oh well

i wanted to have a point to this post. but i am afraid it'll just be me rambling, again. maybe i'll end up talking about something that matters but don't count on it.

i love having a pixie cut but sometimes i miss being able to do my hair in different ways. typing that makes me laugh b/c i really don't have hair skills. so my different ways would include: down & ponytail. i guess i just miss it when i see cut hair styles. i'll just keep the pixie.

gabe can wave now. its so darn cute. the kid has a lot of spunk. laughing is one of his favorite things. he laughs at everything. he's also really into clapping these days. i was singing old mcdonald to him this morning and he clapped the entire time. too cute. its certainly the only applause i'll ever get for singing.

last night while he was eating jay and i were "biting" his toes. he thought that was hilarious. his feet are big, huge chunks.

i am absolutely diggin this fall weather.

i say it every year but it's true. i am a better christian in the fall. seriously, i am in a better mood! it is perfect running weather. i love wearing shorts & a long sleeved tshirt or jacket. i like cool mornings & evenings and warmer afternoons.

i thank God often for cooler weather. notice i say cooler...not cold. homegirl does not like to be cold.

i wonder if i get on Gods nerves sometimes. i probably do. i am a bit of a brat.

there are so many reasons why i love the Lord and why i think you should to! here are some:

-he always knows what's best and i can trust that. (not that i always do...)
-his mercy is new every morning. (oh my how thankful i am!)
-he speaks to us
-he cares about us
-we can trust him with our hearts, desires, fears, etc.
-he is patient
-he knows my name. i hope i never get over that.
-he does miracles
-he gives peace, comfort and strength when we need it
-he forgives

i could add to this list all day. these are just the things i've been thinking about today.

i am very weird when it comes to paper towels. i don't like to waste them. i think i have issues. if jay pulls of like 3 to clean something up it stresses me out. i need to let that go.

bad mom confession: i forgot i put Tabasco sauce in the vegetable soup the other night and jay fed it to gabe. then outta nowhere gabe started crying. oops, then i remembered. he got over it quickly but i felt horrible. don't tell defacs. (sp?)

i love pinterest. i just wish i was crafty. i see things on there all the time that i wish i had in my house. but i am too lazy to even attempt at making such things.

so i just repin them and wish. i cannot get on pinterest if i am hungry. oh my.

i really like to finish tasks. i think the hardest part of my job is that i rarely just get to check things off a list. except during retreat time. then i'm overwhelmed with lists.

i hit myself in the shin with a sledgehammer last week. yes, yes i did. it was totally my fault. the bruise is unattractive.

i heard on the radio that cracker barrel has sweet potatoes now. about time, right? seems strange that they are just now getting on that goodness!

when it gets cool outside jay warms up my side of the bed so i don't have to feel cold sheets. he's the best.

our bedroom door is crazy. if it is shut and you hit this once spot on the floor walking by it will open. freaks me out every time. jay made me laugh & said it made him feel fat. hahaha. it does it no matter which one of us walks by so weight must not be the issue. i hate it though. it is loud. especially when i (inevitably) am going to the bathroom in the middle of the night.

speaking of that, we have a new neighbor and he leaves is porch light on all night. it shines through our side door window and it is BRIGHT. it is ridiculous. it's like daytime in our hallway. sucks at night. i need a DARK room.

this same neighbor also has a big white dog that walks around on the roof. creepy. i'd tell you what kind of dog it is if i knew. i don't know anything about dogs. i know wiener dogs and labs. that's all.

i hate putting gas in my car.

i keep forgetting to ask the uncommon athlete guys what detergent they use. but no joke, their towels are the best smelling pieces of laundry ever. i have got to know.

i love reading peoples blogs. send me some that you read.

we saw argo on monday. great movie. language is rough but what a cool story. we were nervous. if we knew more about history we would've known the outcome. i thoroughly enjoyed it.

i wish there more "girl movies" out. jay said there aren't any b/c there's no more ways to tell the same story. haha. kinda true i guess. it doesn't have to be a love story. i just like movies with a story. not just fights/blowing things up/super heroes. i could never see another super hero movie and be fine with it.

i paid $4.50 for a diet coke. i can't believe i did that. i asked for a small and when she told me the price i almost asked if she could take it back. that is robbery. please, someone explain to me why a drink should cost that much. i'd LOVE to know.

no wonder you hear all kinds of bottles/cans opening after the (10 thousand) previews.

i think 3D movies are annoying.

jay got a wheelie (sp?) one time in the parking lot in front of barnes & noble so we got kicked out of the cols park crossing parking lot. we had to park at winn dixie and walk to the movies. it was hilarious.

i love all the people in my life. i don't take them for granted and i love the time i get to spend with each of them. but i could ALWAYS hang out with jay and never get tired of it. i really love being with him. he is so much fun. he makes me laugh. we go on a lunch date every week. (b/c nighttime dates mean either a babysitter or taking gabe.) and every week i get all giddy about our date. i really like that God allowed me to be jays wife. what a fabulous gift.

we tried to go through the goo-goo car wash off of veterans pkwy last week and they made us turn around b/c jays truck was too wide. embarrassing/funny! we'd already paid. can you imagine the scene we caused?

i don't know why goo-goo makes their guys wear ties. they look silly.

almost as silly as i look running in knee high compression socks. but i do not care. those things rock.

random thoughts for my closing:
-goldfish & cheezits are just plain good.
-honey crisp apples are wonderful but stupid expensive.
-i always wanted a first name for a last name. and i got it when i married jay.
-i have to spell my first and last name for people. that gets old.
-i don't understand why seating hostesses ask me how to spell kaci or lesley if i give them my name. why does that matter?
-i love to color.
-my favorite afternoon snack is an orange.

yeet.
