i miss him...

i'm not sure about american idol this season. i miss simon. i mean i really miss simon.

i know some people felt he was too harsh. personally, i loved his honesty.

i also love these kids. just being kids. on a beach.

i used to be really regimented regarding keeping my white loads, white and my dark loads, dark.

now i'm kind of lazy and mix a whole lot of anything with anything.

maybe it's just an "i'm in my late forties" thing.

back to american idol for just a second. is ryan really that short.

i have learned to be very appreciative lately for the foggy weather we've been having here this week.

it's not snowy or cold. that's my daily mantra.

meet our resident mrs. dove. i thought an introduction was necessary.

i didn't want you to think she was just an ordinary bird. oh, and mr. dove shows up with her.

he's just not quite as photogenic as she is.

for some reason, this building reminds me of italy. i've never been to italy

but in my mind, i think it kind of looks like this. but surrounded by french people.

sometimes i swear, the seagulls are just as fascinated with the gulf as i am.

remember when you were little and would spend hours building a sandcastle. me either.

but as an adult, i truly appreciate the imagination of children who get to play in the sand.

"what. you're surprised that i tore apart the bird feeder you hung in the tree out your back door.

give me a break. i'm a squirrel. that's what i do.

a S.Q.U.I.R.R.E.L. got it.

this is my hubby out there rocking the waves. no it's not.

{made you look}

happy thursday
