Greetings Sweet Friends,


Happy August to you!!

So how has your week been?
Good I hope!!

Ours has been good and busy and
I have a very busy day today, as
I have to go have paper notarized
and get them to Fed X for over
nighting,  then I can relax for
the rest of the day and weekend
hopefully............lol



 Pics today are the last of our golf
cart tour in Charleston.
So will get on with my Thankful
list now......

#1

Thankful for fresh cherries which

are in season now.  Never had any

of these until about the last maybe

13 years, but they are really good.

Love keeping a dish on the counter

and popping a few every so often.

#2

Thankful for a fun time with our

son and lil darling on Sunday.

Mommy was away visiting relatives 

so visited, had dinner eventually

(you will see what I mean in #3)

and played wii.

#3

Thankful that we figured out that 
the yellow rice I cooked to go with 
our cuban food on Sunday had bugs
 in it, before we ate them!!  

The rice just didn't cook up right and
 was very gummy and also didn't taste
 right and if it hadn't been for that,
 not sure we would have figured it
 out. I had noticed some black specks

 that looked like a spice and was

wondering what spice it could be, lol

then my husband jokingly said maybe
 it's bugs, and we all had a good laugh
 and then, I said oh my gosh, I bet that is
 what it is, cause I have used this brand
of rice before and never saw anything 
black in it before, and upon closer
 inspection we saw lil tiny legs on
 those black spots....  EWWW!!

So we took a few pics and I threw it
 out and made some more rice that
 took forever to cook in the microwave, 
which is how I always cook my rice,
and now we realized we need a new
 microwave as it is just not cooking
 correctly,  and we had noticed some 
things taking a lil longer,  but not
 like the rice had...course, I only
cook bacon or heat things which
is quick.....so think it had to do 
with the microwave being on for
so long, cause noticed the counter
top was very hot too.

I thought we were never gonna

have dinner.....and the rice wasn't
as cooked as it could have been,
but we were all starving so went
ahead with it....

I promise those lil legs didn't show
up till they were done cooking....lol

#4

Thankful that our grocery store

has a lot of buy one get one

free items, they always have

something we can get but this

week there was a lot,  so it

saved quite a bit, and who
can't love that!!



#5
Thankful I finally finished 
shredding and burning (in the
fireplace) all the old paperwork 
that had to go..........yeah!!!!

#6

Thankful and very excited to hear

this week that my nephew and

his family will be moving back

here by next June hopefully. 

Will be so nice to get to see 

them often.......as they live

all the way in Missouri now.

#7

Thankful and very excited again

as we finally got the approval

to sell my Mom's home, Finally!

Closing is suppose to be next

Monday...........

#8

Thankful for finger rockets we
found at Dollar tree some weeks
back.........they have proved to be
great fun for all of us, when lil
darling is here.....we have contests
to see whose rocket goes the
furtherist or is it fartherist 
(if either is a real word) lol.
You can actually shoot them in 
the house and they don't hurt 
anything. Great fun!!

#9
Thankful for lil darlings 
creativity, she is always coming
up with new ideas for how to
play already existing games.
This week it was bowling with
bears.....we set up 3 bears and
then rolled a ball at them, if you
don't knock one over the first
time your turn is over, but if you
do knock one over, you get 2 
more turns and if you got 3
 down you got a strike and get
 to celebrate with a lil victory
dance..........lol  Lil darling
continually cracks us up!!

#10
Thankful for Cinnamon and Orange
Rolls from Pillsbury...you know the
ones in the tube can.....we have
always loved them,  and have been
eating them more as lil darling loves
to have bacon, eggs and those
yummy rolls when here lately.


#11
Thankful that things are going
well at my daughters house, as
she is watching her in-laws 
dog and cat, and she also has
her lil Chijuajua as well, and
they are all getting along
really well.  So hope it lasts
till the middle of August
when they return.

#12
Thankful for my Sweet and Smart
daughter- in- love Megan who helped
me go through all the papers for the
closing for my Mom's house.
What a blessing that was to me!!

Well, there you have it folks.
