seeing Dave

We had a blast at Dave Ramsey’s live event on Saturday.   I think we all left feeling motivated and inspired (again) to continue on our journey of making sure we’re debt free and saving more money than ever before.

The sun was in our faces in this photo, but it’s my favorite of the ones we [...]

improving

I have photos to post that I took yesterday and today, but I’m feeling a little grouchy and impatient this week. Didn’t you want to know that? Messing with photos is the last thing on my list at this particular moment. The thought of uploading, editing, resizing, etc. Ugh.
Things should be [...]

tulips and horses

Day 82
The tulips in Megan’s garden have begun to bloom.

Snip and Gray had a disagreement about something.

The kids were back in school today after last week’s Spring Break. They were all happy to see their friends again. I was happy to come home to a relatively clean house. It’s amazing how having [...]

weekend

Day 81
I saw these pretty little flowers at Mom and Dad’s house this afternoon.  I love the color!

Day 80
Like loads of other Twilight fans, we spent a lot of Saturday watching the DVDs.  We have enjoyed all the extras.  I cannot find words to accurately describe the squealing and carrying on that I have listened [...]

flowers and dancing

Day 79 I spotted this lovely tree at the edge of a playground as I was driving home Friday after work, so I stopped to get a few photos.

Day 78
Dobby stopped to listen for a second while I whistled a song to him. Then he started pacing/walking up and down the branches in his [...]

Redbud, Edward and green

Don’t you love the titles I’ve been coming up with? The creative juices are flowing, I tell you.
Day 77 – Redbud tree

Day 76
I can almost hear her screams of joy (again) as she unrolls the poster to see his face. Actually, I think the screams may still be echoing in my head!

Day 75
How’d [...]

Day 72
What I’m reading…

running out of room

I have daily (journal) photos to post, but I’ve run into a problem.  Evidently, I ‘ve used up way too much room posting photos in their original size and this causes my server to generate emails that say things like WARNING!  DISC WARNING USAGE CRITICAL and DISC USAGE WARNING FULL.
I’m in the process of replacing [...]

medicinal

Since taking a photo to represent each day of this year is my journal of sorts, remember that some of the photos are just like real life. They’re sometimes not visually astounding or even pretty. Some are just what I was thinking about, something that caught my eye or an item that somehow [...]

his hat

Day 69

Tonight at Mom and Dad’s house, I saw Grandad’s straw hat (his cowboy hat) sitting on top of the hoosier cabinet. I remember him wearing it and it brings a smile to my face.

stars and a play date

Day 68
This afternoon when B and I were driving to the orthodontist’s office, we were behind this guy.  I cannot figure out why, out of all the tattoos in the world and all the places to put them, he would choose to have two stars put right there.

This evening, my niece came over for a [...]

spring forward

Day 67
Did you remember to set your clocks ahead one hour before you went to bed last night?  I actually remembered this year.  Go me!
Yesterday at the WW weigh-in, I was down another half pound. I was a little disappointed to have only lost half a pound. Again. I know what I [...]

flowers

Day 66
This morning, I saw this little beauty among the daffodils.

Day 65
I think this is my favorite of all the daffodil photos I’ve taken this year.

snowman

Day 64

This picture hangs in the hallway at work.  Each time I see it I want to decorate it to make the 2 lower (connected) circles look like a snowman – with a scarf, a carrot nose and little black dots for eyes.

Public Enemies opens on July 1, 2009.  See you there!
