City Slicker

I have been doing blog backgrounds to fill my time and learning photoshop elements.  The only thing is I tend to redo them 20 times to get it just right.  Easier to just upload them from Cutest Blog on the Block, but not nearly as entertaining.   A plus is that my background is original.  I have had a lot of fun and I might (MIGHT) do a few more St. Patrick's Day backgrounds to post so anyone can use them.  I would be flattered.  (even if they are ugly you all should indulge a friend.)  

I am reading again, ah the love of a good book.  I am feverishly reading Twilight.  A teen romance novel.  I am almost done with the first book, but there are three more so that should keep me busy and neglecting my responsibilities for another couple of weeks.   Have you read a good book lately (not THE good book) a good book.  Let me know what it was so I can continue to neglect my responsibilities and take my mind off of my mindless life right now.  

Mark is flying to Huntsville, Alabama on Tuesday for an interview. HUNTSVILLE!  You have to try your best to say it with a southern drawl.  My neighbor thinks it is funny that I might be moving to Alabama.  Now really, am I that much of a city girl?  Am I going to be a city slicker? I shutter to think I couldn't handle the simply life.

Lucky Saint Patrick's Day!

Ada you will love this... Madison loses her tooth yesterday on the way home from school.  I am so excited, I take a picture as soon as she gets out of the van and post it everywhere and email it to family.  I clean it off and put it in a zip lock (easier to find under the pillow, right?) and we tuck it under the pillow and we all, ALL fall asleep.   Madison wakes up at 5:30 AM and says to me, "I can't see if the tooth fairy left me anything". PANIC stricken.  I FORGOT THE TOOTH FAIRY JOB!  Okay this is my only job on earth.  I can't remember to exchange cash for a baby tooth. I send her to the couch and tell her it is too early that she has to try and go back to sleep.   I grab Marks elbow and he says to me, "it is only 5:30".  He was awake and heard her too.  We both lay in silence for 30 minutes hoping she falls asleep.  Funny thing is once we talked to each other thirty minutes later, both of us were in bed formulating a plan.  He wanted to sneak out our

NaNoWriMo & Supplies

What do you really need for NaNoWriMo?  I like using my Mac and Microsoft Word.  It is that plain and simple. A computer, text editing program and time will get you 50,000 words. Some people do hand write their novel during NaNoWriMo, or so I hear.  I know I will not hand write my novel. Then you have to count all those words. My fingers and hands can't do it.  It is painful to type at times but hand writing is more painful to me.  Plus, my procrastination side will never count handwritten words.  I started to write this blog many hours ago (now yesterday).  It also happens to be the weekend and my computer guy (by computer guy I mean my husband) decided to help me find some storage space on my hard drive today.  I would love a new Mac Book Pro but that is not in the budget and I really don't have time to learn a new computer days before NaNoWriMo. About a week ago I started to get start up memory warnings on my computer. Not what a girl wants to see two weeks before

Mohawk!

    Um, where to start?   I went away for the weekend with girlfriends to get some R & R and scrapbook.  Little did I know I was going to come home to a Mohawk.  GO RAYS!  I think Nathan is loving the attention that comes with such a dramatic do.   I really can't believe Mark did such a crazy thing.  I don't think anyone that saw Nathan at church could believe it either. For all you wondering, I love it and I will go away on another girls weekend.  It's not like he gave all the kids a mohawk.  The girls still have their lovely locks.
