Crazy weather

Last night it thunder stormed worse than I have seen in a LONG time! The tornado sirens went off a few times and we didn’t have electricity from about 7pm-3am. We didn’t sleep too well last night because we were so HOT it was hard to get good rest. Finally it came back on and we were able to get ready for work this morning. Our entertainment last night consisted of watching the tree in front of our door get knocked over from 70mph winds! I’ve been looking for a dress to wear to Kim (Terence’s other sister) and Kevin’s wedding in August. I believe her colors are blue and yellow. I like this one, but I would probably wear camisole or tank top underneath it. What do ya’ll think?

So glad tomorrow is Friday!

Tag your it!

The Domestic Goddess tagged me with the Top 5 Summer Fun Things you enjoy…here it goes! By the way I am normally a cold weather gal…so I will try to think of some things I enjoy besides sweating and sunburns! LOL!

1. Sunshine-seriously it just puts me in a better mood
2. Snow cone stands
3. Summer vacations with family and friends
4. Work dress code goes from Business to Business Casual
5. Traffic seems to have slowed down significantly since summer vacation started and school busses aren’t out and about! Amen!

Gaming

I bought the Sims 3 game the other day and I haven’t started playing it full on yet…but I know I loved playing the Sims & Sims 2. I played them for awhile and then it faded and I hadn’t played them for at least a year. I thought I would try this and see how I liked it. The graphics are supposed to be a lot better and it’s more 3-D than the older games. Bonnie bought it too and we were trying to figure out how we can play online together. I haven’t figured that part out yet either…maybe tonight I’ll mess around with it some! Have ya’ll played Sims before???

June Weekend

I’m addicted to Flavor ice icees right now….like bad..really BAD!!!
It’s getting REALLY hot outside. I need a kiddie pool or something to lay in..ha..ha..!!! I think we have decided to wait a bit on a house-at least a few more months and see what else turns up. We don’t want to rush into anything, and as much fun as it has been looking we want to make a smart decision. I finally have my cable back on after a couple days of it spazzing out! Caught up on some shows last night. Today we just went running around town and just chilled out. We went to the mall here and didn’t get anything, just had lunch at the food court and walked around. I love Williams Sonoma-actually I just love all kitchen appliances and gadgets period.

Sprinkles-Always makes me think of Summer for some reason!
gadgets
Uhm…I did get one thing at the Godiva store. If I want to splurge my diet then this is the best way to do it baby! Chocolixir…yummy!

These are from the other day-Twilight Sweethearts-I don’t really
like Sweethearts, but ya know…it’s for the sake of Twilight. The Blockbuster where we live now has to be the NICEST Blockbuster I’ve seen in my life! It has a full coffee bar, ice cream, slushy/drink, food/candy area, along with a lounge area inside.

Taggy-poo’d!

Thanks Ya’ll!

  • Wow! You guys have been so much help in the home buying process I can’t say enough! As first time home buyers we are really torn as to what to do. We looked at some more houses today and ultimately ended up back at the house shown below. We really REALLY love it and the agent is trying to work with us on the price…but if we can’t get it within our budget then we will just have to hold off a bit. That is fine with me as we can rent and continue to save until something we love in our price range comes up. I am just afraid of the interest rates going up soon! We are going to venture back out tomorrow and look at some more houses….see if anything turns up!
  • Also-I know I talk about my long drive to work a lot! LOL! And yes-I did interview for another job in Dallas, but ultimately I think I want to wait because there are actually three locations closer to where we will be living and I think it will be a better place for me…in the mean time I continue to commute, but that’s okay because I just crank up the radio and listen to my morning shows and before you know it I am there!

Thank you so much everyone for all your advice and honesty about your situations…I know the world is so uncertain right now and it’s definitely hard to make life changing decisions. Part of me just wants to continue to rent because I know if anything does happen we will be safe, the other part wants to take that next step….we shall see….

Love bunches – Becky
