I swear this week has been loooooooong. I am so ready to be out of here!
Phillip and I have date night tonight. Neither of us can decide what we want to do, if we want to go solo, or with other couples. LOL We have another date night next week only that one is UBER special. My good friend of several years is the founder of http://www.ThePinShow.com (fashion show). It is quite the big deal. Phillip and I get VIP seating AND I have agreed to wear one of her dresses from her line. :) She owns a DIY studio in the Bishop's Art district in Oak Cliff http://www.themakesite.com and her clothing line is http://www.2enju.com she is also founder of http://www.urbanstreetbazaar.com . She is the hardest worker I know and not surprising she has come so far. So it will be fun to dress fancy and rub shoulders with some of Dallas' elite. lol
Phillip and I finally entered this century and got AT&T fiberoptic cable with all the HD channels, and the majority of the movie channels. We also FINALLY got a DVR! lol Haven't used it yet, but hey it's there. :)
Abby didn't make it into gifted and talented, you have to score 112, she scored 100. The teacher said she was having a hard time focusing......I'm not even going to comment on that. Aaaaaanyway, I've heard G&T can be a pain in the ass anyway, so it matters not to me.
Phillip's dad did come to town, promptly took my car, and went to Killeen. lmao I'm driving a rental until he returns, a Ford fusion...don't be jealous. lol ;)
My best friend Jenny is now 32 weeks preggo....and still stuck in Japan. :*( Hopefully she will be here by Summer, I miss her terribly! I can't wait to meet her hubby and the baby!
I know nothing exciting, figured I'd blog it anyway. Later!

Bla Bla
So I'd love to post some pics of the friggin floor, but for some reason today all my electronics want to work like cow ass!! I managed to upload 2 to facebook, then fuckin Sprint decides to not give me coverage... as usual. I went to upload pics from my camera of Mardi Gras and the floor, it tells me "can't copy". WTF!? I digress....
LOVIN the tile!! It's looks fantastic! We put travertine tile in the kitchen and pantry, laundry room, and both bathrooms. We did a lighter color for the kitchen and used "enhancement sealer" which brings out the darker colors of the tile so it's not too light. We did a darker color for the bathrooms and laundry room. I could see putting tile in the living room and dining room verses hardwood, but I'm going to hold that thought. Home improvement projects are quite a pain in the ass Phillip and I have found. LOL It's so worth it though.
Friday I'm taking the day off to meet the carpet cleaners at the house, then Abby's Valentine's day party at school, I'm the coordinator/helper. Phillip's dad will be arriving from Korea on Sunday. We heard through the grapevine he'll be staying in the states for a month, not sure if it will be with us or not. Out of all of Phillip's family his dad is the one who is respectful and polite to me. I think he's great, but a total flake like my dad. LOL
The update on Abby is.....she brought home a green today!! Yay! Her reward is sometimes sleeping with mommy and daddy, so I won't be sleeping much tonight. She made Phillip and I a candy mix at school, and she informed me she accidentally ate all the "titsy" rolls. :) She is having her usual asthma flare up this time of year, so we're doing the oh so fun breathing treatments every couple of hours.
I shall try to post pictures on a day when my electronic devices will cooperate.
Toodles!

Tile time
Phillip and I are going to pick up the tile today for the kitchen and the bathrooms. It's to be installed tomorrow!! Yay!! I'm very pleased. :) Then I'm going to go get the new bathroom stuff, I've already picked exactly what I want.
2 more days until a 3 day weekend with some drinking and some bead catching! Work has been sloooow. So I have time to blog boring updates. ;) I will post pics later.
Ciao
