Random Thoughts From this Weekend...

Well we've had a great holiday weekend. We all had four fabulous days off. Strange, this is the first day that we actually got anything accomplished! Here's our brief summary and some thoughts:

Fri: slept till 10 am. Missed Black Friday, pity.

Sat: Got up, made coffee run and then realized that Penney's still had sale going, sweet. Hit Penney's for some clothes for girlies. I rock. Managed to hide them upstairs without Princess catching me this time.

Sat: Realized that we've yet to give notice. Opps. Base housing hates that. So off I go to give notice at 1100. Great, The Man being the active duty guy has to do the paperwork. Problem Houston, The Man is camped out watching BEDLAM.


Sidenote: If you are not from OK and do NOT follow college ball, OU verses OSU every single year. It is the biggest game in the state and The Man does not move from tv for hours. Hence the above picture, the girls were all over him but being the great dad he is, he just moved to the floor to give them room. WHILE NOT MISSING ONE FRAME OF THAT GAME!

Dutchess spent all of Saturday dressed as Tinkerbell but insisting that she was an otter. Okaaaaaaay. This is only enhanced by catching her "hanging out" in the potty doing her thing while reading the toy circular from a local store. That was priceless but couldn't find the camera so you are spared that sight. You can thank me now.

Sun: Well Princess and I are the only ones up. We're cooking red beans and rice! Yum. Still attempting to get top off of stove so can clean. Really got to start getting this house ready for turnover. Stove is stubborn. Have WD40 ready to go, but need top off stove. YES, WD40 is the best, cleanest way to clean your stove top, HOWEVER please take top off stove and put in backyard before applying it, otherwise you may blow your house up. Friendly tip there. Opps, banged on stove too much, The Man has awoke, dang, I hate when that happens. :)
