So Many Things Today

Today I have so much to say and some cool things to show you as well, for I just realized what today is.

{A very special Happy Birthday today goes out to a very special set of twins. They are 17 this year...I hope you have a very Happy Birthday. Those of you closest to me, know the story behind this. Enough said.}

More Concert News!

This will be the Summer of Hotties! Neil Diamond will tour the US this summer...now I will HAVE to fly to Minneapolis for THAT show...that's a family tradition! Get ready mom, this year you're going too!! He's still hot for being in his 60's too!


Some photos of George using Adobe Photoshop Elements to alter them a bit.

The first is the original.

I think this is the Neon one...I like a Blue George! Reminds me of his album BLUE!

And George...if I printed this out on my Bazzill paper, this is what it would look like, kinda sorta. YUM!

And if we painted this photo on a brick wall...man, he's still HOT!! Don't make me paint this on my bedroom wall...cause I am sure I could do that! (I'm thinking I might have to purchase this software...this could be alot of fun if I knew what I was doing!)

Tickets go on sale next week!

I'm so stalking the Ticketmaster website!

Happy Thursday everyone! Have a great day!

Love,

TT

P.S....One more week and the Great Ashel Dashel Ding Dong turns 18!!! Let the countdown begin!! (Where IS my dad when I need him?)

Farewell To Thee...HELLO GEORGE!!

Well, today I am Lowe's-less.
Yep, I quit yesterday.

While I'm not usually a quitter, they insisted on messing with my family life, so they had to go.
I didn't have any qualms about that decision either, as we can do this with one income for a bit.

I will pound the pavement and mail out resume's by Monday at the latest though. I do like to get out of the house sometimes...and I like to keep my sanity that way!

On a happier note, GEORGE IS COMING!!!

Yep, the concert dates for the USA were announced yesterday!

You can find all the details here:

While you're there, sit back and listen to some good tunage!
Now my big decision is...do I attend the Minneapolis show (July 7) or the Atlanta show (July 31)? I think I will try to talk Tess into coming here and going to the Atlanta show. Then we can get a hotel room too! I'll update you more on that later as it transpires.
Tickets go on sale April 6 to the general public.

Did I say I hate my new computer? Well, not the new computer itself, but Vista as a whole...SUCKS! I want my XP!! {Where is that song when I need it...I Want My MTV?}
I will have to get the $60 together to have Dude get all my stuff off the other hard drive. This really sucks having to load it all back up into a new system...who has time for that anyway??


Puppy Picture Updated--Blondie

Bubba and Peanut {A.K.A. Peanut and M&M}

Monique and Gabryelle...in the Fort That Trump Built.

I swear these 2 are Freaks! They built a fort outside from the table, an umbrella, some shelves and miscellaneous textiles. Gotta love Mo in her jammies...and Gabby with a towel around her shorts. They are definitely my girls...we all have a style all our own!

Happy Tuesday...and to each your own Freak!

Love,

Puppy Update

Chubby and Blondie snuggling....
This gives a new meaning to "DOGPILE"...Blondie on top of Chubbie and Diamond on the side.

All three puppies are trying to walk this week. And Chubbie has both eyes open and Diamond has her left eye open...and Blondie is pullin' for third place with her eyes!

38 days until the big Wedding....and 36 until we go to Minnesota!

And the living room is almost normal now...until we bring in the boxes from the porch. Them puppies will be out there in 2 weeks...so I do have a deadline!

Blondie is sold for sure...and we plan on selling the other 2 as well. Then the next litter, will be the last, and we'll keep one out of that litter. Hopefully they'll give me a chocolate one.

Happy Hump Day!
Love,
TT

Catch Up

March 4, 2008


The puppies were born. It was an experience for all of us. 7 were birthed, 3 lived. This was Peanut and Midnight's first litter and both did very well for first timers. Chubby was first born, then Blondie, and then Diamond was number 4. The number 3 puppy died in the night.




Chubby--Male--First born Diamond--Female--Fourth born Blondie--Female--Second born

Tommy, Erik and Gabby came to visit. Gabby is staying and having a great time catching up with her sisters. She'll start school tomorrow. We took Tom and Erik to the Atlanta airport today. What a mess that is. Glad I don't drive that everyday!



They had fun as well and already have a list of projects they want to work on when they come back in June for good. Both of them loved the house and the property and can't wait to be here for good.

They got alot of projects done in the 2 days they were here to visit. They fixed the dog kennel, put up the mailbox, burned the leaves and garbage, unloaded the trailer and chopped wood up. Not bad for only being here a couple of days.

Now he just has to bring the rest of our stuff. He didn't think he'd need a bigger truck. But then if he woulda packed only what was NOT garage sale, he woulda had enough room. But Momma is happy, she's got her Scrappy Stuff...and what's more important than that?? NADA!!

Ooooo....and I got my Pampered Chef Stoneware...no more burning the food in this damn gas stove! I swear it's of kilter or something! (I don't usually burn my suppers now...I DO have witnesses!). AND a toaster too!

Tom just called...they landed safe and sound.

Have a great night and I'll update more tomorrow morning!

Love,
