It’s an ugly day in paradise… and other things!

Outside my window..it is overcast, humid, and just plain yucky warm.  Welcome to Texas Spring.

Today I feel..good.  Still having a hard time with losing my Grandpa, but doing better on that score.

I am thankful..for my two little bundles of joy that make me laugh, and fill my evenings with joy.

Tomorrow I am going..to work, probably have to go grocery shopping too.

I am wearing..capris and a skimpy tank under a cotton button down shirt {open, of course}.

I wish..for my Grandpa back.

This weekend..I am working at a Horse Show at the Travis County Expo Center for one of my favorite people.  It is always a good time, with a generous dose of chaos thrown in, LOL!

I am reading..A Heart Most Worthy, by Siri Mitchell

I am working on..figuring out how to polish off my blog design so I am ‘happy’ with it, and will stop fiddling with it.

Yesterday I..worked, did chores, slept till my alarm clock went off, rather than getting up with Mr. SD {or getting up with Ms. T when she decides to get up with Mr. SD, however you want to look at it}.

I am hoping..to be able to do more horse grooming.  We are working on paying of Ms. T’s medical bills from a c-section delivery, and I earn extra income doing mane pulling and clipping.

I am hearing..fun music on Pandora.

I bet you didn't know..that I have stayed true to my No Fabric in April Pledge.  It’s been hard, but… it kinda goes along with the hoping comment above.  If I don’t spend money on fabric I have more to put towards the bills.

One of my [least] favorite..things to do right now is drink water.  I am using the Crystal Light packages to flavor my drinks.  My other least favorites is changing Ms. Diva’s diapers.

One of my [most] favorite..my baby girl!  Nothing smells better than a little, tiny bundle of joy.  It will be over way to soon, and then I will have two toddlers to try and keep up with.

What are you up to?  Join in the fun over at Murdock’s Momma.

    It is super gross out! I just wish it would rain already and quit being ugly!
    April is almost over and that means more fabric buying :)

    I love the look of your blog. I am sorry about your grandpa. Mine has been gone for ten years and I still miss him.
    You are one busy girl. I never been around horses, but I think they are gorgeous animals.

Add a ‘click-able’ signature to comments you make.

While blog hopping recently, I came across this fantastic tip listed on Be Our Best .  Jill has compiled her Top 10 Blogging Tips in one place to help others out there in blogland.  Most of them I had heard of before.  But she had one on her list that I have only seen a couple times in practice, and have not heard a how-to do it before. Number 6: Add a clickable signature to your comments. If you add the following text to the bottom of the comments you leave for other bloggers, whatever text you insert for “Your Text Here” will be clickable.  You have to switch out “{“ and “}” with “<” and “>” then it will work.  Remember to also change the “Your Blog Address” part, LOL! {a href=http://www.YourBlogAddress.com/ }YOUR TEXT HERE {/a} Bonus Tip ~ I use Notepad to store all the html codes I use on a regular basis {the direct link code for my signature image, color codes, etc.}.  I added the above code to my Notepad page, edited it with my informat...
