Just Rambling... Because I Can

Well, it's been somewhat of a productive morning. So far, I have cooked breakfast, cleaned up the kitchen, patched a hole in the bathroom wall, taped off all the trim in prep to paint the bathroom later today, checked out the want ads and have now put my 5th load of clothes in the washer.

Now, it's almost 8:00 so I had better get myself into the tub as I have to go to the home improvement store, electronics store, produce place and I have a lunch meeting. I'm even gonna sneak a few minutes for me and hit the massage bed at the tan salon. How did I ever find time to do things and work??? If it wasn't for that pesky thing called money that is needed to pay my bills, I think I could definitely get used to this being at home thing. : )

Have a great day.

KGrams who is hoping to get all her errands run so that she can get the bathroom painted this afternoon.

I've got.. nothing, naddo, zilch, zippo

It's another gloomy Monday and I feel the same way. I have for weeks now, no energy, no desire to do anything. I'm just totally wiped out.


So, to keep ya from having to look at the same old post, I'll be nice and put some random pics out here of my little man. He is now 11 weeks old and up to 2.7 lbs.


7 weeks old


8 Weeks Old


Asleep in Daddy's arm. Can you say SPOILED?

During Hurricane Gustav - At least someone wasn't worried.


He did actually wake long enough to change positions. lol

Ok, that's all I've got for now. Have a great day!!!

It's one of those days....

I got up this morning and stated my normal routine of getting ready for work, laundry, cooking breakfast etc. Seemed like any other day. Then, I left my house.

I had to take a back way to work which is several miles out of the way, but it was quicker as they have set up a distribution site for food stamps the way I normally go and the traffic can be tied up for hours. No biggie, I got over that one.

On the way, I stopped to fill up my gas tank and the machine comes up with... would you like to purchase a car wash? Took one look at my car and thought yes, I definitely need one. When I finished pumping, pulled over to the car wash to see... Sorry, temporarily closed. Grrrrrrrrrrrr Why did the gas pump ask me if I want one and then proceed to take my $8 if the car wash isn't working???

I get to work and realize I forgot my lunch at home. It was a really yummy lunch - leftovers from last night. Grrrrr again.

As I'm early for work, I get out the paper that I picked up at the gas station to see what's happening this morning. It's Monday's paper and today is Thursday. Why did they have the old papers in the rack??? Shouldn't they be moved elsewhere? Another Grrrrrrrrr

Decided I might as well get started working. What's this... I have no internet and have to spend 15 minutes trying to get it back up.

All this before 8:00 am!!!

KGrams who is thinking of going home, getting back in her bed and pulling up the covers to shut out the world today.

Getting it all back together

I survived my first hurricane! I was amazed at how powerful it was (we aren't exactly on the gulf) and how VERY stressful it is. Unfortunately, we got hit with the eastern wall of the eye. Major damage to the area!!!

We were fortunate that we did not have damage to our house, just downed trees and a huge amount of debris to clean up. (I'll post pics that I took later) We were also lucky to get our power restored late on Thursday. They are saying that some won't get power for another 4 to 5 weeks!

That's all for now as I'm too exhausted and stressed to type today.

KGrams who really hates the name Gustav and isn't so excited hearing the name Ike right now either.
