Freezing Fog and a Sad Goodbye =(

Well, since it was 62 on Friday, it was only fitting that Saturday and Sunday's highs only be in the 20s/30s with freezing fog, now wouldn't it? However, it can make for some cool shots. This one in black I took last night at my mother's house. The others were taken this am @ my house...

And now for the sad goodbye *sigh* My really good friend Jennifer pulled up stakes this am, headed for, of all places, Idaho. She's a wonderful friend, and her presence in my daily life will be greatly missed. I am just thankful that where she's going is only about 30 minutes from my Grandma, so I will be able to still see her from time to time!! Jen, I love you girl and will miss you terribly!

The Garage Saga

THIS IS MY GARAGE

THIS IS MY GARAGE ON DRUGS

THIS IS MY GARAGE AFTER A 1 DAY STINT IN REHAB WITH DR. MEL

ANY QUESTIONS????

(I wonder if it'll stay clean?!?!?!)

2 Days In ONE! Thursday/Friday

And they both involve Liv...First pic is from yesterday-This is routinely how she dresses up. Her dollar store hat, kitty ears from her Halloween costume, and Jake's Hawaiian lei LOL

The 2nd pic is from today. She loves to stack and line things up. Today it was all the cups from where I put all the kiddy cups. She also put some forks and baby spoons in there for good measure.

I haven't been very creative the last couple of days. My really good friend is moving on Sunday *Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh* so I've been trying to spend as much time with her as possible!

This is how my day started out...I hear Liv saying "Give a kiss? Give a kiss?" I turn around and she's trying to force a kiss on the poor dog. Can you see the look in Jo Jo's face? She's just humoring her. What you don't see is that right after I took the pic, the dog licked her tongue-Say it with me now, people-EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

Jake's had this stuffed cat (in the jacket lol) since he was 15mths old. I distinctly remember buying it. I was in a drug store buying IVF meds for our first IVF cycle after Jake, and he saw this cat-HAD.TO.HAVE.IT. There was no way around it. He STILL loves this cat. Lately he's been feeling the need to "care" for the cat. I think it stems from the fact that Santa refuses to bring him a real kitten for Christmas (I told Jake animals aren't allowed in Santa's sack-they'll fight :P ) Apparently he felt the need to get his heavy winter jacket off the hook and wrap "meow meow" in it for the night. It was in one of his shirts. Must've been too small ;-)

It's HOW HOT Outside?!!?!?!?!

Yep, you see it correctly-58 degrees in the middle of January! Now, I have to say, anyone who knows me knows I love the heat. I'd much rather be too warm than too cold. Lord, you can't shake that chill from your bones (unless you drink a 5th of whiskey, which I really am not keen on doing) HOWEVER, with all the cooties going around, this is not good! I've become such a germaphobe since Jake was so sick from January thru the end of March last year. That boy had everything from the flu, to ear infections, to the barfs. You name it, we probably had it in our house. So, this heatwave does nothing but send shudders down my back *sigh* Oh well...I guess I should enjoy it while it lasts. Give me two weeks and I'll be complaining about the cold! :p

Meet Jo Jo

This is Jo Jo, our dog, who bears a striking resemblence to Eddie Munster (look at that hairline lol) The poor dog puts up with so much abuse, between Jake and Liv, I'm surprised she hasn't had a nervous breakdown. She really is a good dog. I think she only puts up with the kids because she loves adults lol. Isn't she sweet?? She'd be sweeter if she'd learn how to freaking lick less. Lord help me, that drives me insane, but so many things do that anyway-What's 1 more???

When a Plastic Golf Club Becomes a Weapon of Mass Bubble Destruction...(Sunday)

Hank got out the bubble machine for Foofs today. She decided to take the golf club to them. Poor bubbles didn't stand a chance!
