Drinking Wine Serves a Greater (Greener) Purpose
My name is Raych and I love wine. Wine serves a purpose in my life. relaxation. solves boredom. something to drink at dinner. and now, thanks to Kendi at Kendi Everyday my wine serves another purpose. A practical purpose. I’ll back it up. So since the floors are done (including the carpet in my closet. finally) I’ve been…
Read MoreAsh Ash baby
Its Ash Wednesday. Its a good time to reflect on my New Years Resolutions: Being Positive: umm B (if you ask Husband he will say C) Going to the Gym more often than not: total D Be a better blogger: you guys know the answer to this. C (if I’m being generous) Find my dream…
Read MoreBloggers Block is a Beeyoch
The story I’m about to tell you belongs on the Maury Povich show. Or 60 minutes where they do the “I survived” stories. Actually, a combination of the 2 shows. It has all the elements: knocked up mother, unknown father, desperation, near death experience, rescue, reuniting of mother and son. This wouldn’t actually make it…
Read MoreNew Year, New Look
eh? eh?! Wacha think? Classy no? Anyhoo, thought I’d spruce up the ol’ blog for your reading pleasure. So in honor of the New Year (and the new look) I thought I’d share a few of my 2011 resolutions. FYI I’m mostly sharing these because if I put them out in blogland my odds of…
Read MorePottery Barn Can Suck It.
There are very few things that tick me off more than when I don’t get my Pottery Barn catalog. I drove my happy ass back from Thanksgiving in Dallas and the one and only thing I wanted was to snuggle my dogs and rip pages out of a pottery barn catalog. That’s all I wanted.…
Read MoreConfessions of an Oilfield Wife Entry # 409,598
Why do rigs call out around the holidays? Do they want oilfield wives to hunt them down and make them pay? Hmmmm??? This will only be mildly “2 year old tantrum”. Cuz my Thanksgiving is going to be a nice cool breeze. Basically I’m cooking the turkey and all the stray oilfield boys will bring…
Read MoreOde to Omaha
Ok. So this isn’t about our Halloween party. Obvs. So my card reader hates me (probably because I always put it in the junk drawer) and decided to die and that’s why it’s Nov 3rd and there are still no pictures up of Halloween. Husband is buying me a new one today. Regularly scheduled posting…
Read MorePunkin Patch
So Husband FINALLY came home yesterday. He really wanted to go to the pumpkin patch and the only day available was the day he arrived. So 6 of our closest peeps joined us at Dewberry Farm west of Houston. Disclaimer: nothing will compare to Vala’s Pumpkin Patch just outside of Omaha. Nothing. So even though…
Read MoreConfessions of an Oilfield Wife. Volume 2.
This is going to be a random post with no pictures. So if you are a “I don’t actually read blogs I just skim the pictures” kind of person, go ahead and click next on your google reader. So. Its Friday. I’m tired and lazy so I decided to give you a little top 5…
Read MoreMy own personal hell
I detest working out Exercise of any kind really. Except Hockey, which isn’t super easy to play down here in the sauna south. Husband was a personal trainer in college. He thinks that gives him permission, nay, the right, to holler at me like a drill sergeant and MAKE me work out. I hate it.…
