Bits and Pieces

Well, I've done it again. I've gone and not kept up with a goal. For two weeks in a row now, I've not posted a blog entry like I promised myself I would. I know, I know, I'm only letting myself down, (cause I honest-to-goodness don't think anyone else reads it) but it's a promise all the same. And me, myself and I, get aggravated at ourselves when we don't do what we say we are going to do. Oh boy, I'm really starting to sound crazy....wait....yep, the other two agree.

Hmmm, what all has happened since my last post. Well, I've turned a year older. It's the big three-nine for me now. My mother swears I was born in 1971, but I just don't feel like I should be this old already. In my mind, all three of them, I feel much, much younger. Sometimes I start to do something, then 'I' stop 'myself' and say, "You're to old to act like that!" Then 'me' says, "Go for it!" So I do.

This was not exactly the direction I had expected my blog to take this morning.

Back to my birthday, and saner minds. It was a wonderful day. Doug took me out to dinner at our favorite place, J Parrino's. We ordered baked mostaccioli, as usual. And split it, as usual. And was home by 9:30, as usual. Doug and I had a great time at dinner. However, I noticed he didn't seem to act quite like himself. I talk about myself not acting my age, you should meet my husband. It wasn't until we got home that he finally told me how sick he was. I would have been just as happy with a bologna sandwich at home that night. Especially if I had known he was not feeling well.

There was girl drama at the High School. But we won't talk about that. Though your prayers are welcome and are encouraged. :)

Clay, well, he's the same. Doing good. Living to pester his older sister and freak his mom out whenever possible.

Got new glasses.

Had lunch with a dear friend on Saturday.

Um....lets see, what else. Oh, I went to see Chonda Peirce Sat. night in her Did I Say That Out Loud tour. She's a christian comedian and super funny! It was so nice to listen to a comedian and have good, clean fun....the whole time. Vulgarity and the "F word" does not make jokes funnier. Plain old simple, true, daily life is the funniest. Especially if you live in my home.

Just plain old simple, true, daily life is what's been going on in our lives. Boring as it may be to others, it's the simplicity of it that makes one Shine!
