Saturday night my mom, sister Sara & I got together to watch Trading Spaces & While You Were Out. It seems like on TS, that someone got screwed out of a good room in both episodes, although everyone seemed to love their rooms. Frank totally countried up that kitchen (too many colors for such a…

Saturday after work I stopped by Bath & Body works to see if they had any new fall type scents. I can’t be walking around smelling like coconut in the fall. I found White Ginger & Amber. It’s different, smells great- kind of spicy. Plus, they’re body splash is on sale for $5 a bottle…

Last night we went to see Sweet Home Alabama. It was a cute, fun movie. Just don’t take some of the content too seriously. There are quite a few Southern stereotypes taken to the limit, that quite frankly, just don’t happen here anymore. At least not as much as they did. Southerner’s get such a…

Remember playing MASH when you were a kid? Mansion- Apartment- Shack- House? Now you can play online here. Apparently I’ll be leaving J soon to marry Vince Vaughn. You can find us living with our 3 kids in an apartment in the mountains. I’ll be the one driving the periwinkle BMW. Snazzy.

Knitty is here! And it’s so nice! Very impressive. I wish I understood half of what they’re talking about. Knit one, purl two. I don’t knit. I don’t know how. I’d love to learn, but I don’t know anyone who could teach me. I’ve tried reading those “teach yourself to knit” books, but they don’t…

We’re going to be responsible today and open a safe deposit box. We can’t believe we haven’t done that yet. Especially with me being so paranoid about our house burning down. (she says as a candle burns unattended in the other room) We’re also going to finally go to a joint checking account, something I…

Today’s my first weekday off with this new schedule. It’s going to be so nice to be able to run errands today without having to fight weekend shopping traffic. We’ve basically got to hit all the major discount stores today for one reason or another. J’s off today too so it will be nice. I’ve…

Our dog, Nelson, has a problem. He’s chewing everything, all the time. I don’t know what else I can do about it. We talked to the vet and she said he’s probably bored and to give him things to chew on. He has rawhide bones, milk bones, nyla bones, pig ears & a large assortment…

at the grocery store this weekend. Man on cellphone: “DUDE! The karaoke police will come and GET you if you aren’t there by 9:30!”

Today’s the first day of autumn. I love this time of year because it’s leading us into cooler days & crisp nights. Plus all of the family gatherings & holidays and the traditions that go with them. Saturday my youngest sister Morgan came over for dinner and stayed to watch Trading Spaces with us. I…
