I almost cried when my favorite tree hit the ground ;(



* Literally.... this was my favorite tree. We built our home around this tree. This tree was the biggest tree on our property. Unfortunately, it was standing where our pool will be ;( I hated to do it. But, there was no way around it. If we would have left it standing, it would have been a nuisance on the pool. I guess we could have built a lazy river around it, but I didn't see that being very practical.


* The guys doing our porch have managed to put a hole in our living room ceiling. Apparently the jack slipped while they were in the attic. Fortunately, Kip and his crew seem to be very honest down to earth people and will fix it before they finish the job.


* Day 2 of them there... I hear glass crashing to the floor in my dining area. One guy accidentally lifted a bored to far above his head, the results of which sent one of our globes from our chandelier above our table to the floor. No biggie, except we bought that chandelier because we loved it so much, but they have now been discontinued. Trey aren't normal clear globes. They are tan globes with white something-or-others in it.... Not sure how to explain it but I think I might have a hard time finding a new one.


* It could have been worse.


* I'm ready for shade in the back yard. This summer heat and no covered porch is wearing me out.


* I'm excited about our new additions to our house. I know pools are expensive and are a pain, but we have always wanted to be able to do what we are doing.


* We are very fortunate to be able to have what we have today. God has blessed us so much with great jobs, great neighbors and great family.


* Oh yeh, and I'm glad it is Friday. Now I gotta get to work on some documents for a closing this afternoon.


peace

FRIDAY!!



* New Trailer for Dexter Season 6. I LOVE this show. I've been watching since Season 1.
* I also like Shameless It's a must see. I can't wait for Season 2.
* I will have to wait till October for those two shows.
* If anybody forgot I am a HUGE fan of Big Brother! I have the app, I watch Big Brother After Dark while I work out, it's ridiculous. This year they brought back Jeff and Jordan, my favorite duo. Unfortunately they also brought back Brendon and Rachel, who make me want to vomit in my mouth and scratch my eyes out. Rachel's voice makes me cringe. I. cant. stand. her.
* She won HOH last night. Kill me now. This week is going to suck with her prancing around the house. BARF!
* So... I smashed my middle finger in our shop door and I'm pretty sure there is no hope for my nail. It's black, it hurts and it's probably going to fall off.
* I have decided designing and deciding on a in ground pool is almost as complicated as building a house. You would think it would be a piece of cake. It's not.
* Oh, and take a Xanex before asking the cost to build one. Your going to need it.
* Sometimes it's just easier to go with my husbands opinion because if I don't he will use the next few hours analyzing as to why we need to do it his way. I'm not bitching, it's just an observation.
* I'm glad it is Friday, but man oh man, we's gots a lot of work to do around the house.
* I'll try and post pics of the backyard as they develop.
peace.

Wednesday What Ups!!

So... I know everyone under the sun is talking about Casey Anthony trial and how she was found NOT guilty. I have to say, I was shocked! Now she will walk free and clear of any wrong doing for that poor child. I understand the jurors point of view in regards to the state evidence. There was no cause of death ruled and mostly the prosecutions case was that Casey Anthony is a lying no good shitty mother. You can't convict people of first degree murder because they are a scum bag. I want to know why she wasn't charged with dumping the body, but then again there was no really proof of that either. Point blank we have another OJ on our hands. Whether that child's death was intentional or an accident she tried to cover up, Casey Anthony still did wrong in handling it and should be punished for more than lying to a cop.

... Anyways, I gotta quit talking about that case, it's irritating.

* I hate getting up and working out in the morning, but really once I actually get up and get dressed, it's not so bad at all.
* I'm ready for another vacation.
* Patio furniture is ridiculously expensive. I could probably by a new kitchen table and chairs for what it's going to costs to get a nice set for outside!
* I always find myself longing for the weekend, but I love my job.
* My favorite apps on my Iphone is Words With Friends, Hanging With Friends and Zombie Farm. I like the news apps too, but that's just cause I'm a news freak.
* I wish I knew how to speak Spanish.
* I'm kind of getting sick of facebook, but I catch myself checking it several times a day.
* Something weird: The last month I keep getting blisters on my feet from running. First it was the back of my heels on both feet, then that healed and a few weeks later I got blister on the inside of the side of my foot. I got them on both feet exact same spot. (pic below)
* I could barely walk Saturday because of the pain. It was dried up by Sunday and I was good to go when I worked out this morning, although it's still red.
I just bought brand new Nikes, so that can't be the problem. WHAT TO DO??


RIP Ryan Dunn

Ok, so it's a little late, but he was my favorite Jackass.




I can only hope they were dead on impact. But, at 130-140 mph, really what do you expect. It was bound to happen at that rate of speed.
