Oh my goodness what a BEAUTIFUL day! The weather here has been so nice for the last week or so and I have been slowly starting to get into summer mode! Even done some yard work on my long 4 day weekend last week. I just love doing yard work. Hand me a branch trimmer, saw, rake, work gloves and I am there baby! And don't even get me started on burning! Give me a 12 pack of Corona's, a pile of brush and a book of matches and I'll be out there all night! I often remind Scott how lucky he is that he has a woman that loves working outside. Anyways, today it's going to be 80 degrees out and wouldn't ya know it, I have to work. Not too bad though because it's Friday and just knowing that it's the weekend makes me a happy girl. I don't know what I'm going to do this weekend. I was thinking about doing my spring cleaning but then I'll want to have all the windows open and right now is the worst time for it. My whole entire house and everything in it will turn green with all the pollen. I do however have a list of things I have to do for other people so I'm thinking of getting caught up with that.
I hope everyone has a glorious day!
Sorry for the boring post today but I'll share some fun stuff tomorrow!

By The Way.....
I forgot to mention this but remember the mailbox contest from my previous post? Well.........I won second place! Yay me!!!
Saturday
I love Saturdays like this. Slept in until 12:30 this afternoon. Not because I was tired, but because I was just plain lazy and I felt I deserved it. Me staying up until after four in the morning really had nothing to do with it! Neither did me drinking a "few" drinks either! Hey....I had a rough week and it's the weekend and I'm entitled so....
After finally getting my ass out of bed, I done a quick cleanup of the house. Vacuuming, washing dishes, making the bed you know.....the usual. After that a quick shower and Nick and I were off for some serious shopping! I really wanted to go to Archivers because it's been so long since I've been there. Like a total of maybe 3 days and I needed to look for something for me to make Easter cards with. Found a ADORABLE card that I wanted to make but just my damn luck, the stamps that were used to make it with were sold out! I was so mad! They had everything else there for Easter except for the one thing that I wanted! I swear it always turns out that way! I've been walking around the house for the last couple weeks saying to Nicki..."I have to make Easter cards-what should I do? I have to make Easter cards-what should I do? What should I do for Easter cards? I have to come up with an Easter card idea- what should I do?". That poor girl! Every holiday that I need to make cards for she gets to hear this from me every single day I see her! It's no wonder she is starting to despise holidays! That trip to Archivers was a waste of time for me. All I came home with was $49.00 in crap that I "needed" like I needed a hole in my head. I still don't know what I'm going to do so unfortunately Nichole has to still listen to me.
I also didn't find what I was looking for at the mall. Nichole for some reason thinks I need a new pair of shoes. She literally hates the ones I wear now everyday. I think they are called deck shoes? It's the simple ugly slip on ones. They are made of canvas, are black with white skulls on them. She hates them and I love them! Actually she says they aren't all THAT bad, but when I wear nice black pants and a pretty pink blouse and look all nice with my hair pinned up and then I wear these shoes, it just doesn't look good at all. I say that at the age of almost 44 that it doesn't matter what it looks like.....it's how comfortable they are and how much I like them! She just rolls her eyes and sighs. She's young right now but she's going to get old one day and then she'll know what I'm talking about.
I didn't end up buying much of anything. I bought a glass lazy susan on clearance for like $6.50 and a birthday gift for my mother-in-law. Also got a devotional book and a book on tape (Joyce Meyers) at Barnes & Noble. We didn't even get to the second level of the mall and they were closing. Since we didn't spend much money shopping she suggested we we go out for cocktails afterwards. Well need I say she didn't have to say twist my arm for that one! We ended up at La Cacina- a Mexican place that serves the BEST strawberry margaritas EVA! We ordered a pitcher and also some dinner and we were laughing so hard I about pee'd my damn pants! I just love spending time with her like this! Always ALWAYS a good time! One thing I say about my kids.....all 3 of them, is that they ROCK! My day was originally planned for just cleaning and scrapping, but I had a much better time spending it with her instead!
