10 Things that make me happy on a Monday...or Tuesday.

Molly Pokes. There isn't much I can do on my phone, but I can poke on Facebook. Every time I see Molls poked back I have to smile.

UT Football. Sorry, I think it's something in the water.

Knitting cute baby things. You just can't be mad when holding a little baby bootie.

The fact that it's not really Monday.

I don't work at the bank anymore. Whenever we would have a Monday off, Tuesday ALWAYS SUCKED!!! At least it's not the first of the month.

The promise of fall. Don't get me wrong, we still have a helluva lot of summer ahead of us, but Labor Day is past us, thus a promise. I don't even like the cold, but there is just something about this time of year that gets me going. Maybe it's the football, or that nostalgic feeling of the start of school. Or maybe it's just all the planning. Planning yard sales, Halloween, Thanksgiving, time with the family. I don't know, but it's really got me looking forward to something this year. (Maybe it's just that I'm not planning a wedding.)

Peanut butter crackers. I think that speaks for it's self.

Dinner, ready at home. One good thing about the beans not finishing in time for dinner yesterday is that I today all I have to do is boil some rice and make the cornbread. Mmmmm....

My plants. Especially the basil plant i grew from a seed. Miracles do happen.

Buzz on www.kayak.com . I just found a way to shave close to $200 round trip on my trip to NYC with the hubs. We may even be able to do hotel & flight for what I had budgeted for just the hotel. Don't you just love a great deal?!

Some days would be better spent in bed

More and more I have been feeling this way. Not because I'm sad or depressed, or have a really great bed, but because I'm so fucking sleepy all of the time. I think this morning I found our why.

As allergy season approches, and then worsens, snoring in my house enters epic proportions. I think Drew is going for some kind of record or something. It took on new hights this morning.

Nomally, when I wake up and hear him snoring I can either give him a slight push or roll him onto his side. Then I can typically resume my nights sleep. Neither tequnique worked this morning, which ultamitly resulted in a rather ticked off me throwing off the covers and muttering (maybe a bit more then a mutter) a few choise phrases at 5:30. Granted, that's not too early, but I had been laying there for an hour with no break in the motor.

So hey, I may look like I could kill you this morning, but at least I have on makeup. (and I even made it in early to work this morning)

The world begins in 8 minutes.




It’s been like forever. I promise, dear blog, that I have not forgotten about you. Alas, I have misplaced my camera and have been putting off a visit until I find it. Camera, still MIA.

A lot has been happening over the past several weeks though that has contributed to my lack of writing. My wonderful birthday came around, my mom had her knee replaced, and a few secret projects. Hopefully pictures will soon follow. I will also be having some house guest next week for SXSW, so we’ll see how that goes.

From an early age I decided that God must have a twisted sense of humor. Why else would a person who hates winter so much be born in February, the worst of the winter months? There is so much to dislike about the season. It’s cold (yes, I’m aware that I live in Texas, but it’s all relative people!), wet, and gloomy. The only thing I ever enjoy about winter is the off year it gets cold enough to ice over for a few days and the whole city stands still. There is something very aw-inspiring when a little frozen water can clear a city. We didn’t even get that this year.

I guess I have the equivalent of cabin fever. I’m ready for spring, sunshine, and skirts. I know it’s all psychological, as we still have pretty good weather, comparatively, but I miss the 90 degree sunshine.

Maybe part of the winter depression this year is just that, it’s this year. The man & I spent eighteen months planning a wedding, (Don’t get me wrong, I’m so glad to be hitched to this fella, but the actual event left a bad taste in our mouth. {Really bad planner, money stolen, ran the thing myself, ect.}) and so the last few months have been spent catching our breath and trying to reintegrate with the rest of the world. I think I’m just ready to start on the next thing.

I have finished my 101 list, & I will post it in the sidebar as soon as I get a little organization to it. A new year in my life, a new marriage, a new president, and spring is just over the horizon.
