Happy Valentine's Day !!!!

So typically hubby and I don't really celebrate the traditional Valentine's day like most do I guess. We postpone our day to the 16th instead since this is our anniversary for the day we first met. (Awe!!)
But this year I was feeling crafty so I decided I wanted to make a gigantic card. Yes I can be crafty folks.  I headed to the local Hobby Lobby and loaded up on supplies to make my DH a huge V-Day card. And because I can be a dork at times, I screwed it up just a little. Everything was going great until DH yells to me that I have to hurry and come into the living room, like right at that exact moment. It was really important. Which it was because Lady Gaga(I <3 her) was just about to perform on the Grammy's. She is so bad ass and crazy. How can you not like this gal? Anyhoo, after I finished watching Gaga I went back to finish the card. I have a really bad habit of not paying close attention sometimes and get in a hurry to finish things. I thought that I knew where I left off with my sweet touchy-feely quote so I just summed up the bottom and signed it. Didn't realize that I left an important part out of the quote so it doesn't make any sense. I really didn't even notice this until after hubby read it and just kind of gave me this look. But darn it, it was the thought that counted. Right? Maybe you can see my error!

So Happy Valentine's Day to all you love birds out there!!!!

My next blog with be extra special. It's to feature my newest pair of Lady Gaga inspired shoes. ;)

Its offical. I am an Iphone Owner!!!!

So I am extremely excited folks. I have been very patient waiting for Verizon to release the much rumored Verizon Iphone 4. I was a lucky V customer that had an opportunity to get my hands on one early before public release. I had to set my dang alarm for 2:00am, slogged in and prayed that I beat out most since it was a first come first serve kind of thing.
As you obviously can guess, I got it. WooHoo!!! This phone is just badass folks. I really liked my Blackberry Storm2, but this phone is AMAZING. It's going to take some getting used to, but I am in love with my new Iphone.

So without further adieu, meet my new Fabulous Iphone

Projects Are Never Easy !!!

I am the type of person that when an idea hits me, it's stuck there and won't go away until I act on it. My  friend in the down under (Yes you know who you are) and I have discussed this before but it never really went any further than that. We currently have a steady place online that we can discuss our favorite writers and their books, but we get a slap on the hand by the forum moderators if we get off topic or get too personal. A few of us have made enemies over the years, which grant it, has made for entertainment to me more than anything and I can not help but anatoginize the situation more. :)
Oh and did I mention that it's a completely PG website. Very hard to think of PG retorts when you have a cyber argument with someone you really don't care for.

So I spent the weekend researching a new place for us. A place where the rules are more lax, or shall I say non existant. This will be OUR Forum. Where we can discuss what we want, when we want, and who we want to chat about!!!!
I had no idea what I was getting into honestly. I finally found a pretty cool place and the best part is, it's FREE!! Starting to come together nicely if I shall say so myself. I am hoping to have it up and running by the end of the week. So keep an eye out for some updates. Won't be long now.

We Got Snow!!!!!!!

So the last time we actually got snow here in San Antonio was back in January 1986, when we received 14' inches. It was great! Now to give you an idea what happens in our city when we get bad weather, everything just shuts downs. I mean everything. Schools, businesses, highways, etc.

I got up at about 6:00am to determine if my nephew's school would be closed for the day, which it was. I was hoping that we also would get a Snow Day off from work too. I wanted to see how much actually accumulated over night so I got my furry babies up to take with me outside and let them potty at same time. I felt so bad because as soon as I opened the door they both rushed out and slide real bad. It took them a  minute to figure it out but eventually they got the hang of it. We got a little over an inch or so of beautiful fluffy snow but that's like 12 inches to us.  My inner child came out big time and all I wanted to do was play in it. I started spelling my name in the snow and taking pictures of my pup's paw prints. I even made a mini snowman(see photo below). My hubby and nephew came out for a little while too, but we are not used to 20' degree weather and it was damn cold.
I called boss man and with all the ice and snow we didn't have to immediately rush to work and would just keep on eye on the weather. So I went back to bed to get a few more hours of shut eye. Which was so stupid because the damn sun came out all bright and shiny and most of the pretty snow was already melting by the time I finally got my rear out of bed. So our Snow Day was short lived because our boss was headed into work and we had to rush to get ready to get there too. But dang it, we got snow!!!!!!

My First blog EVER!!!

So this is my first official blog post EVER. I have no idea what I'm really doing, but hopefully I will learn as I go along.
I'm trying to encourage myself that I can do this. I can follow my dreams and accomplish something that I have dreamed out for years now. It's pretty simple. I love to write. I have no idea if I am any good at it, but hey who's to say that I can't be. Eventually anyways.(shrugs)

I have always had stories floating around in my head. Some I have actually written down and others not. I've  been working on the same book for probably close to ten years now. Crazy right? Procrastinating? Scared? Yes to all. But what the hell. I need to finish this book even if it leads to nothing. At least I know that I gave it my all and finished it finally. So my journey begins here. :)
