Lazy, Misty Saturday

Woke up at Myranda's. Left her house. Went to Espresso World for a regular bagel with cream cheese and a hot chocolate. Drove home in the rain/mist. I love rainy days.

Came home, walked in the door. Mom smiles at me and asks me how my night was. My family was playing Mario, Momma was making lunch. Mary-Beth bounces over to me and she gives me a big hug, I kiss her on the nose and she bounces away.

I sit at the counter and talk to my mom for a while, while I get on my computer to check stuff.

I went to sit on the couch with a blanket and my computer to watch Desperate Housewives, but I wanted to write this blog first. Dan takes a break from Mario, he gets into the marshmallows in the pantry and chucks one at me for me to eat too.

I have Nut curled up, laying next to me sleeping.



Sleepy Hazel

This poor dog has so many nicknames:

-Haze

-The Haze

-Nut

-Nutty
-Hazelnut

-Idiot

-Kitty

-Stupid

-Nut case

-Dog

-Freak

-Freak of nature

But no matter what we call her we still love her.

Anyway.

I like listening to my family talk and the noises that the house makes. The washer and dryer going, Hazel snoring, the "whoooaaaa!!!'s from Mom when Dan is playing Mario. Right now the kids are having their quiet time. Or *suppossed* to be having quiet time.

Sometimes we take for granted the people we have in our life. (Well I know I do.) It would be so sad to be alone. Not being able to hear kids in the background laughing and playing. Or maybe they aren't in the background and they are all up in your face. A husband and wife getting along and playing a video game together. Sometimes people miss out on this stuff.

Just think of how it would be if you didn't have the people in your life that you do. Your kids, your spouse, the dumb dog.

Having your family around is so nice.

Family is awesome.

(*are* awesome?)

Having a family is awesome. There, that works.
