Random Question







You're cutting your toe nails and one decides to make a break for it. It shoots from the nail clippers, flies across the room and disappears.... 

Do you go look for it or do you leave it for a nice surprise for someone else to discover some day soon?

Music Videos, Chocolate and Me

Ok, so I've had some complaints. Or, not really complaints, so much as whining...

"I miss your blogging."
":("
"Where are you?"
"I miss your humour."

Well...  seriously, of course you miss me, it's all part of my master plan, my "Make Them Love and Adore Me Forever" plan. What's that old saying? Absence makes the heart grow fonder. Or some such sh*t. It's true.  Missing me = Loving me.

Ermm....

Ok, so the actual truth. I've been in a bit of a funk. A "Sit on the Couch and Drown Myself in Tea and Chocolate" funk.

I know what you're thinking:

You want to drown yourself in chocolate too.



Well you can't, unless you're on my team, my "I Don't Gain Weight From Sweets" team. Because really, no one wants to see you sit on your ass and gain weight. No one. Those of you, however, that are as gifted as I, may join my team and attempt the drowning by chocolate. If you like. Just don't expect to look as good as I do while you're doing it. No point in setting yourself up for disappoinment...

Soooo... you can call something a funk if it actually only happened once, right? Like, for only a few hours?

I'm not making excuses for my lack of blogging at all.

I'm above excuses.

It's Monday, do you want a music video? Do you deserve a music video?

This is Angus and Julia Stone. Their songs make regular appearances on my playlists. In fact, I love them so much that sometimes they are the only old song in a shiny new mix. This is a video of one of my favorite songs, Wasted. Although this is not quite my favorite version of it, the video is pretty, and in their usual style, so I deemed it worthy.

Monday.......

Today started a little bit earlier then usual for me, 6:11am, it stared with a dog whining in my face that he needed to go out, and because he just had surgery on his eyelid a few days ago he is not allowed to just wander around outside by himself, he has to be on a leash and I have to take him for a walk, so up I got......

So, by 6:50am I had walked the dog, made lunches, loaded the dishwasher, & helped with hair (it's picture day for 2 of my kids). So, now it's 8:30am...all 3 kids have left for school, I've drank 2 cups of coffee, blogged, facebooked, now for the rest of the day, which will probably be cleaning......oh the fun.


This morning I thought I'd share a new video from Kings of Leon - Radioactive, their new song from their new album that comes out in October. Enjoy!!





Have a wonderful Monday!!!!

Oh Baby!!!!

My beautiful sister in law (I have a few beautiful sister in laws), but I'm talking about Desiree, she and her husband Sam are going to have their first baby near the end of the month (Sept.).



I'm sooooo excited, I've been in Des's life since she was 10 years old....kinda crazy that she is now going to have a baby, I know we all grow up....but like I always say, it's crazy how quickly time flies! Anyways, she is having a boy (another nephew for me)...I love my niece and nephews so much, they are like my own kids but I get to give them back when they cry or poop!!!! All this baby talk has made me reminisce about my own babies, births, etc. I'm so happy for her, life will never be the same, but in the best way possible. This lil' guy isn't born yet, but I'm already buying him things, thinking of buying him things, ordering things online for him,  knitting (actually crocheting) for him......I can hardly wait till he is born, I just want to snuggle and smell him (oh new baby smell) and tell him how much I love him already!!!!
