Mission OSD: Part O
This year, we didn’t say that we were making resolutions, per se, but more of life changes. We didn’t even discuss not using the word resolution. I’m not sure why, but it just came about thinking that in 2008 we were going to be more organized, simplified and disciplined. Mission OSD as my sister called […]

Today we had a photographer come to our home to do family (natural vs posed) portraits. I was super excited for her to come. We cleaned the house to a tee! We all wore white tops with blue jeans. Hopefully we’ll get to see them in a couple of days on the internet. I am […]

Alright, so I am feeling down right exhausted! I think it’s the culmination of stress exiting my body. If Tio Mark wasn’t coming in from a conference this evening and we weren’t meeting he and Tia Eve for a late night dinner, I would be dead asleep. And yes the little one is coming. He’s […]

Family Fun Friday
This past Friday was nothing special. Mom and Mama went out to eat couple of times during the week for lunch, so we figured it was leftover night. Dinner: chicken caldo and a chicken flauta halved. ‘lijah crashed early and Tia Eve popped in for a bit. We sprawled on our big bed and chatted the night […]

Oh! I absolutely ah-love the way our clothes smell after the dry cleaners. I always had my doubts about what really goes on at the dry cleaners, but doesn’t everybody? We started using a different location/store than we’ve used previously and the clothes have this smell to them. It’s not Downy or Tide fresh, but […]

Tonight we planned on having Family Fun Shopping Evening, but it had a frustrating, poopy ending for me. I was excited and happy to walk around after our wheat spaghetti dinner with meat sauce and just relax outside the house. We walked through J. Crew, Gap, Banana Republic, Mervyn’s, The Children’s Place (’lijah got a white button […]

Alright - I totally admit this is a somewhat boring post, but now that I am thinking about it, it’s gotta be documented for me. So to make a long, long story short - we had quite an adventure and made it home safely! And we are still wondering where our land is!
It […]
Self-Feeding Conflicts
Seeing our sweet, sweet boy self-feed is an amazing, yet conflicting feeling. My OCD brain is compelled to pick up every bit of food as soon as it falls from the bowl or his mouth and cringes when everything goes “squish, squish, squish” in between his tiny fingers. My motherly sense can’t help but feel […]
10 acres
I think it was Christmas time 2004 and Fran gave me a call at work, saying that she had found 10 acres of land in west Texas for auction on the internet at a great price: $2000. I was a bit leary, but Fran was oh so excited. Immediately, I wondered if it was legit, but she assured me […]

Life’s too short not to laugh and we laugh a lot! It’s that good laugh that comes from deep within your belly and makes your sides and throat hurt, hacking for breath. We poke fun at each other and not in a bad way. We both can take it and we know when to stop. So remember the […]

Just a quick journal entry - we did a fairly low key but delicious dinner night! Again, after my crazy work week, it was definitely needed.
We tried this new restaurant (new to us) called J Alexander’s. I didn’t go in thinking much, but I walked out thinking it was deeeelicious! I love food!
Fran […]

Let’s all drink!
I’m still here at work and probably will be for a while, so something just quick that popped into my head earlier today…
I’m not a big drinker at all. Perhaps one margarita a month, if that. And half way through my lips are numb, the room seems to spin slowly and I am just sitting there, […]
