  • sometimes I wonder who "out there" might be stopping by my blog.  I have lots of unidentified footprints (for you non xangans, footprints is a link i can click that shows me what kind of traffic is coming through my blog.)--from places like Hong Kong, Netherlands.  One time I even had prints from some middle eastern country. Seems the best way to draw people out of anonomity is to post something about dead animals or even a picture of a pretty little buck that will, yes, hang on my wall (it already is.)

    It just strikes me as funny that folks are more inclided to respond a few and far between post about my husband's hunting than to my everyday thoughts about life, motherhood, Jesus, goofy kid-things, books, shopping, cakes, bargains, baby hugging and general life randomness.  Not that many extra people commented yesterday.  Just two that I've never seen around before (and one didn't even have to do with the dead deer, i don't think.)  But, I'm okay with it.  After all, that's how I met you, Katie.   I'm just saying.  That's my much-to-lengthy-way to say that it intrigued me that I saw two new people yesterday.

    Okay then.

    Yesterday I took care of the vacation shrapnel that littered my entire home sweet home.  And then Aunt Tammy came over for a lovely, lovely visit.  We sat & chatted for hours & hours while the two little ones slept.  It was very refreshing & relaxing.  And I haven't had the chance to visit with her like that for....well....I don't think we ever have!  So, A.Tammy.  Thanks!  It was fun!

    I made an email address for Baby Hugger shirts babyhuggertees@gmail.com fyi for any of you who ordered one and might have friends that like 'em.

    I'm sleeeeeeepy. foggy. cloudly. dull.  I'd like to spend the entire day sitting here sorting through the almos 300 pictures I uploaded to shutterfly.  and making photobooks and blah blah. But, duty calls.  My 8am-8am job has just begun.  I'll upload pics to my share site soon.  I think I should go grocery shopping, too.

    I'm sitting here trying to think of something--anything--random, witty, cute, informative, boring even--to say.  And I'm coming up empty.  So...I guess good-bye!

    Happy THURSDAY!

    I had a new person on my site yesterday, too.  Hmmm.  Maybe it was the day for it.

    How in the world did you clean up from vacation (shrapnel --Ha!) AND have time to visit for hours with Aunt Tammy?  I'm still digging out from some camp mess from a couple of weeks ago.  Ugh.

    @gsowell - i should have said "some of the" shrapnel.   it's still around.  it never ends really.  i guess it's the shrapnel of life.

    I love your blog....and don't tell Matt..but I prefer the mommy, Jesus, books and bargains talk to blogs about dead deer.  And I love it even when you don't think you have anything witty to say...because really, you always do!

    :) :) :)


    I agree with Christy - although I am also a country girl by marriage, I still like the conversations about non-dead-deer topics.


    And I love the term "vacation shrapnel"! So true! Good luck - and happy 4th of July weekend!

    I too love your blog and I love my new baby hugger shirt I got in the mail yesterday!!!  It's adorable!  Did notice though that it cost you more than $4 to ship it....I'll send you another dollar.  Glad you had a good visit with your Aunt and got all that lovely vacation shrapnel put away.  Have a great one!

  • faithchick

    @Oly16 - so glad you like it! :)  Please don't send any more money!  i'll send it right back!   It was my fault--i reused a prioriyty mail envelopeuuuuuuuuuuuuu so i had to send it priority, otherwise it would've been first class & less. :)Gg
