Dear So and So...

I've said it before I love blogging because you just happen upon fun daily things.. I am going to hop on another bandwagon, one that I saw on this blog and it just seems like fun.




It started over here at 3 bedroom Bungalow . and basically just a open note to whoever!

Dear Gumba (my youngest cat),
Please, Please stop getting into the toilet paper and turning it into confetti while I am at work. I know you think it's fun, but I'm' tired of cleaning it up!
Thanks Buddy
Your Human Mommy

Dear Fridays,
Next time please don't forget to make my food when I call an order in. Some people really do only have a little bit of time for lunch.
But thanks for the free meal!
Shelly

Dear Pizza Delivery Place,
I just placed another order with you, please get it right this time. I don't care if I know you or not. I will stop ordering from you place. Even though when you actually get it right, the food is awesome.
Please and thank you!
Shelly

Head over over to 3 bedroom Bungalow , to join in on the fun!

The New Do

So when we got our taxes back, Damien gave me some money to get my hair done.. so that is exactly what I did today..

What do you think??

The Front:

The Back:



It's a tad shorter then I originally wanted. I said touching my shoulders, and it is when its wet, when it's dry it bounces up a bit as hair tends to do. But even though it's shorter, then I wanted. I think it turned out pretty good. Oh and I also got my eyebrows done. Goodbye bushy eyebrows!

So.. What do you think??

Take me back Tueday

It's take me back tuesday time once again.

My 8th grade school jacket.

The one thing I kept from my many childhood moves.

And again I will be 30 June 1st. and this jacket that I got when I was in 8th grade. oh so long ago,looked like it might still fit. So I tried it on..

Just a little snug but I can still put it on and snap it up.. because it is a courdoroy blue and gold school jacket, that I begged for and happily received. And I am so glad all these years later, it was something that I kept.

Head on over to I Giveaway Addicted Mommy for more Fun!

Project 365 (Day 7 & 8)

Look at me already behind after a day..


Day 7: I'm a reader always have,always will be. So here is just some of my book collection. I like certain authors and when I find one I like, I like to get everyone they have or at least the most I can.

In the last 2 years I have really gotten to like Jodi Picoult books. She is just a great story teller and really gets you involved in the story. I have read 6 or 7 and have plenty on this shelf I have not even touched yet. now I normally do not buy all these. I will buy one or two, but I ask for them for specials occasions. Like birthdays or Christmas.


Day 8: Damien on the other hand is NOT a reader. Unless that reading has anything to do with the Marvel Universe. He Loves marvel, He is a big Hulk and Wolverinefan. Those are his favorites. So the Marvel Universe does have a place in our house. Just some of his Graphic Novels, and other special books:

and a framed poster I got for him a couple Christmas's ago

Project 365 (Day 6)

Since I got so behind I will just pick up from here and go on.. So even though this is technically supposed to be a much higher number I am going to continue with Day #6

So I went around my house today looking for interesting things to photgraph..

One of the best things we purchased 2 years ago was a fireplace.


We had a gas fireplace hookup since we moved in. but it was not turned on and it did not have working logs. Our apartment is also old so its very drafty in the winter and we would freeze even with the heat on, and the gas bills were crazy because we turned up the heat. We bought a new gas log set for the fireplace and a new grate to make sure the cats would not get hurt. Best thing we could have ever purchased. Keeps the living room toasty and the gas bills are lower because we can keep the heat down. I love it..

I will try to keep on top of this better project 365, no more slacking.

Memories of Middle School..

I don't have many things from my childhood. We moved around a lot and things tend to get lost in multiple moves. But I do have a couple things. One being a Corduroy Blue and Gold School jacket with my name on the front from when I was in 8th grade.

That was the big thing that year, when you got in the 8th grade you could order this jacket.
and I begged for one, and got one. I decided to break it out and take some pictures of it. Now this thing is from 1994 I believe..


The Front


The Back

Can't forget the school mascot on 1 sleeve in patch form of course


This thing looked like it would still fit, so I tried it on, and it still fit! A tad bit snug but I can button it up no problem.see It even had my name on it. You have to admit it's one cool jacket! At least I thought so back then..lol..

Yeah , I am going to be 30 in June and I still fit in my 8th grade corduroy school jacket.. ..
