Hi Everyone! I hope you and your family had a very Merry Christmas! I hope 2008 will be your best year yet!
I had a really nice Christmas. My aunt, the professor and I had Christmas at my house. We all cooked and dined as it rained outside here. It was a cold rain...so my lit fire place was wonderful!
My parents ended up with a stomach virus and did not come here. It was the first Christmas I have spent without my parents. It was a sad in that aspect, especially with the year that my parents (mom's cancer) have struggled through.
The professor and I exchanged gifts. He can be very thoughtful! He found me a New Orleans newspaper printed SAINT book with all of the success last year after the hurricane and the trials and tribulations that faced the city. He also got me some Fleur De Lis bookends,a Fleur DE lis gold book mark, a DVD series Kings of Queens, and 3 carat peridot ring. He took me into every jewelry store in the mall and many magazines/flyers. He found the earrings to match in another store. He really does have a sweet tender heart. We had a nice romantic Christmas at my house.
I made in ***A*** in my graduate class this semester. Yeah!!!
I'm home from work today. I just can't handle feeling this crappy and screaming at kids to hush.
I absolutely did the right thing. Ughhhh
I am feeling a bit of 'undeclared confusion" at the moment. Last night he called and had a few things to tell me. One was that he wants me to go to a party for one of his faculty members Sat night at a blues martini bar.
Second, he says I did tell you my Ex is coming in for a night to see the girls when they are here a day or two after Christmas. I told her she could stay here. I was totally silent. I trust him...but I guess I wanted sometype of input asked of me, rather than him saying this is whats happening. Are ya with me?
He did tell me over a week ago he doesn't want to see anyone else and wants us in a committed relationship.
I need to go back to bed and then wrap some gifts.
Hope you feel better today than I do.
Meow Meow Meow
LAST WILL
It's a stange day for me. I wish I was at home. Just didn't wanna move from my bed this morning!
Yesterday, I took R 3 balloons, some flowers and chocolate fudge brownies. (He LOVES chocolate) Well, he told me to call after my work meetings. I did he answered his work phone, "R's house of flowers". I thought it was cute. I had a choral concert last night and invited him to go with me. We met for dinner and he said he was going home from there. He says "The flowers and stuff was a bold move for you". I wasn't quite sure how to take that ~~~ I wanted a THANK YOU !
He asked me to come over after the concert, but I went home instead. He just emailed and said he stayed home from work today that he wasn't feeling well. I told him i'd pick up anything he needed after work...if he didn't need anything then I was going home. I have so much stuff to do at home --I have been neglecting!!!!
Has everyone but me finished their Christmas shopping????
I wanted to pass out my N.O. goodies, spices and mixes to my teacher friends by the end of this week...otherwise we get stuff from kids later in the week and wanted to be seperated from the other stuff. I am cranky today can you tell???????
I'm not feeling quite that bad...actually I woke up with a smile on my face and my guy next to me. I was so comfy that I did not want to get out of bed at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I made it here barely. I am in a rather good mood. I played Jeopardy with my Language Arts classes today. We covered vocabulary, spelling, parts of speech and a novel we just finished.
I took the liberty to go pick up a Santa balloon,one red and green balloon, 2 brownies and put together a few flowers and drove them over to R's work which is the college. I knew he wasn't there (he was in Atlanta for a conference this morning). So I'll wait til I hear from him. Only one person saw me deliver them to his office.... so I doubt I'll totally freak him out.
Last night he decorated more in my front yard and brought over a wreath for my front door. He really is a home maker....I DIG IT.
How do my blog readers feel...what are your personal thoughts on Eloping????
I'll dedicate this to my dad. As it is his birthday today...however he is on Portsmouth England for business. He is testing some Hovercrafts and their mechanical functions. He designs them and handles Propulsion...I am proud of him....
I did have a really busy weekend. I was sick Thursday night. A god awful tummy virus. I called into work sick Friday. I was up practically all night Thursday running to the bathroom. Can I say YUK!!!!
I had a great day yesterday. I got to wake up to R. We ran a few errands and he grilled shrimp, salmon (in a honey sauce), smoked sausage stuffed with artichoke and cheese. HE also sauteed tomato, squash and zucchini...It was yummy and I have left overs for the whole week!
We just had a really good weekend...lots of positive talking and sweet sentiments. He hung up some more Christmas lights in my front yard. We watched some football. Ya'll It's getting all kinds weird.......I am feeling all warm and fuzzy!!!!
Well, it's finally Thursday. I am feeling a bit odd. (Sorry that is normal for me).
Last night R surprised me with two bouquets of burgundy and white chrysanthemums. I was in a moo moo doing dishes out of the shower and with my hair on top of my head . I looked like a ton of bricks hit me. Can I say scary?
He came in and grabbed some of the Christmas lights I bought and set them out in my yard. He did a pretty good job. We watched a little tv and talked. He apologized for being a butt head Monday night. He was just really cranky.
Tomorrow is Friday. Can I say AMEN?
How pushy am I to have sent him and email that reads: "OK. You said once or twice that you didn't know what to shop for when it came to me.
I am going to go out on a limb and act completely presumptious...geeze do I hope I am not making a mistake on this one. I was in Sam's last week and saw a couple of things that I liked. So I am going to include a link......please don't misconstrue this as pressure. Think of it as getting to know my taste.....
Sam's Club - Search Results "
OK. I am the star of the show. This last week has been really tough on me. I am close to 2 family members....both of them are ON me about losing weight. One is just not tactful. The other one tries to guilt me into it. She says if you won't do it for me....then do it for your new man. Well, what about losing for the health problems...the high blood pressure and the type 2 diabetes.
I told you he hurt my feelings over the weekend right? Well, we were driving down the road and talking about his ex- whom I liked. He made some comment that she was chunky now...I said "You think she's chunky now?' He says "well yes, she lost alot of weight a couple of years ago I mean she used to be as big as you are" .
Ok my heart sank. I mean really sank. He likes BBW women....and I knew that going into to this...but the comparison he made really distraught me. It ruined my entire day. We ended up talking on my couch that night...he went home and made me brownies of all things. I just started crying. I mean I felt like if anyone was on my side he was. I am not even PMSing. I just lost it. He apologized and said he liked me just the way I was, but if it bothered me why not do something about it.
Last night one of my relatives just laid into me...I finally said "If you and she don't shut up about my weight, I will just quit talking to you". and I hung up the phone.
This is one of the ceiling Murial's in the wedding church of my dreams. I want everyone to know how spectacular this church is!
Below is the out side of the church in the middle of Jackson square. I can dream.
My weekend was alright.... Yesterday was pretty good. I slept in....I was lazy until after noon. I did get alot accomplished though. I managed to cook a couple of dishes. I made a shrimp fettuccine pasta with cheddar cheese and bacon. I also made jambalaya. R came over and blew off my drive way, rearranged my shelving in my garage and changed some outside light bulbs for me. He was feeling like playing house apparently!
We watched the Saints get beat. It was sad. I was upset they lost in the last 20 seconds of the game. PATHETIC.
We rearranged my furniture and put up my Christmas tree. He appreciates balance. I enjoyed the "playing house" aspect. I did dishes, vacuumed, and laundry.
I am being realistic though...I have seen the multi faceted aspect of his personality. He's pretty vocal on some things.
I still need to find something personal to give him. Mustangs are the only connection I have to go on, well o.k. I can gear it towards photography. He has books, I thought about finding a mustang toy of some type.
Well the hair I am pleased with...The colors are not as drastic as I had hoped...but he always does a great job styling me...I wanna have him here at the house for daily attention.
R hurt my feelings...I just clamed up. I called a friend and she ranted and raved that I not let it ruin my day. I am going to try. He did this before the salon this morning. I went there stayed 3 hours...and then took myself for a manicure. I feel a bit more relaxed.
We met on Halloween---so technically today is a month we have been seeing each other.We have moved so quickly it feels like we have been seeing each other six months. I had an after noon of football planned and my favorite dining establishment booked with reservations for 8. I need to perk up.
I do have a paper to wrap up for my class. I need to email it in the next hour. I better get busy.
Men suck. Sorry. He just hit a nerve.
Thank God it's Friday and that I get to leave work in an hour....AMEN AMEN AMEN
I have a busy day tomorrow. I have a hair appointment at 11:00--- I am soooooooo NOT a morning person. I need to be able to SLEEP in til noon. At least I do not want to have to function (i.e. put on makeup and leave the house) before 10:30. I do however need to get my highlights take care of again--It has been 2 months ok..maybe 3. I am debating on a few colors. I usually go copper and blonde...because my hair is a light brown. I have considered a copper and a darker brown. I usually go pretty safe when it comes to hair. After all, in high school I did dye it every color possible....blonde, black, blue black (gothic look), red...all but green.
LSU play Tennessee in a very important game tomorrow afternoon. (Hence I made the hair appt early) Then I made reservations at my favorite place The Market for tomorrow night. I am taking the professor there..as we met a month ago tomorrow. WOW~ it seems like it has been longer. I hope that is a good sign.
Sunday my SAINTS play Tampa Bay in another really big game. WE NEED to win this one!!!!!
Tonight, Reagan wants me to go to a college basketball game with him tonight. I am not a basketball fan at all. I said no last night , but figured I should change my mind today.
We'll talk about Romeo tomorrow. I have seen him 2 days in a row.
OK most of you know about my buddy T. He was like an older brother with whom I spent 2-3 days a week with---shopping and dining out. He found the love of his life over Fourth of July weekend. I have seen him twice since July. I was really hurt to begin with. My friend Angel said I was acting like a scorned lover...Well she called last night and left me a few messages on my cell phone. She says well I guess I have been kicked to the curb by you and T. She said she was so upset with T. He found out 10 days ago she might have to have surgery and he just called yesterday. He said he's just been busy. She said to me are you going to leave me too?
Why do people forget about their friends when they start a new relationship?I just don't understand.
On my mind today......
Feeling kinda *unsure* about things today. Nothing has changed, I am just wondering about the whole commitment issue.
Well, I was a few minutes late to work this morning. I was sooooo sleepy. To begin with I am NOT a morning person...but the house was cool, the bed was warm....and damn I was comfy! I hit snooze five times. I have to get in bed earlier. How many hours a night do you like to sleep?
ok, MY 'DETAILS" as requested by BarnGoddess.
Last week R had both of his girls here for the weekend and thru Thanksgiving. They were adorable, I might add. We did alot of stuff together. Fantasy in Lights, Drag race, Dinner at Olive Garden, a Mexican place here and pizza with my aunt..(all of us).
Well, Thanksgiving day we drove to Hattisburg to drop the girls off at their mom's (his ex-wife). I got to meet the ex. They were married 11 years, right out of high school. I liked her! Really, I felt like if we had met under any other circumstances...we would be friends. She was really sweet and I thought she was cute. She is remarried and has 2 step kids as well. I also met her hubby. He wasn't what I expected.
My parents picked me up in Hattisburg that afternoon. (they met very briefly)I spent the night with them and he stayed at his parents.
Friday, he drove to my parents house and we went to the French Quarter for the day. He put up with my shopping! (BIG SCORE THERE). We strolled down Royal street, ate lunch on Bourbon Street and shopped in the French Market. We walked along the river walk and took pictures. Most importantly, he went to St. Louis Cathedral with me. OK this is a big deal because---as you know he has commitment issues---and he knows this is the church I have always dreamed about getting married in--It is the heart of Jackson Square and simply exquisite with the stained glass and murals on the ceiling.
We also went to the Piano bar at Pat Obriens and had a few drinks. He enjoyed that!
That evening we went to Metairie (suburb) and met one of my best friends AMY. We shopped at the mall there and he found his girls some Christmas gifts. He also helped me shop at Lane Bryant. We all 3 of us went to ACME Oyster house and had a YUMMY meal! Shrimp po-boys , grilled bbq'd and fried. We shared a chocolate caramel SINFUL slice of pie. Can I say OMG????
We went back and stayed at my parents for the night. Mom made us a great breakfast. She made Eggs Golden Rod. Again YUM!
We headed back to Ga, but stopped at the Outlet mall in Gulfport Miss. He found some Rock Port shoes and I found a Lane Bryant Outlet. He also brought me into a jewelry store. He wanted to see what I liked and showed me the wedding band he would like to have. I was a bit shocked but overjoyed in the same. I bought a few jackets. We drove on to Mobile and found an incredible Oyster place for a late lunch--it was 4:00 by now. We made it back to my house about 10:30 and watched the end of the IRON bowl.
Sunday he built us a fire in my fireplace....He also made a red sauce with smoked sausage and stuffed pasta with cheese. We watched the Saints win an actual game...we took a nap...built another fire...and he gave me feedback on the power point presentation I have to give in about an hour and a half.
First of all....I wanna wish all my blog friends a HAPPY Thanksgiving! May you all have plenty to eat, love around you and happiness inside of you!
Second, wanted everyone to make sure to read the Dear Abby post from 2 days ago. I got it from one of the secretaries at school. It made me smile.
Third, I did some shopping for Christmas at the PX today. I found it it is the 3rd largest in the world, here at Fort Benning. I spents lots of money---I don't have...but 85% was on Christmas Gifts. I did buy myself the Daughtry CD, Lancome eyeliner, lancome eye makeup remover and Vera Wang's newer scent PRINCESS.
How can I slam on the breaks of from serious like to love? I refuse to get my heart pushed into a meat crusher and come out in the form of ground round.
He surprised me by calling last night after he taught his class and said just wanted to warn you I am about 2 minutes from your house. I threw on a tyedye t-shirt and shorts. I looked like bloody hell. He stood at the door with both of his daughters and a bouquet of flowers. It was so sweet. ...they stay about an hour and he danced around my living room with both girls. It was too cute!!!! Today he brought the girls over to meet my aunt and we all went out to dinner. His girls are adorable!!!!!!!!!
These made me smile, I hope they do the same for you!
My class was cancelled last night, so I went over to R's place. We ended up going to Fantasy in Lights at Callaway Gardens. We took the girls and the trolley through it. I had a great time!
I need your prayers. I really want this one to work out.
He has commitment issues, so send him positive vibes please!
I mean wow. I have't felt this way in a L-O-N-G time.
It helps that today, I know I have the rest of the week off. The new PX at Fort Benning opens tomorrow and it's HUGE. I get to go shopping again!!! I love to shop!!!!
I am going to go crazy, I can feel it already. Just imagine a discount Dillards!!!!!
OK, give me more ideas for a Christmas gift for R. I know of a couple of things I am getting...a shirt and a Cd he wants, but I want to get something else a bit more personal. Any suggestions??????
Dear Abby,
I am a crack dealer in Beaumont, Texas who has recently been diagnosed as a carrier of HIV visus. My parents live in Fort Worth and one of my sisters, who lives in Pflugerville, is married to a transvestite.
My father and mother have recently been arrested for growing and selling marijuana. They are financially dependent on my other two sisters, who are prostitutes in Dallas.
I have two brothers, one is currrently serving a non-parole life sentence at Huntsville for the murder of a teenage boy in 1994. My other brother is currently in jail awaiting charges of sexual misconduct with his three children.
I have recently become engaged to marry a former prostitute who lives in Longview, she is a part time "working girl. "
All things considered, my problem is this. I love my fiance and look forward to bringing her into the family. I certainly want to be totally open and honest with her.
Should I tell her about my cousin who supports Hillary Clinton for president?
My football team lost.
I have to go to work today.
I need to clean house.
I have more college work to do.
I need money and a maid.
Here's hoping the professor turns out to be the genuine article! I can deal with a few abnormalities....
I went to a Staff Development seminar today. It was alright actually. I was blessed with L and H that I work with----two of my favorite people. The topic was geared to English---which is my field.
She let us out an hour earlier than if I had gone to school. I hopped into my car and went to the professor's house. He took the day off cause he was feeling crappy. She let us go at 3 and I knew he had a doc appt--they worked him in this morning. So I got there just in time to drive him to his doc's appointment. He invited me to the back for the doc visit, which shocked me. I was expecting to sit in the waiting room. SERIOUSLY~
He said I earned major brownie points for being so thoughtful. = )
He's so hard headed. He went and taught his night class tonight. But he's not going in tomorrow. He's packing, resting and then driving to get his girl's tomorrow night. We're going to dinner on his way out. He wanted to skip rush hour traffic.
Sunday he is (making me go) to a drag race that lasts most of the day. The four of us are going...it should be interesting. At least for me. I have never been to one....Pray for me! (See my city gal roots are coming out)!!!!!!Suggestions? I plan to put on jeans and tennis shoes. (I am missing the SAINTS Game for this) Can you tell now I really like him???????
Hey Hey
It's Tuesday. I am taking a break from sorting progress reports. They go out this afternoon. We have Professional Development tomorrow. So I also have to get lesson plans together today for who ever shows up sub wise for me tomorrow. It's just a whirlwind of a week.
I am thinking happy thoughts of the Professor though. I am hopeful. I hope I have the right to feel that way!
Hi ya'll. It has been a busy weekend for me. I have really slacked in blogger visits and in blogger posts. I apologize cause I really miss your comments when I am away.
Today is Veteran's Day observed and I am off from work, but have class at the college tonight. I debated on going, but I need to save an off day for when I really need it and not when i'm just feeling lazy!
OK just a start of my weekend. Friday, I left work and came home with no plans. About 30 minutes after I got here, by doorbell rang. Romeo showed up. I haven't seen or talked to him in a few weeks even though we live across the street from each other. HE came in and started telling me about the Greg Allman concert last weekend. He said how I should have gone because his girlfriend only knew a couple of the songs. Well, if you guys remember I asked him to go and he flat out said no, he had other plans. Well, my phone rings and I have Direct Tv--so the caller is displayed on my television. It's Reagan and wants to know if we can go to dinner somewhere. Of course I said yes but that I needed to get dressed and paint my face...he said he'd come over. Well, R is sitting across from me and listened to out entire conversation and plans we have covering the next few weekends...So when we hung up he gave me some ?????? about all of this. I told him a few complimentary things about the Professor. He seemed a bit taken back. I told him over again, you and I talked about dating and our timing is just off, and you seem pretty content about your g'friend..so what's up? He said well you never know how things will work out. I just don't know ..Well next thing you know he says there is a car in your driveway. Professor made it here in like 10 minutes. R jumped up and said do you want me to go get the door for you. Ya'll he was nervous. HELL, I was nervous! Professor looked good! He was in a coat and tie....I was impressed. They introduced themselves and I stood there in my living room a tad bit uncomfortable. They talked cars cause Prof has a fully loaded decked out Mustang that really is sweet. Bill left and I know when he pulled up all weekend he saw his car over here. I am just wondering if he is having second thoughts now?????
Comments on any of this????
I am wishing it was Friday! Meow Meow Meow
R called tonight I swear we can talk about lots of stuff.....and it is never a 20 minute convo...
I am taking my antibiotics..and right now feeling kinda drowsy. I need to go crash.
If you could have 5 things right now what would they be??????
See ya'll, I don't want much!!
Well....my weekend was busy. How about yours???
Reagan is the professor. He has quite the resume. He came over Sat afternoon to watch the LSU Bama football game. LSU won!!!! I was pleased! = } I put out 2 trays of munchies....fresh broccoli, carrots, and cheese cubes. Also, some crackers and dip. We had great conversation and are very open with each other on topics. He is easy to be with! We snuggled up on the love seat for the game and for the movie Night at the Museum.
He came back Sunday afternoon and cooked me dinner! He brought over fresh shrimp, tomato, squash, and zucchini. He sauteed the veggies in olive oil and added them to a Alfredo sauce with pasta. It was yummy! I was impressed. Ladies, he even did the dishes!
Yesterday was a bit odd though. His Ex was head of West Minister at the local college where he teaches and where I attend. They had a reception after church yesterday with First Presbyterian where I have attended and where my aunt is a prominent member. Well, his ex came into town for this event and actually had a few words as a short presentation. My aunt went to check her out. Reagan was going to go but wasn't up for the "social engagement". So my aunt gave me a complete description. I have only seen one picture. I was indifferent. She's tall, no make up, but pretty and quite bright. She was also very active in the community.
When we left this morning, my back tire was really low...he took out his gage and then actually had an automatic tire pump and inflated...hooked it up and my car got me to work safely. He could come in quite handy.
I'm smitten but also feeling really guarded after a convo we had at 2:00a.m. We have moved so incredibly fast...I mean we met for dinner Wed and had only talked on line for a week before hand. We spent damn near the whole weekend together.
I'm sleepy.
It's FRIDAY!!! WAHOOOOOO Can I scream any louder??????? My kiddies at work have lost their minds and I am soon to follow.
Well, I am feeling kinda good today. I had an Internet date last night. I think it went really well. We stayed at the restaurant 3 1/2 hours just talking. He is working on his Ph.D. He is a professor at a local college and has recently applied at Auburn. He'll find out in March.
He's attractive....from a small town in Mississippi and enjoys cars. He's divorced and has two girls...They are still in Miss. So his hometown is about an hour from my parents. It's a small world. I enjoyed the conversation and look forward to another date. Wish me luck.
I am not getting my heart set.....but he certainly has several of the qualities that I want in a mate. So we'll just wait and see....
Back to work I go. I get kids in 20 minutes....
After all of the chemotherapy, surgery and daily radiation my mom endured until very recently...please ladies check yourself and visit your doc yearly for his testing!!!!!!
Thanks!
Well....wanting public opinion for a friend. For my bloggers that are married what was your wedding song? For those of you not married just yet---what 3 songs would you want played at your wedding???
Thanks..may this Wed truly have a HUMP of happiness shoved into it!!!!
I heard "Our Lips are Sealed" on the radio this morning and I can't get it out of my head.
Finally you are getting to see some of my birthday concert pics. I love this fella!!!!
AMEN . Yes, I said AMEN.
It is finally Friday. I have to do a couple of things but nothing compared to what I did last Friday night. I'm a bit ready to relax, and by God I deserve it!
I do have a couple of projects to work on for my class at the college..but other than that...I am free as a bird to sleep late, love on my kitties and watch football. There are several SEC games tomorrow and My Saints play Atlanta Sunday at 1:00. I got TONS of grief from my Atlanta Falcons fans at school. So my boys have to represent as my kids would say this Sunday!
I am currently munching on Doritos and a couple of cheese cubes left over from the luncheon. I brought home a really yummy squash casserole for dinner from school today. I refuse to cook.
Hope all is well in your world.
OK FINALLY I added my pics to kodak easy share. I did have 293 of them. So I will slowly share them with ya'll over the next week or so...I mean I figured 300 of them you'd rather not have on one post...besides you need to see something in between all of my complaints RIGHT?????
This was my centerpiece for out luncheon last weekend. Fresh cut flower blooms, a few rocks and water. They were nice floating!
This was one of the place settings. I wish I had taken a good picture of my Goblets. They are crystal etched Fleur De Lis glasses. I found them at the hospital gift shop when my mom had surgery about 6 months ago.
Looking at this pic, I wished I had opened the blinds just a bit. Oh well.
One of the best parts was desert! A chocolate DOBERGE cake from New Orleans...Gambino's bakery. 
Why does chocolate have to taste so damn good????
My random thoughts today:
MONDAYS SUCK!
Ok now that I have that off of my chest. I am not a morning person. YUK.
My SAINTS finally won a game!!! WAHOOOOO!!!!!!! It was a good game against Seattle Seahawks~~~
The weekend went well. The luncheon was a hit. I have people asking for recipes! My Fleur De Lis Goblets (crystal etched ) were a hit...and my red beans, my brushetta shrimp any my tomato basil soup--it is so rich. Things went well, i got compliments on everything it seemed. The silver, my house, my wood floors, my decor and most importantly the food. I assure you no one left hungry! = )
Not to mention after all of that work my house is spotless, and I refuse to clean anything besides dishes and laundry for 2 weeks.
I took a few pics--not many but I will share sometime this week.
No make up news to share today...besides MAKE UP SURE HELPS ME FEEL BETTER !!!!
Well, finally it is Friday!!! This has been a long and busy week for me! I am thankful it is finally almost over!! One of the teachers I work with has had a hard time adjusting to the new school. So her kids made her cards earlier in the week and today they are throwing her a surprise party. They brought chips, dip, ice cream, cupcakes and coca cola....They are going to get her in the bathroom to surprise her as they set up the room.
I am almost finished with planning my menu for tomorrow afternoons party at my house. I have 6 teachers coming over. Tell me what you think about food choices....
Appetizers:
Shrimp Brushetta ( Individual Garlic toast with Brushetta sauce, a fresh shrimp, and fresh basil)
Paula Deens Cucumber/Dill dip/dressing with pretzels
An assortment of cheese slices with crackers
Meal:
First off everyone gets Tomato Basil soup with Parmesan croutons and Asia go cheese sprinkled
Second, They get a choice between New Orleans Red Beans and Rice
OR
Chicken Ambassador--which is chicken stuffed with spinach and cream cheese along with a sweet potato casserole
Dessert: is a DOBERGE cake from New Orleans or a Vanilla creme filled Almond Croissant from New Orleans
Drinks: Red or white wine, tea or a mixed drink of choice.
Your comments REALLY ??? BE kind or not. I will not be insulted!!!
I am a bit bummed that I haven't had many comments as of late. *sad face* = + (
I skipped class last night and went shopping for a new tv stand for my other bedroom that I am trying to redecorate. I finally found one for 100 bucks at Big Lots. Well, Angel drove me around in her dad's truck until we found something. Well, I called Romeo across the street and got his voice mail. He called me back about ten minutes later. I asked him to meet me at my house and help us unload this HEAVY box from her truck. Sure enough he came over, helped us carry this in and he put it together! I spent 2 1/2 hours. He is so sweet and funny. I really like him. I made it clear that he is never home. He spends so much time at the girlfriends house. *sigh*
He met Angel for the first time. He had her laughing in stitches. He does just enough to flirt with me....She thought he was cute and fun to be with. I REALLY wish he was single!
Well, how does your world feel today?
This is what LSU was serving as they played against Fla this evening. It was a hell of a game! I mean WOW. Back and forth and I really enjoyed each quarter.....I love my football!!!!
Now if Only My SAINTS can provide the same sort of stamina tomorrow against Carolina. 
It's Saturday...I don't have any kids!!!!! Wahoooooo
Sorry it has been a hectic week. I am happy to have some peace and quiet.
I do have TONS I mean TONS of stuff to do at home. I bought a new coffee and end tables last weekend and I am waiting for the Ashley to deliver them. I have dishes to do, a dishwasher to unload....bills to pay, laundry to do, boxes to consolidate...garbage to throw out. Can I tell you tons of shit! I need a maid here with me today, preferably one that locks like Matthew Mc or Keith Urban or Alec Baldwin...in a pair of shorts and a duster....I don't want much.
OK, so my day went alright. ........
I made it through the day okay. I decided to work when I got home. I am in the process of resorting and decluttering one of my bedrooms---that I have forever called the "cat room". It houses their food, treats, toys and litter boxes. It also holds 7 or 8 boxes of stuff along with my treadmill, an entertainment center and a TV....It did hold my DVDs and my old cassettes (yes, people I am that ancient when it comes to my music) You are lucky I didn't say vinyl.
I was sorting through and mind you managed to ditch 2 garbage bags full of stuff...my door bell rings~ I look to see whose car is here...no car. So I throw my school clothes back on and find Romeo at my door. I feel like I looked like crap as I had my hair up and feeling in the declutter mood. He comes in and say you don't have any light s on...well, Yes I do...but there on in the back bedroom because I am working in there....So he decides to make it clear he came for a visit. So i go in the living room, put my stuff down and turn on a light. Our conversations go well. His grandmother just found out she has cancer in her lymph nodes. She is 83 so he's a bit concerned even though they don't have the best relationship. The girlfriend is still in the picture. I enjoy his company---but I would have finished those boxes if he hadn't made it over here. Oh well. He was here 2 1/2 hours. He just left.
I'm going to grab a bite of dinner and shower......
Will my timing ever be right?
I feel like a damn cow today.
"Flo" is here visiting for starters....
Ok, I had my aunt over here last night she wanted to type some stuff for a family reunion in a week. She doesn't know her way around Microsoft Word, so she comes here for help. Well, I was attempting to change a vacuum bag out last night and she came in to help...so she decides as I am sitting on the floor and rummaging through a box of stuff...to flip the switch for the vacuum. Well EVERYTHING flies out as I have the bag 1/2 way off...I have the worst head ache sinus ache known to man today.
Second, I don't dream frequently but i woke up SCREAMING this morning at 4 a.m. from a dream. It was awful.
Third, I woke up twice with a charlie horse in my calf twice..apparently before and after the dream. I got up at 8a.m. and ate a banana, knowing the potassium is supposed to help. I have another for tomorrow morning......Any other suggestions from those of you who had had a cramp in the calf???My leg is so sore today.
I got up and got out of the house hoping to get my mind off of things...my head ache my weary body from lack of GOOD sleep and a ache in my calf. I went all over! Target, Lazy-Boy, Rooms to GO, Ashley Furniture, and Big lots. I bought a new coffee table and end pieces from Ashley.
I have a 4th bedroom that I call the Cat room...as I use it for storage, kitty stuff, a bike and my treadmill. I am probably getting a cat door installed tomorrow from my laundry area to my garage so kitties can eat and dump out there..My only concern is when I leave in a morning and my garage door opens. My kitties are inside kitties.....a fear of one of them getting out and getting hurt. IDEAS?????
