My Baby is Grown Up!

It's been so nice having Brandon home from K-State for the holiday! I really miss him, but you raise your children to spread their wings, so I have to let him go.

Here's his picture at 18 months:Here he is this week working on homework on his computer.They grow up SOOOOOO fast!

All of you with young children out there - enjoy them! Before long they will be in college, and you will be facing an empty nest like me!

We took Brandon out to eat at Abuelo's this evening. He loves Mexican food and had never been there. They have good margarita's too! YUM!

I got some more Christmas shopping done at Target today. I am almost done! I'm working on getting my Christmas cards done, and we'll be decorating the house in the next few days. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas (especially with the snow last night and today!)...

My current music is HINDER - one of Brandon's favorite bands. He brought their new CD home and I really like it.

And today's quote is from Washington Irving: "An inexhaustible good nature is one of the most precious gifts of heaven, spreading itself like oil over the troubled sea of thought, and keeping the mind smooth and equable in the roughest weather."

Isn't This Gross?

Corby lets Muffin drink out of his milk glass. Isn't that disgusting? I love animals, but I sure don't share my drinks with them. YUCK! Brandon will be home tomorrow - on his 19th birthday! His last final is at 12:30. Corby & Kaleb are headed up to help him bring his stuff home. I was planning on going, but because Hope is out on medical leave, I can't take off. That's okay - I really wasn't looking forward to carrying his stuff down 7 flights of stairs! YIPPEE - MY BABY IS COMING HOME FOR THE SUMMER! Does anyone else out there love "House Hunters" - the show on HGTV? For some reason, that show grabs me. I like to see the 3 houses the couples (sometimes singles) choose from. Of course, most of them have a lot more money than we do! Saw one last night that was a young couple in Chicago - lived in the inner city, but with 2 kids decided to move to the suburbs. Their goal was to find a house for under $1,000,000. That a million dollars folks! How can peop...

Terrible Day

I'm not going to go into a lot of detail here, but suffice it to say that I had a TERRIBLE day at work! I made a huge mistake costing the company some revenue, and I feel awful! I certainly didn't need anyone to get on my butt, because I was kicking myself for the better part of the day. I know, I know, I'm human, but this was a BIG human mistake! I hate to admit that I'm human! HATE TO MAKE MISTAKES - ESPECIALLY BIG ONES! Okay, that's it. I'm having a margarita and trying to relax now. I'm done with being human for a while!
