my life...in pictures

my girl and i are having a very lazy day at home.  we skipped the gym, neither one of us feels all that great.  so we're just hanging out at home.  we're still in our jammies....ok, i'm still in my jammies.  she's in a princess dress.

so while being lazy, i flipped through some pics on my camera.  wow.

there are days i take really random pictures.  

ok, most days i take really random pictures.  ok, probably every day i take really random pictures.

but that's just how i roll, y'all.

a new trail mix.  from Sam's.  my man wanted it, but when i sent him a pic of the can he doubted it was the same thing he'd sampled.  i bought it anyway.  then sent him that pic.  

and yes, it was exactly what he wanted.  if you can find it, try it!  if a nut & seed lover - like me - you'll luuuuuurrrrrvvvve it. 

i finally changed the chalkboard on our deck.  it still said something about summer....yeah, it was time for a change.  but since it was only about 40 degrees outside, i did a short and simple one.  themed for next month so i don't have to do it again.  yes...that's pretty pathetic.

we cleaned out our garage on saturday.  it was a BEAUTIFUL day!!  i love the way our garage looks cleeeeeeean.  now if we could only keep those rotten kids from messing it up.  {snort}

sunday i took Bruiser to a birthday party at a skating rink.  we weren't real happy about it considering it was a gorgeous day outside...and we were inside.  but he ended up having fun...after the party moved from the skating area he loathes to the bounce around area he loves.  we had to go to the party right after church...no time to go home and change clothes.  do you know how fun it is to be at a 7-year old birthday party in a skating rink dressed up in church clothes?!?!?!  oh my.  and i noticed that i kinda matched the carpet. hmm.

kiwi, strawberries, and grapes.  my favorite fruit combo.  and this cold weather has not been my friend.  despite visiting the gym 5 days a week, i've packed on quite an extra layer of warmth this winter.  {ahem}

so i'm back to counting calories.  and trying to cut back on sweets...which i normally don't eat....but my mind seems to think it's still Christmas...and still ok to consume those deliciously tempting empty calories.

last night....reading to my girl.  How I Became a Pirate by Melinda Long.  this is a family favorite!!!  if you've never read it, you gotta get this book.  

of course, it helps if you do all the different pirate voices and throw in a sea chantey or two.

so.  how was that for random?  i hope you enjoy your randomly delicious day.  i know i will.
