More Flowers around my house

Aren't these beautiful? They popped out of nowhere this past weekend. I just had to grab my camera to take a photo of them. We had no idea what was growing so tall around one of our bushes and then one morning we woke up to these beautiful flowers. They bloom during the day and close up during the night. I want to get more of these flowers and put them around the bushes in the backyard. They are absolutely GORGEOUS!

Ugh...Ugh...Ugh....that totally doesn't describe it.

Oh my, what a 4 DAY WEEKEND! Can I have just a couple more days for relaxation? Did I really have to go to class today? Let's see today's schedule was go to school at 0730, wait around for a bit, go into the LAB to learn about how to get DAMA up and running, then had to do Urinalysis. Let's just say I'm glad I'm a Woman and not a Man. When it comes to having to wait around to do the Pee Test...Men have a line for it and Women don't, which is odd since we're usually the ones waiting in lines at places to use the bathroom. I went home before 1030 and met up with my hubby and we went to Applebee's for Lunch. It was great to have lunch with him. Then we went to Navy College so he can find out some information since he wants to start school this Fall. At 1730, I had an appointment at the YMCA to meet with the FitQuest Coordinator to set up a Fitness Plan. I want to tone up my muscles more since I've gained the weight back that I wanted. I was 110 lbs last year. It has taken me since 2006 to gain the weight back that I wanted. I lost all my weight and more after I had Alexia. I gained a little back, but then lost it last year. I'm just glad to finally have my original weight and I'm going to keep it for awhile until me and the hubby decide to make Alexia a Big Sister...which right now is on hold...since I've kind of changed my mind for right now after this 4 day weekend. LOL Let's just say I had my youngest stepson and my nephew who is the same age as Gareth come over and our house was a WRECK when they left. LOL I think God gave me a little girl at first because he knew how much I couldn't handle boys yet. I enjoy my girlie girl princess very much. I love my youngest stepson, don't get me wrong, but my nephew and him together at the same time...let's just say they are a handful. They're really funny though and they kept us laughing all weekend. They had a blast, which was GREAT. They stayed 3 nights with us. Alexia had a blast of course. She wouldn't leave her step-brother and cousin alone. We did so much this past weekend, I think this weekend coming up will be my relaxing weekend. Well that's it for now. I'm heading to bed early since I have PT first thing in the morning. Plus, I have a book I really want to finish. Tomorrow will be a short day too since we'll be going to a New Module on Thursday. Hope everyone had an amazing Memorial Day weekend.

Some of my Beautiful Flowers

I love flowers! I have always wanted my own flower garden growing up after watching my Mom tend to her plants and flowers. My favorite flower "Gerbera Daisies" which are shown in the first two photos. If I could I would plant these all around the house. The 3rd photo, I'm still trying to figure out what it is since it bloomed one day after the rain. It's weird looking, but I love it.
I'll post more pictures of the rest of my flowers as soon as I download them to my computer. I have to start gardening more once I feel better, but as of right now I'm quarantined to the house until my sinuses finally stop acting up. :(

Our Little Friend

I usually don't like spiders, but I happen to come across this little guy on our house when we first moved in. I accidentally almost bumped into him. Of course, I would've been screaming bloody murder if he would've ended up on me. I can't stand spiders, but this little guy fascinated me. He's not your normal spider as you can already tell. He had a hold of a bee and I just had to run and get my camera to take some close ups of him. He didn't even budge while I took photos of him. Any spider that gets a hold of a bee and wraps him in his web, is a friend of mine. I can't stand bees/wasps. I believe he lives somewhere around the house. I'm waiting to see him come out again. I just hope the spider doesn't decide to have babies.

Starting it over...UGH!

Unfortunately I had to switch Blog Sites due to reasons of Vox letting Bloggers who enjoy Porn add my Blog Site to their neighborhood and once they add your site, you can block them, but your still on their neighborhood. I don't appreciate my blog site showing up on their porn blog site. So I'm happy to have my blog be on Blogger again. I already have my Photography & Boutique Blogs on Blogger. I'll post them once I get a chance to. I'm a Blog-Aholic. As you can already tell, if you know me very well, so be forewarned on lots of stories of my life, vents, rants, and etc...whatever I feel like blogging about that day. Until then though, I'm taking the next 4 days off. It's Memorial Day Weekend. I promise to blog as soon as I can. Hope everyone has a GREAT weekend. Image and video hosting by TinyPic
