black friday..........

was CRAZY!!!!!! Me, Jessica, Michele, Courtney, Cody, Mom and Dad met up at Wal-Mart. Of course there were sooooo many people. That was to be expected. This year I was after the 40" tv's.  And I got them!!! When we got there, I went and got in line for the tv's. Then after Mom and Dad made it back, we put Mom in charge of waiting. Since she just had a knee replacement a month ago.... and her ankles are not the best..... we made sure she was in a wheelchair for the looonnnngggg wait. Then the rest of us split up to get what was on Jessica's list for 10pm. After that we then split up for the midnight sales. Mom was still in the frozen section waiting for the tv's.  Every now and then one of us would check up on her, and Courtney was even taking her magazines to read while waiting. I do have to say I came close to feeling scared about getting trampled. Things were pretty tight for a while. I say that people are CRAZY..... but then why am I there??  :-)  Once Michele went and got us pops. She had an extra.... and even sold it to someone waiting. Somebody ought to take that into thought next year. Make money instead of spending it. Even worse than trying to get our sales was trying to pay for them. The lines were just terrible! I'm thinking that we will skip out next year..... but we said that last year too. Guess we'll see. It WAS fun!

Thank you Mom, Dad, Courtney and Cody!!!!!!!!!  We couldn't have done it without you! Love you guys!!!!

happy thanksgiving......

Happy Birthday Momma!!

Guess what??? I did it! Four tickets to see. . . .

 

I'm soooo excited! I seen Martina McBride when she first starting singing. She was the opening act for Garth Brooks. I've always wanted to see George Strait. And now we get too!!!

early??

are you CRAZY?? That is the look that Jorge gave me this morning. I decided to get up and get going when Roger left for work. Which we all know is pretty early. And especially early for my day off. But I do have to say that I have gotten soooooo much done. One of the things I am working on today is taking my front door outside and painting the inside part of it. Primer..... base coat...... top coat and clear coat. A beautiful day!! I sure can handle the nice weather, but I know that winter has to be around the corner soon. Then last night Roger and I was working on the wall in my stairwell. I ran out of glue dots, so when I get more and get it finished..... I will post some pictures. Cool idea if I don't say so myself!!! 

Happy Week!!!!!!

Wind is not blowing.........

and the sun is shining!! What a beautiful Sunday!

Yesterday the wind blew. And blew hard! We pretty well stayed in all day. Roger did some trimming on the front door. Me.... ummmmm...... :-) There is always tomorrow. 

This last few weeks has kind of been a blur. Trying to get a few things done around here before winter sets in.  My Dad and Roger did get my doors all done. And Roger did get the front door all trimmed. Just have one more piece that I need to pick up and then it will be completely finished. And if I don't say so myself, looks pretty darn good. Now Roger needs to get going on my pantry. I can't wait for that. The one thing I don't have a lot of in my house is extra storage, so this is going to be great!

Last Wednesday I had a doctor appointment with my rheumatologist.  Good news is that we are making some headway. Bad news is that he does not think that my liver is filtering my meds correctly. So...... I have now put my big girl panties on and have learned how to give myself shots. And in my tummy no less. I was pretty worried the first time I stuck that needle in, but it turned out not really being that bad. I think I can do this. Especially if it makes things better.

Back to the beautiful day...... Jorge is sleeping on the back of the couch, Roger is working and I have spent part of the afternoon planting bulbs. My Dad gave me this cool bit that I can put in Roger's drill.... and zip zip..... drop the bulb in.... and cover it up. That's all! Can't wait to see what all comes up. Sooooo easy! Think I will be buying LOTS of bulbs next year. I have also made some chocolate chip cookies. Boy... will Roger be surprised!
