Best Man and Bridesmaid...Part 2



Ok, since I can't get you 2 together at one time for a pic, this will have to work until April...when the more formal pics get taken.

You both know how I feel about you already...and when 1/3 is gone...this is what I do so that 3/3=1 whole. I just go into withdrawals when ya'll aren't with me!!
Demented?
Maybe...but OH SO MUCH FUN!!!
Everyone should have as much fun as we do when we are all together...the world would be a happier place then!
Muah babes!!
Love,
TT

Happy Labor Day!

Happy Labor Day ya'll!

We don't have any plans for the day except staying home and cleaning house, doing laundry, etc.
I am glued to the computer until I get it to where it was before Wednesday. I am almost there. I just have to add in all my favorites...and OMG there are alot! That's ok though, I got the pictures...that's all I was worried about!
{STILL on cloud 9 about that...don't be laughing at me either!}

I do need to give a holler out to my favorite high school teacher...just in case he googles me. Happy Birthday Mr. Hoff! I never forget your birthday...just forget to send a card!

Tomorrow is Kim's birthday. Yes, all of us know that it's each other's birthday's this early in the month. When Kim and I were in high school, I had Mr. Hoff for homeroom, so we all celebrated together before school started. Good times, I tell ya. That seems like yesterday but in fact was 20 years ago. My how time flies when you are having fun!

And tomorrow...MARK IT DOWN...School starts!!!! I can hardly wait to get back into the routine. Early bedtimes, quiet nights, and yes...rough mornings. Thank goodness for Momma's quiet time to prepare for all of that.

I'll have to remember to pick Erik up on my way home...he'll have football practice after school now. Games are on Tuesdays and Thursdays...so that means TT will be late to the poker table those days...but I'll be there!

Not much else going on for the week besides getting into that routine for school. And the most important part of that...Lunch at Spike's on Tuesdays with no kids even! $2 Cheeseburgers with chips and pickles! YUM!!

Happy Monday and have a MAHVELOUS day! Muah's!

Thank You!

I just wanted to give thanks to everyone who made my day special.

I am truly blessed by a great family that served me up some DQ Ice Cream Cake with M&M's even. I got a Large bag of Peanut M&M's (my absolute FAV!) and a card from the kids and Tommy. My sister in law gave me a cute little M&M notebook and a little clip on M&M calendar...so cute!
I got a beautiful bouquet of flowers from Tiffany on Friday, as well as a web cam, phone minutes and a card. I also received some awesome birthday messages on my MySpace. Totally made my day ya'll!! I did get a few phone calls too...and some im's and messages. I am truly blessed with people that care about me...and I love you all!

I do have more presents coming on Tuesday...I'll let ya know when I get them! But the best present...is that I can access my pics to post on here! Thanks again my V-Man! You truly are the Best Man hon!

37

Well it's official. I am 37 years old today. I don't feel any different, but yet I think I should. It's funny because every year I think that just because I am older, I should "feel" different. I couldn't even tell you how old I was when I first thought that...16 maybe 18? Too long ago I know.

What have I learned in 37 years? Plenty, but yet not enough. Everyday I learn something new and everyday I thirst for more knowledge. I love to be educated but sometimes my stubborness and impatience gets in the way of my learning. That's what I learned this weekend.

You see, my hard drive crashed on me. And being the "get it done now" kinda girl that I am, I was too impatient to take it in and have it fixed. Nope, I'll do it myself I said. And I'll do it in a day and it better not take more than a couple hours. Yeah, right. I was soon schooled and humbled at the same time.

I learned that I don't know it all like I think I should. That when you think something should be easy like the box says, it's not always the case. I was brought down a few notches off of my high horse when I had to call on a friend to bail me out. After I installed my new hard drive, I couldn't find my other hard drive with all my pictures on it. I was in a panic...bullistically so too as those pictures are my life and my kids' lives. Those are the memories I'll be passing on to future generations and by far the most important thing on my computer. I can't tell you what it meant to me to recover them. Words will never express the elation that I felt. I'm still on cloud 9 this morning. And I'm still humbled by the friend that helped me. A friend that has in fact, become my hero. I couldn't have done it without you my friend. I will be forever grateful. And I just can't thank you enough. There just aren't enough words to express my gratitude. But I'm sure you heard it when I screamed in your ear. Sorry about that, and THANK YOU!

So on this Sunday, September 2, 2007, I'll be updating my computer all day. That's my present.
And I'm grateful for that, on this day, my 37th birthday.

And a special "HOLLA" out to Tiffany...Thanks babes for my webcam, my card, my phone minutes, and the beautiful flowers that you gave me. But most importantly, thank you for being there for me and for being a friend. I truly couldn't have survived this challenging week without you. See you in 1 month, 29 days babes!

Have a great Sunday ya'll and a great rest of your Labor Day weekend! Muah!
