.virtual coffee.



Happy Tuesday, my friends. It is WAY too hot for coffee, even the {virtual} kind, down here in the Sushine State, where Spring lasts for, oh, about 5 minutes. But I'll be glad to pour you a glass of sweet tea, or if you'd prefer, I'll even give you one of my cans of Diet Dr Pepper. And that, my friends, is true love.

Did you watch The Bachelorette last night? I am not even sure where to begin; which was worse, the guy who wore the mask the entire time, or the guy who got completely trashed and had to be practically carried to the limo?
And Bentley....ohhh, Bentley. Drama before the show even begins. First, let's discuss Bentley's daughter's name. I'm still hoping they just changed it for the show, to protect her real identity, because how could two adults agree to name a child Cozy?
Seriously? Cozy? That poor child will be teased for her entire life.
And then, in the sneak peeks of later episodes, he reveals himself to be the douchebag that Ashley was warned about. Seems like she should have listened!

Enough of that. I'm not quite sure if I can watch it this season. I'm very busy with my Wars. I'm really not a violent person, but I'm very into War shows right now. Cupcake Wars, Parking Wars, Storage Wars...if there is a War involved, I'm probably going to be watching. If there's food involved, that's even better.

Speaking of food, my vegetable garden is growing beautifully. Not producing yet, but thriving. I can't wait to eat the results! Our neighbors brought us over a huge bag of squash last week (as well as another dozen of farm-fresh eggs). We went through that stuff in a couple of days.

And yes, we still absolutely love our new place, thanks for asking. We have a beautiful gray fox hanging around now. We see him late at night. I guess he shares the woods with the rabbits, wild turkeys, deer, and chupacabras that seem to call this place home.

On another note, Andrew got a reprieve from seeing BM this past weekend. His soccer tournaments, which were out of town, coincided with the scheduled visit. On advice of our attorney, John called to offer a different time and place. It was refused, and subsequent phone messages to try to work something out were ignored. The time and place are flexible per the Judge's orders, and we did our part to try to make arrangements, so we're in the clear. Andrew was so incredibly relieved.

Do you have any fun plans going on for Memorial Day? We don't; it kind of snuck up on us.

Well, I guess I need to get up and get something done around here.

I hope you enjoyed your icy cold beverage. Have a great week, and go visit Lucky Number 13 for more {Virtual} Coffee.

I Have a Happy List.




I've seen a few of these Happy Lists in my recent travels 'round the blogosphere, and I decided to compile one of my own.

I am so blessed to have many things in my life that make me happy. The happy helps balance the crappy. Ya know?

So here's a list of stuff that makes me Happy.

1. Wearing my husband's hoodie. It is huge and soft and super warm. It makes me feel cozy.

2. Diet Dr Pepper. Especially when it's on sale. 12 packs are 4 for $10 at a grocery store near me right now. 4 for $10!!!

3. Speaking of which...good deals make me happy. I got several this weekend while outlet shopping; two very nice pair of jeans for $6.87 each! HELLO! A quesadilla maker for $17....two t-shirts for .99 cents each....I LOVE Deals!!

4. The sweetness and kindness my girls are showing to Andrew right now. Without my saying a word, they know he needs to be treated gently and are going out of their way to be good to him. They make me proud.

5. Any songs by P!nk. I love her.

6. Baby pygmy goats. I want one. Or a dozen. Either way.




7. Apple pie apples from a chocolate shop in St. Augustine. They're Granny Smith apples, dipped in caramel, then covered in white chocolate, then sprinkled with cinnamon sugar.
OhEmGeeeeee. Also, bringing three one home to enjoy later.

8. The new blog design that is currently being made for me by Minx Designs. She has showed me several sneak peeks and I am absolutely loving it! I'm so excited.


How about you?
What's making you happy these days?
