We have known each other for 20 (?) years, and it surprised most people when we 'openly' started dating . Our first offical date took several months of him asking and me saying I'll think about it, and even then people can't believe that I called his ex prior to accepting..she and I were working friends and I felt like it was the right thing to do! We have been together 7+ years...little did I know that he would be the 'Ying' to my 'Yang', ~almost sounds dirty~...LOL!!   

As the next chapters of my world happen I hope you will follow and enjoy...!!

Super Cute Socks!!

     My daughter Bobbie had a side bar advertisement on her blog from Courtney at '3xacharmrunner' about a Secret Santa Sock Swap....well I couldn't pass this up!! So I registered. Then while going to Sevierville for her last(?) race of the season Bobbie starts talking about it...I'm thinking..Hmmm should I tell her I entered?? I swear I was going to but of course we get to talking about everything and I didn't...Courtney sends me a name and address..I get all kinds of stuff together and send 'Papaw' to mail it.

A few days later a package arrives and look what was in it..! 



I know your all jealous of my socks...thick and cozy on my feet...

Green heels and toes...

Thanks to Courtney for all the time you put into the swap and can't wait till next year.

My findings...

such a sad,sad day my tried and trusted Conair curling iron finally died....I hate breaking in a new one...apparently they don't make this one anymore...I've looked...duck tape held the switch where it needed to be since my thumb would 'switch it off' accidentally.
