• Today’s been a really awesome day so far! Much like yesterday, I woke up between 3-4PM! Granted, I went to bed super late, but still. This whole catching up on sleep thing has really been feeling good. I need to do it more often.

• Maybe I should get on a regular schedule like most ‘normal’ people. Like go to bed at 11PM or something and then wake up in time to get the kids off to school. I suppose it’s worth a shot.

• Lonnie is insisting on being the music DJ today, but I’m sitting here in silence. Every time I mention wanting to hear music, he’s like, “Yeah, just give me a minute.” 25 minutes later, I’m still in silence!

• I just warned Lonnie that if he doesn’t play something within one minute, I’m taking over the Djing. He said, “I will. Just a second.” The timer is ticking.

• I spoke with my Dad yesterday….his 62nd birthday. He’s doing really well. He sounds to be in great spirits although he’s dreading winter coming. He lives in Minnesota. They get hella harsh winters there. He hates it. He’s like me - a hot weather kinda person. His girlfriend, Michelle, and him have threatened to move to Laughlin, Nevada a few times, but have yet to do so. I hope they will at some point so my Dad can stop being miserable every winter.

• I’m feeling SO hungry right now. Like I could eat a horse….and I don’t even eat beef or pork!  I guess that means it’s lemon concoction time. They say when you feel hungry, that’s when you drink a lemon cocktail thing. Soooo….that’s what I’m going to go do…my fourth one today.

• I just changed into something more comfortable. A night gown kinda thing that look likes exactly like THIS with undies that look like THESE…and although it’s SO not sexy, I’m wearing socks at the moment, too. My feet are so cold. Once Lonnie’s ready to finish working, the socks are history!     ;)

• I keep burping a lemon flavor. Sorry - I know that’s gross to hear…but even more gross to deal with.

• I’ve not been doing so well lately with some health issues (mostly my back/neck), but Lonnie has been just so terrific. It’s like he’s showing a new side of himself…the side I’ve been missing so much. He’s really attentive and helpful…and does anything he can to help me feel better. He rubbed Tiger Balm on my neck last night for over 1/2 hour. I normally just do it myself, but this time he insisted on doing it for me. I feel so babied lately. I’m not sure what’s caused the change in him, but I certainly hope it remains. I’m enjoying him so much.

• I’m starting to wonder how many boxes of Christmas cards I’m going to have to buy this year. I think it’s WONDERFUL that I have so many people to send them to. I get at least three new names/addresses every single day. I hope they keep coming…it makes me so happy to touch the lives of others. Even if it’s only through a card.

• My Mom laid a guilt trip on me earlier tonight. (she does that frequently) This time, I stood up to her! I’m very proud of myself.

• My daughter loves to sing. About two years ago, when we’d hear her sing, we’d do whatever we could to get away from the sound.   :lol:    Really nice, I know…but it was horrible. She was so tone deaf. Now that she’s been in choir, it has done wonders for her. Her voice is actually quite pretty now. No more tone deafness and she can really carry a tune. I’m so proud of her. She’s come such a long way…and you’d better believe that both Lonnie and I have made it very clear how proud we are!

• I made a batch of Chocolate Chip Cookies the day before yesterday. The entire batch lasted two hours. TWO. I guess they were good…although I wouldn’t personally know!

• Does anyone else watch Dr. 90210? I love that show, but wow…Dr. Rey. That guy has seriously got to learn how to dress. He looks like a freakin’ rainbow. I understand having your own style, and that’s great. But this guy wears every color in the rainbow and then some…all at the same time. If I were his wife, I’d be so embarrassed. I mean, I’d not love him less, but I wouldn’t want to be seen with the human Reading Rainbow everywhere I went, either. Oh well…they’re on the outs, anyway. She’s such a spoiled brat…they’re headed down the road to divorce. I hate to see that with any couple, but it’s been a long time in the making for these two.

• BTW - Dr. Rey’s wife, Haley, has the perfect body in my opinion. HERE’S a picture of her…the dress isn’t the most flattering, but still. Lonnie says she’s too skinny. I say her body is perfect. I’m so jealous…which, yes, I know, is quite the sinful way to be. Can’t help it!

• I’m so worried that we won’t get to see Lonnie’s grandparents again before they pass on. They’re both VERY old….and their health issues are getting worse and worse. We visited them one time and spent the night at their house. We had such a wonderful time with them. Their house was just lovely…their garden was to die for. Their dog, LadyBug, was even delightful. The thought of not getting to see them again saddens me deeply. When we pulled away from their house after our visit, I cried and cried. I immediately grew attached to them. The problem is that they’re in such horrible shape, it’s against their wishes to have visitors. They don’t want anyone to see them like this. I understand that, but just one last hug. That’s all I want. I know they’ll look horrible…I’m prepared for it as is Lonnie. All we want is one last physical connection with them. We’re going to try to get Lonnie’s Dad to talk them into it. I pray that it works.

• When I spoke to my Dad on the phone, he was bragging about his meeting with Alice Cooper again….and also his meeting with Ted Nugent. He was so stoked. They each autographed albums for my Dad. He said they were both just super nice guys. Hehe…is’s so cool to hear my Dad going off about something like a little kid. It warms my heart.

• I think my Mom and I are going to go shopping for Thanksgiving dinner either tomorrow or the next day. Oh joy. Don’t ya’ just dread that? All those people everywhere. :sigh:

• Well, I guess I’ll stop babbling for now. I’m in an exceptionally talkative mood right now for some reason. Maybe because I know that once Lonnie sees me all decked out in sexehness, he’ll get all excited and smooch me all over! I love his affection. He’s so gentle. Have a wonderful day/night, my lovely readers! You all mean the world to me!

Here’s what I made for my BFF,  Sarah and me.

It shouldn’t have taken me as long as it did.

I’m getting slow in my old age.    :roll:

Anyway, here is it…as usual you can click it to make it bigger.

(Don’t you wish other stuff worked like that, too?! haha)

So anyway, I love you so much, Sarah.

I wish we could really get a kazillion dollars

together and hang out, go shopping, ..etc! w00t!

Love You!

 

Gotta Have It!

While I was looking around on the Net, I came across an item that made me audibly go, “Awwwww!”  I honestly can’t even remember what brought me to the page I saw this thing on, but darn it…it’s just so cute.

It’s a coffee cup ring! I guess it could be a tea cup, too…but I prefer coffee, so that’s what I’m going with.  DOH! I just realized it’s sold out.   :cry:    Oh noooooo!

This is where I found it. Maybe if we (you and me) stalk the page enough, we’ll catch it right after they get a new shipment or something! I refuse to give up.   :D

Awww!

I never ever keep my toothbrushes on the counter due to germs and whatnot flying through the air, but when I saw this toothbrush holder, I was  like, “Awww! I want one!”

I should get one and put toothbrushes we never use in it.

It’s just so adorable…how could I not love it?! :D
