It’s so beautiful

Gosh I found the most beautiful little sea side community down in the Florida pan handle. It’s called NatureWalk at Seagrove. It is right on the Gulf of Mexico and the beaches are like pure white snow. I know I will probably not move that far away from my family, but when I went down there to pick up some supplies I needed, I just had to look. My kids would love Nature Walk. It’s one of those gated communities that has it’s own recreation center with two pools.

My parents keep talking about retiring to Florida one day. I brought back some pamphlets of Nature Walk at Seagrove for them to look at. Mom fell in love with it just from reading about it and what I told her. She grilled me on everything. Dad was a little more reserved, but he did like it as well. I think we might go back down together to have another look.

So much fun

We had so much fun this weekend. We went down to the creek and made a day of it, complete with a picnic lunch. There was even a rope swing for us to jump off into the water with. The kids absolutely loved it. I am so glad that winter is over now and we can have some outdoor fun. We are definitely a family that loves the water and the sunshine. The kids are raring to go next weekend already and I can’t wait either. I am going to hit the store for some water games to take with us. I know the kids really love them, because they wear them out by the end of the summer.

A few new things

I bought a few new things to decorate my house with, decorative accessories for the living room that make it pop. I really like it when I am able to buy stuff for my house that make it more than just a place to live. It is rapidly turning into a show place that I can be proud of. I have worked really hard on this house. I want my children to be proud of their home and not embarrassed by it. I know how that feels because when we were kids, we were very poor for a while. I never invited anyone to that house.

I have found some very affordable home decor to make this place look good, and I am lucky in that my kids don’t destroy everything they touch either. That is a definite plus. My friend Sally has boys who seem to be very destructive. Every time she gets her house nice, they break half of what she has just bought, even the chic furniture she had just purchased.

LOL

Kids are so funny. My son was singing the same song I used to sing at the end of the school year. Of course he didn’t know that I could hear him and I didn’t say anything to him, but I did get a chuckle out of it. I know that you know which song I am talking about. No more teachers, no more books, no more teachers dirty looks, when the teacher rings the bell. Drop your books and run like 7734. I am still giggling over that.

Something new or used?

I have been trying to decide weather or not to get a new car or a used one. I am pretty sure I am going to go with used. I found this site that I really like with great cars on it. They have a lot of really nice cars and they are much more affordable than what I was looking at new. I got Credit Approval online in just a few minutes and have already picked out a couple of cars I really like.

The used cars I saw on the blog were clean and looked like brand new. I can’t wait to go buy myself a new to me car. It is always exciting when you can buy something for yourself, especially something as large as a car. The kids are going to be really happy too, because the AC in the old one doesn’t work and they constantly complain about it.

Too busy lately

Gosh I have been too busy lately. I cannot wait for summer to get here so I can have some really good R & R. I want a full week with no getting up at the crack of down to get kids ready for school and packing lunches etc… I am so glad that school is almost over. The hectic schedule tends to get to you about half way through the year and by the end of the school year, you are ready to jump ship almost. I am so at that point.

The bar

I am so happy. I found the perfect bar stools for my bar in the game room. We have a pool table, Foosball table, stereo and big screen TV with X-Box and WII set up. Since we set the game room up in the basement, it is rather large. It opens up out the back through double sliding glass doors right onto the patio where the pool is. We can have pool parties and be indoors and out doors at the same time. The bar will be stocked well with all kinds of drinks for the young and old.

I am going to have the first pool party with a full bar on Memorial Day now that it is almost finished. I might even have one on the Fourth of July as well. We shall see how the first one goes first. I cannot wait to show off all of my hard work to all my friends and family.

Too nice

Never let it be said that I am not accommodating. I will support you in all your decisions and stand by your side when those decisions are perhaps not what was best. However, do not confuse kindness and love with weakness. I will not under any circumstances let you take advantage of me. If that is what you have on your agenda, reconsider that course of action. You really don’t want to know what it is like to get on my bad side.

Oh no

Oh no, my best friends house burned down. I offered for her to come stay here with her kids, but she refused. She said that the Salvation Army is putting them up in a motel and she needed the time to regroup. she was lucky that recently she had bought a Sentry Safe for her valuables and important documents. That was a god send to her in this crisis. The emergency crew rescued it the next day when the Sentry Safe inspector came to determine the cause of the it.

Her mother was happy that she bought the Sentry Safe after she found out about the fire. She even decided that it was a very smart thing to do and is going to purchase one for her house as well. I have had one for a long time, because I had flood damage once and lost the paperwork I needed. Since it is water proof, I don’t have to worry about that happening again.

This is how I feel today

angry

This is how I feel today. So if you have ideas about messing with me, I would seriously reconsider that agenda. If you decide that you just have to mess with me, you might get more than you can handle. I will gladly rip your head off and gnaw on it for a snack. So leave me alone until I calm down and you might want to fix what you did to piss me off. Have a nice day ! NOT !
