Oh No The Big 3-0

Wow, the big 30. What's the big deal? Im not sure but I do know that I've been bummed a lot lately. Is it the birthday? The fact that 2008 has flown by? The fact that the Chiefs SUCK and Boston didn't make it to the series?! Oh well... 30 bring it on! (it's better then the other option!) LOL


So.. Happy Birthday to me! Happy Birthday to me! Work decorated my office and made me a strawberry cake... YUM.

My Husband surprised me with some roses and took me to lunch. I also got the Indiana Jones movie, Kenny Chesney's new CD, a new camera,a new chair for my living room and Mom and Dad took me out for Crablegs! YUM YUM!


Then evening consisted of shooting pool with my husband and my Kristin.

Hello Fall!

Sweaters, colorful leaves, bonfires, marshmellows and pumpkins!

What's not to love? Especially the pumpkins! I love Pumpkins! My cat Spikes nickname is even Pumpkin! I love the color, the smell, the taste, the starbucks pumpkin spice coffee! Normally I am not a big "starbucker" but when they bring out the pumpkin spice coffee i just can't resist blowing that $5 bucks. Oh and lets not forget pumpkin pies and coolwhip!

I decided I wanted to go enjoy the beginings of fall so Danny, jack and I loaded up in the Rondo and hit the road. We ended up at Shawnee Mission Park. The trees haven't really started to change yet but the deer were out! Wow did we see the deer! I beleive we seen about 80 that night. I took my nieces and nephews back to the Park on Saturday and we counted 115 deer. Wow! Up next... 30!

Wake Up Call

Friday Night I spent with my Best friend in the ER.
Monday Morning my husband rushed himself to the ER.
Both had funky problems with their hearts. Both are young adults, Both I love so very much. Having them both in the ER because of their hearts scared me to death. It hits you that at any given time the ones you love the most can be taken away from you. And eventually will be one day.

Wake Up Tonya!

I am more over weight then they are and way less active. I am very lucky that I dont have lots of medical problems being my size. I do have emotional and physical problems.
I cry 90% of the mornings I go to work because I am overweight and dont like my clothes, or because the pants I wore last month wont zip this month. It's time to get my butt in gear and get motivated! Motivation is something I lack in everything I do. I don't need to be skinny, but I do need to be smaller.....

Help I Can't See!

Well I've been wanting some new glasses... but I didn't want to have to get them this way! Jack, our adorable boston terrier puppy, got his little paws on my glasses. It's probably a good thing Danny found my glasses before me! After straining half the day to see, I slapped on some duct tape on the ear piece and went to Eye Masters. (http://www.eyemasters.com/) After the duct tape i realized I am truely a redneck's wife. :) however the dog had also gotten ahold of the duct tape and there was a million little holes in it so it woudln't roll out. Blurry vision, holes and chew marks in the lenses and duct tape ear piece, I finally made it to the mall. 2 hours later I finally leave with a new pair of eye glasses. I'm so thankfull for the person who invented one hour eye glasses.
