Mondays are my arch enemy…

Jesse Prom 2013 edited2

A whirlwind weekend has left me drained and exhausted. Rainy weather isn't helping the mood. So when I saw this new carnival I thought why not.. Hosted by ModMom it is titled simply enough.. I don't like Mondays.. Easy enough right.. I mean we can all agree that Mondays are not really anyone's favorite day of the week, because well it is Monday after all. Things just seem to irritate more on today. Things like Martha Stewart is in her 70's people!! How flipping wrong is that?? Or the … [Read more...]

weekend fun with friends and firepit 093

I love taking pictures. Some of my family is not so enthused with my camera love affair but oh well. Went yardsaling this weekend and found the CUTEST little dog clothes. As you know we have what many refer to as a deer chihuahua. He is tiny and petite and seems so fragile. Short hair, skinny body and he stands and walks like a deer, hence the name. But he shivers, because he doesn't have a whole lot of meat on his bones to keep him warm. So when I saw them I had to have them.. even the smalls … [Read more...]

My weekend the recap….

Oh yeah and pieces of said bacon crumpled up in it as well. He is a teenage boy of the carnivore variety, bacon and sausage rank right up there with girls and … [Read more...]
