HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRODY!!!!!!

Today is Brody's 5th birthday! I know it sounds so cliche, but it really does seem like yesterday that he was born! I don't know where the time goes....

He was such a happy boy this morning! He couldn't stand seeing his birthday present sitting on the table, all wrapped up....he had to open it! It was an Alabama muscle shirt! He didn't think he was going to have anything because we had already given him his new 4-wheeler and football gear. So he was pleasantly surprised. He has cupcakes to share with his friends at school today. And Miss Tiffini is going to pick him up for lunch. Then I'm fixing his favorite tonight....pasketti! That would be spaghetti to you and me! :)

Little Brody 5 years ago today....

Brody now....

MY EYES, MY EYES!!!!!!

We tried to take our kids to the zoo on Friday for a nice little getaway....and we run upon this!!!!

Tribal?

So I log on to Foxnews this morning for my daily dose of "what's happening" in the world when the caption "Matthew McCougnahey goes "tribal" during delivery" catches my eye. Tribal?? I couldn't even bring myself to read it because I knew how stupid it was probably going to be. So instead I just shake my head and wonder if and when Hollywood and L.A. are going to fall off into the ocean?

Jessica Alba...

has lost her mind. Why does such a beautiful young lady have to be so out of touch with the truth? I was reading where she said her baby dreams and coos, and that's all sweet. Then she goes on to say that the baby is still young and hasn't seen enough of the world to understand all that stuff....she thinks her baby is "still connected to the other world". What the? These celebrities make my head hurt...

So it's not been as bad as I thought..

The training I've done is not as bad as I thought it would be...mainly because I actually get to do the exercises and not just listen to someone talk about it the whole time. Don't get me wrong, I would much rather be back home. But we have enjoyed ourselves. We ate Unlce Julio's last night, and it was very good. Then we went shopping at the Reston Towne Center and spent money in every store. NOT GOOD! :) But I did get some back to school shopping done. Gotta get back to class....break time is over.
Hope you all have a great day!

Travel woes...

If you're around me a lot, then you know the bad luck I have when travelling for work. Not once have I not been delayed or had a flight cancelled. It's just my luck. Well, today was no different. Our flight out to Atlanta was on time, even a few minutes early....as our female pilot so proudly proclaimed. They push us away from the terminal only to stop us....then Captain Lisa tells us that we have been delayed. Imagine that!!!!! So we have to sit in that cramped plane for 30 minutes. Oh, and please don't let me forget to tell you that our flight attendant is having hot flashes, claiming she's gonna need oxygen, and the air doesn't seem to be working. GREAT!!! That's all we need is to have our attendant pass out, and we would be delayed. But wait a minute, I can get up there and show everyone how to buckle their seat belt, point them to the exits, and show them how to put an oxygen mask on. If she passes out, we can buckle her in a seat and off we go. I know 30 minutes doesn't seem like a long time, but when you have no air, the attendant is going through menopause, and a loud .passenger across the aisle doesn't know how to talk low (I can tell you how many kids he has, where he works, what his performance appraisals said, etc..), it can seem like forever. But we finally got off and made it to Atlanta, where we were delayed another 30 minutes. SHOCKER!!! I can't tell you how glad I am to finally be in Virginia. I'm here for training on an accounting system, NOT FUN!!! I will be bored out of my gourd. Oh well....until next time.

ROAD TRIP!!!

Well, not really. I have to fly out to Virgina on Monday for work again. This time it's for training...bore me silly! And it's not like I'm going to NYC, where there is lots to do every night. Oh well, at least I hear that Vikki will be in VA also, so maybe me and Sandy (the lady going with me) can meet up with her one night for dinner. I'm gonna miss my kids and hubby! Just pray for safe flights and no delays....which I ALWAYS have...it never fails. Until next time....

I love to people watch!

I first want to say that I hope you all had a safe and wonderul 4th of July holiday! Ours was great, with lots of good food and fireworks!

Now, I am a sucker for people watching! It make me smile! I went to the Kenny Chesney concert in Nashville on Saturday night with a couple of friends. You get 40,000 plus in a football stadium, and you are bound to see all kinds of people. We seen a variety...let me tell you. Some of the people you have to wonder...did you actually look in the mirror and say "Yes, this is the look I'm going for"? Cause let me tell you, your mirror is LYING to you!!! You had 60 year olds dressed to work the stripper pole, grossly overweight ladies trying to squeeze into size 4 mini skirts, and men going shirtless that shouldn't be. But our favorite was the "mullet girls". Their hair was your typical mullet style. They were dressed as twins....blue tank top, pants that looked like they were 3 inches too short, and light blue crocs. Y'all, it was pitiful! But it gave us humor in the heat of the sun!

We enjoyed the concert a lot! We liked Keith Urban the best! There's just something about him...

I know, I know....

it's been a long time since I last blogged....AGAIN! I can't even begin to put into words how hectic the last two weeks have been at work. I miss my kids and husband. I've been at work for over 12 hours the last two days and working on close to 11 today. But at least I have the next four days off for the 4th of July holiday! Speaking of which, I hope everyone has a safe and fun holiday! This is short, but I'm tired and my brain is warped....
