New 'Do

Hello strangers! Today was so beautiful and exciting I had to share.

First off, the weather today was the kind of fall day I love; the ones that make me remember why fall is my favorite season. It was cool, the sun was shining and warm, and the leaves are every color red, gold, orange and brown imaginable.

To top off that, I went and got my hair cut today! Two feet of hair, four years of growth, gone in a heartbeart! Well, a few minutes longer than that I suppose...but look at what she was working with!

And then...SNIP! SNIP! SNIP!

TADA!!!!

In case you couldn't tell by my expression, I LOVE IT! I haven't had my hair this short since a terrible incident in 2nd grade which I never wish to think about again...and I definitely didn't love it then.

Lost (updates)

So I've just realized that the updates I was sending through my phone aren't getting posted. Grrr....

Anyway, I've been on the beach a couple of weeks and let me tell you...VACATIONS ARE GREAT! The day after I left Georgia, the rain started, and hasn't stopped yet. North Georgia is flooded to the max. However, life on the beach is sunny, awesome, and pretty much perfect. :)

And since my MIL has the bebes, I'm giving in to my hardcore Lost addiction. I just started season 3 and I'm pretty excited after the first episode. And I know it's just going to get better.

Til next time!

Addictions and Autumn

Not too long ago I realized how much time the computer was taking out of my life. When I realized that I was pretty to close to having an all-out addiction, I freaked a little, and kind of abandoned everything I felt was taking up my time, in a bad way.

Needless to say, running three blogs was a (fantastic and fun) drain on my time, and I noticed I was started to change things in my life to make more time for blogging. If I could do that, I should put that time towards other things like, oh I don't know...my kids, my husband, my tentative writing career?

Either way, I've found a good balance between real life and computer life, and while I'm not abandoning my beloved blogs, needless to say, I'll be posting...infrequently :)

That said, all is good in life right now. It's not great, but it's not terrible either. We're making ends meet most of the time, and the kids are growing in amazing leaps and bounds. I can almost taste the end of summer in the air, and I have to admit that I can't wait to see the mountain in autumn.

Till next time!

In Praise of Emma Watson

So I've loved Emma Watson for a long time, not just for her delightful ability to bring Hermione to life so beautifully on screen, but because she's just so darn precious! Only, now that she's 19, she's grown out of precious and straight into beautiful.

And while there are so many wonderful things I'd love to say about her, I've just now found out that my beloved Fug Girls have already done it for me. So, without further ado, here's their work, diligently cut and pasted by yours truly.

Enjoy!
