People Magazine

Really People??? I really enjoy my subscription - Its my guilty pleasure - I love looking at the pictures and read the magazine cover to cover.....But if 1 more cover is dedicated to either Jon or Kate...I may just have to give you up....

Great Recipes and Stories

Head on over to A Place to Dwell

She just had a great cookbook giveaway (sorry, its over and I didn't win). But she is posting family recipes and stories. Great recipes over there, including a couple from me (I just sent them to her, so it may be a minute).

ENJOY!

DG OTS

The picture above is with the anchor in front of EO. Below is the stain glass window in the stairwell at EO. (Sorry for the confusing pics, but blogger and my MAC are not getting along today.)




This is Nikki - She's my Big Sis and a Great Friend!



I am sure I have mentioned on here that I am a Delta Gamma. Not sure I mentioned that I am still active in serving the Fraternity. I recently became a RCS - regional chapter advisor of sorts - I have 6 schools.

Anyway, during my busy, busy June/July, I made a trip to Columbus, OH for a couple days of training. Very fun time meeting new and seeing old DG friends. Above are some pictures.
Thanks blogger for not letting me move them around.

Forgot to Mention - New MAC

I forgot to tell you all about the wonderful thing my husband bought me this month....

YEP A NEW MAC! (isn't he sweet!?!?)

I have been using it for about 3 weeks now and am still getting used to it. But it is 1000Xs better than the Dell I was using. It may take awhile to get totally used to it though since my work computer is a PC (Dell - its sucks too). I have Office for Mac, so I just need to learn the shortcuts and other things I got used to on the PC.

But I am so happy to be done with my Dell...seriously, it would just shut down on me, or lock up, it was really not very useful. I told the guy at the Apple Store I was going to throw it out the window....he said if I was serious to let him know because he wanted a picture...I'm still thinking about it...it doesn't have much memory, is slow and I am not sure if anyone would find any value in it...so I'm still on the fence on that idea.

If you all have any MAC tips, let me know....hopefully I'll get some pictures on here soon so I can make these posts more interesting - as I promised;)

Playoffs

After a touch and go T2 season, Romi and I made it to playoffs by the skin of our teeth. We won our match last night 7-6, 6-4 - we were up 5-2 and did all we could to just keep playing. I really enjoyed the black beetles that were falling all around me on my serve. But, we made it and will be playing another match. I will try to remain confident, but do not have high hopes...we are kind of in the middle layer of teams at this level...we have a bit to go to get to the upper layer. We figured we would play this level for at least 2 seasons!

Just a shout out to us!! Go Team!

funny story

(weekend recap and pictures coming, but something funny happened on our trip and I knew I had to blog about it)

We were driving up 75 towards Chattanooga. I noticed a long trailer, once we got up to it I noticed it was full of cows, the mooing kind. I made a comment, something like, "that's a lot of cows." Well, about 100 yards up is another trailer apparently full of cows as well. As we approach this trailer, there is a liquid flying from the side. Upon closer review....there was a cow's butt pressed up against one of the holes and it was peeing....yes folks, that stream of liquid coming from the truck was cow urine...disgusting I know, but also kind of funny. James did his best to stay clear, but we definitely got a little chuckle out of it!

We're off

For the birthday celebration!! As promised, pictures to come! Have a great weekend!
