Job description

I heard a want ad on the radio this week. The job description fit me like a glove:

  1. Very organized
  2. Efficient
  3. Task oriented

So why did Robert let out a laugh when I told him this job was meant for me? Is it because I've "organized" our library into an office, wrapping station and drawing station? As I speak, there is a pink boa , a photo storage box and a pillow lying on the ground. The desk may be covered with papers, an old ink cartridge and even a package of "Pop Rocks". Is it because I may not finish 60% of the things I start? Or maybe because I am almost through cleaning a child's room and instead of fighting through it and finishing, I mosied accross the house to blog?.!

I laughed too, but I sure love my life and my ways.

Free vs Monthly payment

So, I've decided to dust off my blog and post to my heart's desire. The newsletters were fun and I really like them, especially during the FREE trial. But I decided not to sign up and acquire a monthly bill. Who needs an extra bill a month when you can blog for free? So here we go (again), here's a window to our world....


We are pretty much recovered from our lovely "stay cation." Spring Break began with me having the flu and bronchitis. It was horrible, I thought I was knock, knock, knockin' on Heaven's door! Yuk. Cole was on an anti viral b/c he had very mild symptoms of what I had and Cade was on antivirals b/c he flat out drank out of my contaminated Gatorade! Aubrey, well, she was on her Dad's clock. She went with him to the store, barber shop and of course, she came back with new shoes. Good for her! She said she never wanted to go back to the barber shop because it "smelled like deodorant." When it's cash only and closed on Mondays, Robert deems it a true barber and graces it with his presence.




Last weekend I rented a Camaro for Robert to play around in. It was a fun anniversary surprise and thankfully it's 2010 and a mullet is not required! Brian told me to tell Robert, "Let's see if this thing has a governor on it." I thought it sounded like a good line although my delivery was off, way off. We were on I-20 when I said it and he said, "Okay." And we were off to the races until I hollered, "I'm just kidding, BRIAN told me to say it." I gave Brian the report and he said that's exactly how he figured it would go.




Happy 60th Birthday to my beautiful Momma! We went to our favorite hibachi restaurant. There's just something fun about someone cooking for you and then trying to throw food in your mouth! We had Nothing Bundt Cake for dessert. That is some gooood cake. It's really good the day after, too. I cannot vouch for taste after the 2nd day because it's never made it that long with me in this house. (White chocolate is my personal favorite or personal enemy, I haven't decided.)
