#1 Song

So I am stealing this idea from Amie but I thought it was pretty fun. There is this website:

where you can go to find out the #1 song on any day. I went and found out that the #1 song the day I was born was "Sledgehammer" by Peter Gabriel (never heard of it). The #1 song the day Ashton was born was "Maneater" by Daryl Hall & John Oates (still hear it). The #1 song the day we were married, "We Belong Together" by Mariah Carey (see, we were destined :) ). Check it out, it's a lot of fun!

Burn Notice

This month, I took off a few days to get us packed and ready to move, but Ashton had to work. Right now, tutoring isn't that busy since it is just summer school, so he usually just sits alone in a computer lab hoping for someone to come in. Well one day he got bored and sent me this e-mail...

Hey Alison.
Do you have anything to do with this? I really hope not.

Needless to say, I was a little freaked out. So I figured I'd issue my own "burn notice"

Make a Smilebox greeting

Just trying to be frugal...

So, this last weekend we moved to an apartment a little closer to my work to help save money. As with all moves, there is a lot of cleaning to be done. Well, we bought one of those Swiffer dusters and I decided to see if you could hand wash it and then use it again. After all, I was just going to throw it away so if I ruined it, no loss. So, I washed it and then decided to go to our 3rd story balcony and shake out some of the excess water. As I was doing so, I forgot to hold on to it and well... it flew off the handle and landed in the tree below. I laughed soooo hard! Of course that was going to happen!

A few nights later we had a huge wind storm. I stood out on our balcony watching my little duster, so when it fell, I would know where to go to get it. Then Ashton called me in to see the finale of So You Think You Can Dance, and within those few seconds, my duster had fallen from the tree and I missed it. I ran downstairs and searched everywhere for it but I couldn't find it. I didn't see it in the tree, I couldn't find it on the ground, it just disappeared!

So now I just hope that some bird has found it and has made a very nice nest for its self.

Happy Anniversary

This last weekend was also my parents anniversary. They are celebrating 29 years! Congratulations and thank you for being such wonderful parents and examples. We all love you!
