You See What I’m Saying?

Yeah, so I can’t believe that I did this. I mean, I actually recorded myself on video and posted it. Me in all my – somewhat brushed hair that needs to be cut – glory. Thanks, Linda! I made up a new word too: visi—ting. That is the long version of the word. Yeah, and um, I rolled my eyes a lot too. … oh that insecurity issue! I’m not really insecure. At least I don’t think so. *shrugs shoulders* OH! That reminds me: please disregard the bad filming. I bought the camera that enhances the size of the forehead and nose. I don’t recommend it. Get one of those cameras that they use for music videos. ;)

And Darlene… I did this just for you so that you can see now that my face does indeed match my voice – or something like that. Darlene is one of my most favorite people ya’ll so I just had to tease but I will add that she is only one of many who say my face doesn’t match my voice! And yes, Amy, I said “ya’ll” and I exposed my Cajun voice to the world. Now everyone knows. Okay, so just the 34 people who actually read my blog will know but still.

This is all new to me. I’m used to talking to you from behind my keyboard where I can (hide) backspace (hide) and delete (hide) at will but noooo, you can’t (hide) do that with video. Be easy on me. Don’t you just love how the video stills at the most embarrassing spot that it possibly could? Maybe I should get that second cup of coffee now… and chocolate.

Disclaimer: My grandma has informed me that because I have more of her family’s genes (according to her – no test has proven this) that I should not tell people I am Cajun. She said I am a Canuck and so my accent is different from typical Cajun. *shakes head* Whatever, grandma. I’m from Louisiana. Who knows what my genetic make-up is.

good grief…

and because I couldn’t write better material myself…

Please ignore the discoloration of the boys commode. I have used Comet, bleach, and every other cleaner known to man on it but remains the same. It needs to be replaced. It is as old as the house and my house is old! Hey, maybe we can use if for a science experiment! Any ideas?

Amy, this was just priceless.

What a great idea. Now, I’m not that bold, not just yet!! Still getting my feet wet here in blogland.

And the video of your son, CAN I ADOPT HIM???? He is just adorable. I love him already.

Can’t wait to meet them all soon.

Blessings!!!

Those were great videos!!

As for saying “y’all” I don’t see anything wrong with it. I actually was surprised at how easy to understand your accent is. My hubby’s father (late) and stepmother live outside New Orleans and their accents were/are much stronger than yours.

Thanks for sharing.
