heads up

My gypsy soul is back from being on a one year break away from my life.... Just giving you a little warning! But please, sit back and watch. I promise not to fall short of a very interesting story. In fact, get yourself some pop-corn and enjoy the show.... my life. I'm ready to make some things become reality. And yes, I am still searching for a banjo player.

"to the gypsy that remains faces freedom with a little fear, I have no fear, I have only love"

My wish for the day....

this valentines day.

Yes, I celebrated the day of love. And we even continued our celebration as of last night. With boxed wine and clearance conversation hearts.... My sweet boyfriend was trying to do one of two things:

1) Show off his new challenge... attempting to become frugal.

or......

2) Show me that he listens. And he once heard me simply say, I love conversation hearts.

But might I tell you, when you spend every day celebrating love, Valentine's day just feels like any other day. Simply beautiful if you face the world like I do....

Miss Quinlan

Dear TQ,

I miss our adventures.

I miss turning an "atv" store into a gym in our very own little..I mean big... world.

I miss your laugh.

I miss your support with my part time palm reading job.

I miss our fake tatts that appeared on our wrists.

I miss our sleepless nights that took place time and time again.

I miss our made up vocabulary.

I miss your face, bigitme!

I miss sharing songs on repeat in person.

I wish you and I could relive many of the black out monster nights all over again. (including the night that I drove while eating 2 week old mac-n-cheese)

I wish we could knock on your old apt door again to see who it is now witnessing the life of.

I wish the two of us lived WAY closer together.

I wish I could see you right now.

I love you.

I love you.

I love you.

SEE YOU SOON!

love,

mmmm....Dreamy Creamy.

Tomorrow is supper club numero dos! It's our turn to host. I once found this cutie-pie at a chinese buffet and he can cook. (Yea, don't worry.... I kept him! And he's American not a chinaman) So, as far as our meal, he's in charge. Kabob's are the grub that is planned and let me tell you, I am excited. The thought of the pineapple grilled is dreamy creamy. Youtube "old greg" if you need a good video with the reason behind "dreamy creamy" being my choice of words describing what I know the meal is going to be.

Tonight was the original night for supper club but Krista took off towards Crestview to Bamboos. David and I would have definitely joined them if we didn't have to ironically go to Crestview LAST night for a surprise birthday party. Mexican was the grub, and yes it was dreamy-creamy. Just so you know.... La Rumba. Gah, give or take a letter. I think that is correct though.

I think you need to listen to this song! (another FYI for the stalkers)

Ani Difranco- If He Tries Anything

"I'm invincible so are you.. we do all the things they say we can't do.. we walk around in the middle of the night and if it's too far to walk we just hitch a ride"

If I knew what day it was I would give that day of the week a specific shout-out. But, I don't have a clue. So, I will instead give you a big fat toodles.

love,

Bye-Bye Bama Flurries.

SNOW NO MO'!

It's all melting today! But I do have some pictures to share! We all enjoyed it while it lasted. I am thankful Ziggy and I didn't get smacked by the humongous limbs that were splitting off the trees surrounding us! David was at work while I called him with the slightly over exaggerated story of "trees are falling, trees are falling"!! It was limbs big enough to be trees though, so I have right to reserve the reason to spice that story up a tiny bit! Also, I'm sad to say that the snow in Bammy never made me think "fresh powder mannnnn, let's go shred the gnar... so epic bro" So, I guess I will have to take a trip back to Breck for all that jazzy jaz. I'm not scared. I even have a hot little girl that will be more than willing to pick me up from the Denver airport...with a pretty rad poster in hands too might I add! I have faith in my lovely TQ!

love,

Freebie.

And NO, I am NOT trying to compete with these frugalmanias.... It would be impossible. But I do want to share a photo freebie.... thanks to Shelli! =) We are both very good to share our freebie finds.... Especially PHOTO freebies. With a face like mine (jokes) and three adorable kids like hers (no jokes) who wouldn't hit up an opportunity to blow up a photo to 8x10 fo' free??!! Walgreens. Online please, to avoid the wrecks and such in Bammy snow "storm" twenty ten, duh! Pick up whenever you feel frisky and get out of the house..... scardy cats! Promo Code- vday. Today only. Do it. Don't be scared. And with a smile, if you please!

love,

Re-united at last.

I know you have already heard about my run in to Miss Krista. Well, here she is! Despite the attire and no make-up we are pretty darn cute friends if I do say so myself.

I really, really fancy these things:

*we now have a supper club-Tuesday was the first of many. No worries, I'll be blogging about the first and, more than likely, every one. I'm sure I'll be bragging about the menu's our men come up with! =)

*can get to each other in 48 seconds if we need to, she's having a little tiny mite and i'm going to be something fierce in that childs life. (i don't know if we are going the aunt route or godmother route.....)

*that girl just understands me. Need I say more? Yes, I will. She puts a pretty cute little smile on my face!!

Snow Day! Let's Play!

The high for today is 34 and we are holding steady at 32 right now in Gantt, Alabama. Go ahead, assume the time is telling you lies because I'm up and at em' with nothing mandatory to do today... Well, it's not! It is 9:45 and I've been awake SEVERAL hours. Give credit when credit is due. Thank-you, thank-you very much! I have to say, it's not too shabby for Alabammy! The local tv channel in Andalusia is one of the things cracking me up right now.... Ziggy is the other! Channel 14 says "If you are not experienced in driving in the snow, stay off the road because it will save you a hell alot of money!" On the other hand was Ziggy, remember? Well, she can't decide if she likes the snow. This morning I was a bit scared that she was going to have no interest. She got all nervous. Don't ask me how I know she was, just TRUST me on that one! But as of right now she keeps prancing around outside in it (showing that she is a true girl because I mean PRANCIN') and coming to me like the sweetest little child showing her mother (who is a very well fit mother might I add) the snow on her nose. Talk about adorable. Ummmm, yea. I'd say so! Okay I'm going to step back out into that white confetti party! I mean, who turns down beautiful white confetti falling from the SKY! Not this girl. Yet, I'm sure I'll have more bloggity blog action later this afternoon! It IS nice to have so much day ahead of you rather than wasting it because you accidentally hit snooze the max amount of times before your alarm just quits going off in spite of your non-intended lazyness.

A case of the Monday blues.....

"Come Monday, It'll be all right.
Come Monday, I'll be holding you tight."


One thing I've come to realize......

Every day I'm blessed with isn't my day to conquer the world. There are plenty of days I am given that particular opportunity and plenty of days I'm just supposed to appreciate being alive and well. I like the thought of living a limitless and exotic lifestyle. It's some part of me I think I have always had and always will have, too.

I hope everyone is having a marvelous Monday! =)
love,
m
