Testing, testing 1,2,3

Is this thing still on?????

The Big One.

Check out the big fish I caught...well that's not totally correct, my sister helped me a little bit (like I say, if you don't believe me, prove otherwise)--

Then of course we had the honors of cutting him up (yes, we have manly arms, we can't help it, it doesn't prove ANYTHING, we caught that fish, WE CAUGHT IT!)...

Then we cooked him...

And then we ate him. Darn he was good.

He was a big fish, I'd say around 20 pounds or so.

Off we go.

So I'm back to the lake today for a few days. I just KNOW the requests for BBF are gonna POUR in while I am gone. Hope I have enough time to filter when I return home (which won't be long).

Where Have I Been...and other questions.

Well first off you may now congratulate me on my new status as High Speed Internet Girl. Quite happy 'bout that. So for the quick update...where have a I been?

Well mostly here at the lake.



I have a really nice little campsite right off the water. So we've been there. And though it sounds so nice and looks so nice. I hate camping. Loathe, detest, HATE it. I hate dirty. I hate bugs. I hate no room service. I hate camping. Stinky, gross, dirty camping.


Secondly, I finally sucumbed to Facebook. And it confuses me greatly. Like do I really hafta accept everyone who wants to be my friend? I am not a friendly girl. I mean mostly I like people just fine. It's not personal. But there are few who I need to keep in constant contact with. So is it rude to not accept? Someone tell me.

And finally, just thought I'd like everyone know that I my best friend Jaime broke up with me. Yup. Just dumped me via cat. So I now have an opening in the department for anyone who might like to apply. Commence applying....now.

3 Things I Love.

Here are three things I love:

1. Various handbags/totes: Can you have too many? No I think not. Here is a new little number I got yesterday from my sister-in-law for mother's day. Isn't it great?
(Which does remind me, Wilma, that I am waiting for a posting on all your new bags.)

2. Paper products: I love stationary, pens, pencils, stickie notes, sharpies...once I get to the stationary aisle of a store I'm there forever. Here is a new little set I bought myself. The small one I am using up way to quickly and I think I'd better go and stockpile a few more like it for future usage.


3. The color chocolate brown. And isn't it great how the new handbag and the paper product feature my favorite color??!! Sometimes life works out. Incidentally by the end of the week my house doors will be painted the featured brown-like coloring. I did them in black. That doesn't seem right. So I am re-doing them.

Well there's a little bit about me.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!

A special Happy Birthday posting to my favorite KittyCat! Proving that at long last I have found a Cat I actually like.

Did I say 'like'? I meant LOVE!!!

Happy Birthday my friend--I really do love you.

From the land of Oz!

We have the GREATEST company at the farm right now! It's been so much fun having (some of ) the Oliver Family here. Of course no one has tried to knock themselves out on open windows just to out-do me...yet. But there was a race between me and Carlene to see who could get stuff on the table faster. Well I guess it was a one-sided race in all reality. But still I won!

Anyway...it's so great to have them here! My children are in LOVE with the blonde one pictured above. And so far I have managed to make her cry, twice. So that's pretty good.
