Trick Or Treat, Smell My Feet

It was 102 degrees out today but it felt like elevinty thousand. No, really, that's what it felt like! & even though summer is at it's peak and probably wont disappear until early October, I'm dreading it's goodbye. I love summer. A lot. Although, I could do without the sweaty arm pits, crickets, second degree burns, oh and sweaty feet. But the alternative is winter: short days, ugly coats, ugly weather. Pretty sucky all around. The only thing that gets me through winter is hot chocolate (preferably the kind with marshmallows) and the light at the end of the tunnel: summer :).

The bridge between summer and winter is fall. Here in Texas we get about 12 days of awesome fall weather accompanied by Halloween; did you know it's my favorite holiday? It's true. It allows me to dig into my inner child and make these:

And I'm allowed to wear silly wigs like this:

Any who, I need to do loads of laundry, seriously it's like 5. I hate laundry :( Wanna help? I pay in Skittles!

I Know :)

Baby fever is possibly the worst kind of sickness any unwed 21 year old female can go through. Honestly, my plan IS to wait another 4 years and then make some cute little babies, but the problem is I am so impatient! Is it ridiculous that I spend a lot of my time thinking about little boy names and little girl names? Or that I have decided what months I would like for my offsping to have birthdays? I think so. I know I'm young and have the rest of my life to have children; and I know I am not even close to being stable enough to having kids. I know all of these things, but i still have this horrible urge. I'm absolutely terrified that I'll die before i have kids, and that thought it self scares me more than death it's self. It's completely bonkers, I know. But i can tell you this. It's MY CALLING, to be a mother, I know this like I know that the sun will rise tomorrow. I know for a fact that if I don't ever put my hard work and sweat into anything else in my life, I will in to being the best mother I can be. This I know.

Also, I'd like to wish one of my beautiful best friends, Jennifer, a belated birthday as well as My little sister, Lily, a happy 20th birthday this Monday!

Simply Happy

I'm just happy, that's it. If i blogged every day they would all be happy posts, for the most part. I've recently broken the memory card on my camera and i'm waiting for a new one... so until then, I lack good pictures :(
4th of July weekend was swell, spent time with the family and did a load of laundry, I was also  reminded why I don't spend TOOO much time with the family. Aside from my mom, dad, brother and sister, I have NOTHING in comom with cousins, aunts and uncles. Nice people, but were all so completely different. I suppose we are all very different but I tend to follow those who have the same interests in life as i do, they- have verrry different ideas and opinions than I do. I guess it's my generation, and the fact that i was raised in a completely different culture/home than they were. It's a pretty wierd situation, but with my immediate friends and family by my side I'm a supa happy girl :)

Vacation

I've been back at work for a week and I'm  already looking forward to my next one. While we were there it all felt surreal. Now i look back on my vaction and it feels like a dream. I'd give my pinky toe to spend another week with Chase in Florida.

Minutes before I started crying take off :)

The pictures don't do justice of the beautiful weather and beaches. More pictures to come soon :)

Birthdays, lost children & Pensacola

This past Sunday was my Mr. Neill's 23rd birthday. We celebrated with lunch at the Olive Garden, A walk with our Tucker boy, and a delightful Dinner with his lovely family. It's hard to imagine that I've known him since he was 16, time has flown by & we still have so many more birthdays to look forward to.

The night before last I went home and watched tucker while Chase went to his dad's. Tucker is a baby, and he's ever so rebellious! I took him on a car ride to pick some dinner up for Chase and I. When we arrived home i let him out of the car so he could go potty. I grabbed our dinner and called for him to follow along. I was almost up to the door when I noticed that Tucker's foot steps were nowhere to be heard. I quickly ran back and started calling his name. "Tucker! come here, baby!" I yelled. Tucker was not in sight. I put our drinks and food down & I picked the phone up in a panic. I thought "what am I going to tell Chase? That I lost our dog!?" i pushed the send button as my mind went crazy with what would come next, before he answered I heard his truck roaring down the street. I hung up. I stood there, frozen. I looked at him and he looked at me and he could tell something was wrong immediately. Before he had the time to put the truck in park I looked to my right and there was Tucker. Hanging out with some guys down the road. I quickly ran over there and apologized for int erupting. I was soo happy to see him! Honestly, I think there was only a 2 minute time last from the last time a saw him until I found him, but to me it seemed like a life time!
I hope Chase trusts me with our Children. The first night alone with my Tucker didn't prove to be very successful :/

On other news: Trip to Pensacola has been cancelled. The oil spill ruined it and I'm highly upset. Now we will be traveling to Miami. Let's hope this one sticks. 19 days :)

                                     

Fail

There is nothing I want more than to become a decent blogger, but it seems like there are just not enough hours in one day to get things done. Class will be done in about a week and I'm hoping that when summer time comes around my schedule will be a little more open. Vacation to Florida is coming up quick and I feel soo unprepared excited! Hopefully we will get some amazing pictures to finally get the ball rolling on this blog. As for our our little man Tucker, he's developed a horrible habbit, he likes to bite! & bite hard! poor little guy looks so confused when you tell him "NO" he doesn't know any better...

I'll be posting some pictures of the last month with Tucker later.

Intro

I'm Geraldine! Read the "about me." . NASCAR weekend this year consisted of walking in the rain for over 2 hours, which in turn caused me to catch a little cold. For the past 2  nights this horrible cough has left me aching for some peaceful hours of sleep! & just because a blog isn't complete without a picture I will present you y'all,Tucker!
