Well, as usual, I'm a day late and a dollar short but, I'm finally getting around to joining the huge Blog Party over at Five Minutes for Mom!
If you've stumbled on this post from the 5 Minutes for Mom site, Welcome! I'm so glad you're here! If you're here because you're a regular reader, Woot! I'm glad you're back!
I'm excited to start browsing through the gazillion posts over at the Ultimate Blog Party and meet some new bloggers!
First, let me introduce myself...(and now the Humpty Dance so... Continue reading ...
I spent the entire afternoon on Saturday painting in my backyard.
Listening to some great music. (Seether, Eric Hutchinson, Everclear, Jimmy Buffett and Train - thanks to all who introduced me to the song Hey, Soul Sister!)
I painted some of the living room furniture, picture frames and a few decor items. I'm in love with the results! I have a couple more accent pillows I'm in the middle of making and I'll post pics soon. Since I was stum... Continue reading ...

Happy Friday!!
First, I want to say THANK YOU to all the awesome peeps who are offering me some much needed advice for my kitchen redo! I'm getting more excited now that I'm hearing some great ideas!
Second, listen up...in case you didn't know, I have a page of this blog where I host a ton of super amazing giveaways of some really awesome products! There are currently three different giveaways running. Do you see that little link at the top of this page? The one that says "Current Giveaways"?... Continue reading ...
I totally agreed with that one. I was happy I secured it with thumbtacks to see what it would look like instead of going all out.
I rearranged some dishes and left the doors off the upper cabinets. I'm left with this...
I like it. It needs paint.
So, one of my conundrums with all this is that my kitchen/dining room/living room are all open. No walls separating the three. To me, it seems like all three rooms must be the same (or at least coordinating) decor. It just seems lik... Continue reading ...
I was going to vlog my Lost post for the day. I really was. Yet, there's no vlog attaching going on here.
I was feeling in a rut today. Feeling unproductive. Unmotivated. Unable to be either.
So, I started out with Thrifty Decor Chick and then went to clicking on the blogs that had linked up to one of her things. I perused tons of blogs where people are doing all sorts of awesome redo's in their homes and it totally inspired me. Well, inspired and depresse... Continue reading ...
Despite Snappy's allergies totally kicking her butt this weekend, spirits were high as the kiddos got their egg huntin' on. She is still a little cruddy but, totally on the mend!
I'm hours away from the newest Lost episode and totally stoked about that! So, let's kick off this Tuesdayness with Supah Mommy's Post It Note Tuesday!

You know, I spend a lot of time wondering ways that I can go "green", wondering if I'm "green enough" and if the products that I use for my family (from toys and clothes to food and cleaning supplies) are more harmful than helpful. It's important to me to teach my kids by showing them and I truly feel they can gain a sense of caring about our earth and the products that we use if they simply see me caring and hear me talking about those things.

Alright. I finally got this done!
I refused to be beaten by technology.
I won.
Technology schmechnology.
If you wanna play along with Mama. M's Five Question Friday, head over to her blog and link up. Be sure to hop around and check out the other bloggers while you are there!
So, here ya go!
So, after that first one, I felt this needed to be added.
Then, she wanted to do another. Last one today, promise!
Last night was a good episode but, didn't really make me jump up and down or anything.

And, I got almost no sleep last night.
I was tiiiii-rrrred today.
