Thank goodness college football is here......

FIRST....I have huge apologies to the number 2 man in my life....I completely forgot to wish my baby bro a VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!! Monday this precious piece of pie turned 22!!!!! Oh my how you have grown up. Davis, you mean the world to me and I am so incredibly thankful that God gave you to me. I am so very proud to call you my brother and my protector. I cannot wait to see what your future holds. The world is your oyster big guy....I love you........

Now, onto why I am excited about football season: for those of you that know me in "real life" are probably baffled by this statement....when I say, thank goodness college football is here, I subliminally mean thank goodness college tailgating is here.....I am notorious for not going into the games.....it's hot, there are too many stairs, as soon as I get situated I have to go to the bathroom, I can go on with my reasoning, but I will save you my bitching. I just like to camp out at the spot and hold court there. Every year the hubs and I have this

• H: "I can't believe you don't want to go in"


• M: "Why? You won't even miss me! Just text me updates"


• H: "Just come in for a quarter"


• M: "How about I just sit here and wait for you?"


• H: "Arrgghhh!!!"

And there you have it....a recreated scenario from every opening Citadel game....

But on a lighter note, football season means that football is on 24/7 in our house and when football is not on the big screen, then it means my husband is in the woods somewhere trying to shoot something....yes my friends, hunting season is upon us so I have kissed my husband goodbye until New Years Day.....before you start shedding any tears for TCO, let me let you in on how I plan on spending all this newly acquired singledom...reading and catching up on honey do tasks!!!! When the tube is on the pigskin, I get to catch up on all the reading that I didn't get done this Summer, and when the hubs is away, I get to catch up on projects around the house.....this excites me greatly as my list is growing by the minute!!!!!!

First book on the list........

I should be able to knock this one out pretty fast so I need some other ideas....send them my way dear blovies....

First up on the honey do list? The Bug's room....I've got some much much overdo projects for her nursery as we make the (VERY SLOW) transition to a big girl room (tear, tear, tear). I am a few steps ahead of myself here, but I am tackling some artwork that I want to hang, including some by the Bug herself, and I am painting a mini tea table for her since her newest fave activities are drawing and painting......next on the list is building some shelving for her (ever expanding) closet, and getting all of her clothes (NB-present) in Rubbermaids and organized by season and size.

I'm already exhausted reading my list.....but I am super excited about knocking out some projects around the house!

AND our anniversary is coming up in 12 days!!!!! I've already got Daddyo's gift ordered! I am on the ball this year!!!
