Saturday Roll Call

Well, we woke up to rain and it is supposed to rain here and in Rock City, 80% chance both places all day for rain. What a bummer. Lord knows that this area could use some rain but why did He have to pick this weekend?

We are still going to head that way towards Dawn's and see how it goes with the weather - if it continues to come down we might head north to the Dells a little early.

What is all going on with the rest of you for the day and weekend? We will be in WI until Tuesday morning. I will not have   access until we get home. Hope everyone has a safe and productive weekend.

Good morning Chris and the rest of Illinois!

Yes, it is raining here.....this is a first.  It hasn't rained on A Day in Rock city in anyone's memory.  That is OK.  The "show must go on".  Now....I just checked weather.com and it says that although it is to rain this morning, it will change to "scattered storms" by noon, and to partly cloudy by 3:00 pm.  All will not be washed out.

Now.....will anyone show up for my parade????  We will see.  I am going to continue on as usual and hope for the best.  I'm thinking a few prayers can't help either.

If it does continue, I still have lots of food, and we will party here at the house, so no big loss.  The front porch is dry and welcoming.

That's what's in my basket this morning!

good morning everyone!  sorry about being MIA this week.  been busy busy busy!  =)  i uploaded pics of my girls onto my profile, if you wanted to peek. =)  my littlest baby turns 1 tomorrow which is such an amazing blessing!!!  she was a preemie and so tiny and we were really worried about her for probably the first 9 months of her life.  it started with whether or not she'd survive, to whether or not she'd gain weight or have to go back to hospital, to whether or not she had suffered lasting disabilities.  i've never been more thankful to say shes 100% healthy!!!  =)  and happy and finally gaining some weight.   my oldest baby will be 4 next sunday.  so, we've got a few birthdays coming up! 

weight wise, my scale says i gained 4 pounds this week.  i'm calling it BS and claiming it as muscle.  =) mainly because i've been kicking booty on the elliptical and do about an hour every day.  i also did a quick check of my hip & waist measurements and they definetly went down so far this month so that helped to keep my head screwed on straight. 

this weekend is actually going to be pretty quiet.  next weekend we're having a big bday party for both my girls at moms house.  still can't believe she's 1 already!  lol  this year has FLOWN!  have a great weekend everyone and stay dry!

Good morning Christine, it is raining here too this am. sure hope it stops for the rock city days
we are planning on coming, just need to go to the store and get something to bring, still don't know what that will be.
other than that not much else going on, So I will see thoughts of you that will be at Dawn's house later.

Hey all.  Nothing going on here, trying to get some work done around the house, and then out to the pool.  We have had some rain here, but supposedly it has stopped.  I have some beautiful pics of my nephew and nieces that I need to download to show you all.  Tomorrow is church, and more pool.  Catch up with you all later.

Good morning friends!

We have already been out and about. Kay's car had both brake signals on when we got in last night so we drove mine and took hers in this AM. I wasn't sure her brakes would work at all but we got there safely. I'm going to hang out at the knitting shop this morning and have some other work later.

Have a great day!

Good Morning my Illinois Friends!

I am taking it easy this morning and catching up on the boards.  My great news is that I FINALLY broke my month long stall.  Of course I had to do it by getting a stomach bug and spending 2 days  but I will take it any way I can get it.  It promises to be a quiet weekend which I look forward to.  Hope everyone has a great weekend.   

Hi all, I'm taking a couple minutes to myself while I can.  Hope you all have a great day, we'll be leaving soon for another whirlwind day with my sister in law. She leaves for home tomorrow am. Hugs, Paulette

Hey Paulette,
You better rest up this week!!!!! But wait till after your SIL leaves tomorrow!!!!! Just wait till I get there. If your back starts to hurt. Ill massage it!!!!!
Anyway I just got back from touristing around here. We went to Madiera Beach and had some lunch. Then drove back home. I also looked in some shops. They all had the same touristy things to buy!!!!!
I wanted to go out on a boat to go and watch for Dolphins but it was 50.00 a person!!!!! I thought that was to exspensive for 2 people!!!!!
Hope everyone is doing well. Carla
