Life

I have been so caught up in the world of facebook..I find it hard now to sit down and compose a blog post. I think that a lot of people are going by the wayside of blogging, and instead just posting what is on their mind on FB. It's so easy to do from your cell phone, and as I found out last night I can upload pictures right from my blackberry!

I miss blogging...it was kind of a journal of my life that even I could go back and laugh at. Blogging made me happy, and still does, but I need to get back in the swing of things. I never thought that something else would take the place of blogging, but then again maybe I am just old fashion...

The past year has had it's ups and downs, the good and the bad, but I have come to the conclusion that the negativity has over powered me, and from now on I am going to be positive.

I look forward to what the future has in store for me.... Life.

I'm Baaaaaack!

I feel the need to blog again! So much to say, too little time. I don't know who said that, but it sounded good at the moment.

I'm baaaaaaack!

By Request....

I am posting this New Years blog to those anonymous people who attacked me this year and said things about me that aren't true.


FUCK YOU!

Get over it...get a life and move on!

:)

Oh...and the pic is from Rix...Thanks BFF!

That's Life

Like all good things...they must come to an end. I thank you ALL for the very nice comments you left.

I have been doing some serious thinking this past week, and have come to the conclusion this blog is over...

I am too old for this...

I thank all of my friends who stepped up to the plate to defend me.

I don't know what I did so wrong, but will look back and figure it out.

It hurts, but hey I guess...That's Life

Fall is officially here

Last weekend we went out and picked out our pumpkins, and this morning there was frost on them!

I have a crock pot full of yummy delicious chili slowly cooking for a chili dump at casa de rix tomorrow.

The leaves have changed color, and now are dropping on the ground.

Our Halloween decorations are up, and we look forward to the neighborhood goblins trick or treating.

The Heat is on, and it's nice and toasty inside.

Ahhh...Fall is officially here!

Our Extreme Makeover

As you have probably noticed I haven't been blogging much lately...We have been doing some home improvements around here the last few weeks!

Finally it's all done, well...there is always something else that could be done, but for now the house looks great!

I want to thank AA &L Roofing who did a great job on the roof! They worked hard every day including Saturday's and Sunday's.

Harris Painting who painted the much needed exterior of the house! Of those who have been here know about the previous paint job that was literally falling off the house. They scraped and sanded, used a stain instead of a paint, and it looks better than brand new! We are very pleased!

An added bonus was finally getting my kitchen painted. I have lived with the ugly beige paint for over a year, and yesterday it was redone in a lovely shade of white. I am so happy...now I can put up some flamingo curtains!

I put together a slide show for you to enjoy...Our Extreme Makeover

The Gloves are off!

I got today's newspaper, and on the front page of the Peoria Journal Star was nice picture of Obama. I had watched the debates last night, listened to the news today regarding the aftermath, so I thought I would read what was said in the paper.

I looked at the picture carefully, but couldn't figure out what or who was next to Obama holding on to what appeared to be a sign...then I put on my glasses and realized that it wasn't a sign, but someone from the newspaper had put a sticker over McCain's face!
C'mon, now tell me... is this hilarious or what!

The gloves are off...but the sticker is on! LMAO!
