I have had a crazy week and a half or so. Last weekend my youngest brother, Nick, married his fiancee, Laura, in a little ceremony at her grandma's house. The first festivity was on Friday, 6/19, and Mom and I met Laura and her mom for breakfast at Circle G. Since I called it a non-diet day, I had the special. I had livermush, grits, two over ( Read more... )

Long time no post. A lot of interesting things happened this summer, but I was just too exhausted and overstimulated to write about any of it. My brother Nate and his family visited, and it was super crazy with them here.

I don't fall right back asleep after taking her out at night like I do when I get up to use the bathroom. She's only gotten up once a night the past two nights though.

I got up every two hours with her, and that isn't counting all the times I had to ( Read more... )

I went to pick strawberries today. It was fun, but I'm hot and tired. I came home with a gallon of them, but since my family is getting in from Korea tonight, I don't think the strawberries will last very long. I also bought strawberry jelly, and I ate some on a pretzel roll when I got home just to make sure I get some since I bought it. I'm ( Read more... )

We currently have two extra kittens around that we need to find homes for. Mom rescued them out of a storm sewer yesterday during her bike ride. They are really tiny. The black female is a polydactyl cat, and she's playful and also the healthier of the two. She hissed and swatted at Dixie last night for coming over and trying to drink the ( Read more... )
