Wordless Wednesday

Galveston

So, we made a practice run to Galveston on Memorial Day in anticipation of Love Fest '08. *note: If you haven't ordered your commemorative T-shirt, supplies are limited.

We kinda wanted to get the whole beach thing out of our systems so we can concentrate on other planned activities on our anniversary, if you know what I mean. Do you know what I mean?

Anyway, the red flags were flyin' due to the high surf on Monday. There was a lot of this:

This poor girl spent her afternoon blowing her whistle and running up and down the shore to get the stoopid surfers people out of harm's way.

We stayed close to shore and allowed our freaks delightful children to pummel each other frolic in the surf.

And here? They're just resting their eyes. They're not sleepy. No way.

"Zoo-rific" or "Sweatapoloosa"

I got to meet my super cool and fabulous online homeschool teaching buddy at the zoo last Friday. Here is photographic evidence that she exists! *Please pardon the blown out pic. It was hot and I couldn't be bothered with details of photography. We are both much more attractive and successful looking in person.


This is our posse.

How cute is this?
I don't get to be around babies very much anymore and this one, quite simply, rocked!

Oh, and him?

He's smiling on the inside...

Thanks, Debra, for the adult companionship. My kids are still talking about how much fun they had! Aside from the 248% humidity, I had a lovely time! Let's try it again in November! When it's cooler. And less humidity-y.

My mother is alleging that this is a baby photo of me. I think my birthday post made her feel bad. The blue blanket is a little suspicious...

Hmmmm...

So it says, "Do not drive or operate machinery while taking this medication". Do they think I drive this?

Or this?



Or maybe this?

I just thought that was interesting. I drive one of these:

So look out if you see me comin'.


I am better. I just have this lingering sinus issue. My sphenoid sinus is inflamed and putting pressure on my right eye. This is a self diagnosis, mind you. I prescribed myself an eye patch just for fun. My kids said no. So I'm sticking to a dose of Sudafed here and there and Tylenol. I'm rationing the Sudafed, though. Due to the amount I've taken in the last two weeks, I can't buy products with pseudoephedrine in the state of Texas for a while. I think the ATF or DEA is watching the house.


Let me just say, I'm supposed to go here for my anniversary next weekend:

It was bad enough to be sick for The Blessed Day of Birth '08. Heads will roll if I'm not 100% for Love Fest '08. I will need my strength back for planned activities.
