Phone Link Up

I'm back again.

Watching the delivery men

Fridge doors

Empty space

*sigh* Ahh...love it

Franklin made a peanut butter sandwich

I actually got dressed on Wed. 

Dear Grocery Store, It's not even Halloween yet!!

Franklin kept insisting he wear the headband around his neck.

This weird rash...it's been a week. Now it just looks like bruises.

RAIN! It didn't stop us from getting our raw butter from the Farmer's Market

I thought this was important

At the zoo

Elephants are his favorite animal.

So that was my week. I was so excited about the fridge!!! Did anything exciting happen to you this week?

Yep, I'm a wuss.

I was planning to run this morning. I was going to start my day with a 2 mile run around the neighborhood.

Uh, it's raining.

If I were a hardcore runner I'd don a hooded sweatshirt and head out anyway.

Obviously I'm not a hardcore runner!

Do you run when it's raining? Or, if you live in a cold climate, SNOWING?

Boob Tube Babble

Linking up again!






Pan Am
I FINALLY watched this show and I'm hooked. I love love love it! I'm from the wrong era. *sigh*

Dexter
YAY Dexter is back!! It's weird to see the kid from Roswell as the bad guy...but I get "stuck" on characters like that.

CSI
I recently got caught up. The episode with the family that got killed? Yeah, I also buy baking soda a lot at a time...I thought it was funny that was "evidence" for a drug ring!

Glee
SIGH
Was this number really necessary? I thought the, uh, floor work during the dance part in the gym was a BIT much. They're supposed to be teenage girls.



 Warehouse 13
Season Finale. If you watched it you'll understand these thoughts...If you didn't you'll want to stop reading.
1) Why couldn't HG have put the forcefield around the BOMB instead of the people and saved herself too? I get it was a big moment and her one selfless act and blah blah blah...it was stupid.
2) Stefan called the mole from the start. Like, 2mins in to the episode he says, "THAT is the ultimate plan." He was right.
3) When Artie pulled out the watch I looked at Stefan and said, "What does that do again?" I don't remember...if it just magically fixes everything I'm going to be irritated.

America's Next Top Model
Do these girls not have to have medical checks? How many seasons have we had someone with some sort of medical issue?

Survivor
Do they show a lot of this guy's Christian professions because Matt was such a popular player last season?


There are a lot more I'm loving right now. Fringe, Ringer, etc...

Random Thoughts Time

- I need to buy gates for the stairs. My BABY was halfway up yesterday (sigh!)

- I think I'm going to start running every day. I only do a mile or so at a time...is that too much?

- I recently bought a size 6 jeans...I haven't been a size 6 in 3 years.

- I love my Diva Cup. I keep wondering why I didn't do this sooner...

- I have a love/hate relationship with Facebook. It allows me to keep in touch with my brother while he's deployed, reunite with old friends (including some from elementary school!), and build my business...
But it's also a chance for everyone to say what they think without a filter. A lot of people hide behind the anonymity of the internet and say things they normally wouldn't say in person. Some people *would* say these things in person... I guess I just need to get used to it as the internet is slowly becoming more and more focused  on social media.

- I guess my husband did *not* have food poisoning...because now Franklin is sick too.

- I need help with my 2 year old. He only listens when I yell. It's always been that way (before people start saying "well it's because you yell all the time.")


Any random thoughts you'd like to share?

Phone Pics: Family BBQ (and other stuff)

See all the stuff? Franklin barricaded him in...

Playing with the flash on my phone. It flashes a couple of times before ACTUALLY taking the picture.

Franklin's rash on Day 2 (it got better later)

Notice the shoes. Yes, there was water too.

I salvaged most of it

He was watching me play with vinegar and baking soda

Just a cute kid

Stefan's family's land

Homemade pico de gallo. I only eat it at these gatherings!

One drink option

The other drink option (poorly stored wine...most of it was gross lol)

Cute grasshopper

Cute kid

Nearly naked kid

the lake

When Stefan was a kid the water came up to the pier...they could jump off.

On the hayride

I don't know why...I just thought it was a neat photo to take.

Daddy and son

Crashed out

It was an AWESOME weekend!

Public Service Announcement

I'm doing this post for the good of THE WORLD.


I had plenty of parties in college. We even had a few loud parties. However, we were always mindful of our neighbors as the hours wore on...the later it got, the more we encouraged people to lower their voices or go home. (Yep, that was the choice: Stop yelling or leave)


My neighbors don't seem to grasp this concept.


Now, I'm not your mother. I don't care how late you stay up or how much you party. By owning a house you have to be at least 18 and, in my mind, an adult. 


However, when it's 2am and I can hear your music in my bedroom over my box fan it means it's too loud. I'm flexible though. I don't start getting pissy about volume until at least midnight. But I'll say again: 2am is too late to be loud. 


Okay, you're right, the law is that unless you're outside being loud or the music is 80 decibels from the street you're allowed to play it as loud as you want. I'm willing to bet that most people would say that human decency "laws" beg to differ.


So, to all my readers, the next time you're having a party be mindful of your neighbors. Go outside your house and see if you can hear the music (or feel the bass) and adjust the volume down if the answer is yes. Not everyone can sleep until noon or nap during the day. 


This has been a Public Service Announcement. You may now return to your regularly scheduled blog.

I Watch Too Many Shows

Let's see...what did I watch this week?

America's Next Top Model
Okay, seriously...how many times can they say b**ch in one episode? That was REALLY annoying.

Survivor
This show is starting to annoy me. I know the producers thought that Redemption Island would change things up...but they need to reboot the entire show or something. It's too predictable now...Russel Hantz was cool when he found the idols, but now everyone is doing it. I mean, why even give clues at this point? Why not just say "There's an idol at camp! GO!!!!"

Weeds
Please be done soon. The shark has been jumped...

Haven
Is anyone still watching this show? Sometimes I feel like the only "fan."

Ringer
I'm behind...but it still isn't "good" yet.

New Girl
I like the d-bag jar....and did they change characters after the pilot? There was the one black roommate...and now there's a new (also black) guy? I was confused.

2 Broke Girls
The amount of sex references in the first 5mins was overwhelming and I turned it off.

Glee
DONE DONE DONE

Fringe
*sigh* Love this show! I really want to know what they're going to do about Peter. He was my favorite character.

Warehouse 13
Also a good show. I'm curious to see where they're taking it.

Eureka
This next season will be its last...thankfully.

Supernatural
Another one that shot itself in the foot early on. They defeated their main bad guy too early and had to start making stuff up. The show was AWESOME when it was just these two brothers hunting creatures. Yeah, they were looking for the demon that killed their mom...but they came across other stuff along the way. I got to learn a lot of cool folklore. Now it's focused on one thing each season...and it's sort of sacrilegious.

The Big Bang Theory
It's signed on through 2014...with good reason!

Words to Remember

I needed this reminder this week. I hope it blesses you too!

Gratituesday

These past few weeks things have been rough. God has chosen to show me that I do, indeed, have a 2 year old...

And I'm grateful for every second of it.

Wait, what??

I know that if you're friends with me on Facebook you probably don't know that I do, really, love my life. (And if you're not friends with me on FB you're missing out! Links will be at the bottom of this post!)

I have a friend with a baby that's a micro-preemie. She was born before 30 weeks. I'm sure that her mommy would gladly be cleaning up poop messes if it meant her daughter could come home.

A woman in my Due Date Club with Franklin had a still born baby. I'm sure she'd take dealing with tantrums if it meant her son could be with her.

My boys try my patience. They send me into prayer several times a day. They make me cry several times a week.

But I laugh with them. I get sweet cuddles. I get to see their faces light up when I'm gone and come back (even if it's just a couple of mins while I go pee!)

He got into my makeup and drew on his eyes with lipstick...

He was trying to attack me
