Bragging!


I WANT this.  My man and I say this to each other all the time


A lovely rainbow from last night.

  • I'm finally home and it's amazing.  
  • Yesterday my Boo told her mommy "I want my wibby back"  Guess who unpacked at the speed of sound and booked it over to see her before she went to bed.  She was just darling and has easily grown 2 inches since I saw her 3 weeks ago.
  • My man came to see me in Madison over the weekend and we had such a good time.  He got to meet my coworker Mike and even played a little nookie hooky on Monday to spend another night with me.  I was pretty sure he was missing me hard core.
  • Fast forward to last night.  I got in my car and saw some parts boxes.  I assumed he dropped them off to fix it this week.  Nope! Turns out that he missed me so bad that first weekend he came to my house.  He fixed my botched attempt at putting pulls on my kitchen drawers, he replaced my broken toilet seat AND he replaced the air filter and spark plugs in my Jeep.  The real kicker is he rotated my tires, but that involved driving back to his house (140 miles round trip and getting gas).  When I called him that evening he was actually on my couch watching the race, instead of at home like I had thought.  
  • His attention to details and completing my imaginary honey-do list are fantastic.  Big time keeper.
  • He admitted last night that he missed me pretty badly.  We've agreed that 2 weeks is our max to be apart and he doesn't even want to deal with that.  New job starts Oct 14 and it cannot come fast enough.  I'll be working NW WI and that's just perfect for us.
  • Up next is vacation!  I'll be up north for 7 days then we are driving to Green Bay to fish for the weekend with my man's family.  Nearly 10 days of fun, food, fishing and family and a complete lack of technology.  Ultimate relaxation begins in 2.5 days!

Kickin' it SD style (again)




  • I have my boyfriend and sister on red alert for those oreos!
  • I've been to Omaha and now Sioux Falls in 7 days.  I have 1 more day of work and I"m exhausted.  The good news is I should be going home Wednesday, unless my boss finds somewhere else to send me
  • Tonight is the first night in 9 days that I've had to myself.  I ordered Pizza Hut, drank a huge gatorade and am looking at Pinterest.  
  • I'm also watching Marriage Bootcamp Celebrity edition. This show is so awful and addictive.  I soooo needed this me time!
  • My man is off with his dad and brother this weekend getting the boat set up for salmon season. It's basically his Christmas morning all weekend.  He's so excited!  It makes me happy he's so passionate about things.
  • 2 more weeks to vacation and I cannot wait.  Family, no electronics, lake, sunshine and sleep!

Monkey see, Monkey Fail




  • I've made monkey bread dozens of times with fabulous results.  This morning, not so much!
  • Rolls actually fell off and were burning, the inside was raw :(
  • Note, do NOT use Texas sized rolls, they do not work.  Lesson learned
  • This was still edible and my man and I ate the cooked edges.
  • PMS has totally kicked my ass this weekend and I've been in a horrible mood.  Today seems to be better and I'm excited to spend it with my man and have a family fish fry tonight.  The boys caught 80+ pan fish yesterday.
  • Time to go get cleaned up and stop watching Bar Rescue.  This show just sucks me in!
