  • Busy, busy, busy!

    Wrapping up the school year. Tonight was Miss Iz’s honors ceremony. She has been rocking a 3.8 all year! That’s my girl. Charlie’s honors ceremony is next. I think I had more time when they were babies!

  • Finished up my grandparents yard sale today! Tomorrow I can sleep! Yea!

  • What was I thinking?

     

     

    I mean really? a post every day?

    I should have done one or two quality posts a week.

    That would be far better then these measly little microblogs I’ve been doing, right?

    Well, maybe tomorrow I will do something of quality. I’m not holding my breath though.

    Something exciting around our house, this year we brought home a few frog eggs instead of frogs and now we have tiny tadpoles swimming and eating in our pond.

    Tomorrow Cooper and I are getting our morning glory seeds so we can plant them, better late then never.

    Until then I will leave you with a picture from morning glories past.

    Hey, did I mention that it is now my second day of 40 and I’m still feeling fine.

  • I made it!

    I’m 40. I had a half day of the meloncollies and then it was bring it on tiime! Here’s to the first day of my new adventure.

  • I tried… really I did.

    I tried to be happy and excited about turning 40…

    I did, but today for the first time I am feeling a bit glum.

     Hopefully I will work through it.

    My honey and some friends are taking me out to dinner tomorrow at one of the restaurants I really enjoy and I get a nice day just to veg, maybe go to a movie…

    I will get through this blue stage… I think I can, I think I can…

  • Closing up house

    I’ve been helping my parents, aunt, and uncle clear out my grandparents house today and yesterday.
    Yesterday when I got home at around 7, my hubby had dinner ready for me, I sat down when I walked in the door and almost fell asleep sitting at the table. I guess that’s what happens when you get up at three in the morning and then don’t take a nap all day. Let’s just say blogging wasn’t a priority at that point in my day… I beleive the order was food, shower, sleep!
    That’s okay though it was a good tired, we got so much done and it was fun, looking for treasure and uncovering stories. I discovered a few fun things about my grand parents too.
    I think I have enough to get two or three blogs out of it at least.
    Have you done something lately that has left you feeling acomplished?

    I am tired…

    Life is good.

  • Before I die I want to…

    1.bucket list :

     

    A list of things to do before you die. Comes from the term “kicked the bucket”.

     

    So…

    I believe I’ve mentioned that I’m coming up on FORTY… in fact in  less than a week now.

    Getting older has got me thinking about what I want to accomplish in my life, my bucket list.

     It occurs to me that I have never  actively tried to achieve the things on my list.

     Everything that I have on my list, that I’ve done, I’ve just kind of fallen into.

     :-S

     I am going to start working towards fulfilling my list.

     

    Isn’t that the point of the list in the first place? To TRY and fulfill it, to fulfill my life?

    Yes, I will share my list, but not now… I can get another post out of it!

    Are you actively pursuing the things on your Bucket List???
