I talk about it just about every day.  Just how damn happy I am.  Although the rest of my life is crazy (work, etc)– pre-Luci, I’d really really be freaking out.  But, now that I have Luci, everything is put into perspective and I just don’t really give a crap about anything else.  So I worry less about non-Luci topics, and I smile a lot more.  A LOT more. 

I mean, how could I not? 

Date nights are AWESOME.  We hadn't been on one in a long, long, long time.  We have been out, have gotten a babysitter and all that, but we've gone to weddings, have had friends in town, etc etc, so we haven't actually been on a "date-date" in prolly 4+ months? So, I redesigned my blog!  It's kinda fancy but I like →

And WHAT have I been doing with my time?  I can tell you.  In one short, succinct sentence.  Or word, rather. WORK. Holy Crappers.  I haven't posted since November!  Now, that is insane.  In the membrane. Work has really taken it out of me lately.  The last 8 months have been hell on earth or hell in the McCombs school and I am →

It seems like Luci has been making a ton of advances during the last few weeks. I'm not sure what's going on, but she's learning new "tricks" almost daily. It's just so much damn fun. We've had the most fun with her over this long weekend. Makes me wish I was a stay at home mom. Like, really really bad. Here's →

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! Wow, hello, posting hiatus!  I guess life has gotten in the way.  Things have been so crazy- it seems like each week is crazier than the last! I thought I'd do a quick post to profess my thanks for the incredible life I live! I am soooooo thankful for: My awesome husband, who can name a record just from the sound →

Carlos Basso Dos Fincas- 2008 Cab/Sav-Malbec. Broken English. Perfect combo for a loney Sunday night. Perfection. Oh, my sweet Parker Posey.  The gal never disappoints.

Interviewer= Shannon= "S" Interviewee= Shannon= "Self" S:  So, how's life since the marathon? Self:  Well, it's good.  I miss running though.  I haven't done a lick of running since the race and I feel fat and lethargic and just plain disgusting- my regular jeans feel like skinny jeans etc, etc....  I really didn't do any running 3 weeks before the race because of →

Happy happy day.   I am foot-loose and fancy free!  My foot is better! I had a crappy test run on Sunday- limping afterwords and almost couldn't even walk back to the car.  Went back to the Dr Monday feelin' blue with not a lot of hope about the race.  Dr. reexamined me,  said it was a problem with my "cuboid"  bone- →

I'm sucking at blogging.  Not surprising.  I just can't get it together with everything going on.  So, I've decided to take matters into my own hands and add a little something new to the mix that should be fairly easy and quick for me to blog about.  Myself.   I'm gonna call it "What's up, Speezle" and it'll be a series →

So, this week kicked off the start of another recruiting season at work and brings along with it all the stress and traveling........  I don't know how I'm going to handle it this year.   I'm down a staff member who used to help with the traveling and now it's just me.  I've been working random late nights and weekend days →
