Tidbits from Grayce

Well my mother took me to my very 1st Estate Sale yesterday for my lunch break. I didn't know what to expect....well ok, I won't lie...I expected moth balls, walkers, and a bunch of teapots. LOL. WELL, little did I know that I would find the starting piece for my new"closet". I am turning my back spare room into a closet/ dressing room. I wanted a couch for the room too. I didn't know what kind, color, ANYTHING.... But when I walked into the Estate Sale yesterday, I saw the couch I wasn't really looking for....ugliest thing you have ever seen...but to me, it was perfection in a bright floral tacky form that I thought was absolutely perfect and beautiful. We can call it love at first sight. Usually this happens in Anthropologie at least 4-5 times a week....and usually the items are no less than $128 each. So needless to say, I don't purchase them. Instead, I am forced to have the love of my life ripped from my very hands, given back to the employee, and the police escort me out, call Ronnie, and he comes to get me (totally kidding). ANYWAYS....THIS love at first sight piece was a whopping $50. Can you believe it?!?!?!?!?! $50...that is 2 tans in the stand up bed and one tube of MAC Mascara. That my friend is RIDONKULOUS! I have never been attracted to anything that cheap in such a perfect form! Needless to say, I flung myself, in my 6 inch high heels and high waisted bell bottom Seven jeans, on that couch while making it rain $50 to the lady at the door and that couch was MINE! Feast your eyes on the blue, green, turquoise floral couch of your very dreams!!!!!!
Oh, one more thing.....a couch of this stature, I knew would be at LEAST $3,000 at Anthropologie....well dear followers of mine...I was right again.
WHO'S THE SUCKER NOW ANTHROPOLOGIE!!!!!!!!!! TAKE THAT!

I am pretty sure my whole day is shot.....I had candy and tortilla chips for breakfast.....I should just give up now and go get a cupcake.....

You heard the woman...I am a way of LIFE! lol

Why hello there....where have you been all my life?.....I love you....you and all your purpley silky highwaisted goodness....

Oh my goodness....I just died laughing....

I honored my mother today by eating 2 cupcakes she made! I honored my father by letting him pay for lunch! LOL

Please pray for my Zoey. She is having a hard time eating. She woke me up this morning at 5am to take her outside. She was throwing up. Her don't feel so hot today.

I have been having a hard time getting her to eat for the last month or so. She is suppose to be eating the exact same thing twice a day so that we can regulate her diabetes. Well she stopped eating the food that she has been eating for about a year or so now. I had to switch to another food. Well now she is starting to refuse that food too. I can't keep switching her food up. It is making her diabetes go out of control and that is not good. My fingers are crossed that everything will be fine and she will start eating normally again.

Little Zo will be 10 years old on 11/15/11. Her is my old grandma doggie! Most faithful and loving doggie anyone could ever have. I use to be scared of dogs and not like them at all. Zoey was my very first doggie. She opened my heart up to dogs and made me fall in love. She will always be my first love though. :)

Guess which one is my pumpkin that i decorated.....

Trick or Treat!!!!

Give it up Jessica.....the cat is out of the bag, the bird has flown the coop, the eagle has landed, the turkey has been bastered, the butter has melted, the buns have risen, the egg has cracked, the bear has stolen the honey, Elvis has left the building, the heel has broken off the shoe, the candle has been burned out, the balloon has popped, the flower has wilted, the grass is brown, the cereal is mushy, the milk is lukewarm, the yogurt has expired, the ice cream has melted, the clown's nose has fallen off, the glass has been shattered, the cupcake has been eaten, the toast has been dropped butter side down, Santa has been sold into slavery, Lady Gaga has worn blue jeans and a t-shirt, Beyonce is wearing flats, and Jesus has risen......FOR THE LOVE....Just admit it......you are not bloated.....THAT is a baby bump. A LARGE baby bump.....black doesn't slim everything....the end.

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG.... my friend Stephanie...I mean BETHANY is moving to DALLASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!! She is coming back to the mother land from DC in mid December.....I can't even concentrate I am so excited! If my hands didn't hurt I would do cartwheels down the hallway and all the way out to my car and then all the way back to my parents house and then all the way home to Dallas and everyday until she finally gets here! EVEN BETTER NEWS: they want to move to the same area that we live in now in Dallas, Preston Hollow, cuz it is close to DFW and Love Field (her husband is a pilot). I mean, there is no news that could make me happier than I am right now....well, unless someone told me that I could shop at Anthropologie free for the rest of my life....LOL

WELCOME HOME STEPHANIE.....I MEAN BETHANY!!!!!! IT'S ABOUT TIME! We can now start planning our lives together! LOL Same church, same gym, same grocery stores, same pinkberry, same neighborhood, same clothes, same EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!! We never have to be apart again!!!!!!!!!!!LOL

There are reasons why people are not allowed to get tattoos while under the influence....

I want this done and I want it done NOW! :)

I just want to share this photo with a certain husband who messes up rims MORE than I do. I am willing to bet that my scratches on my current rims DO NOT compare to the life long physical damage that was done to my hummer a few years back (see photo below) and the permanent emotional damage it caused me with seeing it in such disarray......hi Runny!

It's almost time to watch Elf 4,569 times in a row during the holidays!!!! Yesssss!!!!

Thinking of my friend Stephanie....I mean Bethany this evening. I sure do miss her! No one has retarded fun like we do. Come see me soon! Xoxoxo

OMG.....

Ok, another home run for Chelsea Handler....thank you for making me laugh so hard that I almost pee my pants, that I have people staring at me in public because I am trying to stop snorting and laughing so loud, and that my husband thinks that FOR SURE there is something wrong with me and my ability to amuse myself so easily.

P.S. No mother, u don't need to read this book either.....please don't. U will never look at my the same again. Lol

Reason number 1,357 as to why I need green skinny jeans.....

Well, as you probably know, we follow Moto GP religiously. My favorite rider, Marco Simoncelli, was killed in the 2nd lap of the race today in Malaysia. He was 24 years young. His helmet came off in the crash. He died from head, neck, and chest injuries. The video footage of the wreck is sickening. I couldn't imagine being his family and girlfriend which witnessed the crash, much less Edwards and Rossi which ended up running over him. Simoncelli lost control of his bike and steered in front of Edwards and Rossi. They didn't even have time to try to get out of his way. It all happened so quickly. I can't get those images out of my head. You can google Marco Simoncelli fatal crash video to view it. Makes you think about how quickly life can change in the blink of an eye and it is completely out of our control.

RIP Marco Simoncelli

Headed to Washington DC tomorrow! Ronnie and I are in Summersville, WV for one of his sand jobs for work....it is 5 hrs to DC from here....we figured that we will probably never come back here so we should go see DC! That means I get to see my long lost fren Stephanie...I mean Bethany cuz her lives there! I hope we get to see everything and that the weather is nice.....rain rain go away (if you are planning on being there).

It would only be about 2 hrs to DC...but there is some forest or something that no streets/highways/roads go through....so we have to make a HUGE circle all the way around it. LOL. Oh man....we will have a 21 hrs drive home....shoot me. LOL

Ok, gotta go look up the Travel Channel and the Man vs. Food show to see what places to eat that we have to stop at and try!

Did I mention that I have called every AT&T around here....and they don't have any new iPhones either.....this is ridiculous. I was just SURE that no one up here cares about a new phone...then again,there is NOTHING to do here....so maybe a new phone is like the best thing ever for them LOL.

Well, I looked on my calendar today to see what I probably wasn't going to get done (LOL), and the only thing listed is "3 months til wedding". I cannot believe that in 3 months, I will be getting ready with my new sister who will walk down the aisle to marry my little brother. It is the strangest thing in the world to realize that your little brother (who really isn't that little anymore) is getting married. It completely confirms that I am getting old. LOL. That also means that these pictures I am gonna be in are forever pictures. I need to get in the heathy bandwagon and firm up a bit. Lol. Hmmmm I wonder what's for lunch today.....I hope there is dessert...

My my JLo.....what a flattering monkey pose u have going on here.

*it is really hard to try to defend the theory that man did not evolve from a monkey when we have photos like these.

Here is a pic of me and my new sisters at the Mad Hatter Tea Party yesterday! Christa is in the middle (Jeff's fiancé) and her sister Brettany to the right!

Bella who?......

Christmas present idea.....yesssssssss

Yep.....u heard me right! Lol

Just an assumption....but when u get an apple pie from McDonalds, and it says "10:00" on the side, that means it probably isn't the freshest.....

Well, now I know why Lady GaGa wears a ton of makeup all the time......

My mom had to make the hard decision today to put Jacob to sleep. He was really old and his little body was giving out completely.

He was a very good kitty for many many many years. He was our oldest kitty that we had. RIP Jacob. U r loved and will be missed.

My mom said that dad got up early this morning with Jacob and let him run around outside for a bit, fed him all the turkey baby food he could eat, and then snuggled and loved on him. His last hours were full of love. Good old Jacob....

Ok, I have a couple of "tidbits" today to share.......

1) today is the assembly of the invitations day. I have everything cut, measured, and ready to go! All I have to do it assemble, put in envelopes (that I had to HAND MAKE by the way...), put an address label on, stamp, and mail! I am gonna take pics tonight of each one and post. They all have the same front invitation, but all the paper behind it is different. Ugh, sometimes my ideas are wonderful and ridiculous all in the same thought.....

2) If you ever think that you want to possibly hand stitch invitations or even part of them, it is a bad idea. It is not worth it. There is always another way.....even if it is paying someone else to do it......

3)
4) I am getting sick....I have a sore throat and I feel like ca-ca. My throat is all red and feels swollen. I wanna go home and sleep....but even if I went home.....I have too much to do already....invitations, try on 5 million dresses for this wedding that I have purchased on my parents credit card (yesssssssssss and thanks...promise to return all but one...or 2 for backup), clean house, give the dogs a bath, wash bedding,wash dog bedding,...see.....no time for sleep.....

5) I have been eating like a fat kid. I would like to take this time to blame it on my dad. Mom is gone and dad has this eating affect on me.....makes me think that I am hungry and I feel obligated to eat everything on my plate otherwise he gives me this look like I am wasteful....eventhough I am gonna get it TO GO and eat it for lunch the next day.....gosh dad....all your fault.

6) my body still aches....my hands, back, and legs especially....ridiculous.....so I still can't work out or even do lunges....I always do lunges.....and I have not been able to do lunges in almost 2 months now.....ugh.....or crunches or plank....ridiculous.....I need a cookie....see #5 for explanation.....

7) Baxter needs a haircut.....but somehow I feel ridiculous paying the same amount for his hair cut as I do for my hair cut AND color.....he is a dog for crying out loud! lol

8) Last but not least, a pic that my long lost "fren" Stephanie...I mean BETHANY sent me today that reminded her of me.....
We use to do yoga together 3 days a week downtown. Let's just say that there was NO concentration going on there for us....and probably everyone else....we can't help how stinking funny we are....it just comes naturally and we don't have to work for it....so I am pretty sure that Jesus wants us to share our gifts with everyone that HE has given us....so we did....and then we would get told to be quiet....and we would try.....but inside.....we were laughing til peeing occurred........miss you Bethany!

9) ONE MORE!.....anyone seen my husband.....he's about yeah high, drives a white truck with a license plate that says RUNNY, probably wearing a hat, needs a haircut......if found, please return to previous owner......lol JK Runny....I want my new purse.....love you!

Yea for Missoni for Target kitchen and dining!!!!!!!!!

Fat kids have more than 1 candy bar in their purse.......therefore I am a fat kid.

Fat kids also ear candy bars for breakfast.....I am still a fat kid.

Fat kids have "get more candy bars" on their list of things to do.....I really am a fat kid.
