If you aint first, you're last

OK, so I married a guy a lot like Fred Sandford. If someone is getting rid of anything, my husband will say, "Oh, I'll take it."
I have more crap in the garage & basement that I have no idea what we're supposed to do with it.

His boss was throwing away his kid's Razor Ground Force Go Kart. Of course Joe said, "Oooooh! Will would like that. I'll take it."

As leary as I was about letting my baaayyyybeeee ride on this tiny death-machine, I agreed to let him ride as long as he had a helmet & Joe was to supervise at all times.

He charged up the battery, bought Will a shiny red helmet and out they went to the alley.

My kid is a smaller version of Ricky Bobby. He likes to go fast.

Merry Christmas

From our house to yours......

May your days be merry and bright.

Will is a BIG Phillies Fan

He LOVES watching the games with me. He knows all the players!

Let's go PHILLIES!!

Like bringing a knife to a gun fight.

My husband thought it would be funny to give the kids water pistols so that they could squirt Mommy. Yeah, 'cause I can't HEAR him outside telling them how to fill the guns, showing Will how to pull the trigger, and telling them to wait at the front of his truck for me to come around the side of the trailer so that they could "GET ME"!!!

The Ambush.

Return Fire.

COVER MEEEE!!!!!!

So like my kids. Bringing a water-pistol to a HOSE fight.

I Win.

They know me so well.....

Tomorrow is my 44th birthday. Yay me.

The ladies that I work with know me too well. So far, I've received 3 bottles of my favorite wine, an apple crumb pie, and a bunch of gerbera daisies.

I love these people.

What Happens In Vegas.....

Joe is jetting his way to "Sin-City" right now. His friend, Bob, has stage 3 liver cancer. He's done the chemo thing and he's scheduled for surgery on June 12th. Las Vegas with his buddies is on his "bucket-list".

Joe's not a gambler, so he has trips to the Hoover Dam (I've asked him to bring the kids a DAM rock & some Dam water), The Grand Canyon & maybe (if he can find the balls) Skydiving. Him & one of the other guys might drive to L.A. to see the Phils play the Dodgers. Personally, I think thats a silly idea. He can see the Phillies play here and get PAID for it while working in the dugout.

I hope they have a great time and that Bob can break the bank and LIVE to spend it all on his wife & son.

Have a Light Heart

I'm a long-time stalk...ummmmm reader of Chookooloonks. Every Thursday she posts a gorgeous picture of something that reminds her of Love and invites her readers to do the same. I've always wanted to participate, but really? Who wants to see a picture of my kids every week?

The little rip in a lace panel on my kitchen curtain is transformed into a Heart of Light.
