five years ago....

david became the luckiest man in the world. haha! we may be goofy, but i wouldn't change a thing. i love him bunches upon bunches. he's a great hubby.

christmas kitties....

if you have not received one of my christmas cards, i do apologize. it is because i either do not have your address, or i wrote the wrong one on the card. but here's the pictures of two peed off kitties who graced our cards this year.
jim jam as santa....














and strat as his very unwilling reindeer....

for your christmas listening pleasure....

christmas tree, my christmas tree....

i put my tree up this weekend, yes, a little early i know, but i have to put it up so the cats can get used to it. i shaped it up all pretty and they did so good. only trying to eat it a little bit. well, i come home yesterday, and the tree looks mighty funny. the branches are all pushed down, it's certainly no longer shaped. so while i'm trying to shape it back up, i look down, and strat has climbed the artificial tree. i didn't even know there was enough to grip to climb an artificial tree. especially on this tree, it's really slim and only 7 ft. it's a wonder he didn't knocked it down. if i wouldn't have been so mad, i would have thought to get a picture. can't wait to see what happens with the lights and ornaments.

screeeeeeechhhh!!!!

ok, it's been a while, but i have to do something to get my mind off the fire alarm system they are testing here at work. oh, it just stopped... thank goodness. a splitting headache and fire alarms don't go too well together....

so i need to talk about survivor last night. it was really good. at first, i could not stand russell, but he has become one of my favorite players. that guy is playing the game and playing hard. i hope he finds the immunity idol for the third time without any clues. those guys left off galou, except shambo, really rub me the wrong way.

david and i are going to bham this afternoon to try to get some christmas shopping done. we have one christmast on thanksgiving, so that makes me get an early start. i say i will every year, and every year i'm trying to find gifts on christmas eve.

what is wrong with me....

i just got asked how old i was, and i aged myself a year. i mean 27 is bad enough, but i'm thinking i'm 28? what the heck? of course that came out of a conversation on when i was going to have children. oh well, i got avon and good genes in the aging department on my side, so maybe my plan not to age past 29 will work. (jill, if you read this, i know you're thinking, i'm already 28 you nerd! haha)

happy birthday gandhi....

i wish more people had that mentality.
