Blogging for Schmucks
So this morning at mom’s didn’t go as well as yesterday did. I suspected this would be the case when I was awakened at around 3:30 in the morning by my mother, who wanted to wake me to apologize for possibly waking James by accident. He hates the waterbed there - as do I, which is why we usually sleep upstairs except in summer when it’s stifling - ( Read more... ) -
…and she was.
We’re on our “annual” trip to my Bluff City hometown, and once again took the route up through the Carolinas and over the mountain. Damn, that is a nice scenic stretch to welcome you home. Someday I’ll actually stop at one of those overlooks and take a picture.
Seems it’s been exactly a year since our last visit, which was unintentional, but just ( Read more... ) -
Wild Azalea
Haven’t really wrapped my mind around this weekend fully - maybe because it was intended to be escape and relaxation, and it fairly well succeeded. This particular cabin was a big win, as it was decked out with everything we needed - including a nice den with pool table, gas grill and a hot tub. Great place for three couples and two dogs for a ( Read more... ) -
Just FYI
I don't have posters or team t-shirts, there's no teen crush, no inappropropriate dream about any characters or myself wished into the story, and no camping out for any book or movie lines, but I have read the entire Twilight series, have seen the movies, and don't take offense at people who don't like this stuff. I will freely admit wanting to see ( Read more... ) -
More ridiculousness
Less fun = actually playing DJ Hero
More fun = these crazy song mixes that I am loving
I think I’d rather let somebody else DJ and just dance. =)

And on the first day…
Two projects had come to mind with our three-day weekend coming up: One, to finally finish my office to include the treadmill/desk. Two, to put out our upside-down container garden.
Monday morning, I’d been thinking about it and I’m ready to get into it. So like a complete idiot, I decide to go ahead and start on project one - which ends up as a ( Read more... ) -
Who knew?
Playdate in the park? Easy up, chairs, picnic blanket, all carried on the rockin’ cooler with wheels. Free, fun sun park pleasure. Me likey. We must do again!
Happy Birthday again, Laura! What a great idea for a gathering!
Except, word of warning: if there is a posted sign for restroom hours, you’d better damn well know what time it is before you ( Read more... ) -
This weak…
The car is on empty, the fridge is on empty, and my energy level is on empty. Apparently I left it all in Florida at the beach. Perhaps I should just go back for it…
All I have wanted to do this week is nap, with a side of napping. The slightest bit of food wakes me up a minute, then puts me into a carb-coma or something. Nothing really tastes ( Read more... ) -
Postscript
This evening I had the pleasure of meeting Chad’s wife and her fair-haired children. I mentioned on Facebook that I was actually stunned to realize that I’d never met them before - Chad comes up to Alabama to deer hunt over Thanksgiving or New Years every few years so we’ve seen him, but the big visit with Beth and the kids was only relived in ( Read more... )
