hey hey what up. Summer is officially here, been in the 100’s every day. My poor baby has to work out in it every day. I am indoors constantly with the A/C set just right. =) As soon as it starts getting cooler, I will venture outside and pick up my running again. Whats that you say? Get outside and run before it gets hot? Honey, the heat index was 92 when I woke up at 7:30!! And here, there is no cooling down at dusk, the heat and stickiness just lingers around forever and the bugs are horrendous!!!! I swear there is one horsefly out there that just waits for me to come outside so he can torment me.

Lots of good things in the works, don’t want to spill the details quite yet, but I’ll just say that our businesses we are starting have great prospects and that things are looking up for us! For me, I am finally over my work drama from months back, things are on track and I am very excited at the direction my life has taken. A great big thank you to D.A. for changing my life forever.

Our garden is still somewhat going. Bell Peppers, tomatoes, cucumber, watermelon are all thriving. Our corn went to crap, we haven’t a clue what happened. The one time we tried it, it didn’t have any flavor whatsoever. We think maybe it was feed corn. ick.

What else good is happening…… we keep selling junk we found around our property, the last vehicle went last night, 700 bucks, woohoo!! The place has really cleaned up nicely and good that we are making a little money, because our property must make 1500 bucks a year, or we lose our Greenbelt status. No pressure really.

Cats are good, dogs are good, I love Red, he has stuck around and been a fun and protective addition to our family. Yesterday, a car came onto our property, but quickly realized he was trespassing and drove out. The car was already gone and I looked over in Red’s spot where he sits and he was sleeping and didn’t notice the car, but seconds later, he popped up and went running in the direction of the car, smelling all around and went exactly where the car was. He must be a hunting dog or something. Also when he hears a gunshot, he goes running towards it. Love him.

Friday is almost here, have a good one.

So I hopped on the scale this weekend and I have reached my goal weight!!! Well not anymore. I weighed 135 on Saturday and I am 136 again this morning cuz I pigged out yesterday! But I am teetering and I am super close!

Our garden is pretty much belly up. There are a couple salvageable things, but it’s not looking good. We have what seems to be a rabbit eating all our stuff!! Not one pepper plant I planted has been able to grow, 4 total. Broccoli and green beans never had a chance. Corn we had last night and it wasn’t very good. Tomatoes are acting weird and actually look weird coming in. We have one baby watermelon, not sure how long it will last. Squash, basil, italian parsley and zucchini all good.

Next year we will be better and I am going to do something about those pepper plants!!!

What happening. Been away from the blog scene for the last week or so. We went to Tunica, MS for a couple days, it was nice to get away, but the main thing I wanted to do while there was eat at Paula Deen’s Buffet at Harrah’s Casino.

We got a nice room and comped for one night which was nice. We went to Paula’s the first night and it pretty much set the tone for the remainder of the trip, WHICH WASN’T GOOD. The food was horrible, overcooked, under seasoned and made my poor belly hurt so bad, oh my goodness. We were miserable for 24 hours after. Very disappointed. Oh and the ranch dressing on my salad was nasty. If you can’t get the dressing right, then you shouldn’t be in business. Was there anything good to eat????? hhmmm, dessert, oysters, although pretty sandy, bread rolls were yummy. The mac and cheese was horrid!!! Very unpleasant experience. The place is real cute though.

The best salad I have ever had, (sorry Sheri) was at this place next to Paula Deen’s called Replays Sports bar. The salad came with several different types of lettuce, spinach, mixed greens, huge chunks of bleu cheese, yummy tomatoes, those little corns, cucumbers, croutons. I am getting hungry again just thinking about it.

We went to the Tunica Riverpark which has a museum about the Mississippi River and surrounding areas. It was quite interesting, they even have a live aquarium in there. None of the pics of the fish came out good, but here are a couple others.

So last week I found a old friend of mine, he is a doctor. We knew eachother back in Ventura. We are driving down Highway 61 and low and behold, there he was! Too funny.

And lastly, us screwing off with the camera as usual!

ok, who uses Firefox? I stopped with IE a week ago, haven’t had any errors, love it. This is the first time coming to my blog since I started it and now all sidebars show up on the bottom of the blog instead of on the side. If I go into IE, it’s fine, no problems. I have tried lowering the column width, widening the body width. My CSS is valid, no errors. Anyone know what’s up?
