- Another busy week at work – had a last minute opportunity to go to the Alabama Gerontological Society Conference and was able to hear [the real] Patch Adams – very interesting… [Not a fan.]
- Since I didn’t want to stay overnight that meant driving 2 hours back and forth each day – still, worth it to be home with my sweetie.
- Had a special ‘gift’ when a sweet little girl said my name for the first time – ever! It made me happy. [I cried to see the progress she’s making.]
- Beautiful weekend weather! Lots of things blooming around our yard this time of year – dogwoods, iris, violets, and azaleas. Love it.
- Craig had some time with his mother and fished in a tournament with a new partner on Saturday,
- Drew enjoyed a mud hole in his jeep with some friends,
- And I went to my regular monthly crop. I made ‘Cowboy Caviar’ and it was quickly eaten [easy- peasy: drain & rinse a can of shoe-peg corn and a can of black-eyed peas, add a can of ro-tel tomatoes to the colander [don’t rinse.] Stir in 1/ 2 chopped green pepper, a few chopped scallions, some garlic and cumin, salt to preference. Serve with fritos scoops. Yum.
- It was SO COLD in the room we crop in that I could barley think and only completed 2 pages…
- So I left early and picked up some vegetable plants and went to work in my sunny garden for the rest of the afternoon.
- I also did a little thrift store shopping and found a couple of summer dresses that look brand new [one Cold Water Creek and the other, JG Hook] for about $5.00 each – can’t beat that.

Sounds like you have some great thrift stores to shop in. We really only have a couple here locally, so they are picked over pretty quickly after things go out. My mom is good at going on a regular basis to find new items. I guess I just don't have the patience for it.
I have only been to a couple of crops, and I never complete a thing. I am too busy socializing and seeing what everyone else is doing to concentrate on my own project. As much as I love that, if I really want to accomplish something, I am better off at home by myself. That is why I really like the on-line crops with the Fiskateers.
