Monday

Well another week closer to my man retiring. The weather is getting cooler. my girlfriend Nin is coming to visit for a few days. YEA another women to talk to and hang with. My dad and Kathy were down last week. We ate and went to the slots. no winning this time. Still own two houses which really sucks. Althought we did find someone to rent this one if we need too. nin's sister was diagnosed with breast cancer this past week. She was a very positive out look which is half the battle. I told nin I would shave my head with her if they need me too. Since the youngest sister won't I'll step up to the plate. i always wondered what my head looks like. I'm looking for plane fare to germany for christmas but have not found anything yet. Since gas prices are going down, why isn't airfare????????

Sunday Afternoon

Well today I attended a bridal shower for a friend's daughter. She is a very nice girl, good drinker too. Well I had to drive to New Castle county. That is the upper most county in Delaware. Now remember there are only three counties in Delaware. It takes about 90 minutes to drive from the top of the state to the bottom. I find that is just another Sunday afternoon drive, but people here think it is long. Well anyway how showers have changed over the years. No longer are you at your mother's house or you best frined's. Now you are at a resturant with a full course meal. No more finger sandwiches and fruit punch. Also forget about only close friends and family. There were about 70 people at this shower. I can't imagine what the wedding is going to be like. They are going to need a U-Haul just to take the shower gifts. But gone are the days of games at the shower and stories of when the blushing bride was a baby. I was still an enjoyable Sunday afternoon. What really made it a great day was that the Eagles lost today also!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Almost Heaven

Well things are finally starting to settle in. The children and I are settled in the great state of DE. My man retires in six weeks, the kids are back in school, and "the body and i have all day to do what we want. She sleeps. I on the other hand am trying to consolidate two homes into one. not an easy task. The weather is changing, the days are shorter and the nights cooler. I can now walk on the beach anytime I choose. It is a great feeling. So I am now almost in heaven, once my man is here and the houses are settled into one house I will be in heaven.
