My Birthday

Okay, so yes, my birthday was over three months ago, but Apple Jacks had some technical difficulties.  So three months later my gift arrives. Here's the picture from Etsy.  They are much smaller then they look here, but due to the fact i can't find the cable for my camera I can't show you what they look like in my ears. They are fun and funky and I love them dearly. 

Many things

Many things have happened and I haven't really been keeping up.  So Ms. E was here and we did stuff.  Like wedding dress shopping. Yet, despite what felt like 57 hrs of dress shopping, no dress was found, but she did find a potential wedding band to go with her ring.

We also went to a baseball game.  I know the Giants were playing, 'cause we were at their stadium but who they were playing... well I think they had red on their uniform... The giants did win, which is a rare thing this year.  We had a good time, drank beer, enjoyed the sun, and eat churros. 

This is the "awesome" picture Apple Jacks took, (he was all proud of himself talking about how he got an A in photo class in high school, that was like 500 years ago).

Ms. E is Coming!

I'm excited and nervous, as to be expected.  She' getting married, we hope, later this year and needs to find a dress.  Since she lives in Iowa, at the moment, she hasn't been exposed to much culture or well... anything other then corn really.  So I made her come out here.  We'll see how it goes.  Her budget is tighter then a Henry the VIII style corset. Thats going to be her, our biggest challenge.  I just want to have a good time and be silly trying on dresses.  We'll see.  

Worst part is, she's here the same time my driveway isn't.  Now, i have a driveway that's about 100 yrd long.  (might be slightly off).  The lay the gravel on Wed. and Thur. Pave on Friday and we can't touch it Sat.  Ms. E gets here Wed night, and leaves Sunday am.  Maybe she'll get to take the first steps up the new asphalt. That would be good.  She was the first college friend to see my house pre-remodel.  Ms. T came during remodel and now Ms. E will see it post remodel but not 100% done.  Will it ever be 100% done... I'm not so sure at this point.  Anyway, the "guest/roommate office" room is ready.  The bed is made and there are even hangers in the closet.  I tried to make the comforter smell like lavender, we'll see.  I get into the hostess thing.
