Would you say I have a plethora of pinatas?

"When pure men are happy, the universe reveals itself in it's truest splendor." St. Augustine

Hmmmmm...it might be quite pompous of me to do this. I haven't made up my mind. My dear friend Charlane's is not, however, and I suppose that is why I decided to do this. I do so enjoy catching up with her through her musings.When you live thousands of miles away from friends and family, and if they are the least bit interested in you....perhaps this might be a good thing. Perhaps I am just full of myself this morning. Regardless, I will do it. I have always loved to write both good stuff and not so good stuff. And maybe here is where the twain shall meet. Twain...nobody uses that word anymore. Or twixt. i really like twixt and twain. but if you say them together it sounds like you have a speech impediment.

However, I SHALL ramble. And I shall use fanatical run-on sentences, overuse and underuse proper punctuation and will definately give the proverbial finger to acceptable grammar and spelling. Such is life as I live it. Amen and hallelujah.

See this baby? She is cuuuuuttteee!! Bing and I have so much fun with her. She is just the absolute best. She is such a happy baby...smiles all the time. I got her to honest-to -God giggle yesterdday for the first time. it was adorable!! I sang "patty cake" with her and shook her arms real fast when I said" roll it and you roll it.." She thought that was the funniest thing she had ever seen. I, however ,have seen funnier...


I told Bing about it when he got up from sleeping....he was so jealous. He grabbed her up and was intent on making her giggle. I was crossing my fingers that she would. He loves that child so much and hates to miss out on anything. He had just said something about our state of financial affairs and told Caroline she needed to go out a get a job. then he started singing a song about if she did get a job, she would still be broke 'cause she didn't have any pockets. Hahaha...both caroline and myslef thought that was hilarious and the giggling began. Bing was so excited. I love to see that man happy...he smiles so big and those sweet eyes get all scrunched up. I sure do love this silly little family. We have lots of fun.


I think this is Bing see himself at work. Heehee. Apparently so do his peeps.....Sarge took him out for coffee the other night and went on and on about what a great cop he was. And Bing also got kudos from the SWAT guys when he had his ACT training ( he was chosen because of his bad-assness to do a special week long SWAT type training.) A buddy of his on SWAT said all the guys were sitting around talking about the training and who sucked/ or was a standout. They all agreed that the "big bald guy with the southern accent" was really good. Bing acted like.."whatever" but you could tell he was so excited .


It's a long weekend for me. thank God! I should be doing something contructive since Plumpkers is sleeping. Bing calls her " Turkey Dressed as A Baby" I made up a song about it that she really likes. Sometimes she is " Turkey Dressed as a Frog". Haha...wouldn't that be a great kids' book? I have always said that one day I would do that...I have part of one already written. But I'm the queen of half-finished and half-baked ideas. They mostly get done....but it can take a while.


School is almost out. Then Lousiana bound!! I can't wait to get home and show off PLumperstilstskin. Yes, she hardly ever goes by Caroline....like the rest of our family she has 300 nicknames.
Lady Bird awakens. I must bid adieu.
