Memory

I take so many photos that it doesn't take long before it consumes my computer & makes it run too slow. I really need to invest in some more computer memory. Thankfully D has his own laptop now & I got to remove some of the things he had installed on mine. That helped a ton. Plus I saved my photos & put them in the fire proof box.

Merchandiser

Most of my working days I spent in retail. I loved it for the most part. And one of my most favorite parts were doing the window displays & dressing the mannequins. I learned to be a good merchandiser from a very early age. My parents owned a gas station & my Mom taught me how to display things. One of my jobs were going up & down the aisle at night & making sure all of the products were facing out.

Jobs

Back in November D lost his job. And it was out of the blue. He immediately search through jobs online. But thankfully he made a phone call to a friend & that friend referred him to a place in need of someone with D's skills in the sound industry. The catch...A move to Memphis. He is now on his 6th week of commuting. While I am home packing & looking online for homes. Hopefully we will know something on a house this week & the BIG move will officially happen.

Get the pounds off

I have gained so much weight in the last year. Blah. And right now I am in the midst of so much emotional eating, with the move to Memphis & all the changes going on around me that are out of my control. I want to lose some weight, but there is no way I could even begin to focus on that. But once we get moved & settled I will be look a     diet pill review for sure. I am going to need all of the help I can get.

Award Season

Awards season is coming up. I just love seeing all of the dresses. I think I like to see the worst dressed list, more than the best. I know those ladies in Hollywood know of a crash diet that works, to fit into those new frocks. Please they want to be in tip tip shape for the thousands of photos that was taken during this time of the year. I can not imagine being set up for that kind of scrutiny these people are under on a daily bases.

War Eagle!


This is how Rocco & I watched the National Championship. That is until I was jumping up & down yelling at the TV. Our team won!!!! War Eagle!

The Great Snow 2011

Tomorrow we are expecting a "great" snow storm here in Alabama. If you know anything about Alabama weather, than you it does not snow here very often. So, when the weather men say "snow" there is a frenzy. The grocery stores are wiped clean of food & safety goods. And every generator in town including the honda generator eu2000i are sold out! This is serious business in these parts. You should see the isles at the grocery store tonight. There is nothing left.

Remodels

I have been searching & searching the internet for a home for us. Some have been so cute. Then there are the ones that are horrendous. They need to be remodeled completely. Especially the bathrooms, which need a new toilet, bath vanity & tub. I am honestly not that picky. If I were, I wouldn't be living where I do now. Haha! But I want a home to be nice.

A new year

Life is changing a lot right now. We made it through the Holidays. My house is now half packed up. D is commuting for work. We are looking for a place to live. And my head is swirling as my heart is breaking. Welcome 2011.
