Post will be coming

Sorry I haven't been posting in a while. My father is visiting so I have been a little busy. I have been told that I needed to post something that (and I quote) my blog was the highlight of their day!! Can you believe that? Someone actually enjoys reading a little about my life!!! Tomorrow Kiersten, dad, and I will be heading out for Arkansas to the Diamond Mine. Yes I hope to make Ryan and I rich. I have high hopes. I always do. At times that could be a good thing but in my life my high hopes always end very very bad.:) :) When Kiersten and I come back we will have pictures that I will post. I am excited. While in Alaska Ryan and I went Gold panning, it was a bunch of fun. This hunting for diamonds makes me excited. I guess some will never understand me! Anyways wish everyone a wonderful week. Take care and talk to you when we return..

FISHING FEVER!





The weather in Texas today was absolutely beautiful. Have you ever been outside and the temperature was perfect not to hot or cold? The wind blowing slow and the smell of the air indescribable? Today was that kind of day. I have always said it was Ryan's weather. I think of him on day's like today. As soon as I walked outside I had a smile on my face and tears in my eyes. It doesn't make a differences if he is deployed or here.
Seeing how today was perfect and last nights cat fishing didn't go as we had hoped we tried it again. Kiersten really wanted to catch a fish. This time her buddy's came along. Off to the fishing hole we went. Somehow I was the designated worm killer. Jenny wouldn't even touch the worms. HELLO!!!! It is a worm. We had baby wipes to wipe off the yuck. The sweetest thing was said from the little boy named Tanner. He came to me with his hook. I said "grab you a worm and bait that hook" he said so sadly "but they look so cute I just can't" Of course I couldn't say no. I expected to do it for Kaitlyn she is just cute like that. Jenny come on. You didn't do or say anything cute. Why did I bait your hook? The funny part was Jenny's was the one that I had to keep baiting. The rest of our worms managed to stay on. Maybe it is because they didn't come out there with a PINK open face fishing pole. The reason for buying it for the sol purpose of it being "pretty" There is NO pretty in fishing! As you can tell from the pictures Kiersten and Kaitlyn decided that walking in the lake was better than fishing. No one caught anything again. :(

GETTING OUR LINES WET





Kiersten and I decided last night that we wanted to do some cat fishing! We had such a good time. She loves the outdoors so well. My fishing tackle is in the storage building, Ryan's is here at the house. I debated going ahead and using the "man's" tackle. I didn't choose death. I made a trip to Wal-Mart. Kiersten said "Mom when we go fishing with daddy I catch fish. Every time I go fishing with just you I don't catch fish" I looked at her and said "well honey this time me and you are cat fishing, I should have used the bacon instead of the hot dogs" Then she so sweetly replied with "right, right tomorrow we will use the bacon and catch a catfish!"

A little of Lisa's touch



To the family, who has been asking to see this picture. The larger "thingy" is the tuna log. Ryan's aunt has this recipe for a tuna log. I decided to make it a while back one fine Sunday for some of the ladies I know. Of course I added a "Lisa's touch" to the recipe. I think I may have forever more tainted the family recipe!! Yeah my cookbook isn't going to get any bigger if I keep doing things like this to there recipes that they ever so nicely pass down to me:) ;)
The cupcake. Do you see a pattern with my food? Some call it skill, and others well they just plan call it sick. Anyways, one night I was being cool with the kids while Jenny was off doing what ever. Her daughter had this kick butt cupcake maker. After the children did what children do and made all their cupcakes and ate them. They ran outside to play. I wanted to make a cupcake. I was all alone:( I just jumped right in there and whipped me one right up. I saved it for Jenny to enjoy. She said it was the best thing she had ever tasted!! No actually it was hard for her to eat it. I have no clue why!! Anyone that would like me to bring anything to their BBQ's or pot locks just let me know, okay?

She is PISSED

Okay. As you all know I am employed, but many of you may not know that I have a second job! I am Mrs.Kris King's assistant and she is pissed! She works a LOT. She is always out of town for her job. Her house is under complete construction. It makes me so nervous and it isn't even my house. She has so much to do and a lot of stuff on her plate. I would never want to eat off her plate! I am here for her. I am making her appointments and trying to be at the house when she isn't able for the services. She has completely turn this Jacuzzi into my hands. Not only do I have to deal with Shawn and his men who seem to think that we are lesbians but now I am going to have to deal with the electrician whose days just seem to "fall apart" on him so he can't make our appointment. I am not making this lesbian thing any better with this company. I find myself on the phone with them saying stupid stuff like "we just want to do this as easy as possible, or Kris and I just want this Jacuzzi in as soon as possible, and we just want to get in it and relax after a hard day of work!!" Note to Lisa, SHUT UP. After all this is taken care of. I will have to make another appointment for the pool service man to come out and clean out the pool. We will not even say why we need that appointment to be made:):):) I hate to do bad at my work. This assistant thing is so overwhelming! I can't sleep at night thinking how I will take care of all of it. Roger is fixing to come home. I want so bad to have there house DONE!!! The contractors are working trying to get everything fixed. SHEWWWWWWWW Kris Roger I love you all. I know with all my heart that they love me TOO! Even though Roger makes fun of me, makes me cry, debates all my views, yells at me and does not hesitate to slam a door in my face I know deep down inside of that cold, cold heart I am able to warm it up just a little. No? Not even a little bit? I will keep up the good work!! I will make you proud of me!!!!!! YAY FOR ME!

To Be or Not To Be Lesbian

A week ago Sunday my girlfriend (ha ha) Kris and I attended this lawn and garden show in Temple. While there she purchased a SWEET hot tube. I was all excited getting into the tube pretending there was water in it. The sales associate actually said "man you would think there really was water in it" Anyways, before the sale she was talking to Kris and I in this weird manner. Yep she thought we was an "item". Kris very welled cleared that one up for us. I was laughing. Oh how Lisa was laughing. Kris wasn't laughing. She was more like - NO, we do NOT live together, we are NOT a couple bla, bla, bla it was funny. After that I started to pretend like I was some kind of an assistant to Mrs. Kris King. When she would pull off her coat I was all like " would you like me to hold that for you mam'' and I did a couple more things. Well of course I did. That is just how Lisa works. That poor lady. Kris bought the Jacuzzi. Thank you Kris. Friday Kris, well Mrs. King had to work. Like a good friend who wanted to get in the tube on Friday night. I was there so it to be installed. Hours later the delivery men arrived with it. They was staring at me in this weird way. A way that was familiar. I don't know kind of like the way the sales associate was staring/talking to us. Finally he couldn't hold back any longer. He was all noisy and this dude just came out and asked. Is this "our" first hot tube purchase. Does Mrs. King and I enjoy hot tubes, have we been in them together before.. So I about spit out my drink and I kind of said a bad word. " @#$% NO we are not Lesbians, we have husbands which are both deployed together, we are real good friends who take care of each other and not in that way" then he started giggling. I was cracking up. Kiersten was rolling her eyes like she knew what the men was implying laughing along with us. He said "sorry, I just thought" I then told him that if I was I would be the man of the relationship. How strange not even in a weeks time period two different incidents being questioned if you was a lesbian. The tube couldn't finish being installed for what ever reasons, this company is going to call me to make an appointment cause Kris works out of town. They asked for my name and I couldn't hold it back. I said "Lisa, Lisa King" then he is looking at me all cocked eyed. I never told him anything different!!!! I think this week I will just stay at the house. For real I think it is hard enough for Ryan to put up with me many of the times. Could you imagine if I was married to a woman? Oh I just about threw up on that last sentence. Kris I love you an all but no, I just don't think our relationship would work out if we was to get married. You would sure take care of me though!!!!! You would be my Sugar mama!!!!
