and.......I'm back.

Okay.....so it's been a while since posted...I have been:

Working
Kyan got a cold
Working
We went to California
Working
I got drunk during the VP debate so as not to shoot myself
We went to Pennsylvania
Kyan learned to walk
Working
Kyan is getting another tooth
Working

So yeah, it's been busy.

I will post pics from sunny California, where I finally got to meet up with my message board buddies, Michelle, Julie and Alana-and had a GREAT time, just as soon as I have the time to upload them.

Fallen off the wagon with my diet, though still trying to be good walking, and I fully intend to get back on the horse with that......

The real question is:
Should I ask Jon for Doc Marten's for Christmas? I wear nothing but flats any more, so buying fancy, cute shoes no longer makes sense....and I am trying to downsize the shoe collection, which once numbered close to 50 pairs because I don;t have the room and I never wear most of them.....and I used to LIVE in a pair of bronze Doc Martens......But seeing as they are 12 years old, and no longer bronze from wear and tear, perhaps it is time for a new pair? and this is certianly more practical than say, jewelry......
VOTE PLEASE:
Leopard-always fun and funky:


Cherry Red-Red being my favorite color and a nice way to liven up all the black (it's slimming! really!) that I wear:


Because embroidered shoes are always fun:


Metallic Blue-Um, these are bright metallic blue-WHAT IS NOT TO LOVE?


These make me think of funky wing tips...They'd probably get dirty really quickly, but aren't they cool??


Okay, well that's all for now.....Please let me know what you think of the boots.....it may be THE MOST IMPORTANT DECISION YOU MAKE THIS YEAR-(Screw the election).

I ate my way thru New England....

Ahhh, the Big E (also known as "The New England States Exposition")......an Annual event in which you pay $15 per person to get in, then pay way too much money for deeply fried foods.....it is wonderful.

I have been backsliding the last few weeks with my weight loss, so I have renewed my commitment with Weight Watchers and counting my points and am writing everything down....

It's been busy here, but fun-I have lots of new pictures and video to share!

But first, I have to post this clip from Saturday's Season opener of SNL-I thought it was SO dead on....I have probably watched this clip 20 times, and it is STILL hysterical:


Here is what happens when Mommy plays with hair gel:

Lastly, Kyan took about three steps on his own today!!!

Happy Birthday!

To my Honey, Pooh bear, and generally Awesome! husband, Jon.

Happy 30th Birthday, honey!

You are the best Dad and Husband any woman could ask for, and I am a lucky lady indeed. I look forward to celebrating many more birthdays with you!

I love you!

Why I loved the 90's

Because Tammy Wynette was in a KLF video....which included lyrics like:
"They're justified and they're ancient and they drive an ice cream van"...


And whatever happened to Salt N Pepa and En Vogue?? I can so clearly remember rapping to this song about my crushes when I was 14......I'm so white.....
