Thursday Thirteen #106 - Random Ramblings
  1. It’s random again, because…well, because. lol
  2. D has finished his Master’s! Graduation is a week from Friday! I’m so very proud of him! luv It hasn’t been easy, he is a husband, a father, a provider and got his Master’s with a 4.0…now that’s my hero!
  3. It’s been so freakin’ hot here, so far over 100° every day!! The heat index, 105° let me tell you people, that is hot! Even our pool temp is in the 90’s!
  4. I had a doctor’s appointment this week. One of those well woman check ups… roll I look forward to those like the plaque. I ended up getting a tetanus shot since it’s been ten years since my last, my arm is so dang sore!
  5. Now I have date with the dermatologist for a biopsy for a spot found on my breast…of course, the soonest they could get me in was the first week in September. Nice to keep me waiting. roll
  6. I’ve been using the website GoodReads lately (Thanks Stacy!) and love it! It’s a wonderful way to keep track of your library and find new books to read! If you use GoodReads, add me as a friend, if you don’t, sign up and then add me! )
  7. D and I are planning a “mini” vacation after his graduation. We can’t do what we really wanted because he has business trips scheduled before and after the time we can go. shrug We can’t decide where to go though since we will only have six days, leaving on a Tuesday and being back on Sunday. Any suggestions?
  8. Are you into Giveaways? Pensieve has been doing giveaways all week, head over there when you are done here of course and get in on the action!
  9. I need a housekeeper….( I know random, but that’s the name of the list! ) ) So not in the mood to clean house! mad
  10. I cannot believe that July is almost over! shock Is it me or is time just flying by?
  11. I did something I haven’t done in ages, worked on a jigsaw puzzle! ) As a kid my grandmother and I use to do them all the time! I missed that, so I started one today!
  12. We finally got some rain!!! mrgreen Though being under thunderstorm warnings aren’t cool. thumbsdown
  13. And finally a photo to share….

Thursday Thirteen #105 - It’s Random!

  1. It’s been HOT here, 100° and over days…so hot that when you are outside it’s like when you open the oven door. I hate that kind of hot. We haven’t even gone swimming, don’t want to get out of the A/C! )  
  2. My niece is staying with us this week. She’s a hoot! If there is another “Jonas Brother’s” fan that’s bigger than her, I’d have to meet them to believe it! roll
  3. Speaking of, they are moving to this area, last Sunday her and my sister were in Wallyworld and she recognized their mom and little brother from the back of their heads!! shock Long story short, a very kind cashier took her up to the mom and asked if she could have her picture made with her. Their mom was very nice and my niece has been on cloud 9 since. That group moving to this area is HUGE news and I mean it’s on the nightly news daily! roll
  4. WEDDING NEWS: Brandon and Brit have finally booked a location for the wedding and reception!! party It’s taken a lot of looking and brainstorming, but they finally found a beautiful golf course that meets all the requirements! It’s exciting to knock that off the check list!
  5. South Texas is getting pounded by Hurricane (now Tropical Storm) Dolly. If you have never been in a hurricane, you are lucky! My introduction to Texas in ‘83 was Hurricane Alicia in South Texas. It was fierce, scary, and I don’t want to ever experience that again! Tornadoes ripping just feet away from the house….flooding….no electricity…no water for days…it was a nightmare! My heart goes out to everyone in South Texas right now!
  6. I had a huge moment this week, maybe it won’t seem huge to some, but for me it was HUGE! I killed a snake! Yes, I KILLED A SNAKE! Now you have to understand, I have had a snake phobia all my life, even to the point that I couldn’t even watch them on TV. This snake which I even took photos of to prove that one was in the pool wasn’t huge, but big enough for me to break out in a sweat and repeat “ohmigosh” over and over again in a high pitch voice! embarrassed  I managed to get it out with a big hoe, and proceeded to go all Jason (my weak Friday the 13th reference) on it! It was bird food when I was finished with it! mrgreen

  7. I got a new camera lens this week!! I am so excited and haven’t quit playing with it! It’s a Canon telephoto 75-300 mm and I’m loving it! My next lens will be a macro lens! Photography is so addicting and I am addicted!
  8. Here are some of the photos I’ve taken with my new lens (I’m tired and outta of random things to post ) ) so enjoy!
