Hahaha. I’m just so freakin’ hilarious.

Some of you know about the recent chop. Here’s the proof.

The blurry before shot

 

POW!

Where are you? You have not been on my mind lately. I don’t have anything to say to you. I know I have been busy. I’m sure there are lots I could say to you. But, you stray from my brain.

What do you want from me? Do you want pictures? Do you want a story? Do you want bullets?

WordPress, (or readers?), what do you want of me?

A new bloggy blog.

I love this new blog. It’s real. It’s funny. It’s many of us.

Go on. READ!

Wow. I thought I would have time, energy, and desire to blog now that school is over for the semester. Turns out, I have none of the above. I’ve taken up reading for pleasure! It’s true. I’ve been able to revisit an old love of reading. I’ve been enjoying some absolutely beautiful weather in good ol’ Tennessee. I’ve even managed a sunburn or two.

Lovey is amazing. She sings constantly. She is so, so smart and inquisitive and intuitive and awesome. She continues to charm the pants off everyone she meets. She’s fearless and curious about the world. She wears anywhere from a 12 to 24 months in shorts but a 2T in shirts. She goes to church every Sunday and most Wednesday nights. She loves KDO and all her friends. She continues to surprise me on a daily basis.

I’m excited to begin my pharmacy school journey this August at the great UT Memphis. Finally. And I’m so glad I didn’t completely give up. I won’t say I didn’t temporarily give up at some time, but I managed to jump back in and stick with it.

So, that’s it for now. Intriguing stuff.

So, a few weeks back, I stumbled up MckMama’s blog. I was captivated by her bravery and admired her strength. I was in awe of little Stellan. And I nearly wept with joy when he got to go home!

In honor of one of my new favorite blogs, I present

 

I did not take a nap this morning after taking Lovey to KDO. I spent those five hours tirelessly scrubbing floors and doing laundry. I did not neglect all household chores today. Not.at.all.

I also did not wait to take a shower until 1:30 this afternoon right before I picked Lovey up from KDO.

While Lovey played at the mall, I did not sip on a Starbucks and judge that mama for her jugs hanging out of her shirt. I totally studied the whole time.

I did not let Lovey have two sour gummy worms this morning. Not the two greens one that she wanted. Nope.

 

Well, I promise to get better with my Not Me Mondays. I didn’t have much time today as I have a Biochemistry final in the morning.

What happened to my blog roll???

Kissing her newest cousin, Kristen Paige.

 

She just couldn’ t love on her enough.

My newest neice, Kristen Paige, her blog debut.

 

My nieces Marshia and Eva. And there’s Lovey. We had a slumber party while Eva’s mommy was in the hospital with Kristen.

I know, crazy. I’m on a blogging roll tonight.

I can see a change! Slowly, but surely. Maybe by next summer she won’t be stared at or questioned by other kids.

I think I need to deal with some anxiety issues.

I was sitting at the intersection where the gas station is that Lovey had her seizure.

I noticed I was breathing heavy.

I started to tear up.

It’s been about 30 minutes and I still can’t shake it off.

I think about that Dec. 14 day a lot.

Probaby too much.
