Warming My Cockles

I've seen two things in computer-land that have brought tears to my eyes today....

p.s. I won the fight with the evil machine! We'll see if my pants get done! :)

Happy Mother's Day!

Here is my Mother's Day Card! Isn't that great!? There's my son, long hair, hat, skateboard and all. The inside reads: To the best mom in the world! Im so glad you are my mom you are always there for me you always care for me there is no other mom out there like you!

So sweet, better than any card he could have bought me. I think we need to work on the concept of run-on sentences, though, huh?

I took this picture with my new birthday present! It is the cutest camera!! Would ya look at that table!? I've got lenses, filters, tripods, a case, a strap...I am SET! I just need to play around now and figure it all out. Hubby's so good to me. He doesn't mind me using his camera, which is the bomb btw, but I had mentioned I was going to use my birthday money to buy my own, a little more portable to permanently attach to my hand so I can have it at all times, and low and behold, can the man take a hint!? Wow. He is too good to me......Oh, and you see those beautiful flowers!? (OK, well, the wrapper is still on them because it says to leave the wrapper on for 8 to 12 hours so the stems have some support, and you know what a rule-follower I am...) They're from my beautiful sister and awesome nephews!! I assumed they were from hubby, so it was a pleasant surprise!
We are off to dinner with some friends to Red Lobster! Yum-Yum-Yummy!! Don't worry, more pics to come!

Feelin' The Love

Here's the status of our tree: Very Sad.....I'm crying over here.

And you know it's windy when it blows the basketball goal over, let's sing it again, shall we??

Oklahoma, Where the wind comes sweeping down the plain....

Hubby has had all my birthday presents out (we celebrate birthday week around our house), and he gets a little impatient, so he gave me the biggest one to open.

Which held this ergonomic seam ripper! Hahaha.....

Get it!? The huge box for one little seam ripper!? Oh, you got it? OK, just checking. My daughter doesn't always get things, but that's for another post.

I needed it to replace my other one that is broken.

I also received a package in the mail from my mom and step-dad. Weren't they kind to remind me that I'll be "Over the Hill" Saturday!?

So, I thought, well I'll put all the gifts with the ones that are already out here. So I begin taking them out of the box, and the pile keeps growing, and they keep multiplying in the box....she sent *FORTY* presents!! Hahahahaha......Wow, thanks, Mom! There was.....

......even.....a *real* pinata!! No strings attached. You can actually hit it. Well, yeah, if you had a tiny bat. Isn't that great! That Momma, she's a clever one!

But wait....there's more!!

Act now and you'll receive a red rectangular vase! (Isn't that lovely? Well, minus the fingerprints)


Some beautiful Celtic music by Loreena McKennitt...

And hiking sticks!!

With the Texas State Seal on them! How awesome is that!? OK, now if it'll just get warm enough for us to go hike somewhere.

There are Forty!!

Aren't these beautiful?!!
They came early for Valentine's Day....
There are *40* of them!!!
Wow.
