Confessions of a freak

So I guess I am feeling the need to confess a few things and here they are.
1- I LOVE McRib sandwiches at McDonald's. (Bring them back!)
2- I cannot throw away a plastic grocery bag
3- I am a scent junkie! I love candles, oils, incense..etc.. anything that keeps my house from smelling like yucky boy smells.
4- I don't really scrapbook. It's pretty rare for me to do an actual page.
And the ultimate confession...
5- I secretly think mullets are hot! (Therapy... I know)

Breakfast in Bed


Just so you all know... my son served me breakfast in bed for my birthday a few weeks ago. The best part is that it was simply poptarts! He even slightly burned them around the edges for me! He is one thoughtful kid! I couldn't have loved it more if it was a full breakfast. Koy is the best!

I'm a Runnner!


Yeah, I am a runner! OK, I say runner in very loose terms. If I were honest I might say I am a walk trotter. OK, painfully ugly runner may be more accurate. So Sterling got me these shoes that I have wanted for some time. I went, I tried on and I came home with what I hoped would make miracles happen. Last night I tried them out for the first time. Not bad if I do say so myself. I ran (trotted) around the track a time or two and it felt good AND I am alive today to tell about it. Maybe some of you know my disdain for exercise. I hate it! I break a sweat doing Kegal exercises for heavens sake. (Speaking of, I obviously need to do more sweating to Kegals as I slowly pee myself the whole time I do run! How come I wasn't aware of this curse we woman must face? Hello, do I not have an honest sista out there willing to share this intimate detail with me before I go trotting?!!!) Anyway, I hate exercise but I have wanted to run for a long time. Hopefully, I will be a graceful runner from here on out. (I will practice my "exercises" so as to not mortify my fellow runners.)

Blast from the past!

So if any of you are a little loony like me, you might know the song to your right. I remember singing this with my sister and various friends until I am certain my parents would've like to GIVE me to the gypsies they were notorious of warning me about. When you grow up in a small town, you create ways to entertain yourself. I entertained the idea that I would be an entertainer! I remember singing in front of the mirror for hours on end. Getting my look and dance moves down to a science. (I don't do this anymore... no really... ummm). So my sister and I used to be in charge of the dishes each night and there we created the most wonderful works of music ever! We also sang a lot of good old western music. (I know...) Don't it make my brown eyes blue? We would prop our music books up on the window and yodel to our hearts content. My sister has a beautiful singing voice! My Dad does too. Actually, I am from a family of very musically inclined folks. I love this time of year especially because it meant a lot of good music around a campfire for me. So, to all those loonies like me out there, pause and listen to this blast from the past and take a second to comment on all your entertaining ideas of your youth.

p.s. One of my greatest joys in this life is that my children all LOVE 80's music! It doesn't get much better than big hair boys!

What the???


Here I am enjoying my Sunday afternoon when Bam!!!!! It hits me like a ton of pencil shavings in the form of an e-mail!
They sent me this picture on an actual graduation announcement! Date and all! Nothing like having my 35th birthday and a heart attack all in the same weekend!
