Here is some rambling for you guys and in no certain order.... 
I had a Happy Hump Day. Did you?
I went to Troy with the boyfriend and we both worked.
I cut hair and helped David with some engineering jazz, no jokes. Lunch for two at the Pig Cafe.
We got to spend some time with my purdy Mama and handsome Daddy.Always a plus.
Ziggy be-bopped along with us, of course.
Tomorrow we are having a lovely house full over for dinner. Oh, shenanigan's ahead.
This weekend, Kellen, one of my very best friends is coming to visit from Birmingham. Hyper happy!
We chose a boat ride over cooking last night and settled for a party platter and cupcakes. It's legal.
Bayou-Lena floated the dirty water with the total of 12 last night... And two pooches, so actually 14.
I'm about to watch Chelsea Lately and hopefully crash. Because I am exhausted and have some money to make tomorrow.... And it requires me getting up flippin' early. Eeek. Good Night, nuggets.

love,
m

 
good tune tuesday!

"i believe in the miracle, 
i believe in the spiritual, 
i believe in the one above, 
I believe in the one i love"

Mr Franti, You know how to shift a mood of mine in the right direction so darn quickly.... If I was stranded on an island and could have a performer like you I think I'd survive....
It's safe to say you rock my socks off because you know I'd prefer to be barefoot anyways.

I feel like there is a need in my life for little ninja-like Chuy's to cheer me on through some days and when I accomplish something of importance (that nobody else is there to witness) they shower the place of accomplishment with confetti. That would be glorious.

That's all.

love,

m

I woke up to a sweet (sweet!!) note.

It's going to be a GREAT day! 

Now I am off to cut hair.... and will return in time for a little cook-out with the good people. Kabobs in our tummies, yes. Did I tell you pop tarts that it's going to be a great day??

love,

Going back to elementary and middle school-ish is.... EASY (for me)

Go to Wally World and buy these two things:

-capri suns. (strawberry kiwi)

-pecan swirls.

Me purchasing these things happened in my life today and it was such a clutch flash back. I just wish I still had all my lunch boxes from those days (and the notes my parents tucked away in them).... Gah, my "packed lunches" were unrealistically divine. 

Who knows how to make a lunch box full of satisfaction for a young buck? 

Oh, my parentals sure did. 

Even more the reason to love love love them. Just thought that flashback was blog-worthy.

love,
m

I will be doing this tomorrow.

our sunday afternoon captain had four legs and the cutest set of crooked teeth they would have made you swoon.

ya'll are jealous. it's only human.

this is what Ziggys calls "the good life"....

 

a few scenes from our weekend....

bird watching

sneaky tongue action.

I hope you all had a great weekend and have an even better week.

rain delay

You would know that we just got stuck out in a down pore. It's a shame that we didn't just wait it out under my friends boat house. 

But here is a promise - It's not going to stop us (nor slow us down) on this Sunday Funday..... because we just aren't going to let that happen.  I guess there was a reason it didn't work out for my parents and grandparents to come down to ride the boat this afternoon. It's not the pretty sunshiny day it started out to be.. Where is the sun, little darlin'?

love,

Ollie's Army Poker Run

There was a poker run on the lake yesterday to help fight Cystic Fibrosis. I actually won third place! (but donated my money back because it was for a good cause) The boyfriend and I got a little too much sun so our Sunday afternoon boat ride might require the top up.Ziggy was not left out with the poker run. (thanks to thoughtful Mr. Bob) She even got to attend the band party that night where she was known, and loved of course, by everybody. She went right up to the band and smiled with her crooked little teeth at the lead singer like she might have been flirting a little.....
