My new roommate



Yep, it's official.
I've moved out.

And I now am living at my mom's,
sharing a room with my 7 yr old.

It's interesting where life can lead you sometimes.

We snuck through security.

Can you believe they let us through airport security with weapons?!




My boys bought Light Sabers at Disney World...



And carried them on board...



Just so you know, if you were on our flight, from Florida to Dallas, Texas...




You were safe from any Sith Lords or Storm Troopers.

Even Coke is Cooler at Disney.

We were in Disney Hollywood Studios, near the American Idol exhibit,
and my boys found these coke bottles.

We had to get them.

How cool is that?




Even the coke machines are awesome.



I don't think Disney knows how to tone anything down.



And who wants it to?!!

Princesses get to have all the fun

Is it true you can actually STAY in the castle at Disney World?




Did you know that the cast members in every hotel, restaurant and ride call all the little girls they see "princess?" They do.

And, as the mother of boys, I have to say, I'm so glad they didn't call my boys "princes."





I saw the princesses while I was in Disney World.
And wow, do they have it made.






When I grow up, I want to be a princess at Disney World in Orlando, FL.





Oh, yah, these mice don't have it too badly either...




Which Princess (or Disney character) would you like to be?
Some of those costumes look really hot.

Dead meat in the Texas Heat

Here in Texas it has been over 100 degree almost every day this month.

I kid you not.




My older son was reading out the temperatures for the week,
and my younger son said, "Well, we're dead meat."


I happen to agree.

All I have to do is THINK about going outside...
and I start sweating.

WMDs in my Living Room

Boys.




My house has become a danger zone.






Annie and I have gone into hiding.

Wake Up Calls


I wake up to the radio in the morning.

My alarm clock has the ability to play a horrible beeping noise...
or a radio station...
or a CD of my choice.

I've never sat down and really figured out how to set the CD.

I'm not sure which CD to choose.

Soft piano music?
Hard rock?


What do YOU wake up to?

Beware Greeks bearing Gifts. Or brothers.

We've all heard the story of the Trojan Horse, right?

Where the Greeks made this huge horse and gave it to the Trojans...
but inside this gift horse was the Greek army.



Well, something like that occurred in my household yesterday.

My 12 yr old son gave my 7 yr old son a "gift."
He gave him his favorite drink.
Apple juice.

Only it wasn't apple juice.

Which my 7 yr old discovered when he drank it.

I think you can guess what it was.

I'm speechless.
