    Life and times of a chub…

    Friday, June 27th, 2008

    I’ve always thought college was a cruel and unhappy place for the chubby girl. What is college all about? Food and boys right? So- how do these things fit in with chubby girls? Well, this is my theory: How much fun is it in school to order pizza and soda pop with the roommates, stay [...]

    Always an Adventure….

    Sunday, June 22nd, 2008

    We’re back and we survived. I was raised in the boonies. Not quite the same boonies as it is now. There are always interesting animals around our home. I remember one morning we were eating breakfast and a horse ran by the back window. That was tame compared to what we have now. In the [...]

    The “Fly”ing Circus

    Friday, June 13th, 2008

    I was outside watering yesterday- and a large dog poop log was staring me in the face. Instead of getting a bag and picking up the said poop I just looked at it and marveled at how many flies could fit on one single log of poop. I tore my eyes away from it for [...]

    Over the River and through the woods…

    Thursday, June 12th, 2008

    (and 1200 miles down the road) to grandmother’s house we go. Yes, we are going back to Texas. HOoray- the food is like none other and oh the massages from my brother. In case any of you didn’t know my brother graduated from Utah College of Massage Therapy and he is excellent at what he [...]

    OH I wish I could go to the BEACH!!

    Tuesday, June 10th, 2008

    This is our last trip to the beach which was May 3rd!! It’s been way too long!  Here’s a pic of Jeebs digging a tunnel for tates. Thought it was cute- even though he is almost totally gray!!

    Staying Indoors

    Tuesday, June 10th, 2008

    Lately going outside has been comparable to auditioning for fear factor. The kids sit inside all day and watch TV or play computer games. So ridiculous!! We finally gave in last night and went to Target and got a swimming pool. It’s not big, but it’ll do for right now- it’s big enough for Jeeb’s [...]

    My first baby shower

    Friday, June 6th, 2008

    My first baby shower went off without a hitch.  The decorations turned out pretty cute and the food was pretty tasty. It was 90+ degrees outside and I made pizza in a 425 degree oven, not one of my smartest moves. My house was 78 degrees and a/c didn’t click off until around 2 or [...]

    Working out

    Tuesday, June 3rd, 2008

    Does anybody else get tired of working out all the time, just to have the scale never move? Or move only in painfully small increments? I do. I still workout though, it keeps me sane and gives me the ability to be nice to people. There’s nothing worse than going many days without working out [...]
