Jacey just called and said that since it’s raining, maybe we should go see a movie or something. I was so afraid he was going to back out on me. I haven’t dated in awhile and I sort of feel like a high school girl who’s excited about a date with the quarterback of the football team. Silly huh? Well I think so too but it does sort of feel good at the same time. He’ll be here about 12:30 and then we’ll decide what movie we are going to see. Wish me luck that the date goes good.
As luck would have it
Well we were supposed to go to a carnival today but as luck would have it, it’s raining. That means no carnival. Now I’m wondering if that means the date is off or if he’ll come up with something else to do. I sure hope so. He hasn’t called me yet so I’m not sure what to do. We were supposed to leave about 12 o’clock today and I’m dressed and ready to go. I sure hope he doesn’t just leave me sitting here without a phone call or anything. That would not be cool at all!! I don’t think he’s that type of guy though. Oh there’s the phone. Maybe it’s him.

I just might go shopping
I need something new to wear to the carnival this weekend. Something that I won’t get too hot in or too cold in either because this time of year, you never know what the temperature is. Plus riding some of the rides can be a bit chilly. Besides everything else, it’s a darn good excuse to go shopping for something new. Don’t you think so? I do!! I might even get my sister to go with me. She’s really good at picking out clothes. Better than I an unfortunately.
It’s a date!!
Ever since the new guy started at work, I have had a crush on him, and I have been dreaming of him coming up to me asking me out, and by golly he did! Not exactly in those words, but the other day was very rough and hard on me, and I felt like I needed somebody to talk to. He must have seen it in my eyes and asked me if I needed someone to talk to.
After I told him about my day and how it went, he had full intentions to make me smile and feel better for the rest of the day. All he did was give me advice and gave me a shoulder to lean on, and that got me to finally open up to him that I sort of have a crush on him.
He took my news very well, and had asked me to go with him tomorrow to a Carnival that was held about an hour away from where I live, and I of course said yes! I would be a fool to say anything other then yes. I cant wait to see how everything works out, I’m sure it will all go smoothly and heavenly! Or I hope it will anyway.
They’re finally back
I got my hummingbird feeders out a couple of weeks ago and no hummingbirds. I thought they would be back by then but they weren’t. Oh there were plenty of bugs that managed to get into the feeder and drown but that was all until today. I finally saw a hummingbird and now I have to go home and make new nector for them because the other is probably sour by now. I make my own from 1 part sugar to 4 parts water and it works just as good at what you buy. It’s cheaper though!!!
I love movies
I guess I got my love of watching movies from my mother. She loves the old classics thought. I found out where you can Watch movies online. Isn’t that the neatest thing. No more renting from the local video store or ordering from an online movie club and then waiting for them to come to you only to have to send them back. All you have to do is sit back in your computer chair and Watch movies right there anytime. They have all types of movies from animated for the kids or the kid in you to horror movies. I’m not much on those. Give me a good old fashioned chick flick and I’m happy.
Dance yourself around the world
Today I learned that Matt existed. I never knew Matt before; in fact I still haven’t met him in person. I have, however, learned that he exists and that he has traveled around the world making videos of himself dancing. He actually know he has a website about his trip around the world, showing clips of himself dancing at the different locations where he went. Now I don’t mean tap dancing, or break dancing, or any kind of formal training “gee he’s great” dancing. He does not happen to be a good dancer, but what is remarkable about this is that eventually he got a sponsor to pay for him to travel around the world dancing and videotaping himself. Twice! In real life, he has never cared much for work and is not rich, so the fact that he managed to travel around the world at all is remarkable! If you can watch the video, I encourage you to do so. It is entertaining to see.
Time for some more humor
My mother told this one at our Mothers Day celebration. Now if you knew my mother, you would realize just how funny this is because my mother never tells jokes in the first place and well, this one is kind of funny was the second surprise to all of us. See what you think?
Little boy wanted $100.00 very badly and prayed for weeks, but nothing happened. Then he decided to write God a letter requesting the $100.00.
When the postal authorities received the letter to God , USA , they decided to send it to the President. The president was so amused that he instructed his secretary to send the little boy a $5.00 bill. The president thought this would appear to be a lot of money to a little boy.
The little boy was delighted with the $5.00 bill and sat down to write a thank-you note to God, which read:
Dear God:
Thank you very much for sending the money. However, I noticed that for some reason you sent it through Washington D.C. and they took $95.00 in taxes. Next time please send it straight to me so they won’t take out all those taxes.
Let me tell you about Mothers Day
All of us girls met over at Moms for Mothers Day and cooked her a nice lunch. Then it was time to pull out the Mothers Day presents. I made sure mine was the last one that Mom would open too. One of my sisters got Mom a beautiful summer outfit and Mom loved it. It had Capri’s and the cutest top with it. Then my other sister got Mom a beautiful card with a gift card in it to a nail salon to have a manicure and a pedicure too. Mom thought that was wonderful. Now she would look great in her new outfit with her nails and toes painted up all pretty.
Then came time for my gift. I had it in a nice box wrapped up really pretty with a beautiful bow on it. She gently pulled the bow off and carefully took the wrapping paper off just like she had done with the other presents. She likes to save the wrapping paper and bows if she can. When she opened the box, inside of it was a DVD of Casablanca, she was thrilled since that’s her favorite all time movie. I told her to look under the DVD. That’s when she found the bag of microwave popcorn.
As she picked it up with a smile, she saw the ‘grow a boyfriend’ figure under the popcorn. “What in the world is this?” she asked. I then told her that after she got all gussied up with my sisters gifts, she could put her new boyfriend in water and let him grow and then she would have a date for a movie and popcorn. Then I handed her a 2 liter of Coke and told her that date would be complete. Mom started laughing and everyone else was falling out of their chairs. It was great!! Mom loved all of her gifts.
