Wow. So, I didn't really realize that it was Friday until just a few minutes ago. This week went by supah fast! First, I'd like to pat myself on the back because after totally losing my shit during the storms last week, I remained cool-calm-collected (or crazy-sexy-cool for you TLC fans) during the thunderstorms we had yesterday and last night. Yay me! Yes, I am congratulating myself on being "normal" and not freaking out when it's raining. Now, ladies and gentlemen, I'm not sure I can expres... Continue reading...

Wow. I haven't done a Wordless Wednesday post in a reallllly long time. I'm not sure I really can do something "wordless". That's my dad, my kids and my nephew on Father's Day this year. They were all hanging in the hammock and I just love the series of pics I got. Seeing mine and 0007's parents glow in grandparent roles makes me so happy. My grandparents mean so much to me and I love seeing my kids gain those relationships with their grandparents. Wordless enough? I'm not sure I can qualify ... Continue reading...

I'm being such a procrastinating, lazy arse today. Seriously, I am forcing myself to do this post and cannot pressure myself enough to vlog it. My procrastination has compromised into the form of a written blog post. Good news is that I didn't blow to Oz. The weather is still crummy and I'm still ever so slightly on edge but, the worst seems to have passed and I'm hoping that was the last hurricane in history. Don't burst my bubble. A girl can dream. I do have to say thank you to all my blogg... Continue reading...

I'm exhausted. You know the feeling after a rush of adrenaline wears off? That's happened to me three times so far today. Hurricane Alex is slamming the Mexico coast and will continue to head inward over the next few hours. While I feel awful for the people down there, here in the "Coastal Bend" (i.e. just inland of Corpus Christi) we're getting slammed with the righ-quadrant storm bands of this hurricane. That means lots of rain and possible tornadoes. The thing is, I'm scared of quite a few... Continue reading...

The weekend has been pretty nice so far. I haven't uploaded any pics yet though. Why? Because in just a few hours I am having my first ever meeting with another blogger! Consider it a warm up to the Texas Blog Party. Heehee. So, it's Sunday. I haven't linked up with my pal Keely's meme in a while so, I figured I'd do it today. If you don't know Keely at MannLand5 or her Sunday meme Getting to Know You, um, what are you waiting for....go check her out, yo! Wait! Finish reading my blog and then... Continue reading...

I just realized that it's Friday.Yep. That's the kind of week it's been.For the last two weeks, I've been doing some painting. I painted one of the bathrooms, walls and cabinets. Then I started painting the kitchen cabinets. I got almost done in the kitchen when, two nights ago, 0007 made us both realize that....I didn't prime them! Fanfreakintastic. I was bummed, to say the least. Two weeks and a gallon of paint down the crapper. I'm not so much upset that I have to paint again. I love paint... Continue reading...
