miscellany monday

It's Monday. But the good news is God has allowed me to enjoy another beautiful day with my kiddos, my husband, and blogging some randoms for all of you.  But before we get going on that, Carissa (the FAB woman behind miscellany monday) just welcomed her second miracle into the world, SAGE CHRISTIANA!  And she's just as gorgeous as her mommy.  You can see for yourself by clicking here.  How Carissa found time to blog after having a cesarean, I will never know.  Guess she's a tougher woman than me - or at least a better planner.  Carissa, so glad you and Miss Sage are doing well and thank you for allowing us a glimpse at your beautiful daughter.  Many blessings to you both!

Now, for my Monday rants randoms...

{ONE}  Our yard sale went very well!  We have very little left to cart off to Goodwill and made over $300!  But it was SO tiring and I'm glad it's over.

{TWO}  I have done a lot of quilting this weekend.  I'm very anxious to finish this one and start a new one.  I've been itching to sew something different as well.  I just can't seem to find the time to sit down at my sewing machine through the week.

{THREE}  We went to dinner Saturday night and Presley vomited all over Mike and the restaurant.  Luckily, we were sitting on the patio.  We had to get our dinner to go.  I left half my martini sitting on the table and half my salad.  We get home and she's fine - eating her brother's chicken and fries.  Never vomits again.

{FOUR}  Sunday morning Presley starts running a fever.  Around noon, Mike starts running a fever.  Shortly after noon, I start running a fever.  Keegan is the only one not running a fever.  ACK!

{FIVE}  Keegan starts swimming lessons today and I am praying no one vomits, no one is running a fever and everyone is happy when it's time to go.  Oh please, oh please, OH PLEASE!  

Now, given that Carissa just had a baby I'm not sure if she has MckLinky up and going today.  Knowing her, she does.  You can head over to her blog and link up your own randoms by clicking the logo above.  

Hope everyone has a great week!  

miscellany monday

I had planned on working on some posts over the weekend but that didn't happen. So thank goodness for Carissa at lowercase letters and her miscellany monday.  Otherwise, I'd be struggling for a post this Monday morning.  And I'm already struggling to keep my eyes open.  No more struggles.  Please.  By the way, loving the new button, Carrisa!  ;)

The idea is to post 5 completely random things in no particular order and then head over and link up at lowercase letters.  Off we go...

     1.  I didn't get any posts prepared this weekend because after Keegan's soccer game on Saturday      morning, we got all frisky and spontaneous and packed up the family and headed to Hot Springs, AR for an overnight trip.  We took the kids to Magic Springs a theme/water park all day yesterday and it was exhausting but SO fun!  THEY.  LOVED.  IT.  I love that we can still fly by the seat of our pants upon occasion.

     2.  I know that too much sun is not good for your skin but I secretly love it when I have tan hands and feet.  Jewelry and sandals of any kind always look better on tan hands and feet.  And fat.  I need to hop back on the workout train.

     3.  I gained new Twitter followers over the weekend which is always exciting.  New followers of any kind excite me.  I usually check out their profile, their site if it's listed and decide whether or not to follow back.  When trying to check out one profile, I got a message from Twitter telling me this account had been suspended.  You have to wonder what this person did to get his/her account suspended by Twitter and if I should be concerned that he/she is now following me.

     4.  Monday = laundry day.  I still hate laundry.  That hasn't changed and probably never will.  I will probably be 80 years old and still complaining about laundry on miscellany monday.

     5.  I really want to find time to be crafty this week.  I am itching to create something, though I'm not sure what.  Don't worry, though.  If it happens, there'll be a post.
