Thirteen Random Things to Catch Up On!
1. I am meeting with another great blogger today, Jennifer of Happy at Home! I’m so excited! Of course I will have pictures and an update after our lunch!
2. Bubba has a new job!! We are so excited! It is with a great company and it is a sweet job with some great perks! They will provide him with a car, gas card (they even cover his personal use gas what a great perk, especially in this day!), a laptop, palm pilot, his meals when he travels, everything! He is working for a sports memorabilia company, right up his alley! It was an answer to pray, he was not happy with his current job, it was not a very pleasant atmosphere to work in.
3. Miss Priss was interviewed by a Washington D.C. reporter! The reporter had read on my blog that Miss Priss was not attending her prom, and she was doing an article on teens who chose not go to prom. She contacted me and asked if she could talk to my daughter, I felt ok with it and so did Miss Priss. When the article comes out, I’ll let you know!
4. If you haven’t guessed by now, I love flowers…..so here’s another picture of a rose I took while visiting with Big D’s grandmother in East Texas:
Pretty isn’t it?
5. My oldest step-brother is planning a camping trip with all the family for sometime in June. I haven’t been camping in over 25 years!! But we are looking at places that have condos/cabins….so the term camping may not really apply. LOL But we will be fishing, boating, hiking and all those fun things! We are really looking forward to it!
6. While we were in Texas I was able to get some real Tex-Mex food!! Man I miss that! Georgia just does not have good Mexican food…not at all!!
7. On my flight home on Monday, there were obnoxious drunk people on board the plane. Apparently they were going to a work related seminar. One woman was quite sauced, I don’t think she impressed her boss to much, as she made advances to him in a loud giggly schoolgirl kinda way. I’m guessing that she’s going to regret the five drinks she kept bragging about! I know she irritated the fire outta me!
8. Miss Priss got her Senior Portraits last week…..here’s just a couple of them….doesn’t she look beautiful!
9. And here is another one….
10. I can’t believe my baby is graduating high school!! Look at her….she’s no longer a little girl, but a beautiful woman! Lord help me!
11. I have been watching American Idol now all season and I honestly think Paula needs to enter rehab! Goodness that woman is in need of some serious intervention! She is a train wreck! It’s really embarrassing to watch her…I actually feel sorry for her. Also, I’m so glad Kelly was sent home…her “I’m just a little country hick” act was getting so old!
12. Just another TV tidbit that is bugging me… is anyone else sad to see 7th Heaven go off the air? It’s one of the only good wholesome shows on TV still and of course it’s gotta go *insert sarcasm*!
13. And last but not least, just one more picture I took while on the road while traveling from East Texas to Dallas…..

I COMPLETELY understand about the good Tex-Mex… I can’t find it here in Kentucky either… Guess that’s one of the reasons I have to go home every year…
Happy Thursday, my TT is up as well…

People under the influence of alcohol shouldn’t be allowed to board and they certainly shouldnt sell it on board the plane. There’s my strong view for today

said:
So sad to see 7th Heaven Go. I am a fan and like you said it is one of the few wholesome programs on. I also agree about AI-little Kellie needed to say farewell. Your daughter’s senior pics turned out great. I know you must be happy. Congrats to Bubba! You do have one of the most beautiful blogs out there-love the flower photos!
said:
How wonderful that you are getting to meet a friend…I know you are really excited. Oh, I whole-heartedly agree with you…your daughter is truly beautiful! It is kinda sad in a way when they grow up, I think.
said:
Hi, this is my first time visiting your blog, and I must say… I LOVE your template color.
Your daughter is, indeed, a beautiful young lady. My daughter is eleven, all the closer to the teen years. I look forward to watching her bloom into womanhood, while being a bundle of nerves about it as well.
As for Paula on AI, yeah… she’s quite embarrassing. My hubby said, during last Tuesdays show, “I think Paula needs to have her meds changed.” That about sums it up, eh?
Have a terrific Thursday! Thanks for sharing.
