White Pants and Peepers and Stuff

Do you wear white after Easter, Memorial Day or year round? 

I grew up in South Florida.  Where the seasons are summer and summer and then summer again.  So white was always in.  But I think the rule growing up was white shoes on Easter.  I loathe white shoes in any form so this rule does not apply to my adult life.

Up here in the North Pole, I think the rule is roughly Memorial Day.  Which is great because BOTH of my white capri pants fit me this year.  Neither fit last year.  Hello reason to celebrate and wear lots of white!

I think I have finally made peace with some aspects of blogging.  There are lots of people I know who read this blog.  Secretly.  As in they found it on their own accord.  And while I think that is rude as all get out to not mention it, I am letting it go.  Oh, I'd still like them to tell me.  But I am moving on.  Happy reading. 

What I have not yet made peace with are the rude comments.  I am a seriously non-controversial person.  Both in blogville and in real life.  Please go find someone else to pick on.  If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.  Or start your own blog and say negative things over there.

I sort of figured out my commenting issues.  I am only able to comment on blogs who have comment boxes that look like mine.  So with or without the word verification, if they look like mine, I am able to comment.  If you have a wordpress or similar type comment box, I am also able to comment.  BUT if you have the kind of comment box where you have to scroll back down after you leave a comment to type in word verification, I am now unable to comment altogether.  I don't yet know why.  Anyone else having similar issues?

I suddenly have some new readers and a few have sent me cute emails that in part, ask me about my daily routine and how I make time to write at 6AM.  I don't.  I promise you I am fast asleep at that hour.  I will let you in on a non-secret.  I write in advance.  Sometimes I write several posts at a time and schedule them to post later in the week.

I pet a momma goat and her adorable 1 month old baby kids this weekend.  And jumped in a bouncy thing.  Several times.  And loved it.  I need to have a child so I can justify such silliness on a regular basis.

It's finally hot here and I LOVE it.  It feels like summer.  Well-deserved after the winter we just had!

My hair has officially been chopped and brightened.  I feel a million times better.  I don't care if short hair gets criticized.  It just fits my personality better.

I am suddenly loving Lady Gaga.  What can I say, I don't dig trendy.  I had to make sure she was more than just a one hit wonder.

Did everyone see that my Bestie is preggers?  I've never seen anyone work harder on a single goal.  She's such an inspiration to me.  Yay Bestie and your baby that now has eyes!!
