Ring ring....goes the phone at 11:40pm last night...

Ring ring....hear stopping ring at 11:40pm last night....bolt from my room and Danny is already putting on his clothes. It seems that Colby SOMEHOW had a flat in McKinney. I had taken my knock out pills and decided to stay home instead of getting out for a retrieve our son adventure. I get up this morning to find a tire in the back of his truck, with a gash right down the center. The tire above is a NEW one...least it was minor. Still scary to have the phone ring and the kids both be out.

Car shopped today, keeping the Lexus for now.

Off to have fajitas with Danny and see the Egg Farm in Prosper, that supposedly exploded today. Might find one giant omelet!

Yes...we're still here!

Okay, so I've missed a few days posting.... let 's see, this week Colby has spent the night with friends, Chelsey has been to Six Flags, woke up this morning by Chelsey to say Colby was GONE...let's jsut say I'll bet that doesn't happen again. Yes, he was safe at Tyler's byt he fully understands that permission is a requirement.

One of the ladies that works at Centex had twin boys today....maybe it's in the water over there, but they are early, she was in her 26th week. Two tiny little boys, one weighs 1 pound 12 ounces and the other 2 ounces. I had crocodile tears streaming down my face as I read the text mid day, from my friend Kyle, who also is with Centex and has twins (see what I mean about the water). They were born at just after 11am and are in NICU at Presbyterian Plano. Although not terribly close to Laura at all, my heart aches for she and her hubby. Wouldn't ever wish that worry on anyone. So....I'll say a little prayer tonight for two tiny little boys that came into this world much earlier than planned.

Danny and Colby cleaned out the garage today....dirt dabbers and spiders had made a nice home. Was nice to see it really clean when I got home.

Danny has a burn permit (we live in the country, but Collin County figures out a way to permit everything!) to very soon, our 4 brush piles should be gone! Couple more people have driven down the driveway to check out the house. Staying positive, hate to lower the price yet...

Hope all is well with our followers out there. It's crazy busy month end for me. 3 months from yesterday Danny and I will celebrate our 20 year anniversary. 1 month from tomorrow I'll be 45. Ugh...where does the time go! OH, and my beautiful sister will be FORTY in November....that, my friends and family, makes me smile. :-)

Thanks goodness tomorrow is.......Thursday. Friday would be better, but hey, at least it's not Monday.

XOXO,
Pam

Got me an....

Got me an iPad! Probably have to wait until Chelsey gets home to figure out how to use it, LOL. Been a while since I've had a new toy, last one was my Kindle for Christmas. Didn't go to Choctaw, so I deserved something!

A date with one of my two beautiful daughters...

Just waiting for 8:30 to roll around, so I can wake Princess Chelsey up. We have a date this morning for a manicure/pedicure. Of course she has to have her sleep first! After our feet and nails are all pretty (or as pretty as mine can be with no toe nails) we're going to Souper Salad. Can't wait to have a little time with her all to my self. Let's see if we can do it without a cross word... :-)

Dinner with Danny, Chelsey and Dallas last night and for the second night in a row Skipbo at our house. Dallas did a little better this time. Colby was of course out and about with Tyler and his buddy that has moved back to Celina, Chad. Appears I'm now back to "My Three Sons" Mom again, four is you count Dallas. Tis okay, because I love those guys! Just a little tougher to keep up with, the higher the number goes.

Dallas had his Senior pictures taken this week. Not sure what our house will be like when he's off at college. The Princess will likely be the wicked witch...

Wanted to run to Choctaw last night, but couldn't get off early, and then it was pouring rain at 5pm, so I hung out at the office for another hour, waiting for the downpour to stop. Danny says "If it's going to rain ANYWHERE, it rains in Lewisville" and I'm beginning to think that's true.

Saw Colton, Ashley and Tazz at Crow's Nest (our fav hole in the wall restaurant in Anna). Colton was full on mow hawk! He's so dang cute....love that he gives Ashley fits sometimes. Makes me smile. Danny tried to get him to come home with us, and he said NO, I'm going home to play basketball. His soon to be football coach stopped by to see him several days ago and informed him that he's going to be quarterback. Apparently he was on cloud nine! Just doesn't seem possible that he's 7 now. Dylan was with Cindy and Randy last night, having fun with his cousins I'm sure. Sure do love those little guys...and you too Ashley!

5 minutes till I wake the Princess...better get myself ready for that. Hope everyone has a great day.

Love, Pam

From MAD to SAD today...

I do not understand how one person can spend so much time trying to hurt someone else. Today I read something that made my blood absolutely boil, I hit "call" on my phone and left a not so nice message. A message that was ignored, as I didn't get a call back. I calmed down a bit and then was very sad, that someone who has such an influence in someone I love dearly's life right now could be so mean, cruel and just flat idiotic. A few of you will wonder what I'm talking about. A few will KNOW what I'm talking about. Wish I could fix it, but I can't. Tough to just sit back and let it happen.

Okay, I feel better now.....crazy busy day at the office. Came home and had a Skipbo (card game to those wondering) duel with Colby, Chelsey and Dallas....girls ruled! What fun we had. Danny hit the place with the weed eater today, looks pretty darn good. Had someone look at it yesterday, they loved the land and the lake, but the house was "more than they needed." All I can say is "Next?" Who else is interested.

Tomorrow is Friday and the end of another hard week. Not sure what the weekend will entail, but I'm sure Starbucks is in order for Danny and I at least once and Chelsey and I have a date for a mani/pedi. Colby may even go! Chelsey said "oh...those poor nail ladies" when Colby mentioned going, LOL.

Love to all,
Pam

P.S. M.I.A. Mia came back yesterday by the way....she was hungry, but all in one piece. :-)

Follow up

Two updates:

1) I really did choose the appropriate name for Mia the black cat, because she is now officially MIA since this morning. Please let her return to the garage safe and sound!

2) The person(s) that were to look at our house were looking for 30 to 100 acres of farmland (we fit into that catagory, although it sounds like a wanna be farmer, since that's a pretty broad range of land wanted) and a farmhouse. Well....I do not think my house is a "farm house." So....at least it was ALL clean yesterday and Danny and I spent the afternoon riding around, so we'd not be home for them to look at it. Maybe the next person will be THE ONE!

Monday is almost history...whew what a busy one! Need to go read Carla's Blog about the "new addition." Surely puppy and kitty did not mate, LOL.

XOXO,
Pam

A frenzy...

Received a call at 9am (or shall I say a message) from our realtor that someone is coming out to look at the house today. So.....can you say FENTER FRENZY FARM for two hours? Geez, all is straight now, ready for someone to love it as much as I do. Off to have lunch, with my fingers crossed....

Happy Sunday to all.
