Happy Feet!!!


I have always thouhgt my feet are big and goofy looking. Not really girly. Sure maybe with a little tan they look okay, but always big. Last summer I got a big hibiscus flower on my left foot for me and I was going to get a Stargazer Lily on my right for my Mom. (it's her favorite flower) But, The first one hurt so bad that I have really procrastanated on getting the second one. So, today I got it done. It hurt jut as much as I remebered. I will never reccomend foot tattoos. WOW, not kidding. Hurt REALLLY bad. I mean really. But, I love they way my feet look. Now I think they are cute and girly.

To Mom:

I know you don't get tattoos, but I got the Lily for you. I love you very much and you are very special to me.

I REALLY LOVE MY SISTERS AND MY MOTHER

I edcided to be really cheesy, I really really love them and I want to let them know! I get sad sometimes to think that if Bella remains to be an only child she will miss out on getting to be a sister. My sister's are my best friends (besides Joe who is my VERY VERY best friend). They are beutiful and smart and I really admire them both for very different reasons. If you know us you will agree that we are so different in so many ways, but just alike where it matters. I am very thankful for them.

Happy Mother's Day!!
















I d a great Mother's Day and I hope you did, too!! Mine started off rough, but I will not go into that, but ended up being wonderful. Sometimes I need to realize that anyday that I am still "Sucking air" (as my Dad put it) is a wonderful Day. We met my Mom, Dad, Sisters, nephews, and neices, and one brother in law at Red Top Mountain State Park for a picnic. We had a great time. My Dad cooked hamburgers and the babies played in the baby cage, while the big kids played in the red dirt and got filthy. It was a great day!

Wicked

Has anyone read the book "Wicked"? I know it was aplay, but apparently it is a book , too. I ask because I was talking to a friend about the Wizard Of Oz and how it is a childhood thing for me and I love it and so does Bella. He then said I should read "Wicked" because it will change my whole perception obout the Wizard of Oz, maybe even ruin it for me. We were emailing about this and he hasn't gotten back to me. I am really intrigued.

I can be kinda cheap sometimes. Not really cheap, but frugal? Well, I have wanted a matching comforter set for my bed probably ever since Joe and I have been married. They are expensive! Now, there are somethings that I have no problem spending money, but I always look for the best deal. For the past 3 or 4 years we have had this beautiful quilt my mother gave us for Christmas, but the pillow shams were $50 a piece and the bedskirt was ridiculous. So we ended up with pillow shams and a bedskirt that I found on clearence when I worked at Kohls and it never really match at all. Not even the same colors and the bedskirt was for a king bed and we have a queen. So , I safty pinned it to fit. Long story short (too late), I went to Ikea with my sister and I sprang for a Duvet cover with matching pillow shams and I bought a bedskirt to match. I debated with myself if I should just go hog wild and get sheets too, but I decided I could not stand the guilt I would put on myself for a duvet cover AND sheets. So, I didn't get them. Joe has been gone back to Fla. for work. So, to be nice I cleaned our bedroom and put the new cover and pillows and bedskirt on and I just loved it. When Joe came home I was so excited to show it to him (am I a complete dork or what) and do you know what he said? " This is great, but did you get new sheets. I would have loved new sheets. " AHHHHHHHHHH!!!
