Ahhhh, 80

It's February 27th and I had on capri's and flip flops today, wow! Flip flops in February! It was 82 degrees today which is the first time it has hit 80 since Thanksgiving. It was so darn nice outside today! It will cool back down to normal for this time of year (low to mid 70's) which is also pretty darn nice. I am looking forward to it getting just a bit warmer and being able to get in the pool again. I wish for a bit warmer although, I know that all too soon, it will be unbearably hot. I will enjoy this temperate weather while it's here! And also the fact that winter was cool but no ice, no snow, no white knuckle drives on slippery roads.

Pictures

I've been promising a few people a picture of the pool for quite some time. I had no excuse for not taking it and getting it posted. Just hadn't done it. Last weekend, I got the camera and went to take the picture and get it posted - finally. Well, it seems our digital camera is broken. I can look at pictures we've taken but when I move the switch to take a picture, the screen is just black with white lines running through it. Dang! I guess we are now in the market for a new camera. I will get some pictures posted eventually!

Happy Valentine's Day - he he he

A few years ago we started a new Valentine's tradition and we have so much fun with it. Do you ever walk through the store and see all the Valentine's crap that is out there? You look at it and wonder who the heck buys this stuff? Well, we do now! The tradition now is to buy each other the tackiest thing we can find. Every year it seems I find something and I walk through the store giggling thinking of the reaction I will get when I give it to him. We then give each other our "gifts" and we laugh and laugh and decide who got the tackiest gift. Ok, call us crazy but it is fun. We stopped going out to dinner several years ago because it seems the whole world is out to dinner on Valentines Day. We'd rather go when it's not so busy and rushed. We don't want/need chocolates or sweets so that's out. So our new tradition is fun and we know what we're looking for when buying each other a Valentine gift!!

I'm Clueless

Holy Cow, I logged in and saw my last post. Has it really been since New Year's that I have posted anything? Wow, time flies.
This weekend, we went to a furniture store to pick up a table we had ordered a month or so ago. We went in and paid for the table and did the paperwork (which took a while because they couldn't find it) and looked around etc. As we left, Glenn and our friend Duane were commenting on someone in the store and that they thought he lived in New York and wondered if they had a place here. Huh, what are you guys talking about. Who? Apparently, Ice T and Coco were in the store. I was standing right next to them and didn't even know anyone else was there. This is not a big store and there were only 3 cars in the parking lot including ours. I've had this happen before where someone I'm with sees someone famous and I never saw them. New rule: If you are with me and there is a famous person around you have to tell me!
