Saturday Fun





We had a super day Saturday! It was a long rainy day filled with busyness.
We visited the new farmer's market in town. It is so nice to finally have a farmer's market on our side of town! Then we went to the Hot Rods for batting practice- which was rained out, but we visited with friends and ate lunch- so we had fun. Then we stopped at an art fair on the square and found these sweet duck tape flower pencils and pens. We bought a pencil for our niece Lillie's recital which we attended that night. It was such a busy fun day!

Franklin Drive-In

We went with Mollie and the kids to the Franklin drive-in. It's the first time Billy and I had been there and it was super fun!! I can't wait to go again. We watched Karate Kid and Eclipse.

Nail Polish

I have been crazy about nail polish lately... I just got bright purple and lime green. I LOVE them!!! And it's not at all as strange as I thought to have lime green toenails!

New Shoes



Today Tony took Billy and I out on the town to buy new shoes- Which both of us REALLY needed!! We went to Unger's Shoe Store where I got two pair of new shoes that I really like and are quite comfortable, so I will be able to wear them to work! I bought a pair of Unstructured Clark Un.Fasten and a pair of Bella~Vita Penelope Bone Nappa shoes. I have never been to a local shoe store before where they measured your foot, helped you put on the shoes and loosened them for you... It was really nice... They wrapped up my shoes so nicely when I bought them! I felt like they were really some special shoes!!!! Their customer service was awesome and I can see why they have been in business for so long!

Fuzzy Duck Mug



















Today we went to go get coffee from Starbucks... We always take our own mug and today mine got broke... My favorite mug that Billy got me when we were newly dating and he was still at Morehead. I know it's silly, but I'm really kind of upset. I know the girl really felt bad and all I could say was accidents happen- I know she didn't mean to do it. They offered to replace the mug and after a few minutes I said okay and got a new one... but I still felt that it just wouldn't replace my favorite Fuzzy Duck mug. The Fuzzy Duck mug was a one of a kind kind of mug... crafted by a local artist in Morehead... and bought on a whim during a date for me... So, in an effort to keep my cherished mug, I brought it home with the hope that I could repair it and use it as a planter, but there is a piece missing and the other pieces aren't fitting together in the right way...

24 Hours

I am declaring that we have a problem... Either A: I want to do too much in a day! or B: There aren't enough hours in a day! I'm going with the not enough hours part... I would like to have a conversation with God and ask for a few more to please be inserted...

Spring Day





Today was such a wonderful weekend day. We got up went to the farmers market where we bought some purple tomatoes, yellow peppers, and strawberries to plant in the garden. Then we came home and I fell asleep on the couch watching TV. In the afternoon we leisurely went out for groceries. After bringing them home and putting them away we were off again to go to Hobby Lobby for yarn. We spent way too much money on more yarn for the stashes. And then to Greener Groundz for dinner. It was a really great day!!

IPOD Touch

I am addicted to Paige's IPOD Touch. The way you can play on the internet. The games that can be downloaded. I just played Pac Man and now we are playing Checkers. There is also a really cool way to look at what you are eating every day. You can download free episodes of various shows. Download book and audio books. Listen to online music, public radio from so many places, and seemingly so much more... So cool.

Free Makeup!!!


So exciting!!!!!!!!!! I love free stuff. So, today, I went to Macy's and got some free product. There was a law suit and as a settlement they are giving products away. I got moisturizer and night repair stuff. Free product, simple, but makes my day a little brighter!

The Moon, Jupiter, and Venus


Look at the sky! Venus, Jupiter, and the moon are the closest together they have been in a long time. Read all about it at National Geographic. "In fact, some historians think that a similar conjunction between Jupiter and Venus in 2 B.C. may be the source of the "star of Bethlehem" story related in the Bible." Pretty cool!!!

GetHuman.com

I hate when I get stuck in what I often refer to as automated hell, you know when you keep being put through to another computerized voice that can't understand you.... Well, we just ran across this website GetHuman. It may be really useful!!!!!!!!! Excitement!

Digital Wifi Photo Frame

Coolest thing!!! A digital photo frame that connects to the internet. You can get online and send pictures to someone else's photo frame. I think this is so cool because you could upload photos from one house to another no matter where you are and it is... Super cool!!!!

Doll



I just feel strange............

Dramatic

Sometimes I feel like I'm over dramatic. I'm watching youtube videos on emo and it just makes me giggle a little. And yes, I am again avoiding my homework. I was reading about Bowling Green, KY and trying to write this paper but I really would rather be on the blog or youtube.

New Computer

So, last night I had to go get a new computer. My computer was to expensive to fix... so Best Buy gave me another one. Good, huh? Well, truth be told I just really wanted my old one back. My settings were all done, I had information on there (most of it is backed up but some is not), I had downloaded programs I liked... Now, I had to start all over.
Here is more of the story. I go in to get my replacement computer and they let me pick from the things on the floor-- sounds nice right? Well, not when they tell you that there is only one computer you can choose and it is almost nothing like the one you originally had. I was so upset. Then they told me that I could pay the difference and get a different one. This did not help, because I really didn't have the money to spend. It was a hard decision and I felt trapped... I have tons of homework and I just need a computer.
Finally, after Paige helped go over specs and use her knowledge (and Ashley looked some stuff up on the internet), I made a choice. I had to pay $150 more, I talked them down $50, but I think I'm going to be just as happy, if not happier with this computer. It has surround sound speakers (which sound was always one of my complaints with the other laptop), a number pad (which I love), more memory, and more hard drive space. I chose to get an Acer Aspire 6930.
