i made it to houston with no problems. actually, the flight was good, i took a little nap, watched radio and knitted some on the poncho i'm making for baby tabitha. mom is good. my aunt barbara is here. she has mellowed so much since the last time i saw her. we are really having a good time. i will say that i haven't found a yarn store. i was hoping to buy some new yarn while i was here. oh well. tonight we are having dinner with mike and kim. should be fun. no pictures today. maybe … [Read more...]

getting a back bone.

the rocker has been in pain for months. actually, i think he has been in pain more than 1/2 of our relationship, i'm thinking it may even be more than that. in the begining, he didn't make a big deal about it. i think he was just hoping that it would go away. finally, last month, i made an appointment for the rocker to visit my doctor. he went in, and was told he needed x-rays. he wasn't very serious about getting the x-rays, and then the first technician did them wrong. the 26th he had … [Read more...]

gigglechick, the perfect average jane!

you know, i got really angry during the first average joe. then i saw what happened on average joe 2. now, adam is no better than those nasty women. i think we need a REAL woman to go on NBC and show america how average people are... erin aka gigglechick should be average jane. god knows, a "pretty" woman isn't average, and the average man put in any situation with a "pretty" woman and a average woman would pick the "pretty" one. let an average girl show america how REAL women date, and … [Read more...]

buying art

i've been buying art as of late. a lot of art. the gofish inspired me with her purchase from travis. i searched thru travis' work and purchased "ben". i didn't quite know what to do next. i thought about it for a couple of weeks, then i went wacko. stinky was next. then, there are so many more... i'm now in arrangement mode. i've got all the pieces on the floor, trying to decide how i like it best. hmm. i'm not sure this is it, but it does show all but 4 pieces that i own. 2 are on … [Read more...]

a victory for the sabercats, and for me.

as you may recall, i was supposed to go to the sabercats game with my nephew on friday night. i made all the arrangements with my ex-brother-in-law. i bought an extra ticket, i was ready to go. let's just say that things didn't work out as i had hoped. thursday night, the rocker and i started calling around to see if anyone was up to going to the game. at 10, i was looking for anne on aim, and ms. nikki caught me and asked me if the baby had been born yet. i told her yes, and then told her … [Read more...]
