My Current Covet

I realize, "thou shalt not covet" so let's call it visualizing...
It goes off road. It can have a potty inside. It sleeps 6. It has the storage deck. I'm in love.

Middle Class Gets a Sniff

Scott was encouraged to attend a sponsor's party for his work last week. He and I made our way just north of the Park Cities to make our appearance at the gala. Now, we thought it was a banquet venue; you know those places you can rent by the hour for weddings and anniversaries? We planned to make our appearance and head out. After we walked up the gated drive, past the immense lawns, and through the enormous front doors, Scott and I were greeted and invited to look around. First, we inspected the large library saying, "What if this is someone's home?" But, we didn't really think it was because it was so formal...sort of like a museum. I mean, this place could have been any governor's mansion or even the White House itself.

Sure enough, it was a home. We met the owner later in the evening. He is a "US Top 100" attorney and his wife is a trial lawyer herself, if you are wondering like me where they got all the cash. After the jig was up, so to speak, we really looked around-and took pictures!

At the end of the party, we finished our drinks and hors d'oeuvres and walked out. As we drove away, I made the statement to Scott, "We are SO middle class."

People Really Live Here

Cool Bling!

No, this hot chick isn't me, but she is sporting the newest coolest jewel-y item: Military Dog Tags with flair -from Ode Tags & Gifts .

Please check out this site because not only is my dear pal Brooke creating and selling these, but she's also donating profits to charity. Seriously. I've already got one, and it's too cute. Mother's day is around the corner, make it happen! p.s. is this kid cute or what?

Where Was This When I Was A Teen?

So, they now have "Sport Tampons" huh? Well, isn't that fantastic. I mean, when I was 14 tampons sure weren't "sporty"! Geesh today's girls have it made with the cool sports bras, sporty-cute clothes, and now even tampons are cool! Well, I suppose I'll just say "go get 'em" to the next generation of athletic girls: Go use your rad cell phone to text message your mom and tell her to pick you up some Super Sick Playtex Sports.

Sidenote #2: I know someone who is well into their 20's and still won't use tampons, but CHOOSES pads. (You know who you are!) Now, I just would like to field a few comments from "experts" aka: women, on if this is kosher.

And...I'm out...

Just Thinking

Spring is upon us, except it is unusually cold here this Easter weekend in the great state of Texas. I absolutely love Spring. It is definitely my favorite season. Sure summer is my time frolic, but it is so hot. I don't like sweating so that is why summer finishes 2nd. Fall to me is depressing because school starts up, the pool is too cold to swim in, and our friends that coach football can't do fun stuff on the weekends anymore. Winter is bad because it is grey...dead grass, leafless trees, cloudy weather; oh and I can't forget: Scott constantly complains that it is cold and dreary. Now, that guy loves him some summer time.

Back to what I like...Spring only lasts about 2 months here I'd say. Oh I cherish the green grass , sunny 70's weather, and the thunder storms while they last. Spring offers the time to bust out your shorts, or keep the jeans on ... player's choice! I like the freedom Spring brings to start over and conquer whatever you like as summer draws near.

This year, Spring has been busy and it has just begun. Before I can get a pedicure, Summer will be here and I'll be longing for cool calm weather again. Maybe that is why I hit the road during the summer for adventures and travels...I'm eternally searching for my spring-like happy place.

Emmitt and Pudge would be in their little dog happy place, and I'd be giddy if we had some of these.
