13 Random Things I Can See From Where I'm Sitting
I know! So Creative, eh?

  1. Nicky, my two year old, who is sitting on my lap watching Go Diego Go.
  2. My new Gardenia Plant. Hopefully I won't kill it soon.
  3. A bookshelf full of mostly unfinished scrapbooks. Really need to finish Nicky's before the little one gets here. Or at least get it up to date.
  4. The Puppy Computer. Not that he'll play it. He's much to set on sitting on my lap watching Diego at the moment.
  5. A case full of thimbles that belonged to my Granny.
  6. A shelf with the unity candle, framed invitation, goblets, and cake topper from my wedding.
  7. Lots of pictures of Nicky.
  8. A carpet shampooer which I need to use on my rugs. It's out because this weekend we had a slight flood… I walked into the bathroom to check my laundry and stepped into an inch of water that had run out into the living room, the extra bedroom, and the nursery. Good thing we were planning on tearing the carpet out anyway…If you flush my toilet too hard it keeps running, which is annoying but not that big a deal…as long as when you flush a bunch of tissue down you make sure it actually goes down. Now I'm not pointing fingers but the guilty party cleaned it up so at least there is that.
  9. An itty bitty table and chairs with Pooh Bear.
  10. A Mahogany dining table that has two leaves so it closes to be pretty darn small, which fits perfectly in my small house. I got it on Ebay for 75 bucks. I was very proud!
  11. Nicky's Pack N Play which I desperately need to clean out, because it seems to be a toy dumping ground at the moment.
  12. My DDR (Dance Dance Revolution) Pads which have not gotten much workout lately…
  13. A big frog that my husband gave me for Valentine's day, but that Nicky has since claimed as his wrestling partner.

Great list! I have yet to think of anything. I am hoping something will come to me while it is still Thursday.

Sounds like Nicky's taking over -- which is how it should be.

Enjoy Diego... I'm trying to wean #2 from him.

You forgot to mention the claws on the feet of that table! :P

It is amazing what you can see when you pay attention. We all have our own little worlds.

13 of my Favorite Quotes from Fiona O'Sithein I'm too darn sleepy to be creative tonight so I'm drawing on my ready-made list. Not to be confused with the one I did about the first lines of the chapters in Fiona. Those weren't nearly my favorites. Is it narcissistic to have favorite quotes that you wrote yourself? When I'm giggling my head off at something I wrote, my husband always looks at me kinda funny. Oh, well if it is, then here is me reveling in narcissism. :-D May you enjoy them as much as I do. 1. Fiona: “What? You think just because I don’t have any magic like my brother or super strength like you people that I’m useless?” 2. Bonnie: “He’s not a heretic, is he?” Fiona: “Isn’t everyone these days?” 3. Fiona: “No one wants to be the one to deflower the king’s daughter.” 4. Fiona: “Yes, Beltran, you’re a vampire. How could anyone forget it when you’re reminding them of it ten times a day? You are the only vampire I know who seems to obsess ab...

Thirteen Things that take My Breath Away 1. This little Guy... Need I say More? 2. Eden Falls at the Lost Valley This picture doesn't even remotely do it justice. The first time I saw Eden Falls was in the middle of the summer after a big rain storm so there was water absolutely gushing from it! It made getting into the cave at the top somewhat more difficult than usual, but it was absolutely beautiful. I had never seen anywhere like it in my life. I thought places like that only existed in wall calenders! 3. The Ocean The vastness of it. The sound of the waves. The smell of it. That humid, cool wind that blows off it. The way it moves. Pretty much everything about it! *Lesley desperately needs a trip to the beach* 4. The Ozark Mountains My home! The very first time I came here I just knew this was where I wanted to be. I grew up on the delta with nothing but rice fields and flat land as far as the eye can see. There is a place on the drive up the mountain where you come around a c...

Well, I had been planning on putting up 13 pictures from my vacation, but my computer crashed yesterday and has to go to the doctor. I hope they can fix it, because I haven't backed up those 450 pictures I took. :-( I did upload all the really cute ones of Nicky to snapfish though, so at least there is that. This brings me to the question I have for y'all...Does anyone have a good gremlin banishing ritual they would like to share with me??? Just this week, my fridge, my car and my computer have all stopped working. The car was just a battery problem, and it has been replaced. I still don't know what is wrong with the computer or the fridge yet though. Without pictures but still in honor of my vacation... 13 Things I Did in Denmark Fed the ducks, swans, and geese at Damhus Lake. Nicky loved this! He was absolutely entranced by the birds. His favorite part (and keep in mind, he is a boy) was throwing the bread so that it landed on the swans back and then laughing hyst...
