Rehearsals Over!!!

Well, we opened Summer Mummers last weekend which means no more rehearsals..yay! I can finally get back into making jewelry, cleaning house, and cooking. I will be making enchiladas tomorrow night. I can't wait. I might attempt to make spanish rice. Sometimes it comes out great and others....

My boyfriend's family was in town from Minnesota last week. We had a real nice time. I cooked up some ribeyes with cherry sauce one night and some tacos the next. My mom came over as well. We all went to the drive-in which is always a blast. My dogs are super spoiled now that they had both "grandmas" over at the same time, plus their "Aunt Debbie"...lol. They got to meet their cousin Merlin. He is a very cute Boston Terrier.

I started this bracelet last night and finished it about an hour ago. Here are some pics. What do ya think?

Organizing

Many people say an unorganized home leads to a chaotic life. I agree..lol. I have been trying to organize everything in the house. Is it me or does it seem like there is never enough room? I have tons of closet space, but they are all full. My goal for this next week is to get rid of anything that I have not worn in the past year. I have so many pairs of shoes that it is ridiculous. I always bag all my stuff and give it to my mom who either has a garage sale or gives it to people in need. Make-up, love it. I have so much of it that I bought all these organizers to try and get it in order. The funny thing about it is that I don't wear it much...lol. Guess I'll get rid of a lot of that as well.

If you have any organizational skills or ideas. Please share them with me while I'm on my quest to organize my house.

Thanks : )

Checking In

Hey everybody,

I've been MIA for awhile due to going out of town. My mother wrecked her truck, so I went to visit her so she could use my car to go to work. I was in a little town with nothing to do. I took cases of beads, and we made a ton of jewelry. I am hoping to post pics soon. Mom and I had a great time. We went to my brother's house on Easter. I got to see family and have a nice time while there.

Well, we decided to keep a puppy. We kept the little one and named her Raven. She was so sweet at first. Now, she's a little terror..lol. She runs around and chases/bites the other dogs. My poor babies are terrified of her...lol. Staci, one of my best friends, took the little boy. She says he fits in perfectly.

If you are in Midland/Odessa area, make sure to go and see Rent this weekend or next. You can call the box office at 570-4111 to reserve tickets. It's going to be a great show. I'm going to go see it on May 2nd.

I can't wait for Sunday! Sunday will be Summer Mummer kick off party at the Yucca. Everyone is invited to come have food/drinks at 5:30pm. You can sign up to work bar, popcorn, etc. Auditions will begin at 6:30pm. Saturday is my birthday so maybe we'll have cake : ) hint hint...lol.

Busy, busy, busy

I have been very busy with the puppies. They are running, jumping and all over the place. They have finally started eating the puppy mush. I had to feed them with my fingers, and they just now are starting to eat from the dish.

My mom came over last week. We had such a good time. We went to her favorite store (Goodwill). Then, we went to Hobby Lobby. When we were leaving there were cop cars everywhere. Come to find out someone had just got jacked in the parking lot. I guess the guy had robbed women in three parking lots. Thank God that it wasn't us. They caught the guy though.

I am going out of town today to do a party. I think it will be a fun one, pun intended. My mom's going to be there and she is crazier than I am. I'll probably stay the night at her house because Matt doesn't want me driving home that late. He has fallen in love with the baby girl puppy. He plays with her all the time and is constantly holding her. Now, he's thinking about keeping her. I don't know what I would do with four dogs. The three we have right now are a handful as it is. She is so adorable though..hmmm. We'll see I guess.

The puppies are 4 weeks old

I am loving the puppies. It's going to be hard to give them away : ( As long as I know the people whose homes they are going to, I think I'll be fine. Here are some pics.

Spring spring spring

Matt has been sick the past couple of days and now I have it...cough cough, sore throat..ick!

My cousin JoAnn made me this beautiful wreath. I just love it. It brightens my day everytime I look at it. The colors are beautiful. She's so crafty. I always tell her she should sell the items she makes. She always makes these wonderful items and gives them away to family. I consider her my best friend. We talk everyday. Sometimes we talk until wee hours in the morning. Isn't great to have a friend like that?
