It's OK 7/5 and Thankful Thursday



Its Ok Thursdays





It's okay that ninja'd my way into the neighbors' driveway to get this picture.


I told you they were hillbillies.

It's okay that I got a new computer.


Yepperdoodle.  He took me to Best Buy and bought me a MacBook Pro.  I tried to resist.  Really.

It's okay that my husband also bought me a pistol.


Strangely enough, I'm a better shot with the big gun.  (Note:  This is my "in case zombies attack gun".)


Also, I have a weird quirk in which I cannot close my left eye on its own.  Therefore, I cannot shoot right-handed if there's a scope involved.  I shoot with my left hand.  Weirdooooo......


For the record...

It's not okay that there are ugly shoes galore at the mall...being purchased by people.  I don't care who you are.  Those butterflies on your shoes, you grown woman you, are not okay.  These would all look adorable...on a 3 year old.

It's also not okay that boots had to come back out this past week.  Sonofabeepbeepbeep,Alaska,Ihateyou.


As Scott and I were walking in downtown Anchorage on a 57* July day, I was counting tourists with fanny packs and he was just wishing all people everywhere would go away...and he mentioned that the weather wasn't exactly ideal.  You think, darling?

For Thankful Thursdays at The Ramblings of Mrs. Hargraves?

I'm thankful that my husband is home for a bit.  That is all.

  4. First, I'm glad you succumbed to a Mac! They are the best and you won't be sorry. Secondly, with those kind of neighbors, no wonder you're armed & dangerous:-D And, lastly, I agree about the shoes--we're not all Madonna or Katy Perry and can get away with that look!!
    Happy Thursday, dear friend XOXO

  8. I only started hearing about the texas/alaska fight when we got to Alaska. I think it's only alaska that hates texas and texas knows nothing about it. Haha.
    And i totally agree about the weather. It's been rainy and 50-60 here all week and then the sun comes out at night just enough to make us all pretty miserable right at bedtime, yay sun! <-- sarcasm.

  9. Those shoes are hideous! As a shoe-obsessed girl, I am offended that people would even buy such things. @Susan, I don't even think Madonna or Katy Perry could pull off that look! lol :)

    I'm so glad your husband is home for a bit!!

  15. So speaking of hating Alaska, I totally thought about you while I was in Montana last week (in that totally-not-creepy-but-hey-I-read-her-blog-and-it-crossed-my-mind kinda way, haha)... Anyway, my friend and I ended up driving through Yellowstone (ok, we might have been in Wyoming at this point) and there were all these warnings about the chance of a rogue moose chasing you down because they can run 3x faster than a human and I thought about a) the opening scene of Northern Exposure and b) that I would live in constant fear of a mooseing if I lived in Alaska.

    End rambling about a moose.
