Should I Feel Guilty


My girl has made it hard for me to go on this cruise as she is sleeping on the suitcases and it is too cute.

What Happens When You Don't Have A Life





Good Morning to all of the faithful followers of moi: This blog is for those who did not get an e-mail about our adventures in living the pioneer spirit. Yesterday we we sitting in the living room watching Big Bang Theory when the phone rang. It was our neighbor Jacob. He said "I have a Pig for You" The pictures I hopefully will post will explain it all. So much like the Jeff Foxworthy "Red Necks" we replaced the transmission hanging in the tree with a wild pig. Don and Flo and Joe came over and bippity boppity boo, it was skinned and taken to the processsor. Okay enough for now. Who knows what us without a life will get into today so as usual love to all and you all know the drill.

Good morning to all of the faithful followers of moI: It is a week til the cruise to Los Angeles begins. I am doing pretty well with the packing. D's suitcase is almost done and my stuff iis lined up. Still need to get my nails done and a hair cut. I will cut Mr.S's hair next week and put his mickeys in. Next Wednesday we will go to MCO and pick up our friends from California who are going on the cruise. Bob and Val are great people and we look forward to spending time with them. Okay I will try again as I lost my first blog in the black hole. I want everyone to have a wonderful New Year. As for New Year's resolutions, just look back at the previous year and if you feel there are areas that are lacking, just do the opposite of what you did and see if that works. Okay love to all and you konw the drill.

Quiet Weekend

Good evening to all of the faithful followers of moi: We had a quiet and uneventful weekend so there was not much to blog about. I put up my christmas lights and we played cards with Flo and Don. Sunday we ran over to the flea market for tomatoes and little plastic baggies for our vitamins for the cruise as I don't want to take all the bottles with us. Then we came home and watched the Giant Football game. At first I was ecstatic and then they fell apart. Going to close now as this blog seems lame even to me. lmao Love to all and hope everyone who reads this has a wonderful holiday season. You know the drill!!!
