journal entry. . . .

Been journaling a lot here lately! I'm becoming that girl with the smudge of ink on her hand again ♥

I knew I always liked Grease!

cashed out and headed to castaways to see an old band mate 25 dollars down ! But meal was 22.19 (in comps!). . . so we did good!

Garlic Butter

my latest addiction! I always get like several of these when I get pizza, and then use it to cook with other items. . . it's that bad : D

Three Days of Photos! Friday Sat and Sundays

Melody just noticing my new decorations on the wall .. .
they have been there about a week or so
But they are pictures from a calender to remind me of the good times I had in Paris!
oh I can't wait to go back . . . and maybe take my Melody with me!!!
A girl can dream!

Wrapped around daddy's pinky finger!

No home is complete with out the pitter patter of kitty's feet! : D gotta love the kitty fur too on Bert's shirt LOL kinda annoys me in the photo but oh well!

Scratch that off the list!

♥ Climb on a jungle-gym! One of my 50 things to do before summer is over . . . well, yesterday I did alot of thinking on this one. . . I think I am going to do this today! Climb it and read a good book!

All dressed up and no where to go : (

I am still disappointed as I write this a day late but posting it for the actual date Monday July 23. We didn't get to go to beach trip because we called it with the 30 percent chance of rain. Gotta love living in a rainy city! : (

Nails for beach trip!

Working on scratching two things possibly three things off my 50 things to do before
summer is over list with a friend of mine today : D
1) Buy a big floppy hat ♥
2) Go to the beach & build a sand-castle ♥
3) Find a new spot on Dauphin Island and Get Lost in a good book! ♥
and the good book I got was The Notebook. Call me old fashioned, but I haven't read it yet, or even watched the movie!
As you can see by these photos, I have gotten the white floppy hat, the notebook, sun screen, and I'm ready to go to the beach to build sand castles!

^^^ this picture was taken today, as I am writing this blog a day behind again!
vvvv this bottom picture was taken yesterday for yesterdays photo of the day!

My snuggle buddies . . . so sweet!

Melody and Itty!

Friday July 20th, also day 202 of 366

Last Call Rodeo cds have been made to pass out to local bars ect. for bookings! Bert and I have done a lot of let work the past few days on passing cds out!!! Now we seriously need to get some band photos done and put a cover on that cd!! What do you guys think?!?!? Let us hear what your ideas are!!!! For an Album cover! We'd love to hear them!!!

a little under the weather. . . .

Bert took this photo for me yesterday.
He made this dessert, and I only ate a few bites. . .
I've been under some stress and just finally got me all at once.
So, here is today's photo!

I had also taken this photo as well, because I promise from here on out to remember to focus. . . that one little word I chose! And really force myself to get creative and to honestly pour myself into the rest of this project!

Day 200 / 366!

I hadn't had a a glass of wine and enjoyed it in a long time, so I treated myself. Bert and I sat around and relaxed, thus the idea of the tea light candles! So, we treated ourselves to the project life making it to day 200!

199 photos down 166 to go! Then 366!

199 photos down, 166 left to go! That's something to smile about! Oh and it's the little things, Bert got me these socks today! Just to make me smile ♥ Gosh I love him! And I love him mainly because he has stuck by myside through another year of Project 366. I've made this year a little easier, and just taken the project life side of Project 366. However, I miss my creativity. I miss it in my writing as well. So, for the last 166 photos, I'm really going to try to bring out some real creativeness to them! I've gotten 199 photos. However, I knew I could do this, but I want to be creative again like I was in 2010! The year isn't over yet!!! Still have 166 photos left to take! Ya never know what the rest of the year holds!!!
these socks also make me think of another favorite songs of mine SMILE by Pearl Jam! don't it make you smile?
don't it make you smile?
when the sun don't shine? (shine at all)
don't it make you smile?
don't it make you smile?
don't it make me smile?
when the sun don't shine, it don't shine at all
don't it make me smile?
i miss you already... i miss you always
i miss you already... i miss you all day
this is how i feel...
i miss you already... i miss you always
three crooked hearts and swirls all around... i miss you all day

Good luck charms!

Watching a brutal lightening storm! Its about 5 1ooos away or five miles away

Waiting on daddy to come home!

Maggie gets so excited when I tell her Daddy's on his way home!!

July 11th Dragon Fly!

Its the little things that matter, that add up in the end, with the priceless thrilling magic found only in chasing around a dragon fly begging it to sit still long enough for a photo and catching three photos! This little guy has been hanging out under the pink elephant ears all morning. Ya know. . . he has the right idea. Sure does look shady under there!!!

Waterspout in Fairhope

Today we had some server weather! We had a water spout in Fairhope Alabama, which is across the river AKA bay, but I've always called it the river or POND LOL. Just because I'm different that way, however. . . I took this photo off of Airport BLVD in Mobile. Kinda looked like a potential cloud that the water spout could have been in! SCARED ME!

Here lately, I have been loving my cell phone, keeping me up to date on my project 366! I think sometime soon, I'll pull out my sock monkeys! I need some inspiration for this project. No one seems to be following it like they were in 2010. And I don't even know who is still doing project 366, I don't like doing something alone! So, I might quit in July, but before I do, I will make more use of the SOCK Monkeys. People seemed to follow their posts!!!!

Happy Birthday to me!

Birthday dress shopping!
This dress was only $6.99.
That's a good birthday shop!!!

Bert and I about to get some dinner at Olive Garden! I Was in my new dress!
Sorry you really couldn't see it! LOL.

Quick snap shot!

When Bert works nights, everyone has a regular day but me. I stay up late, reading or cleaning or what ever. I was up and busy most of Sunday night reading, and time flew by, I looked at the clock and it was a little after midnight. . . ooops! Quick snap shot LOL.

I had a bobo. But it's a cute bobo now! Thanks to my baby for picking me up some Hello Kitty Band-aids!

Night of rearranging!

How I spent my evening last night, I rearranged the living room, and bed room and cleaned. Added somethings took somethings out now I have a reading chair and a place to keep my books! The stand with the Rolling Stone Mag covers was in the computer room, hardly ever seen, so I pulled it out and put it on display!! And now I have a new reading chair in the living room! = Happy ME!

Advice from Dad

I cheated with these, these are for the FIFTH of JULY's daily photos, but my dad told me to do so! HE told me to take a holiday from 365 and use this as my daily pic! So, I DID c - ; Love my Dad! He told me to use this photo because he loved it so much! So, I cheated and took a day off my project 366!! A much needed break ! Thanks DAD!!!

Happy Fourth?

Since most of the festivities for the fourth were Tuesday, I let my "Happy fourth photo" be for Tuesday LOL. Why must holidays be in the middle of the week? I'd rather them be on a weekend!!!

Let it burn!

Bert and I are doing the love dare again, one of our dares said for us to burn this list of negatives we had to make of each other. . .

First work out and I see this. . .

We went to our first work out session, and in the parking lot at the gym, was this beautiful truck! Saw the owner of the truck when we were leaving, told her, I was going to post it on my facebook, and my blogger. She laughed and said go ahead! LOL. So, here it is, COUNTRY WILD.

I, I, I work out!

I am now a new BLACK CARD holder at Planet Fitness!! I want to be like the BIGGEST LOOSER and loose like 20 lbs ! I'd be happy with myself if I could get back down to 115! I mean I am happy where I am now, but I was a lot healthier at 115, PRE THYROID problems!!!! I CAN DO THIS! This was my birthday gift to me from my husband! He is going to start going with me too, we don't want to get all buff and stuff, just doing this for our own personal health! BC WE NEED TO!
