The concert last night was wonderful! O.A.R. always put on a great show! But we got home WAY past our bedtime. And I don't function well on too little sleep. Without enough sleep I am cranky, and tired, and cold. So today, I decided to be comfortable and wear some of my favorite things! Fuzzy...

Yeah..I'm freaking out today. I take my first Calculus Exam this afternoon. I know I know…I should have WAY more of the course done and should be taking my final today. But I'm not.

I haven't done a post on the house next door in a while. They have been working on the inside so much that I haven't been thinking about making updates. They finished siding the house and did some painting. I think the peaks (the triangles at the top) might still be a different color. They...

Yesterday we finally got around to finishing the landscaping in the yard. We just needed a bit more mulch and to remove a little dirt in one area. It didn't take too long and we were then able to bring our trailer to storage instead of leaving it in the driveway. I am sure we...

1. Snow Leopard on my Macbook 2. Rollerblading to the pool for a quick swim 3. Pizza buffets…with pasta 4. Touring houses for sale in the neighborhood 5. Vests (It's been chilly outside the last couple days and I got to take out my vests! I love Fall!)

I have a multitude of cartoon comics on my iPhone that I downloaded. They are meant to be for backgrounds on your phone. I have been “collecting” them. I say it that way because I have this bad habit of needing to own a collection if I buy the first one. Books, DVDs (which I...
