**What's new Sunday. . .

Hey Margo!

My birthday is actually tomorrow.  Me, my friend, and Queen Elizabeth's mother.... 

But happy birthday to you mom and happy anniversary to your kids!

While growing up, I shared my birthday with our family dog, Coquette, a very spoiled larger poodle.  Her birthday would have been today but I got a birthday cake and she always got a matching cupcake.

Thanks for the good wishes.

Ahhhhh, slept well, almost to 7:00 which is really sleeping in.  Don't get to do that very often, so it felt good.

Today is another record breaking hot day....expected to make it to 104, which is NOT good with the AR humidity.  Everyone will be very drippy!  I do need to go out to the grocery store for a few things, then back into the cool house. The grass is wayyyyy too high, but it's too hot to have Gary go out and mow.  Oh well, it will still be there next weekend when this heat wave is supposed to break.

We had a very nice afternoon yesterday. We hadn't seen much of each other so I got off work early and we headed out to a movie. Saw Han**** with Will Smith,  we both liked it.  It was a bit different than we thought it would be,  a love story actually, quite enjoyable.  Then we went to this little seafood restaurant for dinner. They serve Mexican shrimp ****ails which are amazing. Lots of protein, some good fat from the avocado and plenty of spice.  Yummmmmmm

Anyway, better run and get to the store before it's too hot to think about. Love you all!  Have a great day

Susan, As my Aunt Jane from NE AR would say: "Bless your pea picking heart!" Can't even imagine Arkansas and 104. 90 about does me in there with the humidity. You'll just melt away into a little puddle! When it's hot I get out at about 6am to do Wal Mart or whatever is open early. Then it's kind of like cold weather; I'm inside during the rest of the day.

Susan......You just tell Gary to tell anyone that cares about his grass...that you should not cut it when the weather is hot and dry [actually without rain not humid] it is healthier for it...Love, M

HIJACK......

Judy....sounds like that friend of Rick's is no friend at all. What an a$$!!  I would stay clear of him and for no reason NEVER be alone with him. I wouldn't trust what he might try to do. The JERK!!!

Sounds like the pary was a really good time. I am glad, you need those fun times. It is nice to know that everyone has been so accepting of you. But then, why wouldn't they be...you are a sweetheart.

Good luck at your job today...I will be thinking of you and sending a little prayer your way.

Love ya....hugs.....connie d

hi connie...trust me i will NEVER be around that jerk alone or with rick ever again....for meeting me for the first time he was a total ass and he sure didn't impress me at all!!!! i have no idea how rick can be friends with this jerk!!! they are so totally different i see no connection at all!!!!

ricks family is so nice i am grateful that they accepted me so warmly!!! and thanks for the compliment too!! you are a sweetheart also!!! (((connie)))

thanks for wishing me goodluck today for work...i might need it...LOL will feel funny not being able to wear earrings!!!! LOL

hugs

 

Of course I feel like I know how to choose friends! Sometimes I wonder about my husband's choice also. He is much more tolerant than I am or maybe it's a guy thing.  I would want nothing to do with that jerk either. Being drunk is no excuse. Perhaps someone should video tape him and present it to him as a "gift."  Probably wouldn't make any difference. Jerks often think they are just clever entertainers that everyone enjoys.

karen this guy is a musician in the works lets say...he has a contract that he just signed to have a CD made of his music...i have no clue who is gonna buy it but i am sure there are people out there that will love it...and if its anything like what he was singing while we were with him......  it stinks!!!!!!!!!! but then the younger generation loves that trash i guess...and get this...this guy is almost 50!!!! he has a couple "gigs" coming up here at the end of the month and i hope i don't have to go see him play!!!!    lol i love these new icons...lol and as for video tapng him...nope it just feeds his ego...he was sitting at the bar and out his feet on it!!!!! he made the bartender take his picture doing that!!! like i said i want no part of him at all...sober or drunk...broke or famous...he isn't for me in my group of friends!!!

hugs

Good Morning Karen and Everyone!!

I slept in until about 8:00AM and it felt great!! That just never happens.....I guess I really needed it.

I  had a pretty quiet evening last night. I was going to go out dancing but decided to just stay home and hang outside and chat with my neighbors instead. There were at least 20 of us. I really enjoyed that time. It was so relaxing and fun.

It looks cloudy and rainy right now. If it rains the races will be canceled for this evening. I will just have to wait and see how it goes.

Have a wonderful day everyone. I am praying for those in need......especially Darlene today!

Love you all...(((((HUGS))))) connie d
