Weekend Wrapup

So here's the thing... I'm considering doing a weekend wrapup on Mondays, but let's face it... I'll probably never do it.

Buttt I'm going to try...

This weekend = work.

all weekend.

yuck.

Oh and Baron came to see us ... and actually is currently here.

We also decided to get rid of the guineas :( because they make Urza sick --- he is allergic to their hay. He's had recurring sinus infections since we got Lola.

so ..... Puppy time!

Want. Need. MUST HAVE. Tuesdays

iHome!!


So I can dance around in my underwear while I clean the house

S turned two today and I cried (only a little).

I'm more attached to that little boy that I ever thought I'd be! I guess watching him since he was 3 weeks old does that though. He's adorable and has changed so much in 2 years (obvs). I'm quite simply in love with him... :)
oh and you should hear the conversations we have :) hehe it's amazing!

His mom and dad had a little party for him tonight and I was invited (thank you!). We had vanilla cupcakes with chocolate icing (yummy!) and the best juice (which I am going out to buy tomorrow).

S got quite a few new (educational) toys from his mom, a bike seat from his dad, a train set, clothes, and a tiger from his grandparents ... and books from me. I'm the boring one eh? No, not really - S LOVES books. ... no, not just LOVES, but LOVES books and I got him a book of animals ... oh yeah! JACKPOT!

& I'm Bored

So I'm sitting here all alone while the guys are at the game (Go University!). I'm thinking about all the cleaning, organizing, laundering, and homework that I could be doing. However, I have no motivation. I just don't want to.

I want to take a nap. I want to be lazy.

Want. Need. MUST HAVE. Tuesdays

Time for Want. Need. MUST HAVE. Tuesdays... and guess what?! 2nd post on time!
I'm impressed with myself. ha.

Charmed. One of my favorite shows. Absolute favorite. I just want to watch it over and over again and that is why...
I need the complete series: (and it needs to be the one that is "Book of Shadows" size like that one is)


Also, I'd love to have this or this.




Oh oh oh! I want this too:




I have a huge list of movies that I want... but for some reason I can't remember them all right now ... so this will be a post that is periodically updated! or something.

Stay tuned!

One of my favorite things in the world are...

BOOKS!

and now I get to work around them ALL THE TIME!

That's right ... I'm now employed at the library ... :sigh: I'm so happy.

I'm super excited and it's going to be so much fun.

I lead a charmed life!

Want. Need. MUST HAVE. Tuesdays

UPDATE: 09-30-09 ... BACK IN STOCK!!

UPDATE: 09-09-09 .... FIIIINNNNE! apparently that one is "out of stock" ::said mockingly while rolling eyes:: ... so this one will do, but I don't quite love it as much.

I have a watch that I love, but it's getting old and scratched up. About a year ago I attended a Speed Reading Seminar (which didn't help me btw) and the teacher had on a watch similar to this one:



I really liked it. She told me it was a Fossil so I went online and found this one and fell in love with it!

It's gorgeous and unique.
It would make a great present.... :hint hint:......

I'm special because....

I have one less saliva gland than you do.

Want. Need. MUST HAVE. Tuesdays

Anne of Green Gables has long been a favorite series of mine!
However, I only have the first two books and I can't find the first one!




So I've been wanting this for a while now.

I loved these books as a young'un... and I have no idea when I will be able to read through them again (if ever), but I would love to own the complete series.
There is just something about keeping a part of your childhood with you.

In my advanced years I like to reflect ...

BadBlogger!

So I'm a horribly bad blogger ... so sorry!

I'll be posting Want. Need. MUST HAVE. Tuesday tomorrow... late again.

ugh

BREAKING NEWS

Thank you.

Want. Need. MUST HAVE. Twosday.

Sooo ... I don't have much time to update right now, but I thought I'd post this and edit later.

I am giving you two! items on MUST HAVE Tuesday.

I'm in love with Amy Giacomelli's paintings. They are simply Gorgeous. Night of a Thousand Stars is one of my favorites.
They are a little expensive :( buttt... she does have a print shop!! YAY

I Want. Need. MUST HAVE.
Setting Sun
Rising Sun
Lights in the Sky
or
Journeys Through Time

OK here is #2

I love this Infinity bookcase!
It looks like it would be too big for just about anywhere except a museum... but give me a smaller version and I'd gobble that right up!


I haven't forgotten about my 3 weekends I need to write about. That post is being worked on right now....

Ooops!

So... yeah, I haven't posted in quite a while and I forgot yesterday's Want. Need. MUST HAVE. Tuesday.

Ooops! ... believe me there is plenty out there that I want!
No excuse, but I worked all day yesterday. Then had to go to 3 stores afterward and I was plain exhausted ... so no update.
Please don't cry. I don't have the energy to console. ... and I hear that's a bad thing anyway.


I will be out of town for the next few days. But when I get back I will update on our Tulsa weekend, my Bricktown weekend, and this upcoming weekend - the last one of freedom before school starts. Sighhh. It better be a good one.

Want. Need. MUST HAVE. Tuesdays

UPDATE (08-26-09) THIS DOES NOT WORK. UGH. So I recently had a chance to try it out ... no good :(

So I've a pretty nice collection of music going on now. And I really want to be able to listen to it in the car!

I don't want to use my earphones and I don't like putting my iPhone on high volume. It just doesn't work in the car.

So what do I need you ask.... I need this!



It is a handy little charger that also broadcasts your music through a static station! It sounds perfect...


Also, we just got back from vacation to Tulsa to see Urza's family. I was planning on writing a "Weekend Wrap-up" today (it's going to be a weekly blog), but I am so tired! I'll have to do it tomorrow ... my first day off! I started my job today and I have an ongoing headache ... the lovely reality of working at a major national chain store. It sucks. Already.

Weekend!

So I'll be out for a few days... doing something super fun! :)

I know you'll miss me, but you'll just have to get by somehow.

More Sandwiches...

So I'm currently munching on some BBQ made by Master. Quite simply the best I've ever had.

Delicious.

Be jealous.

Pot Sandwiches

So last night I chowed down on pot sandwiches. A few leaves between a couple of slices of bread with some mayo slathered on. They were delicioso.

No kidding.

It was the most interesting dream I've had in a while.
Urza, Barrin, Chace and I were all chowing down while my parents were away. They showed up and we had to move stuff in. Talk about not being able to walk or talk.

We were so out of it. It was nice.

Want. Need. MUST HAVE. Tuesdays

I am in love. With these earrings. I must have them.




I found them here.
ahhh Dooce. I love her too.
I'd marry her. If it were legal, she wasn't with Jon, and I wasn't with Urza. Get those little complications out of the way and she'd be mine. Oh and I guess make her fall in love with me too.

I'd wear the earrings to the wedding.

The "Players" in My Life

Here you go!

The "Players" in My Life - A Reference Page

• Kiki = me - also known as Aunt Kiki, Caterpillar, Sis, and Kiki Dawn
• Urza Josh = My fiance', my best friend, and the love of my life - he makes my life fun, exciting, and full of never ending craziness (he was once referred to as Urza, but I can't do it. He's only Josh to me)

• Dad = again... you guess who this is - he is a wonderful person who I have so much respect and love for (also known as Grumpy)
• Chace = one of my best friends and my sister - she's quite crazy like I am. And believe me I will probably not inform all of you of all our escapades (but she does look quite good in orange! hehe)

• Comrade Lenin/Dad 2 = Josh's Dad - an awesome, supportive and caring man who is there to help - oh and he pretty much set up Josh and me ... thank you Comrade Lenin, you are a great dad!
• M2 (Mom Two) = Josh's Mom - a lovely, caring lady who I am happy is my second mom
• Master = my older brother - you know the saying "Jack of all trades, master of none" - he's pretty much the master of all & the coolest guy I know
• BB = Master's wife - while we aren't thisclose I do think she's a wonderful person and know that she and I would be good friends given our lives weren't in the way and we could hang out more
• IT Geek = my oldest brother - a geeky guy who is fun to hang around with

• Dr. A = Josh's sister - an awesome woman who I'm glad is going to be my sister too - I just wish we had more chances to hang out
  
• Boomer = Dr. A's husband - nice, cool, funny, smart ... oh and the best quality? A HUGE OU fan... enough said (probably bigger than Urza and I ... nah not quite) Boomer Sooner
• Michael = Josh's brother - a super funny, kind, and generous guy who is willing to do anything for you - made me feel right at home when I first met Josh's family - oh and he collects money - coins, dollars, etc. - he has a nice collection - including a 1920 $2 bill
• K = Josh's stepdad

• Kristy = my parents' dog (really she's mine!) - the best dog you could EVER ask for
• Reese/Reeser/Reese Piece/Reeser Piecer = my sister's crazy dog - a Yorkie who is hyper beyond all reason for about 8 minutes and then crashes for the next 23 hours & 52 minutes
• Mercy Maurice = the cat that has adopted my parents, much to my mom's dismay "I don't need ANOTHER animal to take care of!" UPDATE: and now we have found out that it is a boy not a girl. My sister will no longer be naming animals
• Summer = my sister's 3rd horse - she's a super sweet and loving horse - much nicer than the asses my sister had before (no she didn't have donkeys)
• Bell = BB's HUMONGOUS Great Dane - she likes me or so Master says - she tries to give me hugs ... and looks me in the eye ... you know no small feat I am 5 ft tall afterall
• Cooper = S's dog - he is so much fun to play with - he surprisingly puts up with all S's crazy antics

There you have it! Those are the people I converse with, see, and talk about on a fairly often basis.

Enjoy reading about them... and yourself!

Coming soon.... to a computer near you

Update: Here it is!

To come soon:

a list of people in my life that I will be talking about regularly ... simply: a reference page
