bee and rose

Today we are a wee bit sensitive at the Bee and Rose....you can all send your thanks to Chilly for that....(for those of you just joining our regularly scheduled programming, Chilly would be my hubster...) You see, Tuesday evening, the Chillmeister decided to interrupt my practically perfect pity party with news that he was bringing home the DVD "Seven Pounds" starring Will Smith. As he delivered this bombshell, I was in the midst of a series of "Why Me's", "What Do You Want From Me's" and other assorted mental suckage issues with God. I find it ironic that shortly after I issued my invite to the Heavens to my pity party, Chilly calls about the DVD. Mind you, he is really proud of himself because he feels he has "listened" to me during casual conversation where I mentioned once that I would like to see that movie. So he calls, and says "I have a surprise for you...yada, yada, yada" and I reply "Whatev" and get back...

Cat made some new friends in our neighborhood yesterday.....new friends wearing fun summer fashions.... Cat sharing a laugh with the ladies....I kept telling her to ask them why they weren't wearing their Old Navy Town Gowns, but she wouldn't do it....so I asked them myself and they said it was "casual Tuesday".....I said I thought it should be "Town Gown Tuesday", but they just shoo'd me off to the "2 for $5.00" flip flop sale..... Of course, Cat wants to adopt this puppy....the Modelkins family didn't want to give him up....Do you have any interesting people in your neighborhood???

Hi ya'll! I've got some random for you today! (This is probably best since I can't seem to string two coherent thoughts together with any success....) We had a fantastic time on Sunday celebrating Father's Day (especially since the hospital wanted to get rid of Chilly a day early! Hooray!) Chilly loved his cards and gifts! Wait...what's that? You say Father's Day isn't until June 21? Seriously? This is entirely Chilly's fault. He kept insisting that Father's Day was last Sunday. Sorry, Dad (my dad) for making you think I had completely lost my marbles by sending your card a week early..... ****** Have you heard the fabulous news???? Blueviolet is back!! Get on over there and give her a big neighborly welcome!!!! ****** I was tagged by the most amazing Kristen from La Dolce Vita last week to share with you six unimportant things that make me happy. This is super easy for me because pretty much everything makes me happy...except for the sa...

Let's start this freakin' fabulous Friday with funky feet... specifically Chilly's funky feet... Funky feet have landed him a fabulous four day stay (or longer) at the fantastic hospital! Can you give me a woot woot?!? That's right,family & friends! Chilly is chillin' at the hospital as we speak! Yesterday was a flippin' fun day for me and the kiddos! We started our day out with friends at the zoo. I received a call from the Chillmeister that he was in the ER and was about to be admitted due to a blister that became a ridiculously large diabetic ulcer on the bottom of his foot. (Keep in mind he's recovering from a broken leg too...) Apparently, the "ulcer" has created conditions that could cause him to lose his foot (or worse, his life! He can't do anything without a little drama, you know...) So, just when I thought my life was returning to a bit of normalcy, BAM! Here we go again! The best part? He didn't even feel this feste...

Join in the Not Me! Monday fun brought to the land of Blog from MckMama over at My Charming Kids! I did NOT have a lovely weekend with my family in Scottsdale while enjoying Catherine's Irish dance competition. I did NOT enjoy my huge turkey salad at Shogun on Friday. Chilly does NOT force us to eat at Shogun everytime we visit Scottsdale. He did NOT talk non-stop about their stupid famous turkey salad from the minute he found out we were going to Scottsdale. I did NOT want to shove the ginormous salad down his throat the minute it was served just to shut him up already about the turkey salad. (I am NOT admitting to the public that I love this turkey salad as much as Chilly does.) I did NOT find out all sorts of interesting things about Chilly from his best friend who joined us for lunch at Shogun that I can use in the future blackmailing of my husband. There are NOT photos involved in these sordid tales to prove these stories are NOT true. I am NOT ridiculously proud of this...

Did you hear that? Did you hear that thumping sound coming from your computer? That would be me beating my head against the wall....actually, it would be me crashing into the wall. It finally happened....I hit the wall of despair. I am completely overwhelmed, exhausted and frustrated by the events of the last two months, not to mention the last two years. Typically, I am a pretty happy go lucky little bee. The last few weeks...not so much. The last few days....grrrr.....(two sick kids and a sick mommy....not a fun combination....) I haven't been around the blogs much. I've thrown up a post here and there, but with the "behind the scenes of it all", my commenting/stalking time has been cut DRASTICALLY. I really miss visiting with my bloggy buddies. I've tried to do a wee bit of stalking here and there, but I'm always getting interrupted with some sort of disaster that needs averting. One of the nasty time cutters has been a health condition of my ow...

Join in the Not Me! Monday fun brought to the land of Blog from MckMama over at My Charming Kids! I did NOT have my mini makeover this weekend. I did NOT return home from the hair salon looking like her....(seriously...my hair is NOT this streaky or these same colors...no offense, Kelly, this looks fabulous on you.... for those of you new to this style of blog meme...this is exactly what my hair looks like right now but with more bleachy streaks...) Chilly and the kids did NOT call me Kelly Clarkson all weekend. My stylist would NEVER do this to me especially when I told him this (see photo below) is what I wanted....I did NOT show him a photo of the color I wanted....My hair is NOT even more auburn than before with huge streaks of bleach blonde...(not that I didn't enjoy my previously auburn colored hair, I just wanted to shake things up for summer...) I did NOT make it extremely clear that I wanted all coppery red tones out of my hair. I did NOT say repeatedly I wante...
