Randomness

-This weekend we Hubby, FIL & Friends finished our new deck!!  Our old one was painted red by the previous owners, gross, I know and then not weather treated.  So, we tore the old thing down and built new.  I love it and I cannot wait to share pictures with you all!

-I have to apologize for my lack of blogging again as of late,  life just keeps getting in the way.

-After 6 days & nights of rain we finally had a beautiful weekend or high 60-low 70 degree weather and sun!!

-I have 10 days after today at my current job!

-We won't be enjoying much of our summer because of how jam packed it is already.  Here's a little taste of what we have going on this summer:

-8 weddings (yes, you did just read 8!)
-4 trips to and from class for me... A total of 24 hours driving alone, not fun.
-2 Bachelor parties, 2 bachelorette parties, 2 wedding showers
-2 free weekends in the entire summer with nothing planned, YET.
-and a concert in a beer garden :-)

All of these events are happening on different weekends, therefore; every weekend is busy from here until sometime in July, I think.  It's hard to keep track of!   O, and NONE of them are happening where we live, so we have to drive at least an hour to each of these events.

Do you have lots of summer plans??  Are you just as busy as we are??  I cannot wait until ONE summer when we can just relax and not be running around so much.  Ha, that'll never happen.

Happy Monday!

What do you have planned for your Friday evening??

Facebook thoughts

What's your take on facebook?  Is it the root of all evil for our society?  Is it a nice place to catch up with old friends?  Is it the new stalker capital of the world?

Until recently, I've never really thought too much about Facebook.  I've been on Facebook since it "came" to my college.  It was a fun way to keep up with friends who attended different colleges than you, it seemed harmless.  Now everyone and their brother has it. 

It's scary.  To think that that many people can see a lot about you.  I never post when Jesse's gone for the weekend or long periods of time, because I figure, what if somebody reads that?  After all, most crimes are committed by someone you know. (I swear, I heard that somewhere and really, I think it's true).  Now days with places like Facebook, Myspace, Twitter, etc... stalkers are able to gain access about your whereabouts.  It's scary to think that someone reading my status updates on Facebook may be looking for just the right time to stop by my house to rob it while nobody's home.

The other day, I spent about 45 minutes deleting Facebook friends because I figured 900 people don't need to know what I'm doing with my life and if they need to know, they can use the old fashion way of calling, e-mailing or just word of mouth.

I deleted over 200 people and still need to do some weeding out.  I would hate to think that any of those "friends" would actually be using my information against me.  Afterall, I'm sure they probably aren't, but what if they were?  So anyway, I've decided to be more choosey when it comes to who is my "friend" on Facebook.

I'm sure one of these days when we have kids, I may decide to go private with my blog, but then again, maybe not.  Who knows.  I know where there is a will, there's a way for most criminals, I just think we should make it a little harder for them.  I'm not a twitter'er (?) and I haven't "myspaced" in about a year, so I'm trying to limit those things as well.

Maybe I'm just being paranoid and thinking everyone's a creeper, but better safe than sorry I always say! 

So what's your take on these Social networking sites?  I think it can be awesome and scary all at the same time.  Thoughts??

The one with the Chicken Noodle Soup

The other day, I made homemade chicken noodle soup for dinner.  This is how the conversation went once Hubby was able to eat it.

Hubby:  You made homemade chicken noodle soup?
Me:  Yes....
Hubby:  It probably has lots of vegetables in it, doesn't it?
Me:  Actually, no... I didn't have any and I normally don't put a lot in there anyway.
Hubby:  Yes you do, you always do.
Me:  O whatever, just eat your soup.
Hubby:  (As he makes himself a bowl and sits down): No veggies! This is like a dream come true! I've always wanted chicken noodle soup without vegetables. And Campbell's doesn't count.
Me:  Wow, apparently you're easy to please.

Addictions

Hi.  My name is Kayla and I'm an addict....

I can't lie, I'm in a love/hate relationship. 

There's this guy, he's my source of all information.

I go to him with happy questions, sad questions, information about what water bottles are good, what food is the best to eat, why this happens or this doesn't...

He's my go to man.

I am in love with him.  Until I get obsessed with him and then I hate him again.

Do you know who this man in my life is?  It's not my wonderful hubby, no.... Sorry babe.

It's GOOGLE.  Yes, I've decided google is a man, why not?  I trust him with all sorts of things and sometimes he lets me down.  (Again, not you hubby). 

Do any of you overuse this source of knowledge, good or bad?  I am a Google freak, I am obsessed and I can't stop.  If someone has a question or says something that I think is false, I look it up on Google. 

I am addicted to Google.  I am not ashamed to admit it and there is no help for me.

Are you as crazy as I am?  Do you Google everything, to death?  What did we do before the days of Google and the internet?

A week...

Yes, It's been a whole week since my last post.  I have to apologize, but school has gotten in the way among other things.  That's ok, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel and before we know it, summer will be here!  I may pop in and out, but have no fear... I will return!  Also, I'm still reading your blogs and staying up to date on your lives, but I haven't been able to comment as much.  I'll try to get better, I swear!  Hope you are all having a fabulous week, until next time!
