Revenge of the Vacation

After having my family come to see and help me out last month because of surgery and then going to see them for my father's promotion two weeks later, my house started to fall apart. My weak leg and lack of energy prompted me to forget my stringent home care routines (thank you FlyLady).

One afternoon, I braved the dangers beyond the couch so that I might document the horor which ensued. Be warned: the pictures you are about to see are saddening and maybe a little disgusting. If you are faint of heart, you should not proceed.


















Household cleaning supplies and a few of their buddies enjoying their new home atop the unused washer and dryer.


















After I cooked myself something to eat, I decided that my work was done. What you see here is about 4 days of pile up. The pots and pans were just rinced off whenever they were needed and therefore have several days of use baked in. Be thankful I'm not showing you the horror on the stove.


















After sitting in the living room for about 6 days without any attention, the bags just started to unpack themselves. Stuffed animals and clothing lept for their lives and slowly began to crawl across the floor towards the bedroom.

Welcome the Colonel

I went home this weekend. My father was promoted to Lieutenant Colonel! Yay! Since it was a special occasion on which I took several pictures, I will simply be sharing my new pictures. I hope you enjoy.

The former Major Cook

Dad and his family (yours truly is on the far right)

Lt. Col Cook and his best good friend Jeff Jacob

Tyndall in Black and White

These pictures were taken outside of a house on Tyndall. I think that the people who work/live in this house work with metal since outside they have some metal sculptures. Some of them are interesting, so I pulled out my trusty digital camera and took some snaps. Enjoy!



This last one was at a different house a little ways down. I just liked the way the towels were draped next to the brick sticking out of the stucco.
