The Rundown

... And so the big shin-dig meeting at work is over - and it went beautifully! (The food was AWESOME! On a side note, if you're ever in the neighborhood... Logan Street HotDogs from Gaffney has REALLY AH-MAZING BBQ. Their TEA is pretty awesome.)

Hopefully, things wont be so crazy now and I'll have other things to think about once I get home. Last week was exhausting! (I'm pretty sure that by the end of the week, coffee and Jesus were the only things keeping me alive.) I slept in yesterday and didn't do JACK until 11am. Then I thought, well... I better wake the hubs up and maybe we should get cracking.
Who am I kidding? We had a wonderful day being lazy!!!

Unfortunately, my house looks like... well, my house is rather unacceptable right now. It's going to take a week to clean it. Normally, I deep clean on the weekends... but for the past month we've been busy every weekend. I spot clean during the week, but honestly, I've been too tired to do anything other than talk to the hubs and go to bed.

I ended up getting some patio and porch furniture for FREE. Oh yeah! So I've been working around that...

In other exciting news...

The other day, as I was just working along... Hubby dear called me at work. He asked if I had seen his motorcycle. He has parked his motorcycle in the same spot every day for the past 2 years. Sometimes it sits there for an entire weekend.
Someone had walked up into our yard and stole our motorcycle - while one or both of us were home and asleep. (The kicker is, I was late for work that morning and my windows were fogged up -- the last thing I was thinking about was checking for the motorcycle.) Either way, they worked fast, because they had like a 45 minute window in which to steal it.
We've called the cops, and the insurance company.
No word on the bike, though.
God is gracious and provides though! We had been needing to change the oil in the bike for a little over a month, and we just hadn't had time to take care of it -- so at least we didn't lose money on that! We also have been able to borrow Papa's truck which is super helpful now that we're down to one vehicle.

I'll leave you with a picture. (I'd love to show you a picture of my fancified re-vamped bedroom, but let's face it... someone just stole one of our vehicles... I don't really feel safe enough put up pictures of my house right now. :( ... )
Apparently, the kitties like the new chairs as much as I do...

The Tale of the Bad, Bad Blogger.

Okay, so it's been a while...

But I've had a lot going on! People have gotten pregnant. People have had babies. People have gotten engaged. People are getting married. There are dresses to be ordered. Presents to be bought. And whole lot of cattle farmers are vaccinating their cows and a whole lot of medicines have had to be shipped.

Okay, so we're going to do a quick recap in pictures: (Because I'm oober tired tonight. Seriously falling asleep at the computer here. It's only 6pm.)

 
 
Was doing my regular work thing one day and scored free Clemson tickets. (And they were pretty nice seats too!) Boo-yah! Yes, it was awesome! Yes, I had fun! Yes, it has crossed my mind that being a Clemson fan wouldn't be so bad.
 
 
I have learned to make the perfect hot chocolate. The picture doesn't do justice.
 
 
Last weekend the sister and the bestie came for a visit. Oh how I miss them!
 
Right after this we had to run quickly to avoid being hit by a little old lady in a focus. She stopped to pic someone up. While she was stopped, we walked around the back of her car and she sprayed us with her windshield washer-stuff.
 
 
 
I  came home last night to Mary bellering her brains out. She decided that she really, really, really wanted the green grass on the outside of their makeshift pen. (We're fixing currently fixing the fence so that no coyotes or dogs come and try to get my babies.) While the whole squeezing her head into that predicament worked magically, the way her horns are, it kinda makes it a mess to squeeze back out. We both sat there freaking out. Dear husband saved the day though... he told us how to fix the problem judging by one picture and a frantic text message!
 
 
On that note, I do believe I'm going to hunt some grub, make some hot chocolate, and call it a night.
Hopefully it wont be so long between posts next time.
