Makes you think....

She thinks she is big and bad

Yes she seems to think she is big, bad and has some big juevos.

But alas, she is a little bitty Dachs puppy. And once she realizes she is a little too in over her head, she runs to me like a good puppy should.

Lady seems to think she needs to bark and somehow make her presence known when we have our front door open. Everyone that walks by, every leaf that blows by, every car that drives by is victim to the bark. She starts barking, thinking she sounds big and bad. This always leads to Panther barking, who is a large dog (part lab). Once Panther barks, Lady goes running. And she runs to me. Scared beyond belief, shaking and whimpering. Its so utterly cute.

Just like a good little girl, she knows who her mama is.

5 days...really?

So I apparently leave in 5 days! Holy cow....I'm so anxious yet excited. Damn I have alot of crap to get done and absolutely NO time to do it....should I make a list? Check it twice?

He is home

Today Chris was discharged from the hospital, much to both of our amazements. We thought he was going to be there at least one more day. They called and wanted to know what he wanted for dinner and breakfast the next day. Naturally we anticipated him staying. He was even loving his hospital bed. He said it was much more comfortable than the one we had at home. I don't know whether to be ashamed or laughing at such a silly thing.

He is doing well. They have no idea why he passed out. No answers to anything at all. But he is home, asking me for something to eat, and making me feel better knowing he is here and not in a hospital.

Scared & Lonely

So this morning Chris wakes me up. I thought it was a normal wakeup, I do it everyday to take him to work. Today was different tho.

He was a mess. Literally. He had slurred speech, was uneasy on his feet, had two cuts on his forehead and what looked almost like roadrash on his nose.

Apparently he got dizzy and fell in the garage. He hit his head on concrete. How long he was out, I have no idea because I was asleep.

We went to the ER and Chris had a number of tests done. Nothing was found, but he was admitted. So right now he is at the hospital. And I am here, lonely and a little scared. Not knowing what is going on isnt settling right in my stomach.

Free or Cheap ≠ Good

Free or Cheap ≠ Good

Yep you heard me right. Im in the depths of utter horror right now.

So tonight I decided to bake a cake. I had everything all set. I baked the cake, let it cool, then frosted it.

I figured if I was going to cheat on my diet, I might as well do it good! So I cut a piece.

Now lemme tell you something. I took a bite out of the nastiest cake EVER! The frosting that I got, I believe, for free if not then for cheap was horribly bad. A mixture of metal and I believe what Shit would taste like.

I can NOT get this taste out of my mouth at all. I've tried drinks, tic tacs, eating something else, brushing my teeth....Next is ripping my tongue out of my mouth.......

so ladies and gentleman...Free or Cheap ≠ Good

First Email...

Most who know me know that my brother is going to Afghanistan. He is one of my younger brothers.

He is leaving this weekend (he is in North Carolina as I type this) and I am finding it hard to talk or even post about him right now. So I will give you what he emailed me. :)




Yep it was just a picture. But it was nice to see his face. :)
