    It was my big mouth that dropped the hint, so Im not complaining. We are going to switch our load with someone and we will go back to Calif. Then after that we will go home.
    yes, Jackie, thanks so much for bee facts. It helps to understand them, doesnt it? I saw a movie I liked, The Secret Life of Bees. A southern movie.
    Jeffrey! Well whadayaknow! Good to here you are all doing well and that you get to play the Father of the Bride. Take care.
    Shirley, thats a great picture of you!
    marie, have a wonderful dinner, its the bread at golden corral that does me in.
    im done in anyway today. I should never have taken a nibble of that cornbread muffin. It was sweet and cakelike. I ate a whole muffin! It was dessert for me. I know better, but thats done.
    dh says he is homesick for homecooked vegetables and cornbread. Me too. And we will have good meals when we get home. We sometimes have lunch while we are out, but we never want dinner anywhere but home. Im not a big cooker, but manage to do ok for a week or two.
    connie, Im looking forward to another filet of swai fish.
    talk to you later, nap time.

    Just a quick hello before going to bed. It has been a wonderful day with the Honors Ceremony for Katie, then free cocktail hour at the hotel and then a nice dinner. I didn't do too bad on calories today, but am too tired to try and figure them out. I had my normal breakfast, but a chicken crepe with chicken for lunch and halibut for dinner. Even with the wine because of all the walking I did today, I would venture to say I was under calories. Tomorrow is the graduation with a party for friends to follow and then dinner later. The hotel is beautiful, the weather was perfect and now it is time for some needed sleep.

    Don't forget me, I will be back in form Tuesday.

    Here's a photo of some of the azaleas flowering in my garden. Last night's rain has hopefully given them a new lease of life because the ground was becoming parched and no amount of tap water was going to help.

    THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

    I don't want to brag or make anyone jealous or anything, but
    I can still fit into the earrings I wore in high school.

    National Girlfriend and Sister's Week
    I am only as strong as the coffee I drink, the hairspray I use, and the friends I have.
    To the cool women who have touched my life. Here's to you!

    It is good to be a woman:

    1. We got off the Titanic first.
    2. We can scare male bosses with mysterious gynecological disorder excuses.
    3. Taxis stop for us.
    4. We don 't look like a frog in a blender when dancing.
    5. No fashion faux pas we make could ever rival the Speedo.
    6. We don 't have to pass gas to amuse ourselves.
    7. If we forget to shave, no one has to know.
    8. We can congratulate our teammate without ever touching her rear end.
    9. We never have to reach down every so often to make sure our privates are still there.
    10. We have the ability to dress ourselves.
    11. We can talk to the opposite sex without having to picture them naked.
    12. If we marry someone 20 years younger, we are aware that we will look like an idiot.
    13. We will never regret piercing our ears.
    14. There are times when chocolate really can solve all your problems.
    15. We can make comments about how silly men are in their presence because they aren't listening anyway.

    Here I am, completely screwed up, though I think I'm thrilled with the new refrigerator. I've been reading reviews on Samsung all day (78 of 'em) trying to learn something about how to organize the various sections, would you believe? The center Flexible Temperature drawer had me really confused, along with all the new technology, and my poor brain is rattling around, and I've skipped breakfast yesterday, and lunch today, so my face is red from shame, but by tomorrow I should be back to somewhat NORMAL, at least for me! I did read this page's posts, and happy to see all's well with our old friend Jeffrey, and everyone's flowers are gorgeous! If I can figure out how th digital camera works again, I might try to snap this years' crop of flowers, though they look like last years crop, anyway. The ones I'm using as my "picture" are out in full bloom, my favorite lime colored fringed Digbyana orchids.
    Just want to make sure I wish you all a VERY HAPPY MOTHERS DAY, whether you are Mothers, Daughters, or sons! Y'all have a pleasureable celebration of being alive!!!:heart::heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart:

    Would You marry Again? - Priceless
    A husband and wife are sitting quietly in bed reading when the Wife looks over
    at him and asks the question....
    WIFE: "What would you do if I died? Would you get married Again?" HUSBAND: "Definitely not!"
    WIFE: "Why not? Don't you like being married?" HUSBAND: "Of course I do.." WIFE: "Then why
    wouldn't you remarry? " HUSBAND: "Okay, okay, I'd get married again." WIFE: "You would?" (with a hurt look)
    HUSBAND: (makes audible groan) WIFE: "Would you live in our house?" HUSBAND: "Sure, it's a great house."
    WIFE: "Would you sleep with her in our bed?" HUSBAND: "Where else would we sleep?" WIFE: "Would
    you let her drive my car?" HUSBAND: "Probably, it is almost new." WIFE: "Would you replace my pictures with hers?"
    HUSBAND: "That would seem like the proper thing to do." WIFE: "Would you give her my jewelry?"
    HUSBAND: "No, I'm sure she'd want her own." WIFE: "Would you take her golfing with you?
    HUSBAND: "Yes, those are always good times." WIFE: "Would she use my clubs? HUSBAND: "No,
    she's left-handed." WIFE: -- silence -- HUSBAND: "crap"

    :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: we just came back from our Mothers Day celebration. I took the dogs to the dog park at 7:15 AM because i knew there was going to be a big kids' game day there and I wanted to be in and out before there were any children around. The parking lot was already blocked off so I had to park at the other end of the city park and walk the dogs for about 10 minutes(past ducks, geese, and many small birds) to get to the dog park. The girls ran and chased birds off leash for over an hour then I leashed them and returned the 10 minute walk past all the birds to get to the car. Later, Jake and I went to town in the rain to the arts and crafts fair that was part of the Irrigation Festival and watched the Olympic Mountain Cloggers perform. Two of my line dance friends are cloggers. Then we went out to lunch. We went to a new Mexican restaurant that didn't look good once we got inside so we decided to leave and walked across the street to a familiar Chinese restaurant and had a fabulous lunch (I had chicken curry with brown rice and egg flower soup).:bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

    Oh Jake that's a good one!

    Finally we have RAIN! You can hear all the plants slurping it up! I put loads of veg seedlings in yesterday and they are all standing to attention this morning.

    Hope you all enjoyed Mothers day yesterday and were thoroughly spoiled. We had ours a few weeks ago. Spoke to my sister who had been over to see her son in New Jersey and she was saying how much colder and wetter it had been over there. We've probably had our summer! It did this last year!

    My lilac trees are beautiful, laden with blossom and perfuming the garden. If I can work out how to post pictures I will put them on.

    Have a relaxing Sunday be back soon, Judi xx
