Total randomness of course but I just wanted to record that today is the first official snow of 2009. woohoo I know you want pics. Well, I ain't took any yet. I been out and about town all day like the good little snow bunny that I am. LOL

Yep, I'm one of those crazy people that DOES NOT stay home in inclement weather. I make an excuse to go out. I love the snow. Other than that life is good. Thanksgiving was great. Food was fabulous. There were only 7 of us this year but we had enough food for 40 people. LOL Seriously- not kidding.

Been doing alot of reading n stuff. Been doing alot of everything BUT writing. Been taking a break from that.

Hope everyone else out there in La La Land is doing okay.

Lots of love to everyone.

Just wishing everybody out there a Happy Thanksgiving! Love to everyone!

been doing great. slacked off on the cooking and baking to do some reading. haven't done much writing but that's okay. been kicking some ideas around in my head though. haven't put any of it to paper yet.

things are going okay. been trying to occupy myself since i cut back on work. the weather here has been rather nice. other than that nothing new really.

i hope everyone out there is doing alright. L- i haven't heard anything from ya. i hope you are doing alright.

It is only Thursday and I've already read 3 novels.

I've read

Lord of the Dead
Catcher In The Rye
Olive's Ocean

Catcher In The Rye & Olive's Ocean are on the Banned Book list. (It's banned book week at my library)

I'm thinking I will find something else to read.... hmmmm what to read what to read....

Yay! it's here. Been curled up with a good book most of the day. Been reading a book called Lord of the Dead by Tom Holland. His theory is that Lord Byron (the poet) was a vampire. MUAHAHAHAHAH very interesting.....


anyways- nothing special planned for today. it's raining of course. just planning no chilling out.

lots of love to everyone

Thanks for all the birthday wishes!

Hailey's Birthday was fun. I baked her a beautiful cake with flourescent pink icing trimmed in black. (I know my spelling sucks) It was really pretty. Our anniversary on Sept. 10th was great too. 10 years! woohoo

My 30th birthday is on Sept. 28th. UGH. It too shall pass. LOL

Other than that- nothing to report. Just looking for more things to bake!

ciao!

L-- still waiting on your response babe!
:-)

First day of September. YAY! September always marks the new year for me. Well, for a lot of reasons.

1> My anniversary--- IT'S #10 THIS YEAR. Sept. 10th is our 10th anniversary. Damn we're gettin' old
2> Hailey's birthday. Her birthday is the 9th. HAPPY BDAY BABY GIRL!
3> My brother's birthday. His birthday is Sept. 10th
4> My step-daughter's birthday. Sept. 17th. WOOHOO TABBY #17
5>My Birthday. UGH big 3-0 on Sept. 28th

So yeah, I can't wait for this month. It's the most exciting month of the year for me. Plus, the weather is already starting to change. The evenings are much calmer and cooler and the leaves are patiently awaiting to begin their yearly turn.

As for me- been taking a break from everything. Just working PRN doing lots of stuff around the house and lots of family time. This past time of me getting sick really put things into perspective for me. I need to slow down. WAAAAYYYY DOWN. My lungs aren't going to hold out forever- so it's literally time I start enjoying every breath I take.

Will be joining up at the health club at the hospital soon. Swimming looks like my best bet. Definitely gotta work on builiding up my lungs and STOP ALL THE STRESS EATING.

Other than that- life is good. It's nice to be able to actually enjoy things like cooking now.

Will update more. Lots of love! Now I'm off to the library (my favorite place here recently.)

It's so hot outide you could melt butter. Delicate skin. Must hide.

I'm here guys!!! I've just been out sick. Will get back to you soon.

Love love love

Stef

i have severe muscle and joint pain and stiffness. what the hell do YOU do when you get stiff an sore to relax??? i've tried everything i can think of. it's impossible to get the knots outta my muscles. i feel like a tree trunk. i think that's why i can't think straight- my neck is so knotted up

i think i'm going to permanently close up shop here

This day has been perfect. Spent it at the lake swimming and fishing and playing on the beach and riding bikes. Man my ass is tired now. *sigh* More fun in store tomorrow too!

I'm off to start Part III in my sestina series. Wish me luck everybody!!! I think this one will be a double sestina. WONK WONK

Today is my hubby's 40th birthday. HEHEHEHEEHEHEHE

sucks to be him!

I wonder why this is....

everytime that I actually take the TIME & EFFORT to sit down and write a serious piece of poetry.... nobody responds to it. BUT if I just half-ass in a few seconds a piece that's humorous- everybody loves it.

HMMMMMMMM.....

that's totally frustrating to me!

there goes her badonkadonk
gyratin' like cheap honky tonk
better catch that ghetto booty
backin' up that downtown cutie

I'll light romantic candles just for you
I'll set up the table just for us two
I'll make sure to put out all the lights
I'll slip on the stockings and high-heel shoes

We'll dance away into the dusky night
You'll whisper sweet kisses to me- delight
with you could never be delayed too long
We'll dance away into the dusky night

You'll lean in and mouth the words to our song
You'll graze my hair as we shuffle along
You'll get drunk on the smell of my perfume
delight could never be delayed too long
