Living out loud in the Carolinas

Category: married life

  • I’m home!  It’s so good to be home.  I got home around 10:30 last night after the longest drive ever!  I had a wonderful time in sunny FLA with my Nanny but it is so good to see my CSP & my puggies.  This is the first time I’ve even seen a computer in 2…

  •  Shanny asked me, the other Shannon, to post the following on her behalf. She’s off living the vida loca in Florida this week.  :-) I am in Florida living it up retiree style in a gated golf community where seniors zip around on golf carts like 70 year old nascar drivers! It is hot here. Really…

  • Andrea asked about a post I wrote a few years ago that involved me trying to take a photo of my engagement ring.  I dug up the post but the original photos are lost out there in internet space due to the photo hosting site I used to use closing down.  But I took a…

  • OK, so a few things to tell you. First of all we had the exterminator come out to deal with the ant situation I told you guys about. And while the bug man was here he told me that cornstarch doesn’t kill ants, it just feeds them. The internets lied to me! But now the…

  • Lisa advised me that I should explain a bit about Jon sleeping in the closet.  First of all, he only sleeps there if he has to sleep during the day.  Our bedroom gets too much sun.  Also there is an a/c vent in the closet so it’s nice and cool.  Plus, it’s big.  I mean…

  • Wow, you’d think a Tuesday would be just another regular day right? No. First of all I forgot to show you the cutest tea pot that Lisa sent me for my birthday. It arrived on Saturday and I just love the way it looks in my lime green kitchen! Y’all know by now to click…

  • Scene: the other night we’re in bed about to go to sleep. I was laying (lying?) on my back reaching for my CPAP mask. I pulled on the tube until I met resistance and realized my mask was stuck between the bed and the wall. I twisted around and jammed my arm down in the…

  • (click to enlarge) Well, I’m glad to see that IKEA is socially responsible. I’d have felt bad if they had gotten an F after I went and pimped them out on my blog. You can go here and see how your favorite stores and products shake out. Got this from Janet, who’s just moved to…

  • Jon and I went out for date night last night. We were going to have Mexican at our favorite Mexican joint by the mall but decided at the last minute that we’d go to Olive G@rden. It was the lure of the breadstick. Now I’m not usually a complainer. But you’ll see why I had…

  • We were super spoiled by my in laws last night for our anniversary. First they brought us these gorgeous place mats. Then they cooked a fabulous dinner for us. French onion soup, delicious bread, a yummy shrimp and cheese tortellini dish, steamed broccoli, and for dessert- tiramisu. It was all served to Jon and I…
