Our dear friends from New Orleans spent part of the week with us when Gustav came to visit the coast. Gabrielle turns 14 today! We are very proud of the sweet young lady she is becoming.

A Yankee by birth, a Southern by placement...I'm still full of sarcasm...I just do it with a smile on my face.
Yours Truly...
- Fred-o
- Suburbia, The South
- Full of... contradictions, frustration, and caffeine!
The clan in this saga
Trek - My best friend / hubbie of almost 15 years.
George - 1st one we decided to add to our saga. Warped? Not yet...but we are working on it. (Male, 10 years)
Twirl - 2nd to make an appearance. Destined to be an art major living in Greenwich Village in 10 years. (Female, 8 years)
Monkey - 3rd on stage. We are banking that she will be our meal ticket in 20 years. Can you say Genetic Physicist when you are 4 years old? (Female, 4 years)
Little Bit - The ending credits. The flower child born in 2005 instead of 1965. If we can just get her potty trained and keep her from getting married before she is 18... (Female, 3 years)
100 Things...about the Queen
- I love Dr. Quinn reruns
- Trek and I started dating when I was a sophmore in high school. He was a freshman in college. While he was in still in high school, we were friends. He would sit with me in the cafeteria. One day, someone said something funny about the time I was taking a drink. I spued tea across the table, all over him. Come to think of it...maybe that was what first attracted him to me. I've always been the graceful, ladylike type. My table manners are impeccable....
- Best I can recall I have been on an operating room table 17 times. Friends tell me I am addicted to surgery, but none of the surgeries have been elective...yet! Can anyone say tummy tuck, face lift, rhinoplasty? There's an old wives tale that says every time you are put to sleep it takes 5 years off your life...if that is so, I have been on borrowed time since age 3.
- Starbucks is the epitome of contradictions. I love it for the awesomeness of their caffeine infested drinks that taste like melted hot fudge sundaes, but I hate them because I probably just bought the president of Starbucks his newest vacation home with the ridiculous price I pay for one cup of the fattening wonderfulness called coffee.
- Coffee steak from Stoney River in Nashville is the best steak I've ever eaten.
- Did I mention I love movies?
- Everyone I know has a gross picture of me sleeping. I am the ugliest sleeper ever created. When I die, the entire slideshow, collage or memorial program will be full of pics of me with my mouth hanging open and drool pooling beside my head.
- I am a horrible cook. I hate to cook. I hate to think about cooking, but somehow I have twenty thousand cookbooks. Everytime I go to Wal-Mart, I am tempted to buy another one just in case I need a recipe someday.
- I love black. No, I'm not goth. I just love the color...everywhere. Does that make me goth?
- I love movies...not all kinds. Only the ones that are somewhat believable. One that includes a good kiss doesn't hurt either.
- I LOVE SNOW. Snow on the ground all the time would be perfect for me.
- I love that my hubbie holds me against the seat with his arm every time he has to brake hard while driving. I know he doesn't think about it, but it makes me feel loved.
- I love tiramisu. The Cheesecake Factory tiramisu cheesecake is the best 50,000 calories you'll ever eat.
- I love to travel...REALLY love to travel.
- I was 5 months pregnant with my 4th child when I got on a plane to go to China to get my 3rd child.
- I watch Lifetime movies. I can apply just about any life situation to a Lifetime movie I have seen.
- I'm a Yankee...and proud to be.
- My friend and her hubbie once jumped on a plane to come and sit with me at the hospital when I had surgery. I was completely surprised and it meant the world to me.
- My hubbie calls me Fred. Not sure why, but it started while we were still dating. I love it.
