If you need me, I'll be on the couch, under a blanket.

Once I get home from the grocery store, that is. It's cold. It's raining. And I have a new book.......the prefect recipe for a Saturday. I'm supposed to walk 5 miles today, but the weather is not cooperating. I don't mind the cold and the rain, but the combination of the two is a little much for 5 miles. But......if it gets a little bit colder and the rain turns to snow....I'll be walking.
Probably the best news of the week is that the King goes to work at 7 am Monday morning! WooHoo! It's a seasonal job and not as many hours as he would like, but its SOMETHING. And having not as many hours will allow him to continue his search for the perfect job. Is there such a thing as a 'perfect' job? Maybe there is....gotta have hope anyway.
Remember the post about boys blue jeans? Well, we went to Old Navy last night. Took one pair back and Wyatt tried on about 10 other pair. Well......*drum roll please*......Boys sizes will no longer work for Wyatt. Yes folks....he is in a 29 x 30. (Boot Cut at Old Navy....hint, hint Gaga!....just kidding) So, we bought one pair since he told us that he'd be wanting to wear shorts as soon as it gets warm enough. Pretty exciting Friday night, eh?
For those of you that know the story, PawPaw Charlie is doing better from what we hear and should be coming home today. We're hoping that he will do OK and be comfortable at home.
Thanks for reading....almost 1,100 now! Keep warm and stay dry today....xoxox

She knows he's a vampire.

I broke down and bought Twilight over the weekend. It's been awhile since I've had a good book, so I thought Twilight would be as good as any. Holy Cow! It's really good. It's a good thing I didn't buy the rest of the series....I'd need to take a week of vacation! Anyway, I'm past the part where Bella finds out that Edward is a vampire. I'm a little over half way through it and I wish I could stay home today! If you're looking for an easy read....Twilight just might be the answer. Even though it came from the Young Adult section in Books-A-Million.....I'm really enjoying it. Does that mean I'm not really an Old Adult yet? I hope so!
Well, I'm headed to the shower...y'all have a great day and I promise spring is right around the corner! xoxox

One Thousand!

Y'all have been here officially 1,000 times...WOW! When I started "Make Me Some Supper" in October...I wasn't sure that I would keep up with it. Now, 76 posts later....I suppose I have! Knowing that y'all are reading helps and your comments also help. The crew I live with here gives me endless inspiration. Things will happen and they will tell me...you gotta blog that or nobody will believe THAT just happened! A few friends have mentioned to me that they would like to start a blog. DO IT! It's a fantastic way to keep up with your life....and it's great to read back over the things that have happened that were significant enough for you to blog about. It's also fun to read the other maybe 'insignificant' things that you've blogged about. So, thank you for dropping by from time to time....the door is always open....just don't be surprised to see you name mentioned here someday! Love y'all....and thanks! xoxox

My Happy Place

So as we were coming home last night....the King and Wyatt were in rare form....in many ways! They were up to their 'boy' tricks....sometimes I just can't keep up with all that (since I am a girl, after all). The King asked "How do you put up with us all the time....is there a 'Happy Place' in your mind that you go to?". Of course there is! My happy place is always sunny. It's an island and I have food and supplies delivered weekly. Sometimes I am alone in my happy place, sometimes friends visit. When I told them that last night, they ran with it! That's OK though. It's MY happy place, and I like it. It's in my head, not theirs or yours. Everyone has a place that they go to in their head. Don't y'all??? Now that y'all probably think that I've lost my mind and gone permanently to my 'Happy Place'....I have to leave for a birthday party. I hope y'all have your own happy place...if not, you need to get one! xoxox

Baby, it's cold outside....again!

Every year it happens. We have a few warm, pretty days and then another cold snap. We all act like it's never happened before though. All day , we will hear about how cold it is outside. We forget that it's still only February...and February is still wintertime! I'll admit, though, I'm ready for some sunshine. Ready to get some color in every ones cheeks, ready to hear the mowers mowing and kids playing outside.....since obviously we aren't going to see any snow this year....again. But, remember what the groundhog said....SIX more weeks of winter...so I guess we will have to wait it out....this year....again.
At least it's Thursday. One more to go....then the weekend. We've got a very special 4th birthday party to go to on Saturday. Can't wait cause we all love the little fella! Y'all keep warm today! xoxox

Halfway there....

Halfway to the weekend, that is. Gotta love a short week. Too bad we can't have a short week every week! So, the King and I met with Wyatt's teachers yesterday. God bless all of the 6th grade teachers out there! Anyway, Wyatt has a lot of work to do. Since basketball has been over, he's kind of let a few things slide....Not any more! He knows what he needs to do....and he better do it. The teachers were great and the School Superintendent even poked his head in while we were meeting. Major bonus points for the teachers...maybe they will pass the bonus on to Wyatt! We can hope so anyway! Really though, they all seems to like Wyatt and want to see him do well. Thank goodness for that! We were talking afterward, and were very thankful that they all told us what a great kid Wyatt is and that he is always polite and very respectful and always has a smile on his face. So, we're all on the same page now and I think he will be fine...just gonna take some work. Y'all stay warm and dry today! xoxoxox

I don't get it.

So, once again, it's time to go through Wyatt's closet and argue with him about which jeans fit and which jeans don't. Why are the size 14's bigger around the waist than the 16's? But the 16's are like 8 inches longer??? Stupid. Whoever made the sizes must have been drinking that day. Anyway, he has 4 pair that are too tight, 2 pair that are too long, 1 pair that fits him, and 1 pair that he can't find. Come on springtime! I'm not going to get new jeans this close to warm weather. Call me a bad mom if you want...but I'm still not gonna do it. As soon as I go buy new jeans, it will be warm and he will want shorts. OH..the drama!
Anyway, back at it tomorrow...runny nose and all. The day after President's Day. At least there are no decorations to take down. Next up is St. Patrick's Day...bring on the green! Ok....where are the tissues....Bless me..I sneezed. Nite y'all....xoxox
