Lots of Book Reading

I have been busy reading, reading, and more reading. I think in the last month I have read 40 or so books. It is a shame that I can't find a job reading. How nice would it be to make money doing something that I really enjoy. There is a half price book store about 20 mins down the road. If I can't read for a living maybe I could work there part time.  I am however concerned that my entire paycheck would go to more books. HAHAHA    Back to reading!!!! I guess you could say I'm a bookworm.

New Mattress

That's right sports fans we have a new mattress. No more waking up with shoulders out of socket, hips popping, and back aching. I actually slept for 4 hours straight. Can you hear the angels singing?  AAAHHH...  We purchased the mattress at sleep experts.  The old mattress went into the guest room so that when we have company they will be able to sleep on a king size mattress. I might have to put the sheets on short so nobody stays too long....HAHAHA.  Thanks Hubby extraordinaire for all your hard work and buying me a new mattress. You are the best!!!!

Heat Wave

We are on day 21 with 100+ weather and no end in sight. I watered the foundation this morning. Yes I did say water the foundation. I guess in this part of the country the ground dries up so much that it pulls away from the foundation and causes cracks.  So to keep that from happening I get the hose out and spray spray spray.  Let the watering begin!!!!

Car Trip

I have had a request about the 10 hours in the car with my big sis. We went to the hood for the pick up. Let's just say hubby got out the police issue to make sure that we were safe...... Then on to the first b-day for princess in Little Rock, AR. I had so much fun catching up with big sis. We talked about anything and everything. What a great b-day party we went to!! Princess was cute as ever and big brother was fun to watch helping "sister" blow out the candle.  Are you ready for another road trip???? I am!!!! Had a great time with you......

Friend Visit

Oh what a wonderful week I've had. I got to spend it with one of my closest friends "C".  I picked her up last Wednesday. We went to the Stockyards, Water Gardens, the Zoo, my favorite thai place, Dealy plaza and some other great places. It was tourist time in the household.  I even convinced my hubby to go with us yesterday. He was a great paparizzi picture taker. It was sad to put her on the plane this morning but alas she has her own family.  They were missing her. Hope everyone has a great day and many friends!!!!

Home Town Parade

Saturday morning we went with the neighbors and their kids to the local parade. It was so much fun to watch the fire trucks roll by. The favorites of the parade were the Elvis's on the motorcycles. Black Elvis even had a stars and stripes cape on!!!! They kind of reminded me of the shriner's and their motorcycles like when we were growing up. Scootering up and down the streets, circling and honking the horns. What fun was had by all!!!

He's Baacckkkk!!!!

Yep you guessed it. Peeping Tom Bunny is back. I happened to be looking out my window and was startled to see eyes looking back at me. Then I realized that peeping tom bunny was the culprit.  I have missed getting to see the bunnies because of the fence fire. I guess they are now coming back. I am so excited. I think I will go get some carrots so that the bunnies can celebrate their return with me!!!! Oh and I forgot to mention that I saw my first Texas hummingbird this morning. It was drinking the nector from the crepe myrtles in the front of the house. Guess I need to go to wally world to get a feeder for it. Want to keep the wildlife happy!!!

Time with Hubby

I am getting to spend time with my hubby!!! How great it is to have him home. We are sitting on the couch watching some tv before he goes to work. He is already back to work at the PD. Days off are going to be Mon. and Tues. Looks as if we will be planning trips and such around his days off. We will see how this all plays out.
