It's been about a month since we've done anything constructive to my new pad. BUT last night we hung this golden treasure mirror. We found this little gem at an estate sale. And it only seemed right to take a few pictures of ourselves. Rolling in this crowd makes for lots of pictures and home decor :) Its summertime so we find it necessary to be outdoors, btw....my little garden is flourishing. Pics to come after this weekend’s addition. Can’t wait to finalize my little 4x4 garden. Impressed? I am.
....was released May 17, 2010 and I FORGOT!!! LCD Soundsystem has just released an album that may be the best album of the year.....go get it people!!!
LCD Soundsystem - Dance Yrself Clean
Anyway: Hello there friends, let's talk updates:
let's see......Jaxson started baseball (Coach pitch). First practice. He had a challenging time, he was a little ahead of his teammates (if you know what I mean, in the nicest way possible Jax is just an athlete) PS. there goes my dream of a rockstar :). Unfortunately at this age ALL kids participate. And I believe whole heartedly that they should, however, before starting a sport I beg of parents: play catch with your child once or twice. And that's all I have to say about that. There will be pictures and more to come on this topic (full season to start June 5th)
3 day weekend to come. YES!!! You see, I ran out of paid vacation time in January and it won't start over until September. So I LONG for these longer weekends. Jax will be with his dad (sad face) but I plan on doing some yard work, car cleaning, thrift shopping and farmer's marketing. Plus start my summer tan!!! "Like a golden fleece....."
Had a nice lunch with ma lady Ashley at Wohlner's Grocery Store in Aksarben yesterday. People!! they have awesome sandwiches and a patio to dine at! Try it, it's pretty fresh :)
and I'll leave you with this (I need to get this kid in hip hop classes) This is Jax at Chel's wedding break dancin' for the ladies!!!!:
I recieved this in a forwarded email today and felt the need to share:
1. I think part of a best friend's job should be to immediately clear your computer history if you die. 2. Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you're wrong. 3. I totally take back all those times I didn't want to nap when I was younger. 4. There is great need for a sarcasm font. 5. How the heck are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet? 6. Was learning cursive really necessary? 7. Map Quest really needs to start their directions on #5. I'm pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood. 8. Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the person died. 9. I can't remember the last time I wasn't at least kind of tired. 10. Bad decisions make good stories. 11. You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at work when you know that you just aren't going to do anything productive for the rest of the day. 12. Can we all just agree to ignore whatever comes after Blue Ray? I don't want to have to restart my collection...again. 13. I'm always slightly terrified when I exit out of Word and it asks me if I want to save any changes to my ten-page research paper that I swear I did not make any changes to. 14. "Do not machine wash or tumble dry" means I will never wash this - ever. 15. I hate when I just miss a call by the last ring (Hello? Hello? Dang it!), but when I immediately call back, it rings nine times and goes to voicemail. What did you do after I didn't answer? Drop the phone and run away? 16. I hate leaving my house confident and looking good and then not seeing anyone of importance the entire day. What a waste. 17. I keep some people's phone numbers in my phone just so I know not to answer when they call. 18. I think the freezer deserves a light as well. 19. I disagree with Kay Jewelers. I would bet on any given Friday or Saturday night more kisses begin with Miller Lite than Kay. 20. I wish Google Maps had an "Avoid Ghetto" routing option. 21. Sometimes, I'll watch a movie that I watched when I was younger and suddenly realize I had no idea what the heck was going on when I first saw it. 22. I would rather try to carry 10 plastic grocery bags in each hand than take 2 trips to bring my groceries in. 23. The only time I look forward to a red light is when I'm trying to finish a text. 24. I have a hard time deciphering the fine line between boredom and hunger. 25. How many times is it appropriate to say "What?" before you just nod and smile because you still didn't hear or understand a word they said? 26. I love the sense of camaraderie when an entire line of cars team up to prevent an ass from cutting in at the front. Stay strong, brothers and sisters! 27. Shirts get dirty. Underwear gets dirty. Pants? Pants never get dirty, and you can wear them forever. 28. Is it just me or do high school kids get dumber & dumber every year? 29. There's no worse feeling than that millisecond you're sure you are going to die after leaning your chair back a little too far. 30. As a driver I hate pedestrians, and as a pedestrian I hate drivers, but no matter what the mode of transportation, I always hate cyclists. 31. Sometimes I'll look down at my watch 3 consecutive times and still not know what time it is.
I related to each of these....giggles all day.... Happy Monday!!! Song: Meiko-Piano Song
There is a thing called being SICK and that's been me for the past 3 days. Does it automatically come with age that the illness last longer or have I just not been taking care of myself?? Either way, I've been bed ridden for the past 2 days and my boyfriend snuck these pictures of how I accomplished sleeping through sunshine, lawns being mowed and barking dogs. (btw, all of my neighbors are GROUNDED). They are grounded from doing any of the above listed things for the next week so I can sleep through the day.
guess two things are at point. 1) I need to work a little bit on proper diet, exercise and all around health for myself so that sleeping off sickness durning a summer day won't happen. People mowing, dogs barking and sunshine is all the goodness this city has needed after a winter we just had. 2) Do Churches still have bells that they ring at important times of the day?? YEP, the one right up the street from where I live......
i woke up this morning in a wee funk due to a 101 fever. But I’m at work, sitting quietly in my corner office hoping to pass this day by with A. no one knowing I’m sick and B. hopefully out of complete misery with Motrin, vitamins and lots of juice to help pass this illness. It’s just aches, pains and a burnin’ fever that gives me chills. My body just can’t decide: hot or cold.
So to brighten my day and maybe yours here’s a peek at “oh so pretty things”
Pretty Drink StandPretty Wall paper Pretty Rad tattoos (which I will share soon my new piece to come. EXCITED) Pretty Swimming suit Pretty Awesome Hair, make-up and glasses
Today starts a summer of weddings I offhandedly RSVP'ed too. Let the dancin' begin. I have my request sheet ready as well as my camera. Chelsea and Rob start this summer wedding fest:
For this, my first day of attendee I'm prepared: OUTFIT!!! for myself and Jax (pics to come)
Oh mighty school PlayDay. Jaxson was the Farmer......And the set of the farm scene.
Jaxson had one line: "the pigs are feeling hungry" and he did a great jod! Mighty Mighty school Play. I think I sat in my chair with a big ol' goofy smile on my face the whole time :) His art work of a farm sceen was choosen to be on the cover of the program as well.....couldn't be more proud.
Song of the Day: another Jaxson Favorite: The Xx-Intro
My Planting as of lately: I need more rock (obviously) and mulch! So a continued project for sure.....But my duplex is really looking more out of trouble. Fancy (maybe be no big deal to the greener thumbs out there but for me it's my first so it's fair to use fancy). Just wait until these flowers spread, it will be total tops!!! And I got the OK to paint my front door, so off to select a blue of beauty :)
I had a weekend of flowers. These were my mother's day vegetation.....Fancy(er)? Song of the day: Cocorosie- K-Hole
I've thought about some other ways I'd like to spend my $$, if paying bills wasn't a thing:
miles of hair mega eyelashes naps, lots of naps. in a room with open windows and rain poring outside Surface to Air, anything any basic from American Apparel, love for the kiddo too trips to the places I want to take the kiddo to (American History is where I want to start and then work out of the States) gym membership (just in case I feel like it) DVR many more pairs of sunglasses, like a house, with a fence for a dog, like (name would be something way better than lauren, how about Hexe, Blur, Robo??) Lot's of grown up furniture. I'd have to go on an antique road trip to acquire all the furniture I would need. (this also goes back to the house thing, a house to fit my furniture) Park time with a frizbee and last but not least boat. I'd like a boat.
Friday Dreaming, right?? Song of this dream day: Doomtree "Drumsticks"(and to add to the list bike rides like these dudes in this video)
Charolette: Model/singer/girlfriend to John Lennon's youngest son Sean. I adore her style and her life. I mean a true beauty with a hot famous bf plus she can sing. Their band (her and Sean) the ghost of a saber toothed tiger. Wow, she made it.....
She gets a double stamp of approval and shhhhhhh I'm a huge fan and that may be an understatement....More to come on her, her boyfriend and their music. And MORE PICS!!!!
Song of the Day: the ghost of a saber toothed tiger--Britney Jean (her and her boyfriends band)
It seems I can't go shopping without seeing something with a mustache on it.They are everywhere! And my Boyfriend has one that I had to trim this weekend (well I trimed his neck line, he trimmed his beard/mustache).....aw, right???
and welcome to Sequel, where I write of my mommy times, style, life happenings, not so current events, music (and my bias opinions on music I like or don't), faith, family, friends and hopefully more (but not bad) f-words. Thanks for stopping by--
