April Showers

We have had a lot of rain this Spring. I am starting to feel soggy from all this rain every day. I think we have had twice as much as normal. All of the creeks are flooded and even the big dam has flooded up the lake shore beyond the park benches.

I’m sure this problem is making it tough on the farmers – they can’t plant the seeds for their crops and risk having the seeds all drown in all this water. They can’t even plow – the fields are nothing but mud. It will be a short growing season for our local vegetables this year.

Easter Candies

Even if you are not very religious you can still enjoy Easter. Anyone can have an Easter egg hunt and enjoy a special Easter brunch or dinner. I like the candies, especially jelly beans!

Green Beer All Weekend!

We are going to parties and gatherings all weekend for a very long celebration of St. Patrick’s Day this year.

We are responsible drinkers, though. We will take turns drinking and being sober so that we have each other’s back. We would never risk a DUI or an accident because we  were drinking. I would take a cab if I had to.

We’ll be out with lots of friends all weekend. I hope you have as much fun celebrating the hollday as we do!

Date Night

Even though we are a couple and have been together for over 2 years, we still have date night. I like to celebrate the end of the work week and wind down on Friday night by going out to dinner and then watching a movie or going to club to listen to music for a few hours.

Tonight we are going to the comedy club and have a few laughs. You don’t want to eat dinner at the comedy club – all they have is burgers and chicken nuggets. I think we’ll probably stop by Appleby’s on the way over and get some decent food before the show.

New Survivor Series Starts Tonight

I’ve been hooked on the TV show, Survivor, ever since it first came out. A couple of my friends heard about it and invited me over to watch it with them. We were hooked! We still all watch it, but since they moved way acorss town I don’t see them as much or watch it with them anymore. But we chat on IM or text about it after it is over. We love the show and would love to be on it as a contestant. That would be awesome. So tonight is the first episode in the new season. I’ll be watching!

Happy Birthday, Glen!

Today is Glen’s birthday. He is the love of my life. I’m so lucky that he chose me to be at his side – he is the most perfect man in the world. I have big plans for his birthday tonight – but I can’t tell you here! Just trust me on this – a night he won’t soon forget! Love you, Glen! Happy Birthday, baby!

Big Day for Football

Glen got tickets for the football game today, so we are heading out soon to do a little tailgating and watch an important playoffs game. I’m very bummed that it is raining this morning. I hope the rain stops before game time. We are supposed to met up with friends in the parking lot and grill some steaks. Hope the rain doesn’t ruin those plans. We are heading out with high hopes for the rain to stop and our team to win.

Happy New Year Everyone!

Did you go out and celebrate for New Year’s Eve?

We went to a party at the firehouse. It was mostly firemen and their wives. Glen’s brother is a volunteer fireman, so we sat with him and his wife and knew most of the rest of the people there anyway. The firemen had hired a local band to play and when they took their 15 minute band breaks we played some top hits on the jukebox. We danced all night!

The price of the ticket included a glass of champagne, so at New Year’s we all counted down the last ten seconds and yelled and kissed and toasted each other with our champagne.

It was probably the nicest New Year’s Eve I’ve ever had. I we all can say the same for the coming year, too. Happy New Year Everyone!

Christmas in Disney World

What a great way to spend the holiday, taking a flight to Disney World and living the life! That is exactly what my brother and his wife and kids are doing right now as I am typing here.

His wife got online and planned an extra action packed adventure with all of Disney’s finest characters available to play along with. My brother got one heck of a nice Christmas bonus, his wife was aware of the anticipated bonus check and took action immediately and poof they are all packed and gone, just like that. The Internet made it all possible in such a short period of time and I’m impressed and waiting for a postcard!
