DISCLAIMER:

I love my dog, football college is better than the NFL, coffee, wine, men and lots of swear words!! Opinions are like assholes. Everyone has one. These are mine. If you are going to be mean keep yours to yourself.

PS I LOVE FOOTBALL!!

I am soooo NOT excited about baseball season or basketball season!
I WANT FOOTBALL BACK!
I don't like other sports...
I LOVE FOOTBALL!
I ONLY LOVE FOOTBALL!
I used to watch basketball college and pros way back when but I now the games just bug me.
Baseball instantly puts me to sleep.
I will attend a random baseball game here and there I enjoy the sitting outside, drinking beer, and eating peanuts.... But I rarely watch the game... I just don't care.
I know I should like other sports but if I only watch football then I have ass loads of free time to do other things while these other sports are going on.
I LOVE FOOTBALL!!



Starbucks!

STARBUCKS!

I. LOVE. STARBUCKS!
YUMMY YUMMY STARBUCKS!
It is 830p and I want a freaking coffee.... But I know that will do me no good when I go to bed in a few hours!!
I can't wait to go to sleep so I can get up and go to Starbucks!!
Yes, I know I am a total and complete NERD!!

Just some stuff!

So, my blog hero The Pioneer Woman (see her blog here http://thepioneerwoman.com/)
says if you have a blog you must blog everyday. I was on a kick for awhile but I slacked off.
I will try to be better. Also, my friend Sally gets bored at work and they don't block my blog like they do Pioneer Woman's blog so I better kick it up a notch so Sally has some
entertainment!
The Pioneer Woman was in town yesterday for a book signing. I didn't go. I kind of wished I had but I again was a slacker. But I did read her book in one sitting.
Bought it at noon was done by 11pm. I also bought her cookbook (I had $65 in Borders gift cards that were burning a hole in my pocket.) So, I am going to have to whip up some of her tasty recipes.

Super Bowl weekend I had 5 people staying at my house. The Super Bowl was held 5 minutes from my house at Cowboys Stadium. So, The Packer fans arrived in the midst of the worst Texas weather ever. But we had a BLAST. And the Packers won! :)
(note to self - Super Bowl Blog)
So, I finally folded and put away all the laundry left over from Super Bowl weekend. Yes, it sat on my couch for a week.
I now have to clean out the closet that I shoved everything into at the last minute to "hide" it.
I am putting that off for another week or 4....

The Valentine Fairy made sure I had a surprise when I got home from work yesterday.
My dad & mom2 sent overnighted me Valentines to tell me I was actually their FAVORITE child. They also sent me this red horse. Yes, I am still 39 and my parents STILL give me stuffed animals!
Anywho... I named him AL.
In honor Alice my dad's Newfoundland they put to sleep last Monday.

She was a month shy of 15 years old which is AMAZINGLY old for Newfies.
The other 2 Newfies my parents had hit 9 and went rapidly down hill.
Didn't she have a GREAT face?
Loved that big dog. I would roll around on the floor with her. Take naps with my head on her belly. She was so gentle and sweet. I miss her like crazy. I know I will cry the next time I walk into my parents house and realize she isn't there.
But she is much happier now. She is in Dog Heaven eating ham sandwich's and running around with Lighting and Daisy my dad's other Newfies.
Well now that I am sad again over Alice I will sign off.
Have a GREAT day y'all!
I will be back again tomorrow!
XOXOXOXO
Kate

Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day!
I used to hate Valentine's Day.
Because people make you feel bad for being single.
I am VERY happy and comfortable in my "single" status.
I see way too many couples out there who are unhappy in their current situation but will not do anything about it because they dont want to upset the children or can't afford to live alone.
Trust me your kids will survive and in most cases be much happier.
If you want something bad enough you will figure out a way to finance it.
I might have a boyfriend y'all just don't know about. Or I might have several! Ohhh scandelous!
But I will save all that for another day another blog!
Until then enjoy the pic of my favorite fuzzy Valentine Coach!
He is working hard with me today at my current love LHO Design & Consign.
The furniture store I started helping out at the past summer.
It is one of the most wonderful places to work.
GREAT boss.
Fun customer minus the creepers we get on full moons.
AND I get to play with paint and furniture!
I will work on a post of my projects... with some before and after pictures.
I ALWAYS forget to take the before pics and it drives me crazy.
I get soooooo excited about the project that I just start then I get about 5 strokes in and think "CRAP! I forgot to take a before pic!"
Anywho... It is slow at the store today maybe I will get some pics up after I dust and sweep!
Happy Valentine's Day!
You should love EVERYDAY not just 2/14 !!
XOXOXOX
Kate & Coach Landry
