Teenager in the House!

Thirteen years ago today I gave birth to my very first child. A girl. I named her Chelsea.

As each day goes by I can see her maturing, and I wonder what her future holds.

Today is hard for me because not only am I the mother of a teen, I know that my own mom, who if she were still with us, would be so proud to see her first grandbaby grow into a beautiful young woman.

(with her friend)

I love you, my girl! Happy Birthday!

She Calls Herself a LADY??

We have a radio at work and we listen to the same station every day. We all like the same music, thank goodness. However, this particular radio station plays the same songs pretty much over and over throughout the day and some of them drive me nuts.

Lady GAGA for instance?? She is a freak, and that is me being nice. Calling her a freak! Because I tell you what, worse things come to mind.

Who in the hell is requesting this crap day in and day out? I want to meet one of her fans. So I can slap the crap out of them!

Take for instance her song, BAD ROMANCE. I hate it. Plain and simple. I was told if I thought the song was wierd that I should watch the video. Which I just did. Holy moley...

Here are the lyrics...my comments in red.

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (I am already grimacing when it starts!)

If that was not bad enough, watch the video. I am sticking stakes in my eyeballs now! Yuck!

If I could just throw it out....

Shannon of "Welcome to the Nuthouse" is hosting Table Topics Tuesdays and this week's discussion is :

What possession of your spouse's/significant other's would you most like to throw away?



As most of you know, I am not married, so I will go with 'significant other' here. I do have a boyfriend and at my age, I am not really sure if that is what I should refer to him as...manfriend? Anyhow, on to the topic at hand.

There are several things of my 'significant other's' that I would love to throw away. So I have mentioned only a few.

Firstly, his music collection. I absolutely hate it. He loves high energy, DJ mixed type music. I am not a fan. Give me my rock 'n roll!

Next, it would have to be that disgusting spit cup. Yes! He dips. Skoal. I can deal with it to an extent, but do not leave your gross cup with the paper towel soaked Skoal fragranced saliva in it, hanging around for all to gag over.

Last but certainly not least, those black slip on tennis shoe type loafers with the picture of a white skull on them. They are old and falling apart and you have worn them all that they are worth. And then some. Plus, you are 43, it's time to 'dress' your age!

Despite all that, I love ya babe!

Musical Monday- Lady Antebellum

This is my new favorite song and I hope you like it too!

Why don't you join me on Musical Monday?

Missing my sweetheart this weekend while he is working out of town. Hurry back!

This Is How We Party

I just had a 4 day weekend. Boy, was it nice! One of those days off was because of Mardi Gras. That would be FAT TUESDAY for those who do not know. The last day before lent. In my opinion, it's yet another excuse for a bunch of idiots to get drunk and act crazy, but whatever.

I went to two parades and neither one of them impressed me much. Years ago there were tons of floats and lots of partying, but both parades were pretty small this time. Maybe it was because the temps were only in the low 50's and us southern people are more accustomed to 70 degree humid weather.

In 'real' English this float would read Crew of More Fun. Yeah, I come from a very distinguished state that prides itself on proper English....Who Dat? Mmmm, hmmmm!

I was trying to get a good shot of the horses and these 'mardi gras revelers', but as you can see there, homey on the left is trying to wave at me? Flirt with me? Maybe pick me up? Or is he is just drunk? Whatever the case may be...he scares me. If I disappear, put this photo on "America's Most Wanted"!

Happy Lent!

Snap To It!

For those of you who 'fussed' at me for not posting any photos after I told you about my new camera, I would like to direct you all to my other blog. Now, I have had it for a while, and I horribly neglected it over the last few months, but I am bringing her back to life!





Some of you already 'follow' me and maybe a few of you do not even know about it. Now is the time to jump on over and check out some of my work and let me know what you think. Any constructive criticism, ideas, hints, tips or photos you would like to see, are all welcome!

When you get there, don't forget to FOLLOW me, if you don't already!...and Snap to it!
