I'm a mama who likes to wear Patchouli. How's that for simple. What is Patchouli? It's that "dirty hippie" smell you used to come across at a Grateful Dead concert or maybe at the airport when you passed the Hare Krishna. It's a scent that has come to symbolize freedom to me, in every sense of the word. It's an oil that I wear to express myself, but I reserve it for Freedom Fridays. ***AS OF OCTOBER 2012, I WILL NO LONGER UPDATE THIS BLOG***
About Me
- trayceetee
- I grew up in Small Town, Nebraska, feeling sheltered by the 'safety' of it all. When I moved to Big City, Nebraska, I felt like the world was my oyster. However, I soon felt like there was much more for me Out There... I moved to Chicago, thinking I was done with this 'little' state. It took living in a true big city to realize that Lincoln is just an oversized small town... and it's where I belong! I'm blessed to have a wonderful husband who understands me and all my oddities. My kids are young enough to still think I'm cool. Beyond that, who cares, right?

These are from our trip to one of the nearby Pumpkin Patches... the girls and I went on Halloween Day, since they didn't have school that week. It was SO COLD--I felt terrible, not having put them in their heavy coats. It honestly hadn't been that cold in Lincoln, but this place is just outside of Omaha and it was freezing cold and windy and just plain yucky. But there was no shortage of kids there! And the girls didn't care. There was one section with pirates, and each girl posed in those shackle things--notice how they're each making their naughty, villain faces! All I can say is I'm glad we had two free tickets to get in--I hate to be a poopy-pants consumer, but Vala's Pumpkin Patch is highly overrated: it's too expensive, and you don't even get a free pumpkin with the price of admission or anything. It does cover a huge patch of land, but it seems like you can't swing a dead cat without hitting a snack bar, diner or gift shop! Money is the language they speak there, for sure! The girls didn't enjoy it as much as the nearer Roca Berry Farm, either. Lesson learned--and again, good thing we only had to pay for one of us to get in! Still, cute pictures!!!
