Friday Funny!

You are as young as you think you are...unless you're old. In all seriousness I must think I'm really old because I'm falling apart. Still have sciatica. I have been trying a few new stretches and I think they are helping a little. The only problem is the longer I sit the more it hurts so writing has been painful, both physically and mentally. I am making progress though. Happy with how things are coming along.

Speaking of old. I hope I'm as cool as this "Grandpa" when I'm his age.

Have a great weekend!

Friday Funny!

I can honestly say that it's been a more productive week on the writing front. I didn't get as much in as I would have liked, but at least I got some in. A little is better than nothing at all, right?

For the Friday Funny this week I would like to give a shout out to my brother, Jordan, who after many years of schooling finally graduated with his PhD in Chemistry. Yeah, he's that smart. I'm so proud of you and wish you the best of luck in your new job. This one is for you Jordan, although you probably already know what's going to happen.

Friday Funny!

Lately I have been feeling guilty for not getting my writing in. I make up reason after reason why I'm not writing. Silly things really, like we just adopted a baby and I'm not getting any sleep, or we have to clean up, pack up and moved across the country and then unpack and clean up once we've done that, but my favorite one is when I sit for very long my sciatica acts up and is incredibly painful making it hard to function for the rest of the day. Yeah, I know, I need to just buck up and get it done. So that's exactly what I'm going to do, right after I finish my blog, clean the house, do the laundry, walk on my treadmill, take care of Mia, and take a nap...wait I'm doing it again.

I realize all these things are good things that need to get done, but if you are really serious about writing somethings in life have got to give a little. You have to be willing to put the time and energy into your craft if you want to succeed. I've decided that cleaning the house and doing the laundry can wait...indefinitely. I have also decided that I am going to have to put another hobby on hold, (baking), if I'm going to meet my deadlines. (Don't worry Beth and Gene I promise to bake while you're here!)

Anyhow,  I love living in Missouri. It's been a fun few weeks. The only down side to living here is the weather. It's scary to say the least.

Have a great weekend!

I don't know how many of you have started a diet just to watch the rest of the world feed their faces with everything you would rather be eating. It's the story of my life. After watching this video I can tell you I feel the same way the monkey with the cucumber does.

Have a great weekend!

Friday Funny!

We have now lived in Missouri for over a week. I actually really like it here. The only thing that is starting to bug me is I think our moving boxes are starting to breed. They are everywhere and no matter how many I unpack and break down I still don't seem to be getting anywhere. They seem to be multiplying. It's like a Hydra. I cut off one head just to have two grow back in its place.

Anyway, I wanted to clarify why I am posting this Friday Funny. Our youngest daughter, Maleia, is part African American. She is the most beautiful girl you will ever see and we get a great deal of attention because of this. There is one little girl in particular who loves to play with Maleia and apparently has never noticed the difference in their skin coloring until one Sunday after playing with her she looked up at my husband and said, "Her seen is darker than mine...I think she's going to be black when she grows up!"



I thought this was hilarious because she said it so innocently. She seemed almost positive that you start out white and then grow up to be black or something so when I saw this video I had to post it. Don't take offense because none was meant.

I hope you all have a great weekend!

Friday Funny!

I've decided that after driving 1235 miles with five kids and four dogs in two vehicles, then spending the last two days trying to unpack my life out of hundreds of boxes that I didn't pack with those same five children running around that I don't have enough drama in my life so I've decided to push the button.

Have a great weekend!
