A Lil Bit Of This, A Lil Bit Of That

It has really felt like Spring this week & I have to say I'm lovin' it. We bought some patio furniture last weekend & I've been able to enjoy it allot this week. Starting March 8th we'll have longer days thanks to Daylight Savings, WooHoo!! We had some thunderstorms last night, so relaxing. We had all our windows open & the back door so we just hung out on the couch listening to the storm & trying to watch American Idol but because of the storms our tv kept going out.

I go next Wednesday to take my insurance license test. I had a dream about it last night, it was crazy. I'm just ready for it to be over with I've been thinking about it allot this week. I haven't been in school for nine years so test taking & studying are a little unfamiliar for me.

I'm so happy it's Friday, at the beginning of the week I wasn't in a good mood. I hate it when I get like that. It' s like every little thing makes me mad. We've got lots planned for the weekend. Tonight we're taking Brayden bowling, that'll be fun to watch. He's absolutely hilarious these days. Last night we were eating dinner & he said "momma this piece of meat is a lil strong, do you think it's fat?" What he meant was this piece of meat is tough. I can't believe how grown up he is, but no matter how grown up he gets, he'll always be my baby. Any of you ever read that book,Love You Forever? If you haven't you definitely should. I have a baby shower tomorrow afternoon for a friend who's having her 2nd baby & she's having a baby boy. They've asked you bring your favorite book instead of a card so guess what book I'll be bringing?! Back to my point here! Tomorrow I have a baby shower to attend & we're going to start on our computer/treadmill room. After much discussion on paint color we've(well more like I've) decided to just paint it a taupey color. This way it'll be a neutral color & will go with everything. Then Sunday we're taking Brayden to meet my mom, he's decided he wants to go stay with my parents for the next week. So We've got a busy weekend ahead of us.

Sorry for my rambling on this post. Hopefully I didn't bore you to pieces or make no sense 8)

Just a Few Things I'm Ready For....

I'm ready to start wearing these



Daylight Savings starts March 8th. Oh how I love me some longer days.




Sitting on my patio enjoying some of these





Hanging out with friends more often. Seems like everyone gets so busy during the Fall & Winter so it's nice to be able to catch up in the Summer.



I've really grown to appreciate all the seasons but Winter is my least favorite of all. So needless to say I'm really looking forward to Spring

GroundHog's Day

I hear the groundhog saw his shadow, seriously does he ever not see his shadow?! The weather Saturday was fantastic. My parents came in on Friday night so we loaded up Brayden's bicycle & headed to the park Saturday morning. We walked the trails at Ben Geren & played at the playground then went to Carol Ann. That must've been the place to be, it was packed. It was so refreshing to be outside, especially after all this cold, yucky weather we've had. I usually stay cooped up in the Winter, not a big fan of being cold. After we played & walked at Carol Ann we headed home to tear up our gardens. What an accomplishment that was. I'm just glad my dad was here to help out. Not tht Shawnn & I couldn't have done it but it sure went by alot faster with 3 of us working. Brayden had fun digging in the dirt for worms. One of them got loose in the living room, I swear the thing was as big as a baby snake. It was disgusting, Brayden wouldn't pick it up & I couldn't well more like wouldn't either. So I called pawpaw to the rescue. My mom's birthday was Wednesday, so I made lasagna for dinner that night. Then we all just hung out watching t.v. & talking. It was another very relaxing weekend. I'm kinda starting to become a big fan of those :)

Yesterday we had plans to go to a Super Bowl party but I just wasn't in the mood to be around people. Anyone ever get like that?! I knew I wouldn't be any fun, I didn't want to 'small talk' with anyone, I just wanted to be alone. We already had plans for Brayden to be gone for the night, and that doesn't happen much. So I told Shawnn I wanted to stay at home. He went to a buddies house & I stayed home, ALL BY MYSELF!!!! It was wonderful, I did miss my boys after a while. Even though I laid around it was still hard to wake up this morning.

Work has been hectic today, it's been one problem after another. Like the saying goes "When it rains, it pours". We hardly ever have people come into the office but today has been a steady stream of people. Looks like we're going to have a busy week. At least it'll go by fast.

Shawnn did wonderful on his diet last week. Me on the other hand had a hard time staying focused. I did lose so that's the important thing. I've refocused(is that even a word?!?haha) & I'm ready to go this week.

Hope everyone had a great weekend & your week is off to a good start.

P.S. Notice I'm posting more?!?! YaY for me. I promise to try harder with pics. I went off without my camera this weekend.
