One last picture. It’s from the engagement picture session three years ago (??). I’m the hottie in white, my then-fiance is in the vest and the little boy is my now step son, the boy. They’re what I love about living here. (That and I’m wearing a blouse and the picture was taken in freaking…

Hey look! It’s me, forty or so pounds ago. I’m the one in white. Yes, it’s finally a freaking wedding picture (okay, it’s a proof…don’t tell our photographer). From left to right are my awesome bridesmaids and closest friends Julie, Tracy and Brandy. Every time I think of my wedding day and all they did…

Today (technically yesterday since it’s now 12:05 AM on Sunday morning) was a big day. Friday night Gene and I had dinner with our friends Ross and Liz. A good time was had by all. The restaurant was in the city (we live in a suburb of said city) and as we hit the highway…

I think it originated when we were joking about talking in code. Second choice was always ‘the washcloth is blue.’ I will probably send her the link to my blog and hopefully she will…

10. LaineyD’sChateauD’Amour (I don’t think Blogspot or the web in general allow punctuation in web addresses) 9. She’sSoSweet (Well, that’s a total lie) 8. StoneColdBitch (Well, that’s the truth, but vulgar) 7. BeatsCleaning (It so totally does) 6. EveryGirlHasADream (And mine is a 30 hour day and a 16 hour workweek) 5. WTF? (Yeah, like…
