Well, I haven't been around much to post...miss me? I had a busy busy weekend.

Foto Friday didn't happen because to be honest with ya...I forgot about it! HaHaHaHa! Typical. But, I promise it will be started back this Friday.

Today is Halloween so I have my candy ready for all the little kiddies to come and take. Last year we ran out pretty early into the night and felt bad about it. So, this year we are prepared!!

I can't wait for Halloween to be over..time for Christmas! For the last 2 years I have put our Christmas Tree up Nov.1st LOL I'm not a big fan of Halloween and Thanksgiving doesn't mean that much anymore..but Christmas ROCKS! I have the decorations...the music....the cool weather! This year, Mr. TSB said we have to wait a little bit before we put the tree and stuff...party pooper!

So, anyway, Happy Halloween and Boo To Ya!

It's 12:30..so I am officially 29 now. We went out to eat tonight to kick off my birthday weekend. In-laws, parents, and John enjoyed Outback...John threatened to tell the Outbackers that it was my birthday so they could sing to me ( I do hate when they do that) and I threatened divorce if he did...guess who won?

I will be posting pictures for Foto Friday..and since I only got 2...count 'em...2 responses I will take both pics and post them. I will post them sometime later, I need to go to bed because we are hitting Best Buy in the morning for a satellite radio! Yippeee!! Man, I hope they install it...or I am screwed!

Today I received a pumpkin cheesecake! 3 words can describe it....DE. LISH. US. If you have never tried it...get up and go right now and buy one! Go! Go! Whatcha waiting on?? I said go right now!

Okay, I received a few e-mails wanting the recipe of the Autumn Savory Soup...here it is-

2lbs lean ground beef
3 medium chopped onions
1 minced garlic clove
3 cans (10.5oz) condensed beef broth
1 can (28oz.) diced tomatoes, undrained
3 cups of water
1 cup diced carrots
1 cup diced celery
1 cup frozen green beans
1 cup cubed red potatoes
2 tsp. parsley flakes
1 tsp. dried basil
.5 tsp. dried thyme

Brown the beef, onion and garlic. Put everything into the crockpot. Cover and cook on high for 6 hours.

I make a lot of soups and this recipe is by far the best I have. I hope ya'll try it and enjoy it :)

Well, it's time for me to get to bed..keep checking back for pictures later! Nighty Night!

I figured in today's post I will list a few things going on in my life that isn't so great...

• My Mom. She is a wonderful woman. My Best Friend, always has been. Now, don't get me wrong, I am equally as close to my dad. Anyway, a little over a year ago, my mom had to have back surgery because she had a ruptured disk and it was pinching a nerve. Ok, we were told by a neurosurgeon that this is a common surgery and she will be fine. The neurosurgeon was well known in the area and was told by many people "he's the best around", so how could my mom say no to that???? So to make the long story short, she had the surgery and was in worse pain than before! She went back to the surgeon for a follow-up and he said it will relieve itself and released her. Then he quit the practice. Well, then everyone starting wondering why would he quit all of a sudden? Retirement? nah too young for that! Was making too much money? I don't see that would be a reason. The reason: he received ANOTHER lawsuit. Why? Because the bastard is blind in one eye and color blind in the other!!! HE. DID. SURGERY. LIKE. THAT. ON. MY. MOMS. SPINE! Nobody knew about this..At all! So, finally mom went to another neurosurgeon a year later, because they won't touch you for at least a year. She has been through a lot this past year, pain medications, pain patches, pain management shots, nothing has worked and she is now in a wheelchair. It hurts so bad to see her in so much pain...And there's nothing I can do about it. Nothing. This morning she is having another "procedure" to see what they can do about the pain..Hopefully they can figure something out.

• After the last miscarriage I was told I need to go on insulin shots before I can try again. I thought to myself, no problem....If this will help me conceive and carry it, I'm willing to try it. Well, after 3 weeks, my glucose levels haven't changed much. I'm seeing the Dr. every freakin' week to try and get the right amount to keep it where it needs to be. Oh, and on a side note, I have GAINED 11lbs. since being on the insulin. Great, huh?

• My mother-in-law has cancer. She refuses to tell anyone what the Dr. says. All I do is sit and wonder what's going on with her. Hopefully one day she will tell us.

So, with that being said...Right now we're....Universe=3 Mrs.TSB=0. Hopefully the rest of the day will be brighter.

I've had a few request to start doing Foto Fridays again. I did this a long time ago on my very first blog. On Foto Fridays I take a picture of something you want to see.

Things I have taken pictures of in the past:
1- Inside my purse
2- Favorite Shoes
3- Favorite Place to go in town
4- My closet

Now, all you have to do is tell me what you want me to take a picture of...leave it in the comment box. On Friday I will pick one and upload the picture. Now, to all the pervs and asshats...I will not take naked pictures..don't go there!

Okay, people, let it be known..I begged for cooler weather all summer! F.I.N.A.L.L.Y. the weather gods granted my request! Ahhh, fall.

Yesterday, I decided to open up the windows to let the cool air in. I put the dogs shirts on, because lord knows my dogs are not "outside" dogs, so they don't deal with the weather changes. At one time, I swear I heard my dogs whispering about how they can get me out of the house, so they can figure out a way to close the damn windows already!

Yesterday, we decided to decorate our front porch, which we do every year, but this year has been bad and I told Mr. TSB that we're not gonna decorate this year. No Halloween, No Thanksgiving, No Christmas! After laughing at him because I thought he was going to cry...I decided to decorate.



Time to go frolic in the leaves...

In the beginning, there was heaven and earth.

And a Starbucks, a McDonalds, and Krispy Kreme on every corner.
And some other stuff that I don't really remember from Sunday School.

A bunch of stuff happened, God rested and before you knew it, it was October 24,2005.

A new blog was born and the angels sang.

Glory to Blog in the highest! And a piece to all the men on earth (or something).
