Time to give thanks...

So far I have made, chocolate chip pecan pie, pecan pie, sweet potato souffle, stuffing, and dinner for the family, leftovers! A gal I worked with suggested that I need to drink a glass of wine to relax while I attempt these feats, and much to my surprise, it did indeed take the edge off. Thanks KATHY! Now I am on glass numero 3 as I blog..
Blessings to all, be safe, be healthy, and most importantly be HAPPY!
Oh a note to my SWAP partners; packages are being sent out Friday!! Preppy your tumbler is on its way as well. NYC looked like so much fun!

Fondly, Beth

Is it just me or...

Do I look like Paula Deen and my husband like her son Jamie? I mean DANG! And who told me this shade of lip color looked good on me? They Lied! And what about that loverly CHIN ROLL!

I think I need a muted taupe or light pink instead of this whorish red. Anr to think I thought I looked good! LOL! We had fun as always...

It's Official...

My Little girl is growing up and I don't like it one bit.. I am sad in fact. She came to me yesterday and said " Mommy, I think I have a loose tooth"! I immediately thought she was telling me a little fib, because she wants to be like her sisters, but sure enough upon further review, she does INDEED have a loose tooth. I called my husband and said look her tooth is loose and started bawling, WTH! I didn't react like this when the other 2 girls lost their teeth, why now? Because she is it, the end, my last baby and I was sad. I scooped her up, kissed her face and was so excited for her and yet so sad for me..

Signed,

Beth

How bout them GAMECOCKS!!!

Hubby and I had fun! I did NOT get drunk, I was on my ladylike behavior, because I am going to the Doctor tomorrow and I don't need my Liver Enzymes coming into question! LOL!
I went to take a nap at 6:30pm, woke up at 9:00pm and fell back asleep at 10:00pm, woke up at 8:00am. WTH! A night away from the kiddies and I choose to sleep.. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Oh well, as my late mother Gertie would have said "you must have needed the sleep"! I did! I feel great, so I am rewarding myself with lunch with my BFF and some new Tennis wear for our Clubs annual tournament which I am participating in for the first time!! Wish me luck..

Stylist needed at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue ASAP!!

What in the hell was Michelle Obama wearing? The girls looked cute, but Michelle: Beyonce and the House of Derion need to scratched off the list. I mean, dang, she is tall, thin, do I hear DIOR, YSL, Lauren, shit even Ann Taylor...

On another note, I thought Obama's speech was beautifully said and John McCain could not have been more of a gentlemen, a true patriot!! Let's us move forward, pray for a healthy, peaceful and prosperous nation and for the love of Pete a STYLIST for our new First Lady!

God Bless America,
Beth

May the BEST MAN win!!

I hope it truly is the BEST man. Good or bad we are about to see history made. I, as most of you know, live in SC, and I am sure, most of you know, we are a very CONSERVATIVE state, however, after looking at the ABSENTEE line for weeks now, I don't think it will happen this year.. I honestly hope whomever wins this most important race in a time where our Country is suffering, both Morally and Fiscally, we the people, will conduct ourselves like ladies and gentlemen and not go crazy, because quite frankly, I think we may have some riots... Am I crazy for thinking this? Let me know what y'all think.

Seriously speaking,
Beth

A Pumpkin, A Devil and A Rat!

They had a great night. Is it me or does the DEVIL look like A PLAYBOY BUNNY!

Gamecocks VS. Vols! Go Gamecocks!! You just never know with this team, and poor Tennessee they have seen better days, but they will get it together. I know I am a HUGE Gamecock fan but I truly hope DABO and CLEMSON pull out a stunning win against Boston College day! Good Gosh, I want everyone to be happy I am starting to sound like a Democrat!! Just kidding people... I don't want to step on any toes, damn there I go again!! May the best team win!!
