Bad weather here means no post unless I stay up until the front passes (if it does..) or we get a small break in the weather at least. Unfortunately, I fell asleep so......
I did go to the store yesterday to buy some elbow macaroni, canned shrimp, celery and more mayonnaise so I could make some shrimp salad for us. I finished it before the Beast got home from church but it still hadn't gotten cold enough to enjoy. We decided to give it an hour although it's actually best the next day when all the flavors have blended well. It still tasted wonderful.
The rest of the day, I spent playing my Jewel Quest 2 game off and on. We had only one short power failure and the rest of the day was just nasty. The kind of day I hate....overcast, dismal and humid in between rains.
Today is a LOT nicer....clear skies, sunny and hotter than hell...ROFLMAO! It's 92 outside and even Baron just runs outside to pee and hurries back to be let inside the house where the AC is on. It's so funny to watch!
The Beast went outside with his baseball hat on to try to do the edging (it needs it but I know better than to try to talk him out of it on such a hot day). That's a real futile effort. The heat drove him in faster than I could have.
Oh, a little funny to share. The Beast's friend from church, Jason, has a young teenage daughter that normally lives with her mother (his first wife) in Michigan. But she spends as much time down here with her father, step mother and step siblings as she can. The mother finally decided she might as well stay with them all the time so she told him to come get her and she would sign over full custody to him so as to keep the disruption to a minimum. She hadn't been here for several months so one of the things she asked her father when they were headed back down here was, *Is Mr. Beast still alive???* ROFLMAO! The Beast didn't think he looked THAT old! When he told me, I couldn't help it...I laughed out loud without thinking. He got this terrible look on his face but didn't say a word. I smiled for a couple hours just thinking about how it looked to a young teenager.
Love you all. Hope you are having a fantastic Labor Day holiday. Some of you will be having tomorrow off, too, I understand. Enjoy! ***Hugs***
