Project 365 Day 22

I let Riley run wild in the backyard today! So there were some great pictures opp's
To bad the ground was wet or it would have been more fun.
He dug a giant hole in the ground and spread rocks all over, soooo we will be fixing that tomorrow :) But boys will be boys,



My sweet boy :) I wouldnt trade him for the world!

Project 365 Day 19

Cheat day!! woohoo, I have been looking forward to cheat day every moment of everday since I started this barely eating anything crap. We went to chili's with the family, It was fantastic. I didnt do tooo bad, I only had one dr pepper no refills, and I took all the fried bread off of my chicken tenders before I dunked them in honey mustard :) I am sure that saved me several calories.
Here is a pic of Riley in the truck, I know I should have taken one of the whole family at chili's Dang.. next cheat day :) I will

can you believe this woman is nearly 5 months pregnant!!! She is very blessed, you cant even tell!! :) We think its a boy this time!


Dad & Jenny :)


Harlee & Lit'l Grace :)

Project 365 Day 15

:) I know I am soo behind on these., and I missed a few days, but Iv been under the weather and proud that I am posting as much as I can.

This was friday before the superbowl, we got to wear jersey's @ work, and of course we were soo excited to not have to wear our polo shirts for a day!! :) We had allot of fun at work that day, its crazy how one little bend in the rules can make your job so much more fun! One day I am going to take pictures with my whole face in them!

Project 365 day 17... I think

Its been nearly 72 hours sober, and yes I mean sober.. what a drug soda is. Its my entire personailty... that's where I got my bubbly nature.. the bubbles in the soda.... how sad. :( I'm sad. This is a pic of my dinner and snacks.. notice the bottle of exedrin migraine in the picture. How boring life is with decent food. Like.. fries, pizza,little debbie snack cakes, mexican food!! And the all mighty mt dew.. people say, nothing tastes as good as thin feels. :p. Its cause after years of eating stuff that tastes like cardboard u forget what good is.. ok enough complaining, ill try 2 be more positive...woohoo carrots & whole grain bread score!!!

Project 365 day 14

On the way 2 work..... traffic,,,, soooo slow, I hate when they squish u into one lane for nothing. So I had time 2 take a pic of the pretty tree. Can't wait till they start blooming, I love spring.

Project. 365 day 16.

I know these will be out of order ill have 2 correct them, what iv noticed is that unless I take the pics via phone, I can't seem 2 blog everyday because I don't download my camera, today my father in law came over today, its been awhile since I saw him, he is a huge help and always a friendly face. :) he fixed out sprinklers and mowed our yard. Made me realize I have been outside in a long time!! And the weather is perfect and my little hammock is calling my name, so maybe on my day off ill take some time 2 enjoy my backyard :)

Project 365 day 13!

Today was a much better day, I went 2 the dr yesterday and got lots of meds!! I think they might help me, today after just one day of them I feel better. :) thank you nurse practitioner jena! You made me feel like me once again :) so this is all the crap I took today, I'm officially a druggy. :) I always knew someday I would achieve my goals

Project 365 day. 12

This is what my kitchen counter looks like when I can barely get out of bed, sooo on my next day off I will tackle the counter, who knows what's learking down under all that crap, but after I took this pic, instead of taking action... I went 2 lay down in my snuggly bed :) maybe tomorrow will be better

Project 365 day 11

I'm so behind!! This idea is courtesy of my li'l sis. All I did on my day off was lay around being bummed out...and then I went 2 fry's yep, that's all folk and I watched the bachelor, I can't find one single flaw in that guy, he is perfect. So here is my foot. :) although it is a cute foot, its all I wanted 2 show today, I haent been feeling very good, but,, the all mighty foot never fails. :)

Project 365 Day 10

What a beautiful day it was today! Not to hot not 2 chilly but the warmth of the sun hits u ever so sweetly after a cool breeze passes by. In the summer I sometimes forget what that feeling is like. Seems like I'm always scrambling 2 get back inside in july... but today I didn't want 2 be stuck @ work.. I was even tempted 2 roll my computer desk outside 2 enjoy it. On days like today I sometimes wish I was a stop/slow sign girl. You know, the people who make $17 an hour 2 stand near construction sites wearing a little orange smock & hard hat with the slow sign... awe, the amount of day dreaming you could do in an 8 hour shift. :) or even one of those tax people.. dressed as uncle sam dancing around on the street corner, trying 2 bring in business.... they won't get mine this year since I am going 2 owe a butt-load of money... hmmm.. maybe I should get a second job 2 pay for that! Uncle sam outfit standing on a corner, here I come!

Project 365 day 9

I'm trying so hard 2 stick 2 my allowed calories everyday. Some days r better then others. Today was a weakness day! Hello sonic, I just driveby the place and my mouth starts watering for one of those banana split blasts with the ripe red cherry on top! So... I used all my allotted lunch calories for one. :) so technically it was a wash. :) welllll. @ least that's what I tell myself.

Project 365 day 8

I know I'm a day late posting this..

A dinasaur.. riley rarely plays with this thing, I think we got it in the dollar section @ target. I find him in some of the weirdest spots around the house... a few weeks ago he was hiding in with the tupperware, one morning I found him in the shower, under the couch, on top of the computer, under the covers...ect. today I woke up 2 the little monster staring @ me. It makes me think of that cute little dinasaur in toy story... I think when riley is older I might use him for a mom/son joke.... the picture sucks ill have 2 take another one

Project 365 Day 7

Yay! I made it threw my first week of the Project, I am very surprised and pleased :) Woohoo! But if it wasnt for the mobile blogging thing, I wouldnt have been able to do it. I dont have time to upload my camera everyday! :) But the picture phone (although low quailty) works well

Today.. We went to dinner when Mike got home from work :) Yay serrano's! They have the best Bean in the world! and I was craving it like a mad-woman! So I took my ner camera along and took allot of pics.. My poor family.. Here goes

Riding in the car :)
Checking to see if my camera takes good sky pictures in motion.. not bad :)

Me taking a picture of me taking pictures.. I know I am soo lame!

Leaving my neighborhood!.. Goodbye Pecan Creek South.. Hello.. Ironwood

I wonder if my husband was getting irritaed at me.

What a lovely tree :) Oh Look, its RAINING! By-Gally I better get a picture of that too


& the final picture.. Riley laughing while he has food in his mouth! What a great mom I am :) I would have taken more.. But I felt someone getting annoyed :) Oh well.. Its what I do........

Project 365 day 6

Oh, I can't believe its here again, another semester @ school!! It feels like I have been in school forever! This semester I had 2 transfer to scottsdale community because mcc doesnt offer allot of classes I need. I am taking forensic pathology. And. Physical evidence. Both very tough demanding classes, I took my first quiz today and. Only missed. 1 question!!! Woohoo. My 1 class I haven't even started yet, my teacher hasn't told me where 2 go2 get my school stuff!!! So hopefully I don't complety fail the first week there.. so that's pretty much what I did all day.... school, ... what a waste of a whole day off :p. Maybe we'll go 2 the park tomorrow. :) maybe

Project 365 Day 5

WOOOHOOOO I am soooooo excited!! I got my new camera out today and started playing with it! :) It is Awesome, Fantastic Wonderful and Amazing! It has a burst mode witch takes up to 100 photos one after another! so I can catch all the smiles and cute moments :)

It also comes with a remote! which is cool so I can take my own family pics.. (ha ha yeah like that will happen) Buts at least its an option now!

Its got a really cool Tilt screen tto, so you can view the pic without moving the camera.

I have been saving for a long time for it!! and my old camera still works.. :P a little but I have to bend the cord just right to have it charge, and it has weird blog splotches on the screen covering the pic viewer :( So I will keep it in my purse for all those imprompto moments in life.

& I love that it was a battery that charges thew plug in! and Its a small charger so I can take it anywhere out of town and everything! & the screen tells you how many shots you have left on that battery! Which is great, because on my old camera, I was right in the middle of my missouri vacation on 4th of july and it just died as we had all the family at the party sitting together smiling for the camera! How embarrassing :( Its ok, it wont happen anymore! WooHoo!

Project 365 day 4

I am behind already!! But not by far, I did take the pics on the right day though :) So I think that counts

Here is the BatMobile! Yes, the real one! Its not a very good pic though, It was outside a Motel 8 in Apache Junction.. What you dont see in the pic is the 5 cops behind me taking pictures to! it was like little boys in a candy store

Hmm. I wonder how much this thing is worth.. and how anyone would fit into it..

Yes this is my entertainment at 230 in the morning :)

Project 365 Day 3

Hmmm. Can someone tell me what's wrong with this picture? Yes it was taken today. :) jan 19th 2009.. wait.. r those... those. Christmas lights? What the heck its freak'n middle of jan. I feel like that girl gretchen wilson talks about in her white trash song. "Leave my christmas lights up all year long" hopefully they will be down by this weekend, that's my goal this week, that and put my luggage away from the missouri trip that's still sitting just where I dropped it when I got home 2 weeks ago. :) what high ambitions I have.

Project 365 day 2

I watch oprah, nearly religiously. I have never done her book selections because well #1 I don't read actual books, and #2 I thought allot of the topics wouldn't interest me. Well I did finally expand my horizons and read twilight series and of course like every other teenage girl and wife/mother in the world I am in love with them. So I figured hmmm. Maybe reading isn't so bad after all. It gets people 2 leave me alone @ work. And it puts me into a dream world that I haven't been to since I was a kid, I forgot how good it feels 2 get lost in something. I bought the book. Eat, Pray,Love a year ago @ costco because I saw the author on oprah. I was taken in by her story about feeling hopeless and devistated crying on her bathroom floor. It hit me because when I feel like the world is closing in on me I hide and cry in my bathroom, or closet, when I used 2 work @ banner desert I would hide from the world in the linen closet hoping and pray'ing that no one would find me, I hated my job so much. And when my mom was dying of cancer I used 2 cry on my bathroom floor with the door closed. Or when I worked @ target and mike and I used 2 fight I would head 4 the back bathroom 2 take a time out. So it was nice 2 hear that someone else has had the same madwoman moments as I have had. So last night @ work I decided 2 jump into the book :) it was either read or listen 2 overly neg comments from a co-worker all night, so I chose the book :) the book starts on page 7 and by page 8 I was hooked! Her way of turning a phase is enlightning and joyful. she is real and u can't help but laugh with her as she discribes her divorce, and heart ache but shedoes it in a fun way. One phrase she says. "God never slams a door in your face without opening a box a girl scout cookies" :) I am only on page 31 and I can't wait 2 read the rest, if I could possibly stop posting about it, and if my cops would stop getting into trouble out there, geeze I feel like there mother/wife/babysitter/secretary on nights like this..... so I am going 2 hide in my book instead of the closet or bathroom tonight, and I encourage everyone 2 read it. :)

Project. 365.. or. 347

I wanted 2 do project 365 this year, its a goal 2 take a picture everyday of the year. Its a everyday life year, since when we post blog stuff its about places we go, things we do or make, u never see the sitting on the couch watching greys in jammies moments, or the work moments, so then if u can @ the end of the day post them or u can do it by week. :) & blog or scrapbook about it. I didn't think this was possible since I'm so busy,,, until I discovered mobile blogging :) and since I take all my blog postings and put them in a book via artscow, it might work. So I am getting a late start but what the heck. Day #1 Here is a pic of me driving 2 work, boy don't I look happy! Its a lie!! All of it, but it pays most of the bills anyways, and I ordered a new camera!!! Yay ebay I saved like 80 bucks :) hopefully this one will take great pictures. The other picture is of what I look @ everyday down my long drive down ironwood, but I love where I live its so worth it! Ill see if I can come up with something more interesting tomorrow.
