Over Myself

Okay, so maybe my disappointment and frustration is gone.....about that....for now....

So, I had yesterday and today off. Yesterday I played with Rachel and washed clothes and cleaned the house. Today.....played with Rachel and made hairbows. I FINALLY FIGURED OUT HOW TO MAKE HAIRBOWS!!!! I have had all of the stuff for awhile but just now felt like I could sit down and do it while Rachel was taking a nap. I made several and hope to make more once I get some more supplies. Rachel already has a ton of them...I don't know why I feel the need to make more....BUT....I DO!

I am wanting to do something special for our anniversary in August. It isn't any big special anniversary - our 4th. Any suggestions? The in-laws are going to come and watch Rachel while we do something special. I am thinking a nice hotel, dinner (told my nurse friend, Mike, that we would try Houston's - he swears by it), maybe some kind of recreation....movie, miniature golf, bowling....something. We are wanting to stay in the Metroplex...what do you all think???

Work tomorrow.....hopefully people will keep their attitudes at home or wherever they originated....I am not feeling like I am going to be in the mood tomorrow! YES! I AM a little moody right now! =)

We always go to a restaurant in Dallas (Bishop Arts District), called Hattie's.

It's our Anniversary Dinner spot. Has been for the past 4 years.

Friends...Forever!

What is a friend?  Webster defines a friend as: a person whom one knows, likes, and trusts. It goes on to talk about a friend being a supporter.  I would have the tendency to assume that everyone has at least one friend...maybe not a best friend or perhaps maybe not even a close friend but someone that they can call a friend.  I know that difference personality types lend themselves for more friends than others.  I am a sanguine which means that I have a lot of people that I consider to be my friend.  I have always been the type of person that needs and wants friends...people around me who love me, encourage me, and support me.  On the flip side of this, I have always had a hard time trusting people so I tend to be skeptical of people.  Unfortunately, a friend described me pretty accurately this morning.  She said that I (and she is the same way) have the tendency to dislike people until I have a reason to like them.  No, not proud of it...but I am just skeptical.  I have been hurt

Replace My Complaining Attitude

If you know anything about me, you know that I am blunt.  I am straight-forward, to the point, and to a fault, honest.  This is something that I have often wanted to change about myself.  Let's face it, there are things about each one of us that we would change, and let me be clear, there are MANY other things I would change but becoming more gentle has always been something I have longed for. I have had people tell me that I should be proud of this.  They wish they could be more assertive like me.  I guess there are good points to this type of characteristic but more times than not, I find myself getting into trouble because of it.   Piggy-backing on that character istic  flaw is the fact that I am a complainer.  I would rather whisper that but again, if you know me, you probably didn't fall in the floor in disbelief that I just typed that.  It is hard to admit.  It is hard to tell a world (okay a few people) that read this that I complain.  How off-putting is that?  I g

FUN STUFF!!

We have had a fun couple of days! I worked on July 4th and Rachel and Daddy stayed home doing nothing...I think they enjoyed it! Saturday was pretty uneventful.....we went to Target and bought some containers so that I could put all of my clothes away that are TOO BIG!!! YAY!! It was also a sneaky way to allow my husband to see that I really don't have too many clothes!!! None of them fit! =) Sunday was church and we came back here and relaxed all day. Here is a picture of Rachel from Sunday. Rachel's dress was adorable....went to her ankles.... Brice had yesterday off too so we all went to Hawaiian Falls waterpark in Mansfield for a little water fun after Rachel's nap. It was a lot of fun except for the part where I fell down the stairs leading into the lazy river and in an attempt to keep my child's head above water (I was holding her), I tumbled down about 4 stairs, twisted my ankle, hit my knee, and scraped up the side of my leg all while swallowing a lot of water.
