What an evening...

The other evening I was heading over to Gulfport to do some shopping. I was crossing over the railroad tracks heading to Beach Blvd so I could take the scenic route. As I looked to the west, I saw the biggest, most beautiful full moon. To my east was a beautiful sunset on the water. I want to share these two fantastic scenes that I saw...ENJOY!!!




What a good morning!

Well, the other day I woke up to a very unusual kind of morning. What was falling out of the sky... SNOW! YES! I really think I was the only person really excited to see snow falling from the sky. I was also disappointed that it wasn't sticking or that it only lasted about 25 minutes. It was really pretty falling. If only we lived a little bit more north maybe it would have stuck and not melted as soon as it hit the ground. Here are a few pictures of the unexpected snow fall...



Oh I also have this theory that when we get snow on the Gulf Coast we get a hurricane the next year.
Snow Christmas day 2004 - Katrina 2005

I am testing my theory this next year.

I know, I know...

I'm BORING!


Really, I am trying not to be. I'm home. Visiting with the fam. Going through all my boxes trying to downsize. I did dog sit this past weekend. That really wasn't too exciting. Just me and Brat sitting on the couch watching tv. Well I watched tv, Brat slept. Oh we did go for a walk to the beach...that was the most exciting thing we did.

Oh tonight I did go to Gulfport and visited with James, Krissy and Streett. He is so stinking cute. Starting to walk. Loved when I did this little piggy...he has the greatest laugh! And he can say my name! YAY me! And I am a bit stoked that I may get to watch him while Krissy and James go to Dallas for the Cotton Bowl over New Years (Go Rebels!!!)... James' mom is suppossed to watch him but maybe I will get lucky and get to spend 3 days with the little guy!

Next Wednesday Adrienne and I are going to get our hair cut... should I get a trim or do something new and exciting??? Opinions welcome!

I am applying like crazy to districts everywhere... as I noted in my previous post. No calls yet, but some have contacted my references, so that is a good sign. Right? I think so.

I am trying to get all my cousins together to go to Christmas in the Oaks in New Orleans. (Oh it is now called Celebration in the Oaks... you know all the politically correct junk- I still call it Christmas...) It is seriously my favorite part of the all the holiday festivities.

So that is all for today. I will try to be a bit more exciting. I promise!
Cheerio!

Leaving Las Vegas



Well, a week ago I left Las Vegas...one moment please, I have to wipe the tears away.

Ok, yes it was very sad. In the short time I lived in Vegas, I grew to love the city. I tried to utilize every spare moment I had to take in all the city/area had to offer. I think I did pretty good at exploring and discovering all the beauty and excitement Las Vegas has to offer. I wouldn't have minded staying a little longer, but the earliest I could get a job there is mid January. So I could end up back there if nothing else comes along before then.

After leaving Vegas, I spent a few days in Dallas at Cat's house. It was pretty fun. Now I am home...blah. I am dog sitting for Aunt Kim while she and Mark are in Oxford for a wedding. Other than hanging out with the dog, I have been nonstop applying for jobs. I have been applying EVERYWHERE... Texas, Arizona, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virgina, Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky, New York, Washington DC, just to list a few.

Well, that's all I have to say about that! I need to watch the Bama/Florida game!

Later Gators

Still Alive..

Hey Yall!

I just wanted to let you now that I am still alive. Right now I am somewhere in Oklahoma for the day - Cat and I are hanging out with Kelsie Jo at the college she goes to. Cat and I were laughing at how here we are college graduates and what do we do... get up before the sun rises to go to class with Kelsie Jo. Nuts I know. But we are having fun hanging out in the library while KJ is in her oh so full history class.

Later today we will be going to the famous Jones BBQ... well it is famous if you live in the Denison/Sherman/McKinney Texas area. I am stoked, I love some good BBQ. Tomorrow we are heading into Dallas to watch Kidd Kraddic in the Morning radio show being broadcast. I have listened to the show for almost 10 years, so this will be exciting to get to see it live. Maybe if we are lucky, we may get to be on air. This is our goal for tomorrow. So, if you are somewhere where a station broadcast them, listen up becasue we could be on the radio. After KKITM, Kj, Cat and I are heading to Cats mom's book club meeting. It's a big thing... she said usually about 40 or so people show up. I haven't read or heard of the book they are going over (I don't remember the name), so I won't be able to give much imput. Oh well. They are going to have these amazing crousiants and chicken salad, so that will be good. :)

After Tuesday, plans have not been made... maybe we will just sleep in :)

That's all for now folks
