'10 Things to Do When It's Too Hot to Go Outside'
This is a very appropriate title since our temperatures have reached 105 the last few days and it appears they will stay there the rest of the week. I love living in Texas, but when the temps get this high I really start to miss living up north.
1. One of our favorite things to do rent movies and have a movie day. We pop popcorn and watch movie after movie. This past weekend we watched a favorite of mine Phenomenon with John Travolta.
2. Go to the movies at the mall. We went to see The Dark Knight and it was awesome!
3. Spend some time at the mall. I went twice this week and it was so nice to be in somewhere cool and be around people. I am a people watcher!
4. Last night we went to dinner and had a wonderful frozen margarita, now that sure helps you cool off. Well until the tequila kicks in and starts making you sweat - right mom?
5. We have a swimming pool and it does help with the heat, but right now it is almost too hot for even that.
6. This is the time of the year I usually will do my "spring" cleaning. Since spring is so short in Texas I usually wait to do my deep cleaning until it is too hot to go outside.
7. I haven't done this one this year, but over the last few years we would make homemade ice cream.
Okay, I thought this one would be easy, but I I only came up with 7. So I will be visiting other bloggers to find out what else we can do!
Happy Tuesday!

Friday Fill-Ins #82
1. I believe whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger.
2. If you're good at something,keep practicing then you will be great.
.3. Why so much to do and such little time?
4. Something is out there, it's my dogs and they are barking again.
5. If my life were a sitcom, it would be titled Print Me Some Time.
6. Sitting on my back porch [if you don't have one, use your imagination] I see my plants, pool and my neighbors that overlook my yard.
7. And as for the weekend, tonight I’m looking forward to maybe going to dinner with my honey, tomorrow my plans include getting the house clean and Sunday, I want to have a do nothing kind of day!

Ten on Tuesday-10 Least Favorite Celebrities
This one was tougher than choosing my favorites, but here it goes:
1. First on my list is Brittany Spears. I truly hope she gets her life back on track, but I am so tired o hearing about her screw ups.
2. On the same not, Lindsay Lohan.
3. Paris Hilton-clueless and her voice sends shivers down my spine.
4. Paula Abdul-who is able to make the money she does and show up stoned?
5. Jessica Simpson-hey I am a Cowboy's fan, enough said. LOL
6. Donald Trump-with all that money can't he get a better hairpiece?
7. Rosie O'Donnell-I know some really like her, but I think she wears everything on her shoulders and she get so annoying.
8. Tom Cruise-I love him in Top Gun, but over past several years I think he has just went overboard.
9. Hillary Clinton- Sorry just do not see what she had to offer our country. Yes we can! does not protect our citizens. Just my opinion.
10. Pam Anderson-get a clue!
Happy Tuesday everyone!

10 Memorable Vacation Moments
3. We were visiting family in Tennessee and I love horses. My cousin and sister took me out to some land where my cousin had some horses. I wanted to ride one so badly but they had no bridle. Well the "older" girls decided I could ride with an elastic belt that came off one of their shorts and use that as reins. Needless to say that didn't go well and I almost wound up in the pond at the bottom of the hill! (I see a pattern here do you?)
4. On another trip, I believe it was to Tennessee again, big sis and I were going to ride a pony. The saddle was not on tight and when sis went to get on the saddle went sideways and she fell off. (I guess that was paybacks :-)
5. Travelling to Texas and my uncle taking us to the beach. I still can feel the sunburn. They showed us how seagulls would swoop down if you offered them any food. One time while we were there, he was fishing and actually caught a shark.
6. For my grandparents 50th wedding anniversay they took their whole family to Puerta Villarta Mexico. There was over 20 of us and they came as far as Chicago. It was so much fun!!
7. Hubby and I (being poor newlyweds) took a road trip to Corpus Christi. We had more fun on that trip and really didn't do anything special, just spent time together. He started a tradition on that trip. Whenever there is sand he makes a huge (usually 6 or 7 feet long) sand shark sculpture.
8. Hubby and I went with friends to Oklahoma for a week. We rented a cabin on the lake. We spent the week water skiing and just had a wonderful week of relaxation.
9. Our trip with my mom and dad. We went to Cozumel, Mexico for a week. It was wonderful and I really think that help with the kids bonding with their grandparents. We keep saying we really need to do that again, and I hope we do soon!
10. Most recently our trips have were built around Nate's baseball of football. He played in a multi state allstar game (in high school) in Oklahoma and it was a great trip. Even with all the baseball games we did take time to visit the OKC Bombing Memorial and took in many wonderful sights.

Totally Random
Well I didn't do my Thursday 13, so I thought I would just list some radom things that have been going on.
Hubby has been sick since July 3rd and it has been tough. It started out as a simple cold and it lead to a sinus infection and ear infections. Today is the first day he has felt human again and was able to come to work. Missy just messaged me and said "Mom, I think I am getting sick". UGGHHHH NOOOO! So I am keeping my fingers crossed that this is not going to be shared throughout the whole family.
We are dog sitting a friends dog this week. She was actually our dog, but due to the fact she was very energetic and Hubby's knee giving out on him and he couldn't walk her, we had to find her a new home. It was hard, but we knew she needed a home where they would be able to take her for walks and she really needed to be the only dog. Needless to say it has been interesting having four (yes I said four) dogs running throughout our house.
Work has been crazy busy. We had two weeks that were really slow, then it appears everyone realized they were slacking off at work and said oh no I need to get my projects done that I put off. I guess that is a good thing, but sure makes the days crazy.
I have been having an awful time going to sleep at night. I have been in bed by 8 and it is still midnight or later before I go to sleep. I don't know if it is stress, too much caffeine (but I need that to stay awake during the day because I am not sleeping) or what. Anyone have some tips? I feel like I need to walk around with toothpicks propping my eyes open during the day and really could use a good 8 hours sleep.
Guess I need to get some things done. Have a great day!!

What A Weekend!
I hope everyone had a great 4th of July weekend. I know I sure did! We started out by going to my sister's for a wonderful cookout. Boy does she know how to throw a party. We had a great time with family and friends. The only thing that was not perfect that day was, Hubby was home sick. He has come down with a nasty summer cold and we are getting him to the doctor this morning.
Saturday I did a bit of recuperating and then started tearing into my house. Missy has decided that she wants the bathroom that she and her brother share to be a little bit more feminine. It was originally done in a Nautical theme. She and I went on a mission and found a really cute black and white polka dot shower curtain. In order to soften it we bought some bright pink towels and all the goodies for the sink area. We did buy Nate a black toothbrush holder so he would not be required to use a pink toothbrush holder.
I still need to find a white rug for just outside the bathtub and get something for the wall in there. Other than that we have it pretty much done. We also cleaned closets out and are seriously thinking of having a garage sale. I am just a little concerned about having one now since the temperatures are hitting the triple digits. I guess if we only do it in the morning it shouldn't be too bad.
I hope everyone has a great week! I know I plan on it.
