Happy Monday

This was a great and perfect weekend.

Did you ever have an absolutely relaxing, carefree, sleep good, eat good, feel good weekend?  Well, I did - and it was great.

I just want to thank everyone for stopping by and especially you commenters... I love to hear from you and I really appreciate you all.  

Here's to a great week!

Saturday Night

Words of wisdom from Lupies.....

You can always count on them to give it to you straight.

Sunday Afternoon

On Sunday afternoon, I went to get a pedicure.  My nail place is beside a very popular bar called The Selwyn Pub where civic minded residents often gather to watch sports events (like the ACC Tournament).  Actually, everywhere you looked today, people were glued to the game.

When I walked out of the nail salon, I could hear the people at the Selwyn screaming.

Then I scooted on over to Target and when I got to the check out the guy helping looks up at me, with tears in his eyes and says:

"We're losing!"

I said (very gently) "Carolina?"  (helpful hint - nobody in North Carolina means 'Duke' when they say 'We'.  FYI.)

And he said, quietly, tearfully and shaking his head "It's bad!" 

I said "I'm sorry for your loss."

I love March Madness!!

Happy Friday!

Hi!

It's gonna be a great weekend.

First, Daylight Savings Time starts this weekend.  I am so happy about this!  I'm ready for more light and longer days.  Spring is coming. 

The book club girls were over earlier this week and the general consensus is that we're all sick to the teeth of our winter clothes and our pasty skin and are ready for warmer weather and (in my case, bottle) tans....

Second, the weather in Charlotte is forecasting fabulous.  70 degrees and sunny all weekend.  THAT is great.  This lends itself to less winter clothes. 

I'm gonna visit with some friends and hang out with some Beans this weekend.  And, you know, I need to wash my car.  I can't take it to Auto Bell for a couple more weeks due to the recent repair/paint job.  And you know, I dislike cleaning the car.... but I want it clean - so I may have to suck it up on Sunday.  Also - and this is a little known fact, but the Mama doing anything outside of the front door while two Beans are on the inside usually causes a GINORMOUS frap all through the house.  I have no idea why, but if I go out to sweep the stoop, they go crazy in the house.  It'll be interesting to see how much craziness washing the car sets off.

So have a great weekend.  Enjoy the weather wherever you are -

And I'll see you on Monday.
