Yesterday was MLK Day and today was Daisy Day! I totally planned on sleeping in a little bit today to enjoy my last day off of work for awhile… but… yep, you guessed it I was awake already. Around 8am JP brought me a cup of coffee in bed and a bagel as I was [...]
I have been picking my brain for what picture to take and add to my final post of 2010. I can’t come up with anything so I decided to take it in a different direction. 2010 was a big year for me. I went through a lot of changes and I learned a lot this year. I also [...]
I had a 1/2 day off of work today and as I headed home this afternoon I was trying to decide what I wanted to do. I decided that today I would do something I have been putting off for a long time… Lily’s bedroom. Since JP is out of town for a couple days I [...]
I have know Amanda M for a very long time. When I met her we both lived in WA. She now lives in NC, and I of course in TX. I was on facebook today (that is right people… send me a friend request) and I saw that she had a snow day from work. She posted a bunch of [...]
I played two games of softball today with Face Down Bats Up. We won both games and won the championship. It was somewhere between 40 and 50 degrees outside… burrrrr!
We saw this sign at Taco Cabana today. Kinda makes you wonder why they even have to post it!
The company that I work for is a big supporter of United Way. Every year to go along with our United Way campaign we do Days of Caring. Our company gives us 8 volunteer hours a year and most people use it for Days of Caring. You can read more about volunteering here. The team [...]
Would you wear a t-shirt that has my website url on it? Something kinda like this. I am tossing around ideas in my head. If you would wear it what color do you think it should be and what do you think it should say? I was thinking something like “I ♥ www.curiousdaisy.com“
A couple days ago we decided we would both take the day off work for a “Mental Health Day”. It was awesome. We slept in until like 9am! JP got up and made coffee. Then we both surfed the internet for awhile. After we showered and got ready we went to Tequila Taco (thats my own [...]
When I woke up this morning I was excited about our first two kickball games of the season. I was also excited about softball playoffs. It seems like it does not happen very often but it rained today. Both kickball and softball were canceled. So instead of putting on my shorts and cleats I put on [...]
I updated the simply random tab above. Go check it out. If you have one to share please email me at daisy@curiousdaisy.com
There are times when I can make it through an entire day without taking a single picture or without any idea of what I am going to post on my website. Today was the opposite of that. Today it seems like every time I decided what to post about something else post worth would happen. At the [...]
We are slowly getting things put where they belong in our new house. Today it was decided that this would go well in the master bathroom. We will use the inside to store bath products. JP bought this a few years ago at a store called Second Use off of 1st Avenue in Seattle. Here is a [...]
We have a guest in our picture today! This is Iris. I have asked Iris a few times if she would be my picture of the day. Every single time she says “oh yeah where is your camera?”. Like I said… Here is Iris!!
… how many people can you fit in the trunk of a Grand Marquis? For now, only two!
Sometimes I post things to this website via my iPhone. This is one of those times. Riding in the truck on the way to the grocery we were messing with the camera on the phone and this one made us laugh!
I have a few websites that I like to visit pretty much daily, www.failbook.com is one of them. Although I think people might post fake stuff sometimes just to get on there, I believe that some of it is real. I laughed so hard when I saw this one! Hit me with your pet shark!
Here is a picture of Lily and I waiting patiently! Ok maybe not so patiently for JP to say it’s time to go!
Just like me Lily likes to ask questions, lots of questions. She knows when you drive a stick shift you move it from the one to the two and so on. This week we are driving a rental car. She looked at the shifter and asked why I didn’t have to move it as often [...]
So many thing I could say right now. It was so innocent at first. One thing on my mind… BREAKFAST TACOS! Nothing would make up for the fact that I crashed JP’s porsche today… nothing. I am not even sure that he believes me yet. Poor JP. I seriously thought I was going to die [...]
After work today I went to get my hair cut at Salon Desires on Blanco Rd. I will totally admit that I have been pulling gray hairs out for a couple years now. JP always gives me a hard time about it telling me leave them alone. Today my stylist mentioned them and I asked her [...]
Today was an ugly day for Daisy Poo so no pictures were taken. Trust me… you do not want to know what she was doing all day Monday and Tuesday! We are truly trying to figure out who poisioned Daisy and Steve… seriously they were both on their death bed. JP made a joke about our [...]
Mothers Day is the best! Amanda did not believe me when I told her I was going to publish this photo!
When I got home tonight this was on my door… YIKES! How many people do I claim? I should claim 57.. that’s only if you count the house plants.
Today I showed Lily that we can make videos from my iphone. Here is her response HotDiggityDog. Then she wanted to show her appreciation for everyone coming to our website HiThisIsLily. Hope you enjoyed them, more videos to come!
When JP got home today he said that he had a t-shirt for me. I kinda made fun of it because I knew what it was. Then he asked me why I didn’t respond to a question he text to me two times today. I told him it was only one time. He made a [...]
About a year ago JP turned me on to the hair products at Origins. If you have never smelled Clear Head Mint Shampoo or Conditioner do yourself a favor, go find the closest Origins store and smell it. The first few times I tried it I only used it because I ran out of the shampoo [...]
This is too funny not to share. I always take Lily to her dad around 6 o’clock on Saturdays. I was on my way back home when I got a phone call from JP. He was asking when I would be home. Then he told me he went to check out the shed in our [...]
JP and I went on a date for the first time in a long time tonight. We started at Wildfish and then ended up at Stonewerks. A good time had by both of us!
I love the fact that you can buy pop in an 8oz can. I would say that at least 8 out of every 10 cans of 12oz pops I drink don’t get finished. I also love Big Red!
Here are the girls, heading off for fun and sun… Yikes!
This is seriously random, but I picked the letter T and walked through the house trying to find things that started with it. You would be amazed how hard this was! What I did find is a teacup planter! And a tiger! And a telephone! And a bottle of tequila! Mission accomplished!
Click on the picture below!! You can see this and more on www.theoatmeal.com This is the first time I have actually made a picture link to something all by myself!! Ohhh loyal readers .. now I plan on planting hidden links in my future posts!!
The last three times Lily and I have gone to the grocery store a “Customer with Child Parking” spot has been open. There are three of them that I know of. I still wonder if every time I park there if she is considered a child. Here is the dictonary.com definition of child 1. a person [...]
Of that many things that showed up when JP moved here this is one of them. A dog rocking thing. Lily loves it and I think its pretty cool too. Yesterday I told JP that I thought it was pretty cool and he said “Yes, the kids usually love it.” It didn’t dawn on me [...]
I found a wooden box with drawers in a box that I was unpacking today. It had this tag on it and it made me smile! JP brings me coffee in bed almost every morning.
I swear we use to have one of these when I was a kid. I told my sister Vanessa about it today and she didn’t remember! Does anyone else remember having one of these when they were a kid?
Today is my brother Alex’s birthday! Happy Birthday Alex!
Nicole and Zoe (pronounced Zoey) came to visit us today. I have seen so many babies and pregnant people lately that it makes me …. OMG … want to make sure my birth control is working!
Do you see the Monkeys? How about now?
I attempted to french braid Lily’s hair for the first time today. I am still in the learning phase but this is what it looked like. I can’t quite figure out how to finish it off … next time it will look better!
Yesterday at work I really wanted a pop. I needed $1.35 for the vending machine so I dug through my purse but all I could come up with was $1.30. All the cash I had was a $5 bill. Have you ever put a $5 bill in a vending machine? You always get the change back [...]
