Monday Roll Call
Hello everyone
I hope everyone had a good Mother's Day. Mine was good. I even managed to stop off at Whole Foods (since I was out that way) and picked up some yummy fruit. I had a nice visit with everyone. I ate wayyyy too much cake and will have to exercise all week to make up for way I ate!!! But Brenda makes this cake that tastes so yummy. I probably gained a pound or two. We talked to Amanda. This time everyone gathered around and asked her a bunch of questions...like what is you favorite meal there, what is the weather like...that kind of thing. Some of the questions and answers in spanish. Everyone agreed her spanish is getting better and better. I got home at 10pm...but I had laundry to do!!!! So I got to bed late!!!
I found out Amanda sent me something for Mother's Day but it just hasn;t come yet!!! Amanda was very bummed I didn't get it in time for Mother's Day. And I told her that just knowing that I am going to get something is exciting...so don't feel bad. Plus I got to talk to her. But when I do this Skype thing for the family I make it very brief because I talk to her all of the time and I want her to be able to visit with the people she hasn't talk to in a long time.
Today I am going to work and workout.and that will be it for me.
Well I have to get going. Have a great day everone...see ya later..bye
Good Morning,
We had a quiet Mothers Day, since we got together with the kids on Saturday.
Hubert has been working on a recycle project.He used the frame of the old grill as the base of a portable work table with wheels. This way, he has plently of room when he is done grilling to put the cooked food. The best part is, it didn't cost him anything. He used recycled wood on it too. We want to stain it with redwood stain, but it needs to be warmer.
My project for this week is to clean up the back yard for the summer. We will see if it gets done.
I have no real plans for this week.
Have a great day,
Hugs

Good Morning Everyone
It should be a fairly nice day but lots warmer tomorrow! But the sun is out. So that makes Monday more bright.
I am in big trouble. I looked at the cats at Pet Smart Yesterday. There were some really cute ones. When I got home I went to our local shelter page and fell in love. The have a Bengal cat mix. I have always wanted a Bengal cat and it is female and Rick wants another little girl. Uh oh. I am calling tonight. 
Just call me crazy cat lady.
It looks to be a pretty uneventful week for me. No special plans other than the dentist tomorrow. We enjoyed eating out last night. We went to the Olive Garden.
I hope everyone has a beautiful day!

Hello My Goslings,
Have you been seeing the baby geese everywhere???? Oh my, they are so cute. Spring is here in spite of being 42 degrees right now :(
It was a long day yesterday, but it is always so nice to hang out with my FIL. He is a very nice man who takes his situation of being home-bound rather well. he never complains. I am the new proud owner of a bromeliad. Does anyone know anything about these plants? It has a large single lavender flower. I hope my cats dont eat it.
Crystal, how lovely to be able to skype with your daughter. I know the anticipation of getting something she chose for you has to be exciting.
Lisa, I find yard work keeps me pretty busy. I wish I had made my yard more of work free zone early on, but I never did and perhaps will slowly work on that. Right now, I am the weed warrior. I am not winning that battle so far. I use apple cider vinegar and dish soup to kill the weeds. It works great but there are always new weeds to spray every morning.
Nancy, you can never have too many cats in my humble opinion. Once they outnumber the humans its a moot point.
Randy, it sounds like in spite of the over-looked staple you are mending well....a blessing.
Semi, I hope you continue to rest and mend. What a great summer you will have getting skinny.
Connie, I am sure you are having a good time doing something you love.
I am off to my first psych appointment today about my "issues". I am looking forward to meeting this therapist.
Have a great day!
Hugs,
Sharon
Good morning,
We are about to head to Madison to the eye doctor. I don't know if I posted that I am going to have a blepharorplasty in June. Both of my eyelids droop enough that Medicare will pay for it because it impedes my vision. This is the pre-op workup. I would like to wear contacts again but my eyelids won't allow it now. I have worn contacts since age 17 and these glasses drive me NUTS. So off to Madison we go. We'll have a nice lunch somewhere and see the doc.
Mother's Day we went to Social for a late lunch and met some friends and ended up hanging out there most of the afternoon. It was such fun! Then later I talked to my son and daughter. I called my mom but she wasn't in her apartment. So I'll call her again tonight. She probably didn't see the light blinking on the message button.
Have a good day and enjoy the sun!
Connie
