Had to make sure, huh?

lazy days.

The husband was in Reno and
the best friend was in Colorado this weekend.

As for me, I was with this kiddo.

The Tiggster doesn't play well with other dogs

Everybody, soon or late, 

sits down to a banquet of consequences.

Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn.

melody.

"No matter whatever comes to me,

I've got my own brand of company."

hushed.

Well, if I tell you, it's no longer a secret, is it?

for awhile.

 No worries, no thoughts, no responsibilities...

Just solitude.

Let me have these moments.

missin' you like crazy.

i dig.

sudden.

When you least expect it....

Change, it comes and catches you unaware.

prove it.

You say so much, yet you do so little.

life happens.

cute song.

the obvious.

Don't ask.

You already know the answer.

for the better.

 So it got a little messy...

But at least now you have some color in your life.

Totally worth it, right?

blue.

You can take your cool off.

You are amongst friends there is no need to pretend.

Thanks for keeping it real, yo!!

orange county.

One of those rare songs that I never get tired of listening to.

yum.

Man, did that hit the spot. 

Diep went to New Orleans to celebrate Mardi Gras.

She was kind enough to bring back a King Cake.

I guess this means I should be nicer to her ;)

prepared.

I'm ready when you are.

unaffected.

Dust your shoulders...

Those hateful words will slide right off.

next to me.

I find that I favor Emeli Sande's song choices.

truths.

Not what you expected, huh?

Reality can do that....

cheers.

Tommy and I don't celebrate Valentine's Day

i will always love you.

Pretty, isn't it?

it comes.

Snow in Texas....

So pretty to look at...yet so cold to be in.

duly noted.

I believe that's a warning. 

You may want to heed it.

we are young.

"Tonight we are young...so let's set the world on fire.

We can burn brighter than the sun."

always.

Good days, bad days....never a day without  a book.

ungrateful.

Choices...it could be a lot worse.

Quit your crying, yo.

safe and sound.

i dig this cover.

it crumbles.

A moment of weakness is all it takes. 

tsk..tsk..tsk.

Assumption......
The perfect ingredient for a disaster.

somebody else.

i would love to suck the lips off his face.

At the end of the day,

you're still you.

weekend wrap-up.

Van, you better take good care of her!!

 How do we cope with the loss of a friend??

Understanding them might be a good start.

If it were only that easy.

when i can't sing.

Yes, the jacket is hidious but...

i. love. him.

books.

Distracted.

So, nothing gets done.

in time.

You still don't see it, I know.

But it's there.

inner you.

A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly.
You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth
and a double chin and stick-out teeth,
but if you have good thoughts they will shine out of your face
like sunbeams and you will always look lovely.

— Roald Dahl 

pretty face.

the perfect song for a rainy day.

rise and fall.

It's inevitable.
You couldn't stop it if you tried.

ROSIE.....
The best friend!!!

PARTY FOUL!!! What a stinker!!

The husband does not do cowboy wear..says he!!!

Had to teach Saturday School after the crazy night out!!

The husband must have felt bad because  

I came back to a spotless home!!

Happy Birthday to the pretty Ta sisters!!

They're pretty darn decent cousins!!!

At 21 and 25...they're still babies =)

I've been working long hours and with crazy weekends like this.....

Well, honestly, it makes me feel kinda, sorta, old.  

Since I can't hang, I really should just call truce on these events!!

Hope everyone starts their week out well!!
