what's been rollin around in my head

• Should I give in and do Facebook? Is my life lacking something sans Facebook? Eh, it'd probably just be another time waster like Pinterest. heehee which I <3
• As I keep running, the constant questions like "can I do X (fill in the blank) miles next week?" "Will I be able to do 13.1?" Grr I hate doubt and fear! I can do ALL things through Christ who strengthens me. Phillipians 4:13
• A prayer or two that's yet unanswered. I know you're there God. I'm still waaaaiiiiiiiiting..... 
• I hate when people wear their hoods (on hoodies) up on their domes on the indoors... yo, it's not raining up in here, up in here (Ang, that one's for you hee hee)
• So glad American Idol is baaaack - I love and hate Group Round... it always serves up some grrrreat entertainment, but I sometimes get frustrated that talented peeps get the boot because they get totally hosed in group picks. Anythewho, the best line of the show tonight was from the guy in M.I.T. and I quote: "Now I have a very very bad perspective towards cowboys. Even Dallas Cowboys. Freakin' cowboys."                                
• Cold weather makes Lyndy bring out the good ole electric blanket. Cat curled up with me the past couple of nights. Thinks she's on her throne. Yep, pretty much.
• Speaking of my cat... why did she see her reflection in the window tonight and proceed to hissing and growling....at herself? Dumb cat! 
• My parents are going on a marriage retreat this weekend with some church folk. I think that's cool! They've been hitched for 46 years. Awesome, right?!
• Remember me talkin bout growin out my hair? Um, this week...  on.my.nerves. What's funny though, a couple people have asked me if I had a fresh haircut. Hmm
• Sawyer will be here no later than Tuesday. I bought him a cute little John Deere onesie tonight on sale :-) I'm a good wonderful step aunt-in-law 
• Sheryl Crow sings about how a change'll do ya good. tap, tap Sheryl honey, I don't know about that... this change at my work is makin' me feel like a one legged man in a butt kickin contest, ya hear me? Bring me a weekend and bring it quick!  

February Photo a Day project PART 1

I follow a blog and you should, too... Tyla is quite the storyteller. Tyla's blog


She was talkin about a photo a day project and dude, I AM IN ! ! ! 

Thanks to Nest of Posies for the project. Gotta link ya to 'em cuz that's the thing we bloggers do. Gotta give credit where credit is due.

I have a dumb phone. (translation: Santa did NOT bring me an iPhone mainly because my Verizon upgrade eligibility happens Christmas 2012, poo!) So I'm not doing this here project via Instagram. I'm gonna post em in a regular post and also add a page over to the left along with the running log that I'm sure no one ever reads lol

Well, here goes nuthin... 

from my back porch 

our wedding rings on my Bible (Song of Solomon to be exact)

Riley didn't even know he was modeling for me  

I noticed this cute little old couple at the table beside us at Logan's... 
I love that the blue haired lady had her spiffy sneakers on 

 About to head to church, but the outfit I wore required a purse swap

For dinner tonight, our menu was: breaded ranch chicken, green beans, corn, and a healthy weight veggie medley with sugar snap peas, edamame, carrots, & black beans

So there ya have it. Gimme some feedback.

lemme catch ya up

It's nuthin too exciting, but here's what we've been up to the last few days...

Thursday night 

Cullen's last home game as an eighth grader.

 little bro & cousin Kerby cheering him on

Kerlandy liked watching the cheerleaders & playing with her Barbie 
a bit more than watching the game 

Friday Anthony was off so I sent him to Walmart. He loves doing the grocery shopping. What a blessing! So we had a kinda low key date night and just went to dinner. 

Saturday morning I rolled outta bed to do my 3 mile run before a certain little cutie pie came to play... 

we did a puzzle, played with cars & action figures, threw ball, there was hide & go seek, um pretty much whatever Riley wants to do we do

He laid his well endowed dark haired head 

on Anthony's bald head to "give him some hair"

He loves to go to the first landing of the stairs and throw ball. This time the game was played with one of Tinsley's balls and we bounced it on each step.

I asked him what his favorite thing is at preschool and he said "just that I'm learnin." Wow.
When Mom arrived to pick him up the lip instantly pooched out. Aw, it's sweet to be loved. So as he was getting ready to leave I said Riley, why don't you just come live with me & Anthony and be OUR boy instead of Mom's? He turned to his mom and said Mom, what do you think? Lol I didn't expect that one. 


Saturday night we went out to dinner with my inlaws. When we got back to their house, we spent a couple hours just visiting. No tv, just chatting. I love when they tell stories about their younger years.

Matty - my mother-in-law's cat

can you say spoiled?

Today we visited a church near my work that a few people I know attend. It wasn't our cup of tea if ya know what I mean. Eh, oh well. 

And I'll just admit, the best part of the Super Bowl for me is all the commercials. Entertaining? Yeah. The game? Not so much.

I think my fave was the Honda commercial with Matthew Broderick... a modern day Ferris Bueller parody <3 it
