The moving to Dallas adventure started today with the packing of the moving truck. It took chris and his dad about 5 hours to get everything out of there! They worked so hard!!! It rained a little but the severe weather isn’t suppose to get here until tonight. So now it’s worrying about weather time. And after severe weather (or possibly in the middle of it) we will be off to Dallas tomorrow morning.

I am feeling like a hobbit:
“We are plain quiet folk and have no use for adventures. Nasty disturbing uncomfortable things! Make you late for dinner!”

And tomorrow I’ll be Bilbo pushed out the door on an adventure.

But my mom made me and chris cookies and I’m taking milk with me in a cooler. So I don’t have to worry about missing breakfast or second breakfast or any of the other hobbit meals.




Weather, curtains, the evil sun….

#1. Friday we had severe weather. Tornado watches and warnings, all that good stuff. So I turned on The Weather Channel because I wanted to see where a tornado was going and The Weather Channel was showing a movie. A MOVIE! There was no mention of the weather anywhere on the screen and I wouldn’t have even known it was the weather channel if it hadn’t had it’s logo on the bottom of the screen. WTF? WHY ARE THEY SHOWING MOVIES??? IT IS THE WEATHER CHANNEL! THERE WAS A TORNADO!

#2. Oh EVIL EVIL SUN!! My doctor sent me a letter with the results of my annual blood tests and the only thing that came back bad was that my Vitamin D levels are low. This is because I don’t get enough sunlight!!!!!!! I think this is the funniest thing ever. So now I have to take vitamin D.

#3. Chris and I went to Dallas and back yesterday. IT WAS THE LONGEST DAY. But we got the lease signed which took about an hour and would’ve been really annoying to do on moving day…WHICH IS NEXT SATURDAY!

#4. At the moment I’m not too freaked out about moving day. This is probably because I’m in bed and I have no more packing left to do except for throwing my clothes in my dirty clothes box. And I’m eating brownies and talking to my sister on the phone and I’m in my pajamas looking online for some curtains. Why are curtains so expensive? Why are they all so ugly? What is a good price to spend on curtains? I just don’t know these things! Our living room has five windows. THAT IS A LOT OF WINDOWS.




Robert’s baby!

I’ve known Robert FOREVER, since he was in kindergarten and I was in first grade. But we didn’t become friends until high school. He had a baby back in February. Today, Chris and I went to go see her and Robert & Christy!

Robert + baby = funny.

There was much staring at the baby.

And pizza.

It was way better than packing, even though Chris and I should probably be doing that. But I did get to hold a tiny baby and squeeze little toes and rub her head. That’s always entertaining.

MORE PACKING TOMORROW! I’m working on packing the kitchen now.
