Sunday Is The Day of Rest

Well, not really. I did (5) loads of laundry. Made Pina Coladas for my Mother and also took one to Sharon. Read a book, took a nap, and now I am not sleepy. Talked to my NYC son. He gave me the good news that he is coming home for a few days in July.

Saturday was a nice day. Went to the grocery store, which I hate to do. I go at 0715 because it is not crowded and is much quicker. On Saturday afternoon my husband and I went shopping,
Best Buy, Circuit City, and I also got a pedicure. After all that we went to Houlihan's for lunch and we even had dessert, CREME BRULEE, my very favorite.

Tomorrow I go for my physical, really looking forward to that.

On Saturday my Beach son and I "watched " the Preakness together. I always enjoy our little routine of the horse races.

On a very special note I just want to say that I have the most wondeful sons in all the world.
I am so very proud to be their Mother.

Thanks to all my family for all the years of joy, tears, sadness but most of all for the love.
I could not do it without you. You are the Sunshine of my life.

Now back to the weekly grind. Love, Laughter, and Happiness to all.

This & That

Well we finally made it to Dixie Crossroads for lunch on Sunday. The food was good, but I have had better shrimp at Red Lobster and Houlihans. All the other food looked tastier than mine.
I need to go back and try something different.

Map Quest gave us the wrong directions so we were about 10 minutes late. Maybe someone should tell the Map Quest people to redo their directions.

American Idol was good last night. Katherine did a superb job on Somewhere Over The Rainbow. I don't think she will win but she really has a nice voice. I think they all have a chance but I believe Taylor will win.

Not sure what I thought of Grey's Anatomy. Is Izzy really gone? She looked gorgeous in her prom dress. Not sure I want Meredith and McDreamy back together, oh well.

Work is slow today so I'm having a nice easy day.
Love and happiness to all my family and friends.

Science Center - Family Photo

What a nice looking family photo. I really enjoyed the trip to the science center. Of course you can learn even at my age. Thanks for a delightful day.

Prices

Well let me tell you about my dinner at Sam Snead's last Thursday. We were sitting on the patio and it was hot and really not my idea of fun but I enjoyed being with my friends for dinner. The prices were outrageous. I had two appetizers, a bottle of water ($2.50) and very small dessert. My bill including tip was $30.80. Not sure that is exactly my cup of tea price wise, however we spent over three hours talking and just having a good time.

The kids came over yesterday and we spent a nice time together. Charlene, Charles, and I went to the Orlando Science Center. It was really cool. The Imax theater is really cool but when I walked in I got dizzy as did Charlene. The movie was cool and it showed how life probably does exist on other planets.

Tiger got the AC fixed in their car while we were out learning about Science.

At 1800 we watched the Kentucky Derby. It has become a yearly ritual for us to pick our horse and see who picks the winner. This year Charlene, Bobby, and Mac picked the winner and Tiger, Charles, Granny, and I did not. We then watched Nascar racing and then went to bed at midnight.

Charlene did me a huge favor today!!! She helped me clean out my (2) hall closets.I really appreciate all the help. You can actually close the doors without pushing things to get them closed. Thanks for all the help.

After lunch they had to go back beach side, it was a very nice visit and we enjoyed having them visit. Now back to the weekly grind. Have a super special week and love to all my family and friends.

Kai

OK I finally got to meet Kai. He is the cutest little guy. Grandma McD even got to feed the little darling. I could see the love between him and his Momma. What a beautiful family. Kai looked for his Momma when he would hear her voice. Can't wait to see what Uncle Bobby thinks of him.

Then I watched AMC - I want to be Kendall - Zach is a real hottie, so glad they finally got together. Maybe Dixie and Ryan could become a couple, they looked cute together, stranger things have happened.

Happiness to all, have a great night, keep blogging.

American Idol

OK I finally did it. I voted for Taylor. I just don't like the screeching that Chris does. I find Taylor really entertaining. He gives you the whole package. Katherine is also a winner, she has a great voice and I just like her. I think Elliott or Paris should go home tonight, really Chris because I don't like the way he seems to force his sound. I know I am probably wrong but these old ears like what they like.

Watched What About Brian and that show is really cute. How does anyone have that much sex in so short a time, no way Jose!!! Can't believe next week is the season finale it just started.

Did you see Hope & Faith? Can't believe the hair on Kelly Ripa- that was really ugly.
Her husband must need the work really bad to play such a stupid character in the first half hour last night.

Well I must start my work day, it is 0455 so I must turn on the smile and get to work. Have a super day to all my friends and family.

M O N E Y

Why is it that we never have enough money for all the things we want? It would be nice to just be able to go shopping and not have to worry how much you spend. They say money doesn't buy happiness but sometimes I wonder. It sure makes me happy when there seems to be enough to pay all the bills, buy groceries, go out and have some fun and have a little left over just in case you need it.

This is my first full week back at work. I think I like vacation better, no I know I like vacation better. Thank goodness I like the people that work with me.

Tonight is American Idol. I think Chris will win but not sure I want him to be the American Idol. Taylor grows on me week by week but don't think he could be the winner. Elliott has the voice but not the "charisma". Paris is not mature enough to be the top singer so that leaves Katherine. We'll see. Hopefully Paula won't be incoherent this week. Ryan stop talking so much and cool the sarcasm towards Simon, enough is enough.

My older son and his family might come to Orlando this week end, of course if the waves are good Orlando is out for him. He loves to surf.

Hope everyone has a super week and enjoys the beautiful weather we are having right now.
