Weekend Update

My weekend has pretty much sucked. My cold has traveled south and after a couple of days of feeling almost human, I now feel like the parking lot of a truckstop, flat on my back and the weight af 50 trucks on my chest. Awesome.

I did shake it off long enough to go to the movies with Andrea and see The Time Traveler's Wife. Yeah, she picked it. We both bawled like little babies and I've vowed that she shall never again pick my movies. I give her the Commitments. She gives me red eyes and runny mascara. Bitch.

*Kidding. I love that girl. She's still not allowed to pick the movies. *

Posting will be extremely light this week. I have a project that must be finished and even though I'm close to done, but with Red starting preschool this week, I want to give myself a break. Novel idea, no?

In other fabulous news, Drama Queen earned a spot in the High School's fall production of All In The Timing. She's the only freshman to get a role in a cast of ten, so needless to say, I'm pretty freakin' proud. Rehearsals throw my carefully crafted schedult in the crapper, but such is the life of a mother.

Off to cough up a lung and perhaps a kidney. Jealous yet?

Congrats to DQ! What an accomplishment. :) My daughter has auditions tomorrow. I have everything crossed for good luck. Makes it hard to type, but I'm persevering.

Did you read The Time Traveler's Wife? I did and I'm curious if the movie ended differently than the book. I want to see it, yet I don't. I'm sure I will eventually, though.

Feel better!!! ♥

I.am.so.jealous! (Not really, but I want to be a cooperative kind of friend.)

Hooray for DQ! That's really fabulous.

Hope you are feeling better pronto.

Welcome to My World

It's a crazy one. Here's the guide.


Mr. Clairol: My darling husband and love of my life. He's a mechanic, dyes his hair platinum blond and drives to work on a Vespa. I swear he isn't gay.


Drama Queen: My fourteen year old daughter who is frighteningly brilliant and gorgeous to boot. Of course, I am her mother.


Missy Hoohaw: The four year old daughter. She loves animals and roughhousing and earned her name by being a 28 year old Marine in a preschooler's body. No, she doesn't swear and drink. But she can run twenty miles in the rain and give a mighty Hoo-rah.

Big Red: Our toddler son, who is redheaded and proud of it. He's got a healthy temper and the sweetest smile this side of the Mississippi, so it evens out. I was worried about defending him from his sisters at first. Now, I worry about the girls.


The Beast: Our dog, who is a mutt, heavy on the Great Dane. He's named after a heavy metal guitarist in my husband's all time favorite band. This says it all, believe me.


This is my life. Try not to be too jealous.
