The New Orleans Saints Won !!!!!!!!

Hello dear world

Good evening my dear world !!!! I have to say that I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year. I hope that you all got to spend time with your family,friends and loved ones.

I have some exciting news for you that you won't believe. The New Orleans Saints beat the Atlanta Falcons 17-14 at the Georgia Dome. Everyone at my work was tellling me that the Atlanta Falcons were going to win tonight. Everyone was telling me that the Saints did not have a chance in winning. I was cheering for the Saints because everyone was telling me that I was wrong. I am glad that the Saints won they played a heck of a game tonight at the Georgia Dome. I will have to wear my New Orleans Saints shirt tomorrow at work. I am so happy that the game ended the way that it did. Can you believe it my dear world ??? I am so happy for the outcome.

I am sure that other people were cheering for the Atlanta Falcons who did play a good game. However the Saints played a good game and I was rooting for them to win tonight. I was right about the Saints being a good team and I am hoping that they know that I am proud of them for the game. I think that they deserved this win for how they played tonight. This was an awesome game all around. I don't mean to go on and on but I am so excited about this !!!!!!

CONGRATULATIONS NEW ORLEANS SAINTS 17-14 !!!!!!!!!!!

A Wonderful Night....

Hello everyone

Good evening everyone how is everyone today ??? Is everyone done with their Christmas shopping ??? I am and I am glad its all finished. I had to work all this week. I will be off tomorrow and friday and the weekend. A lot of people at my work left early but we had to work kind of late. My coworker's and I got finished.

This evening when I got home I got dressed since my folks and I and my niece's went to Lake Lanier for the Magical Night of Lights. We also went to the buffet which was good. The food was quite good and we all had fun. The christmas lights were amazing. We took pictures inside and my niece Jeanette took pictures of the Christmas lights outside. There were still a lot of people driving in when we were leaving Lake Lanier this evening. We did not go to the Santa village afterwards. We decided not to go. We had fun with going to the buffet and seeing the lights. I had a great time with my family. Its always fun spending time with my family.

So how has your holidays been my dear world ? Have you been busy ? Are you all ready for Christmas as I am ??? I do hope that you all have a wonderful and memorable holiday. I am sure that the stores will be mad busy these next couple of days. Do have a great Christmas and I will be hoping that you all will have a chance to be with your family, friends and loved ones.

Merry Christmas everyone !!!!!

Old Man Winter....

Hello everyone !!!!

Good evening all. How is everyone today ? I hope you are all well. Its been another frosty cold day. It was a busy day at work for me....duh !!!

Anywho...a lot of people at my work have been watching "Eclipse" which is part of the Twilight series. They like it as much as I do. My coworker's are not into it. I thought that there wouldn't be anyone at my work who would like it as I do. I thought that I was about the only person in the world who was a fan of the series.

In other news...tomorrow my coworker's and I will be having a Christmas breakfast at work. I got some doughnuts and some syrup since we will be having pancakes and some other stuff. I also got my coworker's some gifts which I hope they will like.

With how cold it has been outside it might as well snow. I wonder if it cold in other parts of the world as it is here. I do hope that all of you will have a wonderful and memorable Christmas. I hope your week has been a nice one. Your probably wondering if I will ever stop complaining about the cold weather. The answer to that is....probably not.

Tired of me yet my dear world ?????

It Snowed For A Minute...And A Poem

Hello everyone

Good evening everyone. How is everyone on this cold frosty day ???? I hope you are all well. I started reading a Christmas novella titled "A Snowwflake" by Jamie Carie and it was a very good book. The story was set in the year 1897. These two people named Buck Lewis and Ellen Pierce meet during a wilderness trek to a place called Dawson City. Its set around Christmas time.

Anywho...it has been a cold frosty day in my neck of the woods. It snowed for like a minute and then it was gone. I was reading a book by Mattie J.T. Stepanek and I got inspired to write a poem. I have not written in a very long time. I thought that I was never going to write poems anymore but today I did. I wanted to share it with you. I do hope that you like it.

Inspired

Its winter and the snow came today
it was nice to see it
but it decided not to stay.

I would have gone out in the cold
just so I could have walked in it
and watched it sparkle like gold.

Maybe it will come back another day
and it will be such a wonderful thing
and it might just decide that it doesn't want to go away.

Monae' Doyle
A tribute to Mattie J.T. Stepanek

Take care everyone. Happy Holidays !!!!!

Some News...And A Little Rant And Rave

Hello everyone

Good evening everyone !! How is everyone today ? I hope that you haven't become a frozen popsicle. It is become frigidly cold here in my neck of the woods. I am seriously missing the Summer weather something fierce. I am longing for some 80 degree weather and long sunny days with absolutely no cold days.

Anywho...I have been working and staying busy. The Christmas tree is up and decorated. I can't wait until Christmas to come. Its the holiday season and I am enjoying the christmas lights at houses and all of the Christmas decorations going up here and there.

I would like to take this moment to rant for a minute about how I am feeling about a certain issue....I went to Blockbuster this evening to take back my Edward Cullen throw because it didn't come with the tote bag inside. I was given a replacement happily and I now have both the throw and the tote bag. However the guys working there did not like Mr. Edward Cullen which is played by Robert Pattinson. The thing is too many people are hating on the Edward Cullen in Eclipse. I am a Robert Pattinson/Edward Cullen fan which should be obvious by now. Why is it people are not happy to hear that I like Edward Cullen ???? I don't mind that people like Jacob Black. I would like to hear just once for someone to say that they too like Edward Cullen as I do. Can someone please help me out on this one ????? Isn't there one Edward Cullen fan out there ????? Anyone ???? Someone ???? Am I the only one in the world who feels this way ???? Where are my Edward Cullen fans ????????????

Desperately Yours,

Christmas Shopping....And I Have "ECLIPSE"

Hello everyone

Good evening everyone ! I hope you all had a wonderful wonderful Saturday as I did. I just got home a little while ago. My folks and I and my niece Megan went to eat Mexican at La Parrilla which is always good. I had the cheese nachos and (3) soft tacos of which I only ate two of the tacos. The food was very very good.

After eating we went to Kohl's which was packed with people doing their Christmas shopping. I did some Christmas shopping as well. I bought my niece Jeanette some gifts which I am sure she will love. I also got my coworker's something for Christmas. I also bought a gift for my dad for Christmas. I also bought some really funny interesting t-shirts that I liked for myself. My mom found a cute pair of earrings for me and I bought them. I also bought a Yankee Candle pine scented candle for Christmas for our home. I also bought some Christmas ornaments for my Christmas tree at work that I liked. I am not quite finished Christmas shopping but hopefully I will get done.

After Kohl's we went to Blockbuster to get some movies. I rented a movie for my mom. I also rented (2) movies for my niece Megan. I am very hsppy to report that I got the movie "Eclipse" on DVD. I also got the Team Edward throw which I like. The lady working in Blockbuster asked me if I liked Edward or Jacob. She said that she likes Jacob and NOT Edward. How can you NOT like Edward ??? I am a Team Edward fan like mad. I have posters, calendars, bags, stickers and the Twilight books and movies. All of stuff is of Robert Pattinson. There is NO bigger fan than me. I can not wait to watch Eclipse tonight. Does anyone else like Twilight as I do ? I am like obsessed with the whole series. Stephenie Meyer would be proud of me being a fan.

So how was your day my dear world ? I hope your day was a nice one. Did you do any Christmas shopping ???? As Helen and Sybil told me it is never too early to say "Merry Christmas" so of course "Merry Christmas" everyone and the happiest of the holiday season. May you be surrounded by family and friends this coming season. Here is to many many many more Christmases to come.

Take care everyone

It's Friday....And Robert Pattinson

Hello everyone

Good evening everyone ! How is everyone today ? I hope you are all well. It was a busy day at work for me. It is Friday !!!! There was a guy at my work today. He got on the elevator with me. He was a really nice looking guy. I probably should have asked what his name was. We talked on the elevator for a minute. He had a really great smile and a funny sense of humor. I liked talking to him on the elevator. I wonder if he will be coming back to my work. I will have to keep you posted.

On a different note I went to Big Lots with one of my female coworker's. I got some ornaments for our Christmas tree at work. Its not totally finished. I also got a Robert Pattinson calendar while I was there. I am a total Twilight fan. I do like Robert Pattinson after seeing him on the Twilight series. Robert plays a vampire named Edward Cullen. I want to buy the movie "Eclipse" now that it will be on DVD. The movie Breaking Dawn will hit theater's pretty soon and I can't wait to see it.

Of course its been cold in my neck of the woods. I guess Winter is on its way to my neck of the woods. I hope that you all had a nice week. I am hoping that you will all have a nice weekend ahead. Pretty soon it will be Christmastime. I want to wish you all a very "Merry Christmas" and a happy holiday even if it is a little too early to say it.

Take care everyone

A Wonderful Saturday...Getting Out

Hello everyone

Good evening everyone. I am sorry for my previous entry. I was mad about things in the news and what I saw and felt. However I did get out of the house today. I did NOT watch the news so I am in a much better mood today...thankfully. I did go to the stores today and I did some shopping for myself.

First my folks and I and my niece's went to Great Clips so my niece Jeanette could get a little haircut. My mom and I went next door to Wolf Camera to process some pictures we had. Then we went to eat at a Mexican restaurant which was good. I had the taquito's which are always good. My folks had the taquito's as well which they like.

Then we went to Garden Ridge which was fun. I got to look at the Christmas decorations with my niece Megan which she liked. I ended up finding two books which I liked there. One of the books is called "Quest for the Lost City of Gold" by Stephen Biesty. I have to figure out the clues to solve the mystery which is fun. It has a lot of different places you have to travel to in the book in order to figure out the clues. I also got another book which shares stories of those who wrote postcards which I can't wait to read. While I was in Garden Ridge a lady came up with a full cart. I didn't see her coming up behind me. She had a metal chair on top of everything in her cart. It hit me lightly on the back of my neck but luckily no injury was caused. She did apologise for what happened.

After Garden Ridge we got home so we could drop my niece Jeanette since she went out with a friend of hers. My folks and I and my niece Megan went to Macy's. My niece Megan wrote a letter to Santa Claus there since they have a program where the young children get to write the letters to Santa. The proceeds from the letters go to the Make-A-Wish Foundation. The letters are mailed to the Santa Claus station and they get replies from their letters. I looked around Macy's but I did not buy anything there. Did you know that the mall is closed for the holidays at Macy's ????

After leaving Macy's we went to Sears. My mom and I saw a house for her Christmas village however the one we saw on display did not come in a box. We asked them if they would want to sell the one on display and they said flat out NO !! They did NOT want to make a sale so we walked away without further reply. We continued to look in Sears. My dad purchased a DVD player which was nice.

We then left Sears and I wanted to go to Barnes and Noble which we did. I found two nice Christmas books which look wonderful. I can't wait to read them. I also got a book by James Patterson which I had wanted. I also got a Pokemon book my niece Megan wanted. I did get a cute bookmark I wanted. My mom went next door to PetSmart and bought some goldfish for my Catfish to eat as a snack. He is getting bigger every day in the aquarium. He ate all of them and I am sure that he is rather full.

We got home and I fixed myself a ham sandwich. My uncle Noel called and it is always nice to talk with him. He is always happy to hear from us. So how was your day my dear world ? I hope you had a nice one. I hope your weekend was a nice one. I do hope that you all have a nice Sunday ahead.

I will talk to you all again later. Take care everyone.

Mad About Things....

Hello everyone

Good evening everyone. I did not go out shopping at all surprise surprise. Its like freezing here. Its hypothermia inducing fingers falling off, chilled to the bone cold I kid you not.

I have to say that I have been watching some of the news recently and I am quite mad over various issues and things. I am going to issue a warning that if you do not like this posting you can just stop reading this and I won't mind. However I am tired, tired, tired, tired, tired, tired, tired, tired of it all. Maybe I crossed paths with a black cat or it could be a full moon.

Anywho...on the news two women went into the same store and nearly got into a fist fight, people are trampling eachother to get into a store literally. Its like the "Running of The Bulls" in Pamplona what I saw on the news. It also happened that two parents who were older adults took their eleven year old into the store so that they could shoplift. The child was not shoplifting but the parents were. I also have been seeing that North Korea is on the brink of war. What in the world is going on ??? What am I missing here ???? Are we losing our humanity to all of this nonsense ???? Are we reducing ourselves to childish behavior ??? I don't get it and I don't understand any of this madness. A lot of things don't make sense to me on the news or things I see going on. What are we doing to eachother when its the holidays and we are acting like we are not civilized ??? There are still random acts of violence beind done by humans to other human beings. Our troops are still being deployed to Iraq when I heard that the war was over in Iraq.

Can anyone explain this to me ??? Can anyone give me some sense of understanding of this mess ??? It seems like there's no good news anymore. I am so tired of hearing all of this stuff going on in the world every single day of every single hour of every minute of every day.

Can we all just learn to get along during this holiday season....please ???? I hope that we are all learning a lesson from all of this. Are we learning anything ??? Are we ????

I am sorry for going off on a rant but I had to get a few things off my mind before I go to sleep tonight. I hope that all of you will understand that sometimes I just have to vent and get a understanding of things in my head.

Thanks for your patience and thanks for putting up with me this long. I would like to say "Happy Holidays" everyone.

A Nice Thanksgiving....

Happy Thanksgiving !!!!!

Hello everyone good evening. How is everyone today ? I hope you all had a great holiday. This morning my folks and I and my niece's went to church. The mass was really nice. The church choir did a great job performing today. They played the bells today and it was wonderful to hear. Pretty soon it will be Christmas time.

I am reading a book called "The First Love Cookie Club" which is a love story set around the Christmas holiday. There is a woman in this book who is in love with this guy. He broke her heart some years ago and she suddenly has to return to the town where she got her heart broken. I must say that it is a really good book. The story takes place in a Texas town called Twilight.

Anywho....for Thanksgiving we had turkey, a gravy my mom and I made from scratch, baked macaroni and cheese made by niece Jeanette, stuffing, we had shrimp for appetizers, My niece Megan made a cake and it was good. We had a really nice Thanksgiving and I am glad I got to share it with my family.

So how was your Thanksgiving my dear world ? I hope you all had a nice time with family and loved ones. Tomorrow begins the shopping part of the holiday for many. The newspapers are full with sales papers and ads and coupons and hurry up and get here advertisements. Is anyone going shopping tomorrow ??? I don't really feel like waking up early to go shopping I hate that part of it all. There will be a ton of people out in my part of the woods I'm sure.

You might want to know football fans that the New Orleans Saints won 30 - 27 against the Dallas Cowboys. Congratulations to the Saints for a great win. I thought you might want to know if you did not get a chance to see it.

That's all for now. I will talk to you again later. Take care everyone. Have a great weekend ahead. I will look forward to hearing your news. Do keep me posted. I shall return.

Ta ta for now

A Fun Saturday....

Hello my dear world

Good evening everyone. How is everyone today ? I hope all is well in your part of the world. I thought that I would come and share my day with you. It is time for me to share my news with you.

At the moment I am reading "The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society". I am liking the book. It is a very interesting read. It is fun getting to know the people in the book through their letters. I would like to know what a potato peel pie would taste like. I like the people in the book.

Anywho...today my folks and I and my niece Megan went to a place we go to often called "La Parrilla" Mexican restaurant. The food is always good there. My mom and I shared the Texas fajitas with a side of beans, sour cream, guacamole, pico da guallo. We had shrimp in our fajitas. The whole meal was good.

After eating we went to Michael's. I got some Christmas stickers. I also bought some items my mother wanted. Ater that we went to Hobby Lobby. I got some more Christmas stickers for me and Megan. I love looking at all of the Christmas decorations and things.

We left Hobby Lobby and we went to Rite Aid. I ended up getting some Lindt chocolates and some magazines. I have to say that the Thanksgiving holiday is right around the corner. I hope you all are enjoying the holidays in your part of the world.

I do hope that you all had a nice Saturday as I did. Do enjoy the rest of your weekend ahead. I will talk to you again soon.

Take care everyone

Personal Thoughts....

Hello everyone

Good evening dear world. Happy Veterans Day !!! I would like to take a minute to thank our armed forces both U.S. and our British for fighting and serving our country. I would also like to thank our veterans for a job well done. I would also like to say thanks for the families of those who have loved ones in the armed forces for for their support of their work and contribution to our country. They deserve our thanks.

*****Anywho....before I go any further I have to say that this will be a little bit of a personal entry for me. I don't expect any comments for this. I just want to vent some thoughts of mine. I just need to figure out some thoughts of mine. If you wish to not read this feel free to tell me if you would rather me not share these thoughts of mine. *****

The thing is there is this guy I like. I had not seen him in a while and I saw him the other day. He came up to me and gave me a hug. I have always liked him but he does NOT know that I like him. I was with some other people that he knows but he only hugged me. He has never asked me out or asked for my phone number. He is always friendly to me and he talks to me from time to time. I wonder why he hugged me. Today he didn't really speak to me however. Other times he says hello to me and smiles at me. But other times its like he doesn't act like he knows me. I wish I didn't like him. Its hard for me because I happen to like him but he has never shown any interest in me like a guy would who liked a woman in return. It could be me and I would like to think that he likes me. He probably doesn't find me cute or pretty for that matter.

Now that I made you ill with my crap I will go on to more cheerful things. The weather in my neck of the woods has been perfect. Its almost been like Summer never left. Pretty soon it will be so cold that it will feel like my fingers and toes have fallen off one by one.

So my dear world how are things with you ? I hope you are all having a good week ahead. I just hope that I didn't bore you with my senseless venting and all. That's all for now. I will talk to you later.

Take care everyone

A Little Bit of Change Is Uplifting....

Hello everyone

Good evening everyone. I hope you all had a nice Sunday. As you might notice I changed the look of my blog I hope you like it. I also got a new haircut which is a nice change. A little bit of change can alter the way you feel emotionally and physically.

Pretty soon the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays will be coming up. I always like the holidays. What will you be doing for the holidays ? I am looking forward to spending more time with my family. What are the holidays like in your part of the world ?

I do want to acknowledge those of you who stop by my blog and take the time to offer a comment or two. I don't always take the time to thank you or to say how nice it is to hear from you. If you don't want to comment I don't mind just drop in and say hello. I hope that I can lift someone's spirits or I might be able to make someone smile once in a while. A friendly word is often the best when its shared. I hope that I do that once in a while.

So my dear world I hope that you enjoy your time here and I hope that all of you feel free to drop in anytime night or day. Thank you all for listening. Have a wonderful week ahead and I will talk to you again soon.

Take care everyone

Today's News....

Hello dear world

Good evening everyone. I hope you all had a nice Saturday. Its definitely feeling like Winter these days. I went to go get my haircut at Great Clips. I got it cut short because I prefer my hair short. I don't like how she did it but it will be fine I'm sure.

My folks and I and my niece Megan went to Frontera Mex-Mex grill to eat. I had the taquito's which were good. Later on after eating we went to Michael's which is always fun. I got some stickers for me and my niece Megan.

I'm still reading "Happy Ever After" which is the last book in the bridal series by Nora Roberts. Its a good book and I like reading books by Nora Roberts.

In other news my folks are going to the Atlanta Falcons game which will be playing Tampa Bay. My dad of course is a huge Atlanta Falcons fan. So how was your day my dear world ? I hope that you all are enjoying your weekend.

That's all for now. I will talk to you again later. Take care everyone.

News For Sunday...

Hello everyone

Good evening everyone. How is everyone today ? I hope you all had a nice Sunday. I know what your thinking yes its me again. It was a lovely beautiful day outside today. It wasn't too warm and it certainly wasn't cold.

My mother and I and my niece's went to Steak 'N Shake to eat. I had a BLT with no tomato. I also had cheese fries and a caramel apple milkshake. The milkshake was very very good. It had tons and tons of sweet syrupy caramel in it. Is there such a word as syrupy ???

After eating we went to Target. I got (2) cd's by Corinne Bailey Rae and Eminem. I did buy the movie "Julie and Julia" to see it again since I may have misjudged it. The movie is funny though.

I am working my way through the book "Harry Potter And The Prisoner of Azkaban" because I want to read the whole series by J.K. Rowling. We also stopped off at Kaiser so I could get a refill on one of my pills.

Are you listening my dear world ? I am not exactly the world's most fascinating person in the world. My dad went to the Atlanta Falcons game with someone he knows. They played against the Bengals. The Atlanta Falcons won which I am happy to say made my father's day since he is a die hard Falcons fan.

So how was your day my dear world ? Was the weather nice where you are ? I hope you and your loved ones are doing well. Are you out there my dear world ? Is anyone listening ???

Good-night all

Some Shopping....And Harry Potter

Hello everyone

How is everyone today ? I hope you are having a nice Saturday. The weather in Georgia is pretty nice today. Last night I watched "Harry Potter And The Goblet of Fire" which was good. I bought it at Target yesterday. I would like to get some of the other movies as well. Robert Pattinson who plays vampire Edward Cullen in the Twilight saga was in the movie. He did really great in the Harry Potter movie.

I did not finish reading "Second Glance" I am having trouble understanding the book. I did go to Target last night. I got a Beatles t-shirt which my niece pointed out to me. I also got (2) Harry Potter books I wanted including "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" and the other book "Harry Potter And The Goblet of Fire". I also got the book by Becca Fitzpatrick "CRESCENDO". I started reading the book and its pretty good.

I also went to Walmart and I got the book "The Lovely Bones" by Alice Sebold. I heard it was a good book but I have not read it yet. By the way its almost Halloween.

So how are things in your part of the world ? I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. That's all for now. I'll talk to you all later.

Take care everyone

I Am Recovering....And A Movie Review

Hello everyone

Hello dear world !!!! I have some news for you. On Sunday evening I was helping my father with a part of our deck that needed fixing. I was helping him when a piece of metal siding slipped and it hit my mouth.I am not into being an lumberjack or being equipped with any household problems. Though I was hurt but I have been taking pain medication. Luckily I did not have to go to the hospital but I did get hurt. I have been putting an ice pack on my mouth. I have also been staying home from work in order to get better. Do not be alarmed I am getting better.

In other news... I watched the movie "Julie and Julia" and I have to say that I thought that the movie was a little odd. The character Julie Powell was making recipes inspired by Julia Child. Watching her make the different recipes was funny however Julie Powell and Julia Child never met in the movie. I think that it would have made sense if they would have met in the movie. I myself am NOT a cook NOR do I like to cook. I am no Julia Child and I wouldn't come close to being Julia Child.

Anywho....since my mouth has been hurting I fixed me some top ramen which is as close to cooking as I will get. Perhaps top ramen could be considered fine cooking don't you think ?

How are things with you my dear world ? The weather here in Georgia has been nice and it is getting to be wonderful Fall weather. That's all for now. We shall meet again for tea, coffee and biscuits.

Ta ta for now

Sunday Update....

Hello dear world

Good evening everyone. How is everyone today ? I hope you are all well. I do hope that you all had a nice weekend. This morning my family and I went to our church at St. Philip Benizi Catholic Church. We went for mass this morning.

After church we went to IHOP for breakfast. I ended up having hashbrowns, eggs, crispy bacon and chocolate chip pancakes. We did go to JoAnn's afterwards. The Halloween decorations are up. Its almost Halloween. I bought my niece Megan some stickers. I also got some pumpkin stickers. I also got the Twilight saga Eclipse calendar since I like the Twilight saga. I also like the Twilight books.

The weather was quite nice today. It was totally warm and in the high 70's. However it was quite cool this morning. I'm still reading "Sizzle and Burn" by Jayne Ann Krentz which is a really good book. Last night I watched "Harry Potter And The Chamber of Secrets" which is a good movie. I also like the books by J.K. Rowling.

So how has your weekend my dear world ? Are you getting ready for Halloween ? I like Halloween and I happen to like watching scary movies for Halloween. Anywho...have a great week ahead my dear world.

Take care everyone

A Fun Weekend At Stone Mountain Park...

Hello dear world

Hello everyone I hope you are all well. I had a fun weekend with my family at Stone Mountain Park. We arrived Friday evening at Stone Mountain Park.

We got to the campground. My mom cooked steaks and hamburgers on the grill. I had started reading "Harry Potter And The Sorcerer's Stone" by J.K. Rowling. We decided on Saturday that we would spend the day at the park which was quite fun. On Friday evening instead of eating in the RV we decided to eat outside at the campsite. There were a lot of people at the campground.

On Saturday morning we had breakfast at the campsite which my dad fixed for us. We went to Stone Mountain Park for the day. We went to some of the stores there. I went into the Candy Kitchen and I got some sweets. My folks and I and my niece's went to the show there to see "Journey To The Center of the Earth" in 4D which was fun. We did stop off and we got a funnel cake and my niece's got some ice cream. My mom got a license plate for her navigator. There was a pumpkin festival going on there. Lots of young ones were decorating pumpkins. We stopped off at Miss Katie's for dinner. The food is always good at Miss Katie's. We stopped off at the store and I got some souveneirs for my coworker's. I bought my niece Jeanette a pink belt and a cute pink necklace she liked.

We left the park around 8:00pm and then we stopped off at Walmart. I ended up getting a movie called "FROZEN". I also got my niece Megan a movie. I also got the book "Torment" by Lauren Kate. There was a laser show later that evening at Stone Mountain Park.

After going to Walmart we got back to camp and we had a bonfire. I did finish reading "Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone" which was quite good.

Today we had to pack up the RV and we had to leave Stone Mountain Park which is always fun. I always have a fun time camping with my family. I would like to go back to Stone Mountain again soon. This was a great and enjoyable weekend.

How was your weekend my dear world ? I hope your weekend went well. Do take care everyone.

Thoughts.....

Hello dear world

Good evening dear world ! I hope you are all well. It was a rather beautiful day in my neck of the woods. It was another day at work for me. At the moment I am reading "Shadowland by Alyson Noel which is a very good book.

Anywho....I wanted to say that its a shame that certain people would want to protest at someone's funeral. I think that its a shame that individuals have to express themselves in a hateful manner. I think that its important that we understand that one's freedom of speech is one thing but speech that is filled with hate or prejudice is something that can destroy the freedom that we are given. I feel that someone should have the decency to rise above their opinions and their views and to understand that everyone of us has emotions and compassion. After September 11th I think that we need to rise above hate and come to some sort of human agreement to stop ourselves from hurting one another. I wish that things didn't have to be the way they are seeing people act the way they do.

I just wanted to share my thoughts on this. I also wanted to say thanks to our troops fighting for our country. I hope that they are able to come home soon. I do want to offer my condolences to the family, friends and loved ones of Lance Cpl. Matthew Snyder for their loss during this sad time.

Do take care my dear world and I will talk to you again soon.

My Saturday....And New Books

Hello dear world

Good evening everyone !!! How is everyone today ? I hope you are all well. Today my folks and I and my niece's went to Hobby Lobby. I looked around at all of the Christmas stuff and Halloween decorations. I did NOT buy anything however.

After Hobby Lobby we went over to Staples and I looked around the store. I did not need anything from there so I decided not to buy anything. I did go to Walmart with my niece Jeanette. I got a book titled "Fallen" by Lauren Kate and "Hush, Hush" by Becca Fitzpatrick and a book by Lee Child.

I am still reading "Don't Blink" by James Patterson and Howard Roughan. It is a very good book. I like the guy in the book named Nick Daniels.

So how was your Saturday my dear world ? I hope you all had a very nice day today. The weather was nice today and it was nice being out today. I hope you all enjoy the rest of your weekend. My dad will be going to the Atlanta Falcon game tomorrow with a guy that he knows. I will be home watching it on television. My father is a HUGE Atlanta Falcon fan. He loves to watch them play football.

Anywho....that's all for now. Take care everyone.

A Nice Saturday....

Hello dear good evening

Hello everyone I hope you all are well. It was a nice Saturday in my neck of the woods. Earlier this morning I did finish reading "The 8th Confession" by James Patterson and Maxine Paetro. The book was really good and his Women's Murder Club novels are really worth while reading. The book ended very well. The people who got murdered were killed in a very surprising way...I won't spoil the ending if you haven't read it yet.

The weather was pretty nice today. Today my folks and I and my niece Megan went to Red Lobster for lunch. I ended up getting the shrimp alfredo pasta which was quite good. I also got a mudslide drink which was combined with chocolate syrup.

After eating we went to Barnes and Noble. I got (3) books titled "Bone By Bone" by Carol O'Connell and "4th of July" by James Patterson and Maxine Paetro. The other book I got is "Evermore" by Alyson Noel. I also got a book for my niece Megan she wanted. I also got a Halloween bookmark and a Edward "New Moon" bookmark.

A few minutes later we went to PetSmart where I got a ball for my puppy and a bone for him to chew on. I started reading "Evermore" which is a pretty good book. It is about sixteen year old Ever who lost her family in a car accident. Ever can see people's aura's, hear their thoughts, and know someone's life story just by touching them. Everything changes when she meets Damen Auguste. He is an immortal and he is the only one who can silence the noise and energy in her head. She is drawn into his world of secrets and mystery. She is left with more questions than answers.

So how are things in your neck of the woods ? I hope that you all had a nice Saturday. Do enjoy your Sunday and the rest of your weekend. I will talk to you all again later.

Take care everyone

UPDATE....

Hello dear world

Good evening everyone or perhaps goood morning. How is everyone today ? I hope you are all well. I do have some news for you. It was a busy day at work for me today. Anywho...earlier today my coworker's and I which consist of me and three other women. We went to lunch at O'Charlie's to celebrate our birthday's which we are just now celebrating.

I had the loaded potato soup which was very good. It was filled with potato, melted cheese and bacon which was in bits. For the meal I had the Bayou Shrimp which was very good as well. I didn't finish my Bayou Shrimp so I carried it back to work with me. I also had a raspberry tea. At the we got a dessert with our meal which was a very tasty caramel pie which was caramel inside of a graham craacker crust. One of my other coworker's got 4 cinnamon doughnuts.

I of course remain single. I have not met anyone. No one has gotten interested in me. I would like to meet someone but it never happens. So how are things in your neck of the woods ? I hope all is well with you.

I have to tell you that I saw the season premiere of the Fox show "Bones" and I hate to say that I was very disappointed in seeing it. If it remains the way its going with the story line I might not continue watching it. I used to be a huge huge huge huge huge fan but NOT so much anymore.

That's all for now. I will talk to you later. Take care everyone.

This, That and Breaking Dawn.....

Hello dear world

Good evening everyone. How is everyone this evening ? I hope you are all well. It was the beginning to another week at work for me. It was pretty warm in my neck of the woods.

Anywho...I did finish reading reading "Breaking Dawn" by my favorite writer Stephenie Meyer. It was the 3rd time that I have read it and I still like it. It is a good book next to my favorite of them all which is Twilight. If you have not read it you need to read it because you will be surprised. You might however want to read the books from the beginning to understand the story. I have to say that my favorite guy in the book is Robert Pattinson who plays the vampire Edward Cullen. I don't want to give away any spoilers but I have to say that I totally am happy how it ended. I also have to say that I like the movies as well. I can't wait until Eclipse is on DVD. I do want to see the movie "Breaking Dawn" at the theater.

A little while ago my niece's and I had to go to Walmart to pick up a few things. I did pick up the book "Remember Me" by Christopher Pike. I have NEVER read any of his books. I read the back cover of the book and it sounded good. I will have to read it to see what I think of it.

So how are things with you my dear world ? I hope that you will have a good week ahead. Fall will soon be on its way and perhaps some cooler weather as well. How are things in your part of the world ? I hope that you are all enjoying yourselves in your part of the world.

That's all for now. Do take care everyone and I will talk to you again soon.

Some News....

Hello dear world

Good evening everyone. I just want to thank those of you who come to read about my day to day life. I know that my life isn't all that interesting but I just wanted to share my day with you.

Anywho...I wanted to share something with you. Yesterday two of my coworker's and I went on our lunch break and we were at a stop light. We noticed two teenager's in a car which was on the left side of us. The thing is they were so completely happy and so much in love. They were all over eachother kissing and enjoying eachother. I wonder if they were celebrating the day they met or if they were going somewhere special together. I felt that I got to take part in a moment between two people.

Why am I talking about what I saw ? Today I watched a movie called "Letters To Juliet". The movie was about an aspiring writer named Sophie who finds a 50-year-old letter. Sophie sets on a journey with the letter's author Claire and her grandson Charlie. The movie is a love story in itself. Verona, Italy is a very beautiful place. I must say that I really liked the movie and I find that it is a beautiful movie.

In other news today my folks and I and my niece Megan went for lunch at La Parrilla. My mom and I got the Texas fajitas for two. The fajitas were quite good.

After lunch we went to Hobby Lobby. The Christmas decorations and the Halloween decorations were on the shelves isn't that like opposite things ? I got some stickers for myself and my niece Megan that she wanted.

We then took a ride to JCPenney. I did purchase some socks that I needed and a cute t-shirt of a chimp playing a guitar on it. I also watched "Letters To Juliet" again which is a movie that I like. I highly recommend it as a must see movie.

So how was your day my dear world ? I hope you had a reaally nice Saturday. The weather in Georgia was nice and warm. How are things in your neck of the woods ? I do hope that you have a nice Sunday.

Do take care everyone

Some Thoughts....

Hello everyone good evening

How is everyone these days ? I hope you are all well. I have been wondering if I should continue this "Dear Diary" blog. I dont know if there is anyone who really cares about a few things I do from day to day. I doubt if anyone really finds my day to day life all that interesting or worth reading about.

I have always appreciated all of my visitors and friends I met here along the way. Maybe I should take a break for a while from blogging. I will continue to share my book reading on my shelf.

Thanks for listening everyone and take care

Thrift Store Shopping....

Hello everyone

Good evening everyone. How is everyone today ? I hope you all had a really nice Saturday. Today my folks and I and my niece Megan went to Woodstock, Ga to go to the thrift store. I ended up getting two books by James Patterson, a book by Michael Connelly and a book by Nora Roberts.

My parents got some movies, some shirts, my dad got some flip flops and my mom got a picture frame that she got charged a wrong price on for which the manager corrected the cashier. My niece Megan got some Disney classics and got some picture books she wanted. Upon leaving the thrift store one of my flip flops broke and we laughed about it.

I did treat my folks to lunch at a Mexican restaurant. We all ordered taquitos and my niece Megan ordered a hamburger. At the end of lunch I ordered a thing of churro's which were quite good. They had some chocolate syrup dripped on them whith some cool whip on the side.

We did take a ride over to Rite Aid and I got some nail polish I wanted. I got some candy and I even got a new pair of flip flops at the store that my mom found for me which I liked.

All in all it was a nice Saturday. How are things in your neck of the woods ? I did want to mention that I want to say that my thoughts go out to the families and friends of those who lost someone on September 11th. We will never forget that day and we will never forget those who died. I also wanted to say that I hope our troops are doing alright and I hope that they are able to come home soon.

That's all for now. I will talk to you again soon. Take care everyone. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

A great Luau.....

Hello everyone good evening ! I hope you are all well. I have to tell you that my family and I had a nice luau for my niece Jeanette. Some of her friends came over. Some other people came over to our house for the Hawaiian luau. We had a good amount of food. My niece's cake from Publix came out really good. They were able to put her picture on the front of the cake which came out well. I'm glad that my niece had a good time.

In other news I'm still reading James Patterson's 3RD Degree which is a great book. I have always liked his books. His Women's Murder Club series is my favorite. I do wish that he would write another Alex Cross book.

Good evening dear world how is everyone today ? I hope you are well. Today was a really hard day at work for me. My coworker's and I had quite a day and it began with a meeting. I hate to say this but I do let people upset me and I end up getting really sad and upset with myself.

A Wonderful Saturday...And Going To My Favorite Place

Hello everyone

Hello everyone good evening !!!! I have wanted to come and tell you a few things but I have been busy with work and my life. I am now starting to catch up with you all and my reading of course. So how is everyone these days ??

Anywho...Today my folks and I and my niece's went to eat at Frontera Mex-Mex Grill which is good. I got the cheese and bean nachos which were good. There were quite a lot of people there eating.

After eating we took a ride to Great Clips nearby. We went to the camera store first which is right next door. My mom and I and my dad got our hair cut. I got my hair cut spiked because I like it short. After our hair cut we had to go back to the camera store to get our pictures developed which my mom printed out.

We then took a ride over to my favorite place in Morrow, Ga which is Barnes and Noble. I got a couple of good books to read. I also my niece Megan (2) books she wanted and a magazine for my niece Jeanette.

After the bookstore we went home for a few minutes. We then took a ride to the Shannon mall. I got a nice pair of black jeans for my trip to New Orleans with my family this Friday. I do need to find a shirt to wear with my pants.

I did start reading the book "The Whisper" by the writer Carla Neggers. There is a woman in the story named Sophie Malone who is an Archaeologist who is in Ireland. There is also a guy in the story named Cyrus "Scoop" Wisdom. He is a Boston Detective who is also in Ireland. So far the book is pretty good.

There were quite a lot of guys out riding their motorcycle's. I guess since the weather was warm it was probably a nice day to be out riding. So my dear world how is everyone these days ???

I hope you are all doing well. I will try to post more often. Its just been a busy week of doing this and doing that. I will talk to you again soon.

Bye

Some Wonderful News.....

Hello everyone

Good evening everyone. How is everyone doing ? My dear world I have some personal news that I wanted to share with you. I have an Uncle named Noel who my family and I have NOT seen or heard from in a long time.

He contacted us recently and tonight he called while my parents were out. He and I talked for a little while on the phone. He sounds the same as I remember he did. I would definitely like to see him. I wonder if he would remember me if he saw me face to face. He is a part of my family and I have thought about him and I have missed him. I told him that I thought about him on the phone. I also told him that I loved him. It was nice hearing from him on the phone. It is always nice to hear from family especially when you haven't seen them in a while. I have been wondering how he has been doing these days. I have been wanting to talk to him and I finally got the chance. I have NOT forgotten my uncle Noel. I have been wondering about him and if he has been doing alright. I wonder what he looks like now. The last time I saw him I was a little girl. He is still a part of my family and he still someone that I care about a great deal. I am glad that he called I liked the conversation that we had. I hope that we stay in contact and that perhaps one day we get to see one another.

I just wanted to share that with you my dear world. You might not know him about you would like to meet him. He was always such a great person and he was a totally wonderfully sweet person. I am glad that I got a chance to speak to him tonight. There are a lot of things I wish I could have told him. I hope you don't mind me sharing this news with you. I know that I don't often share personal news with you but I wanted to share a little part of my life with you.

Take care my dear world

Update....And Being A Fan Of The Beatles

Hello everyone

Good afternoon everyone !!! How is everyone today ? I hope you are all well. You have probably been wondering where I have been lately and why haven't I posted ???? Well I have been working and working and working and staying busy.

Anywho....it was an extremely hot sticky day in my neck of the woods yesterday. It was like a thousand degrees outside. It was hot enough to fry an egg on the ground. I have to tell you that a few days ago my mom bought me a t-shirt with the "BEATLES" on it. I am a fan of the "BEATLES". I got some people at my work and outside of the work who told me that they either had the record of the shirt I was wearing or that they were also fans of the Beatles. I have always wanted to go a Beatles concert but I have never had the chance.

After work my folks and I and my niece's went to eat at a Chinese restaurant that opened up near my work which is a courthouse. The food was quite good and delicious. My parents also liked the food. I think that the restaurant will do a lot of business with the food they have. I ate quite a bit yesterday.

Once we finished eating we went to a JCPenney store. I ended up buying a black onyx bracelet and a pair of guitar earrings that I will end up turning into a necklace. I also got (2) t-shirts I liked. One of the t-shirts has guitars on it. On our way home from JCPenney it started raining. The sky totally opened up and it rained buckets but it didn't last long.

I went to Walmart later on. I found another Beatles shirt I liked and I bought a book that I wanted. I am currently reading "The Choice" by Nicholas Sparks.

The book is titled "the short second life of bree tanner" by the writer Stephenie Meyer. I have all of her books and I have read them. I can't wait to read this one.

Stone Mountain Park was FUN !!!!!!!!!

Hello everyone

Good evening how is everyone today ? I hope you are all well. My family and I left Friday for Stone Mountain Park which was a nice trip. We first went to the Golden Buddha for dinner. In other news I did finish reading "Carolina Moon" by Nora Roberts which was a good book. I hate to ruin the ending for you but Tory and Cade end up together...sorry for the spoiler.

Anywho...the next day we started our trip with going out to eat at a place called "Metro Cafe". I ended up having the french toast which was quite good. Then we ended up going to Stone Mountain Park. My folks and I and my niece's saw the movie "Journey To The Center of The Earth" in 4D which was quite fun. After the movie we then went and looked in some of the stores at the park.

We decided to go to a place called "Miss Katie's" for lunch in the park. I had mashed potatoes and macaroni and cheese. We then went to take a "Ride On The Duck" which is a boat ride in the park. We did go to one of the stores in the park called "The Candy Kitchen" where I bought some vanilla pecan fudge and some chocolate fudge and some M & M's. We went to one of the other stores and I ended up buying (2) necklaces I liked.

After the park we went to Walmart. I got (2) movies and (2) books I wanted. It was a warm day at the park. The very next day my niece's and I and my dad spent the day at the pool at Stone Mountain Park. The water was nice and it was warm. We got back to camp and my dad put some hot dogs on the grill for dinner. It was a fun night.

On Monday we packed up and left the park. We stopped off at Peco Camper's since our camper needs some minor adjustments to it. Then we stopped off at Chick-Fil-A to eat. All in all our trip was really fun.

How are things in your part of the world ? I hope you are enjoying your week. I will talk to you again soon.

I got (2) books I wanted. I got one book by my favorite writer Diana Palmer and another book by Sandra Bricker titled "Love Finds You in Snowball Arkansas".

We drove home after the bookstore for a few minutes. We then took a ride over to the store IKEA. My father got a few things and my niece Jeanette got a rug for her room and she got another item that she wanted for her room.

It did rain in Georgia yesterday but it did NOT last long. Since its Memorial Day weekend I do hope that our troops where ever they are, are doing fine. I also want to mention the war veterans who fought for our country who appreciate our thanks for a job well done.

Last but not least my puppy Chip who is a Jack Russell Terrier has been sick recently. He has gone back and forth to the vet and he was put on some medicine which he took. He was having nausea and diarrhea and he was not doing well. He is doing much better this weekend. He has been eating quite a bit and he did NOT get sick this weekend at all. I sure hope that he is getting better.

I Had A Wonderful Birthday !!!!!!!!!!

Hello dear world

Good evening everyone !!!!!! How is everyone today ? It was a rainy day in my neck of the woods today. I wanted to share with you all of my birthday. So here it is....

I officially turned "34" years old Thursday. My folks took me and my niece's Megan and my oldest niece Jeanette and her boyfriend Xavier to Benihana in Atlanta which was quite nice. Going there was fun. The food was good. My folks took pictures while we were there. They also had one of the guys who worked there to take a picture of us. My family gave me some really nice gifts which I liked. My gifts included a jewelry necklace holder, a nice candle, a book by Nicholas Sparks and some really nice soaps which looked like chocolate desserts.

Some of the people at Benihana's sang Happy Birthday to me. It was fun celebrating there. After Benihana's we stopped off at Publix where we picked up a few items. My dad bought me a chocolate cake for my birthday. They also bought a vanilla cake for Megan and Jeanette.

Once we got home they sang Happy Birthday to me. It was a really really fun day. At the moment I am reading "House Rules" by Jodi Picoult which is a very interesting book. So how are things in your neck of the woods ? I hope all is well with you.

I changed my blog color since it is getting to be Summertime pretty soon and I am trying to get into the feel for the Summer. I hope you like the blue look to it. Do enjoy your weekend everyone.

Take care.

We Have Returned !!!!!!!!!!

Hello dear world

How is everyone today ? I hope you are all well. I and my family are home !!!!!!!! We got back yesterday evening from our camping trip. We stayed at a place called "Big Lagoon State Park" at campsite #45. We were in Pensacola, Florida which was nice.

The second day of our trip we went to eat at a place called "The Crab Trap Restaurant" which was good. I had a shrimp po'boy which was good. After eating my father and I and my niece's went to go walk near the beach. The sand was sugar white and it is beautiful.

Later on we went to Walmart to pick up a few things. I bought a "New Moon" tote bag since I like the movie. I also got a St. Patrick's Day t-shirt. The next day we went to a Catholic Church in Florida which had a Easter mass.

The next day we woke up and we went to church. After church we found this place to eat called "Seville Diner" which had some very good food. I ordered a stack of pancakes with chocolate chips which were quite delicious.

When we got back to camp my niece's and I went for a walk on the boardwalk nearby. While on the trail we saw a snake which was by a log and it was a big snake. We continued to walk on the trail which was nice. We could not find our way back to our campsite so my folks came and found us. We decided to go to eat at the Oyster Bar and Restaurant which is a nice place to eat on the water. It is right by the marina there. My mom and I had the soft shelled crabs. The Oyster Bar and Restaurant was a nice place to eat.

After eating we went to pick up a few things at Winn Dixie. I got a bone for my dog Chip and a book by Nora Roberts. I finished reading the book "The Last Song" by Nicholas Sparks which was a very good book.

The next day my family and I went to the beach. There were quite a few jellyfish in the water and on the beach as well. I found some hermit crabs in the water. The weather was quite nice. We saw a wren on the beach which followed us around the beach.

After the beach we went to eat at a place called "Triggers". I ordered some soft shelled crabs but they were not as good as the Oyster Bar and Restaurant. I did not order anymore while I was on my trip.

We all got bit up by no see ums while we were on our trip. We put everything and everything we could to stop the itching. We did go to Walmart to pick up a few more things. The very next day my folks and I and my niece's went to a different beach. My dad drove us to another beach which was outside of the park. The weather was really nice.

After going to the beach we went to Triggers to eat. I got a crab cake which I wasn't a fan of but it was alright. I did get a chocolate silk pie which was good. It was another day camp. We went to the Waffle House to eat. After eating my folks and I and my niece's went to spend the day at the Naval Aviation Museum. I saw various planes and I learned about the Hubble Telescope. I also learned some aeronautical history. We got back to camp and we ate dinner at our campsite.

The next day it was supposed to rain but it didn't. My family and I went to the Seville Diner to eat. The food is always good there. After eating we stopped off at The Dollar General. We then took a drive to the Pensacola Dog Track. We ended up finding that the dogs don't run until Friday.

After going to the Dog Track my family and I decided to go the Shrimp Basket which is a tiny tiny place. I got the fried crab claws but they were not my favorite either.

We did go to the library there in Florida and I bought two books for a $1.00. My niece Megan got to rent some movies. We stopped off at CVS before going back to camp. We made plans to go back to the Dog Track the next day.

The next day we spent the day at the beach which was outside of the state park. The weather was quite wonderful. I got to fly a kite at the beach. We also spotted some dolphins that were swimming in the ocean which was fun to see. I got in the water and I got some seashells while I was there.

After the beach we got back to camp and took our showers. We ate hot dogs at camp. A little while later we went to the dog track. We won a little bit of money back at the track. Once the dog track ended we took a ride to a ice cream parlor which was closed. We decided to stop off at a little Chinese restaurant and then we stopped off at Sonic's to get some ice cream.

The next day which was Saturday we packed up the trailer and we left the state park. We did not get home until 9:00pm. The weather was nice on our way home. Once we got home my folks and I went to eat at Longhorn Steakhouse while my niece's stayed home. My mom and I ordered the ribeye which is always good. We then got to share a dessert which was the chocolate stampede. It is a dessert of two slices of chocolate cake and 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream. The dessert was very very delicious.

We are already talking of going camping somewhere else pretty soon. I can't wait to go camping again. So how are you my dear world ? How are things in your neck of the woods ? I will talk to you all again soon.

Take care everyone

Good evening everyone !!!!!!! I hope you all had a really nice Sunday. I had a nice day today. Early this morning my family and I went to church for Palm Sunday. I bought (2) bracelets that I liked at church.

After church we went to IHOP for breakfast. Then we went over to Staples where I bought some ink and a journal I liked. I also bought a book for my niece Megan wanted for her stickers.

We also took a ride over to JCPenney nearby. I ended up buying some t-shirts I liked and a new purse I wanted for Springtime. My purse has Spring colors in it and I like it a lot.

It did rain earlier today but later on the rain left. It was a little cool in my neck of the woods. I did some picking up in my room today which it is looking good in my room.

A Little Bit of Shopping....

Hello everyone

Good evening everyone !!!!!!!! How is everyone today ? I hope you all had a really nice Saturday. It was a little cool today in my neck of the woods. Today was a wonderfully fun day. My folks and I and my niece's went to Buckhead for the opening of "Just Loaf'n" which was a bust. They didn't have any shrimp or crawfish prepared. The oyster sandwiches that my folks ordered apparently was not good. I ordered some beignets but they were nowhere close to tasting like the ones in New Orleans.

Anywho....since "Just Loaf'n" was a bust we decided to go to Discover Mills Mall in Lawrenceville, Ga. which is located on Sugarloaf Parkway. They have a Bass Pro Shop there that includes the mall. My dad stayed in the Bass Pro Shop while my mom and I and my niece's decided to walk the mall. I found some magnets at a store called "Earthbound Trading Company" which is a very fascinating store. They have stuff there from all over the world. We went into another store which had some chinese items and I ended up finding a plant to go in my room. My mom also got a plant that she wanted.

We walked around in some of the various stores which was fun. We eventually ended up at "Books -A- Million". I ended up finding (2) books there titled "Between the Tides" by the writer Patti Callahan Henry and "House Rules" by Jodi Picoult. We did walk back to the Bass Pro Shop to meet up with my dad. I did buy some Pokemon cards for my niece Megan at the store. She is into Pokemon. I also bought a book for my mom for her coins that she collects.

After Discover Mills mall we went to "The Varsity" to eat. Its always fun to go there and eat. The food is always good and their frozen orange drink is always good to drink. The place is always always packed and busy.

In other news I did finish reading "The Girl Who Chased The Moon" which was a very good book. I am about to start reading "Between the Tides". So my dear world how was your day ? How are things in your neck of the woods ? I hope you get to enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Take care everyone

Update....

Hello dear world

Good evening everyone !!!!!!!!! How is everyone today ? I hope you are all well. I have quite a bit of news to share with you. Yesterday my family and I went to JCPenney Outlet and I bought a t-shirt, some Vanilla amber room fragrance and a bone for my Jack Russell Chip.

After we went to Barnes and Noble and I got three books including the book "The Girl Who Chased The Moon". After the bookstore my folks and I went to go get our haircut at Great Clips. My hair is a little shorter than it was before.

Once we got home from Rite Aid my niece's and I went to Blockbuster and I got the movie "New Moon" which I wanted to see.

Anywho....today was a wet, grey rainy day in my neck of the woods. My folks and I went to the Monastery in Conyers, Georgia. It is a very very peaceful place there. I got my mom (2) medallions one of them was a Padre Pio medallion. I also got her a Saint Benedict prayer book. I also picked up a few things including some prayer cards. I also bought some Maple Walnut Fudge that the monks make homemade. We did go into the Bonsai garden and my mom got some Bonsai trees. Here is the link to the Monastery -----> http://www.trappist.net/

My dear world I do need to work on my forgiveness skills. I tend to not forgive people easily and I find it hard to let go of my anger sometimes. I will work on that.

After the Monastery we stopped off at Home Depot to pick up a few things. We got home just in time because the rain started coming down pretty hard. About 8:00 in the evening I went out on the deck in our backyard and I looked up to see a rainbow. I immediately called my mother and my niece Jeanette to see it. My mother and father saw and both of my niece's saw it. It was the most beautiful rainbow I have ever seen in my life.

So how are things with you my dear world ? How are things in your part of the world ? I do hope that you all have a great week ahead. I will talk to you all again soon.

Take care everyone

I HAVE RETURNED....

Hello dear world

Good evening how is everyone ??? I am sorry that I have NOT been around lately. I have been quite busy with working and getting some things done in my bedroom which needed doing. I had quite a lot of work to do in my room that just could NOT wait any longer. My room is finally done and I am loving it. I have a beach theme in my room which I am enjoying.

Anywho....on March 10th of this year at St. Philip Benizi we had a parish mission at my church. We were visited by two very wonderful people named Jerry and Cricket Aull. I have to tell you that they are two of the most greatest people to come to our church. Jerry I must admit is a very very very very very talented musician. My mother and I fell in love with his music and I have two of his CD's which I love. He has the greatest singing voice in the entire world. They have a website you can check out at JerryandCricketaull.com which you should go over and visit. They both taught me a lot of things while visiting our church. While he was there he had us introduce ourselves to people that we have never met before and I did. I met this woman named Terry and she was a very sweet person.

I am still busy at work these days of course. I have been working and my family is doing well. My family and I are planning to go to Pensacola, Florida on the week of April 5th. We have NOT been to Florida in quite a while so it should be fun.

So how are things with you my dear world ? Did anyone miss me while I was away ? How are things in your part of the world ??? I do hope that all is well with you where you are. That's all for now. I will talk to you again soon.

Take care everyone
