Wednesday Bites - The Blue Edition

Hi there and welcome to another edition of Wednesday Bites! It's been awhile, I know. I'm going to try to get my blogging back on a more regular schedule because...something kinda cool happened but I don't want to get too excited about it. More about that below....

One of my new favorite websites is We Covet. They had this laptop bag on there some time back and it was just so dang cute. I really want one. It reminds me of Cookie Monster. C is for cookies, nom nom nom!

Maddy and I went to Kohl's last night to get my dad his Father's Day gift (copper bug zapper lanterns). I also had a 30% coupon so we had to get some new threads, dude. I love this color on her. She realized she was wearing all blue, even down to her (new) undies, so she decided today she was "Bluetiful."

This is where I'll be the first week of August. We're going to Antigua, an island in the Carribean. We're staying here. I cannot frickin' wait. I need a vacation soooo bad. Props to my Sugar for taking me. White sands, blue waters, all the rum I can drink. I'm going to try to learn to snorkel before I go. I'm kinda claustrophobic so I hope that I can get over that.






Le sigh. 54 days....tick, tick, tick.

So, that cool thing I mentioned above? Someone nominated me for this! I probably don't have a shot in hell of winning but if I do, I will be soooo thrilled. I'll go all Sally Field on you and say "You like me! You really like me!" It's an honor to be nominated, truly. If you nominated me and want to 'fess up, please do, so I can mention you in my acceptance speech. If you want to stay anonymous, I respect that, too. But if I win, I won't know who gets the 10 lb box of Ghiradelli chocolates and the Bubba Gump t-shirt.

Enjoy the blue skies we're having today in STL. Hope your skies are blue, too.

Um, does Maddy know you blogged about the color of her undies?

Just discovered your blog and already you're my blogher hero. I'm reading your site very slowly, and am so impressed with your charm and your strength, and your ability to stay present for Maddy who is here.
You've come so far this year, just 54 days to a well deserved vacation!

Just a quick tip that helped me snorkel the first time. I had a hard time when I first put my head into the water, keeping my eyes open while going in...it felt like I was going to breath in ALL the water & drown! Someone told me to keep my eyes closed, put my face in, regulate my breathing, THEN open my eyes. It took me a couple times, but once I got the rhythm, I felt like a pro! HOPE YOU & SUGAR HAVE A FABULOUS VACATION!!!
