Kia

Kia, our dog will not let us get any pictures of her the last couple of years so a few weeks ago I was going to try and get her on video. She was asleep on her pillow and she looked soooooo cute! She is a huge dog but sometimes when she sleeps she looks so small. (Don't ask me how but that is just the way she looks to me) Anyway take a look at the video...I can't fool her! That is the way she looks in every picture we take now too!

NetFlix

So far I am very impressed with NetFlik! I have the two movie deal. You pick out all the movies you want on your list and the order you would like them to be in and they mail you two movies. After you watch them you mail them back and then they will send the next two movies or you can watch one movie and mail it back and they will just mail you one movie, ect. Well we watched one movie and I put it in the mail yesterday at about 2pm thinking they wouldn't get it till tomorrow (Fri) but I got a email this morning informing me that they had already recieved it and my next movie is in the mail already!! I was very suprised at how fast they got the movie back!! Plus they pay for shipping the movies back! It is really easy!! Just thought I would pass this along!

Rambling On And On

So every time I go to target (even with a list) I instantly get ADD. I will go in the store and come out with everything I don't need and a lot of time forget the things I went there for! (even if I have my list!)

I LOVE bags and purses. I can look at them all day long! Awhile back I use to buy a lot of bags and purses but had to stop because I never would really use them. I would see them in the store and buy it, take it home and up on a shelf with a hundred other bags it would go. Not sure why I wouldn't use them. I would always swear that I would but for whatever reason I would usually stick to one purse or bad. It was a very bad habit I got into, good thing I broke it! I still love to look though!

Kyler and Branson are both in baseball right now. This is Branson's 1st year and Kyler's 2nd year. Kyler is really doing great this season! It is a night and day difference from last year!! His coach this year was suprised he had only played one season before this one! Branson is doing good too. He is still getting use to it but he is so proud when he is out in a game! He has so much enthusiusm!! You can just feel his excitement! They both have a game tonight so I will let you know what happens!!

Well it has happened! It happened last week. I didn't say anything hoping it would just go away but it didn't. FALL is here! We had lunch outside last week and a breeze was blowing and right there on the patio it happened...I felt the chill in the wind. You know the one- where it is still 98 degrees outside but you can definantly feel the chill. Yep fall is here. Now I know a lot of people LOVE fall but I am not one of them. Fall is my least favorite season. In fact a few years ago I wanted to chase summers. I wanted to be here in Austin for the summer and then as soon as it was over fly to Australia and stay there for there summer (Summer is just now starting in Australia). Just keep moving back and fouth so I could always be in summer. I don't want to move to Florida or some place warm all year...that is not the same to me....I want the season to always be summer. Weird-I know. When I hit the jackpot that will just be one of the crazy things we do! I love summer!

We joined Netflix finally! So far we love it! We really love the unlimited movies you can watch on your PC. Paul just hooks up his laptop to our tv and the quality is unbelievible! Love it!

That is about it for now!

Books

I thought I would post some books that I have read recently and liked in case anyone
is making a trip to the bookstore soon.

Barbara Walters Audition...This was was REALLY good!! I am not a huge fan of Barbara but have always liked her but this book has made me a huge fan! It is amazing how far woman have come in the work place from when she started out. The whole book was good and I couldn't put it down!!

Valerie Bertinelli Losing It....This was a very easy read and took me the weekend to finish. I was little when her show was out but do remember it so it was interesting reading about that time in her life and about her marring Eddie Van Halen even though I not a huge fan of Van Halen.

Liz Gilbert Eat Pray Love...Very good book!! She is a great writer and so funny!!! I am sure everyone has read this book but it not it is totally worth it!!

Tori Spelling Stori Telling.... Another person I am not a big fan of but did really come to like her after reading this book. Her childhood was very interesting as the relationship with her mom. This was another easy read and only took me a couple of days to finish. Loved all the 90210 info in it too. I loved that show in highshcool.

So I am sitting here drawing a blank on what to blog about. It is funny because when I am running, in the shower, at Target, driving I think of a million things to blog about. In fact I will type out every detail in my head and have a very long blog idea in my head and then I get to my computer and Bam....NOTHING! I know, I know I need to write down my ideas but I am lazy. Or it is too hard to write while running. So here I am with nothing to write and here you are reading my nothing and I am sure by now you are getting bored reading my nothing that I am going on and on about.

So I will try and make some chit chat while I try and think of something to say...So I am sure you heard but Jolie-Pitts had their twins! Very exciting news! Now they have 6 kids! That is crazy to even imagine but at least the got the money to have nannies. Lets see what else Jimmy Kimmel and Sarah Silverman split up. That was pretty shocking since they have been together for 5 years. Of course they were not married so maybe she wanted to get married and said either get me a ring or get out and he said see ya and now Sarah is like oh s*#$! Didn't count on that happening! But don't worry Sarah you are probably better off without him! Khloe Kardashian was sentenced to 3 days in jail for not doing community service for a DUI....Don't know who she is? She is Kim Kardashian's sister from the reality show The Kardashians....not very important..just a rich girl that is kind of spoiled. Well this was some kind of info right? I know, I know I got it from people.com but still it was better than no blog at all right? I promise next time I will have something meaningful posted! I will start taking a pen and paper every where I go in case I have an idea!! See yall next time!! :)

New Post Under MN Post

There is a new post under the Minnesota post. I am not sure why it posted under the MN post. Some times I feel I am just along for the ride.....

Random Short Letters

I saw this idea on another post so I thought I would borrow the idea and do a post with it. Here we go...

Dear Exercise,

I want to thank you for always being there for me and always following through on all your promises! Not once did you ever lie to me and promise me something that you could do. I am sorry for all the verbal abuse I have thrown at you through the years! Always using four letter words while I was working out or tell you how much I hate you but the truth is, I love you! Not only do you provide me with the best body I could ask for but you also always life my spirits, make my mood positive and help me through stressful times! Thank you from the bottom of my heart and I promise to try not to verbally abuse you anymore!

Dear House,

Thank you for not only being our house but being our home! We love you more each and every day! I do have one complaint. Remember how we talked about you keeping clean? I am getting very disappointed by how you are not keeping your end of the deal! I can't keep you clean while trying to entertain 3 kids during the summer! Please, please try to work harder on this and we will love you even more! Thank you!

Dear Allergies,

Please leave me the heck alone! I have had enough and because of you I have kept benadril and zertec in business and it is time I put that money else where. Thank you and don't let the door hit ya on the way out!

Dear Laundry,

Please learn to fold yourselves. I just don't have the time! Also learn to put your self up, in fact please just learn to do everything by yourself as you are my least favorite thing to do! Thank you!

Dear CF,

Your days are numbered!! Too many people have had enough of you and a cure will soon wipe you out of this world!! It is getting closer, we can all feel it!!



Dear Readers of My Blog,

Thank you for reading my blog and please feel free to come back anytime! I love you all and hope everyone has a great weekend!!

Love,
Me

Senor Frog

Hi all,

Well our down stairs air conditioner broke on Sun night and they couldn't get the part in to fix it till today (luckily we have a two year warenty) but it has been pretty cool at night so we have just been opening our bedroom window. Well we have a frog (I guess because of the pool) right outside our window and he croaks all night long. I named him Senor "talk all the time" Frog. I mean, he never stops!! Not even for a minute!! So yesterday I was pretty tried. I felt like a zombie! Well last night it was the same thing. Senor "talk all the time" Frog started off right where he left off. But I guess I am getting use to it because I am not as tired today as I was yesterday. Just thought I would let you know about our new friend...Senor Frog! If I see him I will try and get a picture.
