A very happy birthday to our great nation. A huge thank you to those who are serving and not home with their families on this 233rd birthday of America. It is a little mind boggling to think of all the changes in 233 years. I bet the declaration wouldn't have taken so long to write if they would have had Word and email!
I closed the day care yesterday for the legal holiday. I am so glad I did! I had a great day. I went to get a pedicure first thing. And who doesn't feel good all day long after that??? Then I picked up Diana and we went to St. Joseph's Womens Hospital to see Miss Elle. She is doing as well as can be expected after surgery and should come home tomorrow.
It has been years and years since I was at Women's Hosp. Man has it changed and grown. Wow.
After that we mosied out to Palm Harbor to Ruban Rouge. It was sorta in the neighborhood, if you have a exaggerated sense of mileage! ok it wasn't anywhere near where we were. We just decided we didn't have anything else to do and they were having a sale and would want us to come visit. So we did. Everyone was happy.
I took Diana home and picked up Taylor and Jimmy. I took them to Kanes and had them sit on sofas. recliners and chairs with ottomans. it is a production purchasing something that "feels like clouds" when you sit down and matches the colors in the floor and brick wall. Then Jimmy prefers a chair with ottoman to a recliner. And if you get him to agree on a recliner, he doesn't like the ones that rock. We have ruled out black completely. We have decided what shades of brown we don't like. Then you have the ones that got tossed out because they were just out of the price range.
Oh the ordeal. Pray.
I took Jimmy home and he went to Wal Mart in New Tampa. I checked emails and facebook until it was time to pick up Michele and go to the movies. We saw Public Enemies and Taylor saw Year One. We left there around 11 I guess and stopped at Starbucks on the way home.
What a great day!! and the best part is I still have 2 days off. Today is more work. I have cleaned the bathroom. Took 2 plastic bags of clothes out of my closet. Picked up the house and swept it. God the dog hair! I have my last load of laundry in. Hurray for me.
I bought a word book at Ruban Rouge that says RECIPES. I am going to use this months KNK kit to do it in. I am so excited I might do it tonight while I watch the race. If you don't get the kits, and I don't know why you wouldn't since I do, you can go to www.knkclub.com. tell them Linda sent you. I dont' think it will carry any weight but I always wanted to say that.
Now I am going to get a shower and get dressed. I am going to see if Diana is going to the hospital with me. T-Bones and porterhouses are on sale at Publix I think. Doesn't that sound like a nice 4th dinner? Sauted onions? baked sweet potato? ummmmm maybe a cheese cake with strawberries and blueberries? humm
Have a great day!
