No Chocolate?
Today is the first day I haven’t had any chocolate in a very long time! I usually eat something with chocolate daily. My latest fix was Dale & Thomas Chocolate Covered Popcorn which you can now buy at Target.
I can’t believe I made it through the whole day without one piece. I ate fruit instead–blueberries, a banana, a peach, an apple and some grean beans.
I also tried a Pilates DVD tonight. It felt good to move again. (I move, I just don’t exercise as much as I should.)
Not much to say…
but i will still try and write something.
Danielle was gone for 2 months but she is back now and that’s really nice. It was quiet with her not home. She is very helpful and is being nice and sweet. School starts for her Aug. 10th–not too much of a summer.
Matt and I have been cleaning up the garage. Looks much better but need to wait for trash day to be able to put my car back in. We still need to tweak a few things but it feels more organized. We haven’t put the attic door in because of his back but we will get that done soon.
Matt and I took Mason to the splash park today. This is the first time he has been where is is actually walking on his own. He really did have a blast. He stopped and had a plum for snack and played a bit more but when he was done, BOY was he done! We took him out of his wet clothes and he fell asleep on the way home.
I went to play Bunko for the first time since Ashley Young’s 13th birthday party. My friend Marina and I went and we had much more fun than we expected. Marina had never played and she ended up being the big winner for the night! We are hoping to keep playing.
I am still trying to lose a few pounds, but I guess I am not trying hard enough becuase nothing is still coming off. I found a new simple goal setting site I am going to try and use. Joe’s Goals is a pretty simple checklist type of goal tracking site. I even added a goal to blog more!
One of the main reason’s I haven’t been blogging is because MY CAMERA BROKE and have no real recent pictures. I already picked out my replacement, the Canon SD630, just need to buy it.
Well, that’s it for now.
Hopefully I will be back sooner than last time.

My baby is walking
Mason finally started walking on his own! 13 1/2 months old and his is now walking on his own. I add a video clip to google so as soon as its verified I will add the link here.
Mason at the Houston Museum of Natural Science’s The Cockrell Butterfly Center - July 9th, 2006.
UPDATE: Link to video of Mason walking. Google Video took too long.
Yay Italia!
Italy won the 2006 FIFA World Cup in Germany on my sister’s birthday, July 9th!
I was rooting for the the whole time!
Yay Italia!
Anyone want to buy a 2003 Ford F-250?
For Sale: 2003 Ford F-250 Diesel Truck
UPDATE: Sold back in April… One of the most awesome trucks to drive. I loved it. The sadest day was the last time I drove Big Red down Beltway 8 and just really getting on it! This truck has soo much power and that turbo whistles like a jet!
We recently got a letter from the current owner. Some how a young guy in California now has it. (We originally sold it so a guy in Houston that has a construction company.) He says when people drive it, they come back with it thinking they just went to Disneyland. Matt gave him the run down on all the modifications. We are just glad to know the truck is in great hands and that maybe one day, we’ll see her again.
DVD collection
I decided to find a tool to manage our DVD collection. I decided to go with DVDAttache because it was easy to use, had a export to web option, and its FREE!
Here is our DVD list for your browsing. (Still need to tweak the look of the pages)
GOAL!!!
I am soo glad Italy beat Germany in the 1st Semifinal match in the 2006 World Cup. I sure hope they can win it all.
