Weekend Scenes and A "Mid-Week" Update

I started this post yesterday but, eh. Life.
 
Libby still likes to check out the goods that Mama brings home from town. She has done this since she was a wee babe. Grocery time is exciting times in Libby-land. Food! 
 
Of course, when I facebooked this photo, one of my cousins commented about how all he saw was crab cakes, bacon and frozen pizza and that didn't look like groceries to him. Well, I hate to tell him, but bacon isn't just groceries...it's LIFE. And also, I'm in a no-cook zone these days. Me and my kitchen are on a break. It's convenience food all the way. With some random veggies in there somewhere. Kale, even. Promise. Besides, those crab cakes are delishus! (intentional misspelling, ya'll. I haven't gone that crazy yet. And sad that I feel the need to explain that.)
 
 
My one impulse purchase from my Saturday morning shopping trip...Minion socks. They were on clearance for a buck and a quarter. How could I pass that up? Except...the bananas look like bones when they're stretched out on my feet so...creepy? A little bit?


Sunday after church and lunch nap. We snoozed all the good snoozes.
 

And...are these not hands down the cutest little puppy paws you ever did see??
 

Monday Milo Time for MLK day. Gotta love a pup with ears that big. haha
 

And also, kid time on MLK day. This was Efan's seven car pile-up that promptly got smashed.


For this week, I've been busting my bootay at work so I haven't really got too much to say. Except, I likely will not meet my book goal this week. Gonna try. I got three pages into a new book last night before I quite and watched Criminal Minds instead. And I'm not even usually a CM fan. I mean, I don't hate it, I just don't intentionally watch it, either. It's the ick factor. Last night's ick factor was severed  heads. You feel me? Even Shamar Moore can't hide that shizz. And Shamar Moore can hide a multitude of sins.

Actually, come to think of it, though. I didn't actually finish a book last week. I finished it Monday. But I'm counting it towards last week because Monday was an extension to the weekend. Sounds legit, right?

I haven't been sleeping great this week, either. Not sure why except that there are some situations at work that are stressing me out. Nothing particularly terrible but just some people who make my blood pressure spike for different reasons. And it's nothing really to lose sleep over but it's one of those things where my brain decides to chew on it at 2:30am. So annoying.

Oh, and did I tell y'all that the week of Christmas I hit the 15lbs lost mark and have since gained back 6lbs? yeah. That's awesome. Not. Do you know how utterly frustrating it is to see your short term goal in sight only to then see yourself screw it all up? *sobs* Well, I'm "back on the wagon"--sort of, she says as she's sipping a white mocha. 8-O

I'm Lost

Boy.  Last night was the most intense 2.5 hours of my LIFE. Well, the part of my life that I relegate to television viewing, anyway. Last night, as you may have heard, was THE END for LOST. If you haven't been watching it for the past six years, what were you doing with your life? LOL No, I know. It was one of those things you were either fully emersed in or you didn't want to expend the energy it took to follow it. Because it did take a lot of energy to follow it. And as much as I was held captivated by it, I am really too stupid to really full grasp it. No, seriously. I've read the discussion boards. I've followed other blogs about it. And I'd always be like, "Why didn't I catch that?" or "I completly missed that." My brain is merely too simple to comprehend all the little mysteries and tie-ins and connections that were hidden throughout six seasons of this show. It was no different last night. Honestly, the finale was gripping an...

Me and the boob tube

Ever met someone who is passionate about her TV shows? Well, if not, you have now. Yeah, I'm probably fairly sad with how involved I become with some shows but believe me...I know some folks who are a LOT worse than me. Just trust me on this. I have maybe a handful of shows that I watch without fail whenever they're on and set my VCR to tape if I'm out. (Yeah, I still have a VCR...and I will until they no longer make 'em) Monday night is Medium night. Tuesday night is BB6 in the summer Charmed on TNT in fall. Wednesday is Lost and Alias (in regular season anyway) Thursday night is BB6 in summer and Will and Grace in fall. Friday night sucks since they cancelled Joan of Arcadia. Saturday night is BB6 in summer and Trading Spaces. Sunday night is Desperate Housewives and The 4400 in summer. Everyday things are Gilmore Girls on ABC Family, 30 Minute Meals on Food Network and Bold and the Beautiful. Last night, of course, was BB6. Now, I'm not one to enjoy many reality ...

Ten Things That Make Me Happy Today

Image
1.) Chuck . Chuck makes me very happy. I'm still flying high from the time I spent with him last night. Seriously, it's like the second Zachary Levi walks on screen and gives that trademark smile my heart goes all gooey in my chest and my lips curve up all dreamy smile-ish and for that one hour each Monday night I'm on cloud nine. Pitiful, no? 2.) Her. 'Nuff said. 3.) My friends. All of 'em. Ms. B who I only get to see once a month and chat on the phone every few weeks. E who talks me into field trips to Starbucks so that we can blame each other for being bad. Trix who hated the way Medium ended, too. (And always sends me the awesomest handmade cards.) BFF who calls once a month to update me on the ever shifting drama of her life. (She's doing much better, by the way. Goes back to work next week.) Jen who  once--in a round about way--compared me to the awesome Pioneer Woman. (And who's love story to her fireman still gives me hope that true love real...
