Good morning, Y?all!

This weekend was Be-U-T-ful!!!!!!!!!!  I spent more than an hour sitting on the balcony, soaking up the sun, Friday afternoon (and I?m gonna do it again today, too).  Then we spent Saturday and Sunday out driving around with the sunroof open and the windows down.  Saturday we stayed right here in Worcester.  We didn?t take a map, just drove by our wits.  When we got ready to come home, we started looking for street names we knew.  We?ve found that?s the best way to learn our way around a new place.  And we?ll have to rely on that here since the streets go every-which-way!  Sunday we headed west, out of town, then went up to Vermont and over to New Hampshire.  The temp was up to 77 the last time we checked.

During our drive, there were some areas where the thermometer in my truck showed it to be in the 70?s, but there was still patches and piles of snow on the sides of the road and ice on ponds and lakes!  It was just a gorgeous drive.

Since we were out running around, Saturday and Sunday were gonna be splurge days.  Wrong!  I tried.  I had a burger and fries for lunch both days, but didn?t eat breakfast or dinner.  So I was within my calorie range.

Well, I?ll have my splurge day this weekend.  We?ll be flying out Friday going down to Fort Wayne for the weekend.  And there?s nothing there to cook, so we?ll be eating out, cuz we?re not gonna go buy groceries for two days.

We need to bring back some summer clothes and a few odds and ends.  Micheal wants his golf clubs so we?ll pack them up and ship them.  But everything else we bring back, we?ll pack in suitcases.  (We?re gonna take 2 empty suitcases with us, one inside the other).  We won?t need to take anything down there with us, so we?ll take the two empty cases to pack everything into.  And I have a huge old suitcase in the shed that I?m gonna put some cookware and stuff in.  I need my large stew pot, a large mixing bowl, and my boom box, so they?ll go in the big suitcase.

And we need some paperwork, especially our birth certificates.  Got to have them so we can get our passports in time to go to India in October.  Oh yeah, I do need to take some paperwork back with me so I can shred it, unless I just bring the shredder back with me.

So next weekend is gonna be a busy one.

Oh, don?t know what happened with the woman at work.  Micheal said he didn?t hear anything before he came home.  He?ll find out what happened today.

Well, I?m off to read some blogs.  There?s plenty to read since I wasn?t on this weekend.

Y?all have a fantabulous day!!
