Mad props to Chili’s

We had a challenging day today so we decided to take advantage of a great Chili’s “kids eat free” coupon I got yesterday off couponchaosmama.com. So we headed out to our local Chili’s here in Rowlett. We ordered our meals and sat down to wait. The kids drank all their orange juice while we were [...]

Thankful

My poor baby

Yesterday, I got all dressed up to go to work, kissed my family goodbye, and went out to the garage to start the car. The car wouldn’t start. Crap. I walked back in the house and calmly told my husband, “I think my battery’s dead. Do you have jumper cables?” “Uh,” he answered sadly, “No.” [...]

Thanks, Google!

Thank you, Google Fairy!

Imagine my surprise when I came home the other day to find a package from Google at my door! What would it be? A cool T-shirt? An all-expenses magical job offer to work with Avinash? So, I opened the box to find… $1,000 worth of gift cards for AdWords! Whoa! Cool! I imagine I got [...]

Appreciation

My church, Catalyst, had pastor appreciation day today. It was also our day to serve by teaching Sunday school. (Once a month, TK and I teach a class of 2-3 year olds as our volunteering for the church.) I guess we really appreciate our pastors, because the church was PACKED today. We had 9 kids [...]

Cocoa

Our damn puppy

I’m sitting here, at the end of a good day, on the tail of a great weekend… when the dog decides she wants to start nibbling on my feet. This reminds me of when my friend Mia said to me, confused, “How come you never write about Cocoa?” The reason I haven’t written about the [...]

Snow.

I woke up this morning, utterly surprised to find that there was about a foot of snow outside – and STILL coming down. Now let me put this into context. Friday, it was 74 degrees out, sunny and beautiful. Yesterday, it was around 40 and overcast. Today, it’s the damn arctic tundra. I think my [...]

Love and marriage

I had my holiday dinner with my friend Hawk tonight. She gave me a really pretty silver ring. I liked it so much I put it on right there at the table, and wore it the rest of the night. When I got home, I showed it to my daughter ST when I got home [...]
