You all know how I love my sweet tea, well, this time I’m talking about a sweet tee. Have you seen the Blue Marilyn Motorcycle Tee? If not, you should. It’s really cute. I’ll put a picture of it below, so that you can check it out for yourself. It has a wide scoopneck, henley […]

Have you ever wanted to tell your spouse that? I do, daily. He calls every night to let me know that he’s on his way home and it’s normally a distraction to me. I don’t need to know when he’s coming home. As long as he’s here when I wake up, that’s all I care […]

Heat is one thing that I absolutely can not live without. I can’t stand to be cold and I refuse to. I can sweat it out in the summer, but I must keep my house warm in the winter. The only problem is that it tends to get a little expensive. There are ways to […]

Today has just been extremely lazy for me. I haven’t done anything. I woke up feeling bad and ended up laying on the couch for most of the day. Kel and I slept for about 2 hours this afternoon and then I spent the rest of the day laying around even more. Tomorrow will be […]

I really don’t know what to do. Jesse’s wheelchair is barely fitting through the doorways as it is, and now they’ve ordered parts to widen it. We are either going to have to move to a house with really wide doors, or we are going to have to widen all the doorways in our house. […]

You know, there’s one thing that I really like about computers… Being able to go back and see what others were doing on it before you came in the room. I walked in on Keith tonight and noticed that he closed the window so that I couldn’t see what he was doing. You know what […]

I know my niece is married and out on her own now, but it’s still hard to think of her as being an adult. They came over to Jesse’s birthday party yesterday and were talking about them being in the process of trying to buy a home and some land. I’m excited for them, but […]

I love naps. I really, really do. I think everyone should be allowed to take naps, even if they’re at work. I used to nap when I worked. Everyone else would leave the office at 2 except me and well… I’d go in the break room, kick my feet up in a chair and sleep. […]

So, I talked to my Daddy this morning and he said that someone told Jesse about the party… Turns out that Jesse had no clue. He was completely surprised. I think Jesse may have tried to get some details out of my Daddy as to why he was coming home today, instead of tomorrow, and […]

Keith is really wanting a new truck. I’m not sure why, though. His truck still has three wheels and runs most of the time. Ok, not really, but he does need a new one, I’m just not wanting the payment. He has been sitting at the computer, nearly every day lately, looking at vehicles and […]

After all the work I’ve done to put this party together and keep it a secret from Jesse… Someone told him about it this morning… I am beyond pissed at the moment. How mean is that to take the fun out of a birthday party for an 8 year old? I know he’ll still have […]

So, what do you do when someone starts singing a song to you about rehabs? Well, if you’re me, then you crack up. It’s very funny to hear a grown man singing “They tried to make me go to rehab”… Yes, Steve, this post is for you. Yes, yes, yes, it is. I really think […]

I really do not like televisions. I can’t stand having a constant noise around me, and well, with two boys, I am always having to hear the television. Sometimes I am forced to listen to two at the same time, each playing different shows. I do want another one though, but I want a large […]

I am around the half way point of being ready for the party tomorrow. I have almost everything decorated, so the main thing that I’ll have to do tomorrow is cook. A few that I know are coming tomorrow are back on their diets, and that’s really causing a problem with the menu. They want […]

Kel has decided that he is seriously afraid of bugs. He sees a fly and starts screaming his head off. I have no idea what made him scared of them, but he is. It is really odd because Jesse loves them. He’ll play with any type of bug he finds, but not Kel. I try […]

Here are the rules for this meme:

But there is a catch;
a) Link 1 must be about family.
b) Link 2 must […]

Yeah, this is going to be one of “those” posts. Why can’t men get anything done right? I was on my way out the door this morning to get medicine for Jesse, when Keith announces that he wants to go get it. Fine with me, just make sure you get the right kind. Naturally, he […]

So, I received some samples of some Grey Poupon mustards this week in return for my honest opinion. Ready? Let’s go. I have always hated mustard. I do not know why, but I refuse to eat it, so one would think that my opinion shouldn’t count, since I didn’t like it to begin with. One […]

I heard Jesse whimpering all night long last night. I kept waking him up because I thought he was having bad dreams, but he said that he wasn’t. So, I get up this morning, look at him and immediately run to get a towel. He kept saying that he was fine, but I knew he […]

I really don’t like it when people repeat themselves. Keith is horrible about doing this to me. I’m not sure if he just doesn’t remember that he already told me, or if he thinks that I wasn’t listening the first time. He’s always coming in and telling me about work and what he had to […]
