Category Archives: Everyday Stuff

Just an area for what I’m doing on an everyday basis.

Busy, Busy

We just got done with a hell of a thunderstorm. It was loud. We sat out on the patio, watched the water drift in, and enjoyed the change in temperature. It was cool

We have been busy as heck the last few days. Mom, Dad & the kids will be here Sunday afternoon and I have been stressing on getting everything done around the house.

I came home yesterday and Harold was so sweet and made my life easier. He got a great portion of the cleaning and organizing done. I did get the mopping & a portion of laundry done, even though I was about to collapse with exhaustion since I hadn’t gotten enough sleep the last few nights.

It made today so much easier. We did our errands 1st thing this morning, then we attacked the remaining of the cleaning and organizing. There are only a few things I didn’t get done today and that was email related. I will work on my emails tomorrow after work, since I won’t be able to get to them until Thrus of next week the earliest.

We did spend some time jumping into the pool. Though I think Harold was trying to drown me as we played with the nerf-like football we picked up today………..grin We had a lot of fun.

My folks left from Indiana today and are spending the night in Georgia. They will be visiting aunt Maire on the other side of the state Sunday before heading here. I’m so looking forward to seeing them. I miss them.

Time for me to get my ass to bed. I have to get into work early.

A Good Day

We had a good day today. Got home from the b&b, laid down for a bit and went horse back riding.

I haven’t done that since the summer of ’88 in Alaska. It is amazing how natural it felt to be back in the saddle. Harold posted the pics from it. =)

Once we got home, we did the pool thing and then chilled.

I did get the never ending laundry caught up and litter done. Otherwise it was a couple of weeks of emails done.

I had a few things in mind to post about, but I’m tired & I’m feeling kind of out there, so those thoughts aren’t forming very well…..lol

It was just nice to spend some quality time together. =)

I wanna be a cowboy….

We took the last 2 days off to spend some alone together since we will have family in town on our anniversary in a few weeks so yesterday we went on a bike ride, then the beach and checked into a B&B here in Melbourne and then went to dinner at some fancy French Restaurant where we ate a lot of food and then back to the room for LOST and finally some time in the Jacuzzi.

And of course no anniversary of ours would be complete without the NBA Playoffs…. F***** Cavs… Yay Spurs!

Today we came home and crashed for an hour and then went on a horseback ride in Cocoa. A lot of fun, not too hot, but the guide wasn’t exactly the ideal person you would want to spend time with on an “adventure”, someone who is in the wrong business for sure.

Image 39 is a tree hit by lightning that started a small fire last week that was caught in time before any bad damage.

Images 63-71 are some shots of one of too many fires we have had in our area this year.

Images 72 and 73 is so funny and something I would never thought I would see (anti one, pro other)

We got home around 2pm where we did some work and spent some pool time and just chilling out now.

Early Anniversary Celebration

We are watching LOST. We are at a bed & breakfast so we can’t just fast forward through the commericals….lol

This is our anniversary celebration. We will be married for 9yrs on the 31st. With the family coming down, we decided to celebrate a few weeks early. So today we did a bike ride, packed for the evening, went to the beach, and headed to the b& b.

We then chilled and watch some news. We had reservations for a french restaurent within walking distance, but it was early so we walked the historic district and checked out some of the shops. It was the 1st time either of us have been to a french restaurent. What worries me about trying new places is getting something that you end up not eating. But we did pretty good on our selections and really enjoyed ourselves.

Now we are chilling out and while watching our tv show addiction…………..grin Tomorrow we are going horseback riding. I haven’t done that since Alaska. I’m excited and nervous all at the same time, since I haven’t done it in so long.

Babble

Meet our new DM today, lets just say I really want my old one back and that I’m not too impressed. She does not seem very friendly at all and did not give a good impression to any of my co-workers. =(

It was a productive and pretty much happy day at work today until she stopped by.

We did get good news when I stopped and got the mail on the way home. As Harold had posted, we got our one year lease extension! Now we can focus on getting things taken care of and seeing about moving about that time.

We have this year booked up, but we are trying to figure out when to head up and see Harold’s folks. We haven’t seen them in 5 yrs. We may have to do it next spring.

I had a few other thoughts, but I’m exhausted and they are not forming too well…………lol
