Thank you for the comments yesterday; I enjoyed reading some of the favorite books in all of your households and made note of all the recommendations. With today being Friday and the weekend almost upon us, I thought I’d share some pictures I’ve taken this past week. I’m really trying to work on my four … Continue reading »
I apologize for the disjointed blogging. My computer hates me and I am thisclose to giving it the Michael Bolton, Samir Nagheenanajar, and Peter Gibbons treatment (see here). The post you’re about to read has taken me three days to write because my computer keeps freezing and my work not saving. I’ve retyped each word approximately as many … Continue reading »
Phew. The month of February is almost over and (I’m sorry for the cliché…) I can’t help but ask myself where has the time gone? In typing that sentence, Paula Cole and “Where Have All the Cowboy’s Gone?” immediately wormed their way into my head like a bad hangover. Apparently it is 1997 up in … Continue reading »

So this year, I decided to switch things up a bit … Continue reading »
Warning! Warning! Warning! CHEESE ALERT Warning! Warning! Warning! Clay – I tried to book Bertie Higgins* for a private concert but sadly, he was unavailable to travel to Lawton, Oklahoma for such a minimal fee (a delicious home-cooked meal and free lodging), since we set a $5 budget. We will have to dance to a live rendition of Key Largo … Continue reading »
Yesterday afternoon, we attended the Sweetheart Banquet at our church. Not only were we served delicious food, we were also treated to a performance by Chairman of the Chord, a local barbershop quartet. Weston presented me with a flower and there were too many cupcakes to choose from, which was awesome to this girl with … Continue reading »
There are 323 days left in 2012 – you’re quite welcome for that little trivia nugget (is it really trivia when it just involves some simple math?). Last month, I shared my motto for 2012 – Be Well. And I am committed to living up to the multi-layered meaning behind the two simple words. But … Continue reading »
