Update-ish

1. I am now in Asheville living between my parents house and my grandmothers house. My grandmother is in a nursing home so her house is empty and is a great place for Madelyn and I to have as our own. However, I'm a chicken and there's no internet there yet so we've been sleeping at my parents. Plus they are calling for snow flurries tonight. Blech!

2. Madelyn turned one on Friday and I'm pretty sure she's diving head first into her terrible twos. We have major meltdowns, temper tantrums, and more attitude than I think a one year old is allowed to have. Of course, she's still the cutest, sweetest baby in the whole wide world.

3. Chris left Sunday to drive to CA. It will be 11 days until I see him for the ball in Charleston, SC. I am so bummed that he's not here with us and that we will be apart for a while (after the ball).

4. I am LOVING having cold weather so that I can sleep under my down comforter. Well, if I would ever go to the house where my comforter is to sleep under it. The two nights with Chris were wonderfully snuggly though!

5. I don't have internet yet and I'm going crazy!

6. Today I had my garbage in my lap to drop in the dumpster as I came to mom and dads and forgot to throw it away! I had stinky nasty poopy diaper garbage and I FORGOT it was there. I had to turn around and go back to throw it away.

7. I miss Chris like nobody's business and I wish he were here or we were there, or whatever has to happen for us to be together.

I miss Chris FOR you. I hate that feeling. When me and Austin were apart for the first three months of TBS I was a wreck EVERY day...well, take into consideration I was either 9 months preggo or had post partum...but still..I know I would have been a wreck anyway.

Man, I know exactly how you feel. I hate it when Dave is gone! Only 11 days, you can do it! Just keep telling yourself that! You can do anything for 11 days!
Dude, I totally wish that I had a place to stay so I didn't have to stay at my parents! I am gonna go crazy! It is gonna be so nice for you and Madelyn to have your own space! To keep your sanity!

SNOW!!! No thanks! I don't miss that at all!!! Make sure that you keep that weather up there with you. I don't want you sharing that with us at all.

I'm so bummed that you have to be apart from Chris. It makes it so hard, especially since your really a single parent right now.

Hope you get your internet soon, so you don't go too crazy!

Where to start?

This is a welcome home sign that somebody put up on base. I'm sure the Marine recognizes himself in the picture as do all the Marines that know him. There is just so much wrong that I don't know where to start. Is this sign from a jealous girlfriend and wifey's on the bed of a pick-up truck on her way to Mexico to be sold into slavery? Is this sign from his brother who took "care" of wifey while he was deployed? Is this just a sign from the wifey who likes to advertise that she is lazy and fat and probably has cracker crumbs and bugs in the bed because this sign has been up for several weeks. I won't even get started on "the ice", like there's only one ice? I bet it melted really quick. Maybe it's on the ice in Alaska? Or on the ice on the boat that she bought with deployment money and is sailing around on with the brother? OK, it's making my brain hurt because it doesn't rhyme or flow. It's just a bunch of statements on ...

I also like to visit Four Ribbons   and get my craft on. This is my Marine, he fights for freedom. That is HOT.   This is Madelyn.  She is three and keeps me on my toes and sometimes renders me speechless.  So now that you know a little more about me, please link up so we all can get to know you!

All Dressed Up!

It's All Dressed Up Wednesday with No Model Lady It's just a fun day for us to get dressed up and share it with the internets.  Today I did a little casual outfit that I've been thinking about for a while.  It's not super creative, but I LOVE this shirt and scarf combo.  Feeling pensive in the backyard. Feeling like a picture with heels sinking in the grass! This outfit was really all about the shoes.  Because it's always all about the shoes. This is how silly I felt posing in my backyard with a mirror propped against our glider bench. Shirt and scarf combo: Kohls Jeans: Levis skinny Shoes: Macy's clearance Earrings: Charlotte Russe Bracelet: a gift from my lovely Denise Did you play?  Wanna Play?  Head over to No Model Lady and link up!
