The Grasshopper has lots to learn...

When it comes to a flour fight.....

I guess I have a few years on mini-Wezul of being on the front lines of the flour fight.  However, she did get a good first shot; however, with one fell swoop...this battle was ended....

Fear is a good thing.  However, I think she won't be as gun shy the next time around.......

YEAH! SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And it is still falling..........

Winter Wonderland!


Yeah!  We got snow...we really did!!!  I mean the kind of snow that has covered the grass!!!  We will actually have to shovel our driveway!  Yeah...the third time is the charm!!!!!  With our third snow of the year, I'm beginning to think I live in Iowa...oh wait...I don't...they are calling for us to reach 58 degrees by the end of the week.

Merry Christmas to All....

Yeah!  It's that time of year again!  We are so ready to enjoy some time off from work without having to travel.  :)  Yeah us!  We both get tomorrow off, and various days will be taken off together next week.  We are going to not only be visited by the jolly old man himself from the North Pole (yes, Wezul sorta behaved himself this year), but mini-Wezul will be flying in for a brief stay over Christmas to NC.

Boy!  Will her arms be tired...it is a long way from Iowa...hahaha!!! It's Christmas, it is mandatory you all laugh at that one!

Depending on how many feet of snow we get over this weekend, the blog may be very active.  Hahaha!!!  There is a shortage of eggs, bread and milk in all the grocery stores.  ;)  The snow should make for a very fun and interesting tailgating experience for all on Sunday.

Dream Come True...Thanks Poppa P

THANK YOU!!!!!
He did it again!  I have always wanted a secretary desk.  In fact, Wezul and I have scoured the internet and local stores for one.  We could never find what we were looking.  For us, it is always difficult because we have to both love something before we will buy it.

However, we both love this desk.  It is suits both of our taste, plus, it's made by Poppa P...something that can be passed on and on through our family.  However, there became one point of contention regarding the desk.  Where should the handles go on the bottom doors?  I wanted the middle (to remain symmetric with the other handles) and Wezul wanted to place them near the top corners (to make it easier to open and much to my dismay).  Haha!!  After much discussion in Iowa, we decided to live with the piece and wait to decide later.  

I had one card up my sleeve.  My dear hubby was mistaken when he thought the knobs on our other cabinets were near the top.  However, I knew otherwise.  I knew I would NEVER buy a hutch like that.  However, I also know Wezul well enough to know he wouldn't believe me until he saw it for himself.  So after our long trek home, I walk into our house and I look...and I knew from that moment...I am standing my ground...I would rather live without knobs than to put them near the top.  

Our knobs on the doors WILL go in the middle...Wezul for his part has agreed...the middle of the doors win.  :)   I would like to think I won because he realized my suggestion looks better, but on very rare occasions, Wezul will let me have my way when I can prove there are other "idiots" in the world who think like me....haha!!!

I can't wait to finish stocking the desk.  :)

Mackie the Macbook


Our time together has come to an end.  You have guided and protected me through cyberspace like no other laptop has ever done.  You always worked for me, you never caught a cold, or had a blue screen of death.  I had to fight for you, and you proved your worth.  You were there when I first started this blog.  You were there when we went to the Apple promised land in Cupertino.  You will always have a special place in my heart...I know you are going to a good home...though not the home I thought...I know you will convert another PC family to the MAC way of life...for that is your path in this life...to bring people home.............
