You gotta be kidding me! It's been almost a week since I posted last? I could have sworn I posted Wednesday night.

Two more weeks! Two more weeks! Vacation time is around the corner. I'm taking a week off on June 9 and I can't wait! I am so ready for a break. Wish we got a three day weekend to celebrate, but snow days are forcing us to school Monday. That's ok....I'm about to give the next two days all I got. We bought Bambina a little splash pool for this weekend...so we are gonna have fun in that. I can't wait.

Hope all is well. Going to spot check on everything and see how all is going. Y'all enjoy tomorrow. I will see y'all around this weekend!

Enjoy your weekend, friend!!!!

I'm in for that! On the tea side.

Oh, great! I actually meant it when I said about coffee/tea club. No joke. :]
Anyone else?

Hi everyone! Hope you're all having a great start to your weekend. I'm off for three days and am going to enjoy it. DH, the kids, and I are having a campfire and are going to camp out in the backyard this weekend. We're enjoying it so far! Hope you all have a great night!

Oh, I miss campfires. Enjoy yours! ^^

Good Morning, my Friends.

Back at last!
-- But not for long --

A last minute change of plans.
We are now leaving for the beach later this morning and will return late Monday.
So, alas, I must request another volunteer for tomorrow and Monday mornings.
Short notice, but.....well.....you know how that goes!

Now!
To the business at hand.
A BIG THANKS to 'Star who shone bright this past week as countdown captain while I was away. Great job, my friend!

And speaking of the count.
WOW!
Just look:
Days to the Season: 173
Days to Christmas Day: 215

Can the count really have declined that much while I was away?
Just look how close we are to the 200-day Christmas Day Window and a double-100's count. And that just happens to be our next Milestone!
(It pays to be gone. And then again, it doesn't!)

Well, our weather was spectacular for Florida in May.
Not a single day of rain and the temps were for the most part in the '70's and '80's. Not overly humid, either.
Had a nice trip to visit relatives, some of whom we had not seen in years.
Two of them are over 90 years old.
We are at 59 degrees here currently in the capital city.

Have a Sensational Saturday, Folks.
And I'll see you here Tuesday morning!

This is the tree in front if my home

Discovered a pair if robins are building a nest in it

It is right outside my living room window so I can watch as the babies grow

Glad you had such a nice time away! It's wonderful that you got to visit with your relatives that you had not seen in a long time

Have fun at the beach!!

Good morning!
It's going to be mostly cloudy today with a chance of showers. My oldest is going to an all day music festival, I'm hoping the rain holds off for them.
I'm heading out to the supermarket in a few minutes. I have a really big shopping trip, my regular grocery list plus everything we need for Memorial Day. I'll be working on some chores around the house afterward. And my cousin is having a barbeque today, she invited us to go later this afternoon. My husband is working so I'm not sure if we'll go or not, depends on what time he gets home. That's about it for me today.
I hope everyone is well and has a Happy Saturday!!!

Christmasstar · May 24, 2014

Today is the anniversary of my dad's home going. It has been 17 years already, I miss him.
Mom and I are going to the cemetery to clean the headstone and plant some flowers.
This is dad with mom and my 2 girls in the spring of 1987 (LittleCS is the one without the hat)

Hope your daughter has fun at the music festival, and that the rain holds off for them!

Hope grocery shopping goes well, and that the store isn't too crowded. I went yesterday, and I had to go to two different stores because they were sold out of so many things. Frustrating, lol.

Have a great Saturday!!
