Face Lift!

I'm soooooooo excited! My blog is getting a facelift! Or maybe that's a header-lift. Or a header-change? In any case, my blog will have a new look shortly and I just can't wait. My girlfriend Elysa's awesome and talented sister-in-law Stephanie at That Girl Designz did it for me. Wait till you see it! You'll say "Yep! That looks about right!"

Another GREAT Book!

If you've not yet read this book, READ IT. It's awesome. Totally likeable characters and also some annoying characters that we all recognize. (You know, the people in your life that often leave you with your mouth hanging open and thinking "WHAT???Did she really just say that? How can she think that's ok?" )The author has a GREAT writing style. She had me within 2 pages. This book is not a romance novel.(which, in my opinion, is the first great thing about it.) It's about real life issues of a mom with "affluenza" who learns having it all means giving it all away. Check it out.

Everything...

Uh-huh. Don't you just love Michael Buble?

Thanks!

Ok,today it is winter again. Thank you , Lord! Let's get back to business, shall we?

Could I get some cheese to go with this?

OK. I'm tired. Someone has been sick in this house for about 4 or 5 weeks now. I'm ready for a little breather. And yes, I know some people never get better and some people don't have any children and some people don't have a home and on and on and on. I know. I'm not saying I have it so tough, I'm just saying I'm tired.

And could we get a cool breeze here? It's January. Why am I sweating?

Winter on the Lake

Although it's crazy cold here (21 degrees!) today, I'm happy to report that our backyard birds have not gone south. Or maybe I should say "more South". Souther? In any case, out my window today are about 7 goldfinches, a few Carolina Chickadess and our Cardinal. I'd take a picture, but none of our cameras work.

FINALLY....WINTER!!!!

Winter has finally arrived in Mississippi. It is presently 35 degrees. 27 with the Wind Chill. See, it really is winter! Winter winter, not just "southern winter". Tonight the temp is supposed to drop down to 21 degrees. YIKES! I know some of you living up North just shrug that off, but we could all die down here. We are delicate, now! Fragile, delicate southern belles, dadgummit! Thankfully I've not forgotten how to dress for this weather, so I'm good. I hope the rest of my friends figure it out, because I'm sure not going outside to tell 'em. And no, this is not a picture of our lake. It isn't snowing. But I can dream, can't I?
