little of this, little of that

FINALLY a picture of the new do...

***********************************************************

The dress in the picture above I bought several years ago.
It totally fit when I bought it...
but not when I got it home.
UNTIL last weekend!
Took the tags off.
On a similar note - put on a pair of work pants this week that I have to retire - WAY too big now and look horrible.
20 pounds to go!

Sean wasn't home so the cardinals came for a visit - they're his favorite - wants them at the Camp but they don't come around.  I took a picture so he could enjoy them, too.

Lesson learned this week - check the weather for the day you come back from a trip.
Left for Tampa when it was in the 70s in Texas, came back to an ice storm.
Only had flip flops and very light jacket.
Luckily I was parked REALLY close to the door.
Took me 1.5 hours to drive home from the airport.
Only fish-tailed once.
But ended the journey by sliding right into the garage.
Don't worry Sean - I didn't hit the wall or anything.

***********************************************************

Kermit looks like he's sunbathing in the sand...
except from this angle he has a scared look on his face.
Oh, that's left over ice from the storm on Monday night - picture taken today.
Snow is on the way again tonight...
but 50's on Saturday!

Duke has the greatest name to add to any song...
"Ain't no other man but Duke..."
"Despite all my rage, Duke is still just a rat in a cage..."
"Since Duke's been gone..."
"But tonight I'm loving Duke..." - ok so that one came out creepy sounding...

I can hear you now - "what a freak" - but just wait - you're going to find yourself doing it, too...
...when you're all alone, in the car, stereo cranked, beltin' it out...just wait!
