6/23/13 ** Just changed the name of my blog. I am now officially an empty nester ** My countdown started in 2009 to becoming an empty nester as my youngest was headed to college. Now I just blog about whatever I feel like for as long as I feel like...

Happy Easter
Okay Easter is just about over but thought I needed to say it. We had a nice visit with the youngest and her boyfriend. We gave her a little Easter basket with some candy in it. Hubby also got a few extra Cadbury eggs as I like those.
I did work about 5 hours today but that was it for the weekend. It was nice and relaxing not working for once for most of the weekend.
The youngest and I went to visit my mom and dad today for about an hour. It was a nice visit. I took them an Easter Lily plant so that we didn't go totally empty handed. It was a nice visit and my dad seems to be doing pretty well.
It started out drizzly and not so cold today but then got colder and dropping into the 50's. We didn't have to turn the heat on but we didn't leave the back porch door open either. Tomorrow is suppose to get up to the mid 80's, so it will be nicer than today for sure!

Lazy Saturday
This picture says it all! :-) Lazy Day. I am not working one bit today. Have a hair appointment this morning, nothing big just a trim. Growing out my hair but I don't think it will ever get as long as hubby's! His hair is really long now. I'll post a picture sometime. I don't mind that his is long as he keeps it back in a pony tail all the time. He never got it cut very often and it would quickly take on a scraggly homeless person sort of look. One day I asked him if he ever thought about growing it out again as he said he grew it really long when he was in his 20's like down to the middle of his back. So I sort of challenged him to see if he could do it again and it grows fast! It has to be 7 inches long from his neckline. Not fair! My hair only grows to a certain length and then it starts splitting.
So off to get some breakfast. Have a great Saturday everyone!

Almost forgot
I almost forgot to blog today because the youngest is here and we are visiting! Okay we are watching Blue Bloods and I'm on my laptop and the youngest is on her iphone...on and off but yah we're visiting. :)
I took a nice walk after work with Ditzy. There are a few houses with 'Coming Soon' For Sale signs on them. This seems to be the trend lately I guess to get offers before they actually get officially listed. Sometimes the signs go down before the Coming Soon portion goes away. Oh well. Then we have some houses that are bought only to be flipped. That is happening to a house around the corner now. It is one of the houses that has one of those 'Coming Soon' signs and they only moved in I think around October.
There are bound to be a few more houses going on the market soon since 'tis the season. Would like to see how much any one of them are being listed for, so we'll see.

Good Friday eve
Yes it is Good Friday eve' but I do not have Good Friday off. That's okay. At least the youngest is coming to visit finally! It has been since Christmas. Oye!
It looked like it was going to rain today off and on and never did, at least not yet.
I haven't talked to dad much this week but I think he is fine with using the bag. Hopefully he is eating, and drinking as much as possible! I will be visiting him this weekend and checking up on him. I'm planning on asking the youngest to come with us as I know dad would like it.
Well I'm off to go watch the rest of Elementary before turning in for the night.

Nice Evening..
Actually the whole day was nice. Started out looking threatening like it might rain but it didn't. Then it cleared up. And tonight for the first time in a long time I watched the sunset from the balcony. The sky had some pretty pinks and bluish purple colors going on in the clouds. Very pretty! And it is still 72 degrees outside.
This morning I had a nice treat for breakfast. Hubby was going out to run an errand anyway and asked me if I needed anything. Instead of the usual reply that I didn't, I said "Yes!" How about a Sonic Mocha latte and cinnamon filled pastry that you dip in the white icing. Yum!! Talk about a sugar rush but hey it was a nice treat and much more satisfying that cereal this time.
I did get my walk in after work though so was able to use some calories there. LOL
Nashville is on pretty soon! Hope to hear some good singing. Nite!
