glowing girl

So yesterday the girl began planning her baptism. She tried on my dress, as that's the one she's getting the actual baptizin' in. She had the biggest smile as soon as she put it on! We then had to plan the rest, get things figured out. Now all we have to do is get the date set!

hot & tired

So, my AC is now on an every year recharge. I wish I knew that before I was hopeful the other night and turned it on. My bad foot was throbbing (wonderful weather!) and it was hot and humid, so I turned it on. It ran for an hour, and the temp in my house didn't drop a single degree! When I opened the house back up, a storm was blowing by and it cooled off quickly! Oh, well, now I just wait for someone to have time to charge it!

I thought I was going to sleep for the night at 7:30 tonight. I was wrong. I woke up almost a half hour later and now I am wired. Yay!

Other updates, I hung a shower curtain and blinds last weekend. Maybe I'll finally recover the kitchen chairs this weekend, otherwise I will play with electricity!

thanks, Thanks, THANKS

So I went to celebrate a favorite friend's birthday, and when I came home, my yard was mowed! A wonderful night! I don't know who it was, but I sure am thankful!

I may have flashed the roofers

Yesterday I got my new roof. While taking a bath during the process, my doorbell kept ringing and someone was pounding on my door. I get out because I figure the roofers set my house on fire or something similar. I then can't find my bathrobe. After searching and searching, I finally find it in the girl's room. The doorbell is still going, so I don't even try to look for the tie. I answer, and the guy tells me I need to get my car out of the garage, because they need to put the dumpster in. So I go and get the car out, I can't see at all (I didn't have contacts in, and didn't even think to get my glasses), there is wet hair matted all over my head and in my face. I see that I am blocking traffic, with the dumpster truck and my neighbors. I park the car on the street, and try to get out. The wind is blowing, and I am trying to keep my modesty, and shut the door, and scamper back in the house unnoticed. That didn't happen. I was keeping my head down, but glanced up once to see all the roofers on edge of the roof looking at the mess I was, and neighbors driving by gawking. All I can say is at least the kids were in school, and the roof was done by 1pm!

allergies

So I'm having allergy issues... I can't breathe!!! In the mornings I sound like a Disney villian. I am hacking like a carton-a-day smoker as well. And the cottonwood fuzz hasn't even begun to blow through the air.

Oh, baseball league that I don't want my son involved with. I emailed you with that information, and you didn't even seem to find a concern with it. If my son sets foot on your fields for a "practice" again, especially without proper protection, you will find yourselves defending your stupidity!

conversations with the girl

when you read the title, say it in your head like "deep thoughts, by jack handy"

me: (checking out my planet status) "why don't any of the guys I send messages to write me back?"

girl: "probably because they think you are too hot for them!"


I LOVE THIS GIRL!!!! SHE IS WONDERFUL!!!
