Oh Sweet Jesus!  I have been horrible at Blogging!

I have GOT to get better at this....and I say it all of the time!

Maybe one day, right?

Hope things are well with all of you.  I do stop in and check on several of your blogs and what all is going on in your lives.

Lately, I've been working on some crochet stuff and trying to get my craft room organized.

It's taking a LOT of effort and a LOT of time.  Unfortunately, I'm the daughter of a HOARDER and I have inherited a lot of those traits.

Too many irons in the fire...Too much on my plate...

Tickle Me Tuesday!

Welcome to Tickle Me Tuesday!

I want to share things that make me giggle that I've seen online or that I've experienced in real life.

Hope you enjoy today's picks....

#1.  This is the BEST and funniest thing I've read in a long time.  This post has floated around Facebook and Pinterest.
If you've read it, read it again.  It surely won't hurt to laugh again!!!

#2.  I have a really good friend who's kindof FAMOUS around here.  His name is Freddie Combs and maybe you saw him on The X Factor's auditions this past season?
Anyway, about 2 years ago, Big Daddy, Robbie and myself were visiting with them in Tennessee and I recorded this video.  Hope you like it.

Finally, I have laughed so hard, so many times at Jack Vale.  Here's my favorite of his videos....The Farting Old Man I and II.

Wishing you a Happy Tuesday and wondering why/how two out of three of my videos ended up being about farts....Oh well!

Seven Months Ago or So....

WOWZA!
Has is seriously been almost seven months ago since I was here?  Looks that way.
I am so sorry---but---life has happened.

Thought I'd share something I am hooked on right now.
Last Monday, on Veteran's Day I went with my mama and my sister to The Southern Christmas Show in Charlotte.
There was a lady there making bows and things with ribbon.  I was absolutely spellbound and ended up spending way too much at her booth!
Anyway...
Here's one of her quick videos if you're interested in watching!

Hope you'll come back and visit my blog again!  I'll try to get on here more often.

Also, here's how Robbie's doing on one of our Christmas Cantata Songs.....

I am just in love with this sweet boy!!

Bless it!

Hey Y'all!
Hope you're doing well today!
Anything exciting going on your way?
Robbie broke his little foot this past Monday night and is confined to a boot for at least the next two weeks.  After that, we'll go back for another x-ray and see what type of healing is taking place.
Here's a picture of Robbie and our friend Vernon last night at church.  Vernon has broken his big toe and will be having surgery next Tuesday.  Both boys will appreciate all prayers!
6 more school days left!  I think I'm gonna make it!
Y'all have a wonderful evening!

Here's our two week totals:

Ronnie has lost 27 lbs.

and

I have lost 12 lbs.

This is one of the hardest things we have EVER done, but we're doing it TOGETHER and that makes it fun!

Last night we really wanted to walk, but a huge lightening display was taking place.  Thunder was super loud as well, so we stayed inside.  Fortunately there was no monsoon but it was already after nine when the lightning decided to stop.

Hopefully we'll be able to walk after Robbie's last soccer practice of the season tonight!

Weigh-in on Thursday...

Guess what?
Big Daddy and I are on a BIG DIET!  We weighed in yesterday afternoon and I've lost 6lbs. this week and Big Daddy lost 14!  I'm so proud of US!
We'e been walking around my home church's parking lot in the evenings and I've only had a soft drink 3 times in the past week.  I'm drinking LOTS of water and feel like my eyeballs are going to float off my face some days.

Yesterday was Robbie's Adoption Day also!  It's our 5th year anniversary of legally being parents. We enjoyed the afternoon at Monkey Joe's and he wanted CiCi's pizza for supper.  It's hard to only eat 1 piece and a BIG ole salad instead of piling pizza all over the plate.

We'll be ok though....it'll be WAY worth it when we're both around to watch him graduate and then get married someday!

Y'all have a wonderful weekend!
