70s Party Pictures

I hope this slideshow works so you can view what an awesome time we had at the 70's Party last night, boy did we have a great time. My legs are kiLLing me this morning and my feet too --dancing in those platform type shoes from the 70's definitely gives someone a workout, we danced from 9pm thru 1:00a.m. until we finally tired out and came home. What some great pictures.

Enjoy.......

Summer Like Weather

Wow! what a wierd 2 days we are experiencing, its like summer. Humid and hot. Although its only 84 degrees today, its hot! Guess we're getting a taste of summer-like weather. Which is nice but tomorrow 86 and humid. And it figures a day we are having a few friends over for some drinks and entertainment. Never fails, its always hot when we plan something outside.

By Sunday its suppose to be in the low 80's and more like fall weather. I'm anxious to get the decor out for fall, pumpkins/scarecrows and more. Before we know it, Halloween will be here.

In Memory of 9-11

Just wanted to make sure everyone knows I didn't forget 9-11..........I can remember 6 years ago sitting in my living room while Taylor was outside waiting for the bus to arrive, Steve was standing on the front porch (thinking he was laid off work, which is not surprising) anyways, and the TODAY SHOW was interrupted with this horrifying incident. The Twin Towers were hit by a plane, Steve and I were in shock for the next many many hours just watching the TODAY SHOW and broadcast news as everyone in this nation was all day and the rest of the week.............

In Memory of all 9-11 victims.........you are not forgotten!

the View

Every morning I normally watch the view, although lately I haven't been too tuned in due to Rosie leaving, I just love her, I think she is very well spoken and just tells you how it is, and that's me too.

Yesterday they announced that Sherri Shepherd is going to be the new co-host and I'm so happy. I just like her. She's very spirited and very funny! Plus, being a Plus size gal myself I can relate to her in a lot of ways. I look forward to watching more of the VIEW this fall/winter or at least hearing it, as I normally have the TV on while I'm doing computer/work in the next room........I usually take a break here and there and sit for a little bit to catch up on the faces on TV instead of just listening.........

Rachael Ray is another show I'm so excited for new episodes now. She has moved in our area from 10:00a.m. to 2pm now and I'm not used to that, kind of threw me off yesterday when I was wanting to sit for breakfast and watch her at 10:00 and she wasn't there, now I watch her at snack time at 2pm (laugh)

Sherri Shepherd has her own website, you can see her here www.sherrishepherd.com and see who she is! Love her!!!!

a Busy Weekend

I'm just blogging real quick today cause we have a busy 2 days ahead of us, we are having our 3rd annual horseshoe tournament and BBQ this weekend. What a way to end the summer. But did I mention its to be 90 degrees today and tomorrow and that dreaded word I hate HUMID!!!! YIKES!!!

I don't look forward to the heat but today I have some cookin' to do and last minute errands, picking up tables, getting last minute items and a few things here and there.

We plan to have a pretty good crowd this year and hope the heat doesn't keep everyone away! Have a great weekend!

Labor Day Weekend

well, its Labor Day Weekend, nothing special going on. Its been a long week, Steve didn't work at all this week, but plans to have a full week coming up ---- things are tough right now. I was job searching but nothing is appeaLing to me. Even if its part-time.

Taylor is back to school, and so far so good. (I think) She loves her Spanish class. I forsee her starting to talk Spanish and wanting help with that. I took 3 yrs in high school but could not and probably would not talk Spanish to this day. The basics is all I remember.

Labor Day is tomorrow, no special plans. I can remember having a picnic every Labor day when we were younger but seems like we don't do that anymore. Every one is just so busy I guess. We'll probably just make something on the grill tomorrow and call that our Labor day celebration.
We have alot to plan and get ready this week for our Picnic/Horseshoe Tournament on Saturday the 8th.....we have probably 50+ people coming. We have food to make, drinks to buy and preparation in the backyard as far as lawn mowing, weeding and cleanup --- geez! this week will go so fast.

Have a great LABOR DAY EVERYONE!!!
