Well my neighbors apartment walls are now white again. So to celebrate, I'm going to kick back and enjoy a piece of this white chocolate chip cheesecake.

Oh, my niece did good this morning during her scopes. The doctor saw one spot that was a little bumpy in her intestine but nothing major. So now they are just waiting until her follow up appointment on April, 3rd to see what the biopsies and blood work show.

Glad to hear the scopes went well. Keep us updated on what the doctor says at the follow-up.

Hi Gang... its been a long while since I have posted in here. Been in a kind of holiday funk for the past several months. Halloween, Christmas and Thanksgiving were good but felt like things were missed or rushed. Was not prepared for how busy we were with both kids and hubby involved in the midget football league. Our youngest doesnt want to play football this year so that will free up a good amount of time for me so that will allow for more time to enjoy the season. There was also some family drama that didnt help either.

This year WILL be better as I am already feeling it. A couple gift have already been bought, got more gift ideas written down and started planing for Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Well I hope everyone has a great day!

Good Wednesday morning, my Christmas friends!

I had to dash out yesterday afternoon to make a dentist appointment I'd forgotten. A good thing about small town life is, when you're late for your appointment, the dentist calls your cell to let you know he'll wait for you to get there. LOL

We went by Lowe's and they have to coolest riding mower now. It's shaped like a 4-wheeler, and you can easily disconnect the cutting deck to drive it around like a 4-wheeler...at 17 MPH! And you can drive on batteries, like a golf cart. It also has a small truck bed on back with a tailgate, and a 7100 watt generator to attach electric tools while out in the yard! I LOVE THIS MACHINE!

I hope y'all have a great day! cheesy

That is a pretty AWESOME mower, Brad!!

does your neighbor know you are going to do this?

Yeah, he is the one that fell into the wall in his shower and put a hole in it. So I just finished what he started.

glad to have you back again.
I know what you mean about the busy thing, I worked two jobs before Christmas and was so busy I missed a lot of stuff at Christmas. Will not be doing that again!

Good to see you again, Minta! Wow, you are really ahead of the game on your holiday preparations. I love reading posts like this because it makes the Season get here faster! Made is good about getting prepared, too. I will follow what he does and I will add getting ready for Halloween and Thanksgiving, too! Thanks for the reminder!

Good morning, friends! Happy first day of spring! How is everyone? All is well here. Just sitting here relaxing with all of you and drinking a cup of coffee. DH is working and the kids are at preschool and daycare.

Last night was so much fun. The girls had a blast. My friend's daughter is always a little bashful, but by the middle of dinner, she opened up and was started to be herself. They both had a lot of fun. She brought EA a gift for inviting her along. I thought that was so sweet. Little girls have such sweet hearts. She got her a Hello Kitty Ty Beanie Baby, that was dressed like a Easter Bunny - EA slept with it last night. :-D

What are everyone's plans for today? I don't have a lot to do. I am going to sweep the house, do some wash, and figure out what we're going to do for dinner.

Hope you're all having a great day so far! I am going to get caught up on the posts. Talk to you guys here later on. God Bless! Talk soon! cheesy

Good morning, sugar!!

Glad you girls had such a wonderful time last night!!

That was very thoughtful of your friend's daughter to bring a gift for EA. little girls are extra sweet!

I mentioned earlier that I will be working on continuing my organizational stuff. It is not that I am doing spring cleaning. I am actually doing this to get things moved out of the kitchen/den area to begin the work on the gourmet kitchen. We are still awaiting approval of the plans. Hubby worked so hard on them, but it is something he loves to do. My son gave him a current "issue" of AutoCad, the professional level one. He is like a kid with a new toy, and my son just loved being able to do something for him! TTYL

What a wonderful gift from your son!!

When do you expect to hear back about your plans?
