Baby It's Cold

What in the world? Today the temperature was only in the high 40's and of course quite windy. Rain started around 4pm but seems to have stopped. But they say we could see some snow as low as 3k. This crazy weather could stick around for another week or so.

Yesterday was my birthday and it was grand. Plans to do a breakfast at my house fell through because it was so cold and my grandson didn't want to wake the kids up that early and bring them out in the cold. I totally understood that. So Tracy and I went out and had breakfast at one of our Sunday places, plus she gave me a really nice pair of PJ's and heart earrings. I had receive a e-mail from Kirkland's that I had a free gift and a 25% off coupon there. So hey I don't turn down free gifts. So off we went to Kirkland's. I picked a free candle and bought a little sign that says Live the Dream and a little picture holder that looks like a piece of white birch branch. We headed on home after that and Tracy took off as Anthony asked if I would be home later in the afternoon I told him I would be home until around 5 pm. So he borrowed his mom's car and brought the kids over. My little guy was carrying a bouquet of flowers and  little Arianna was holding the card, plus a huge cheese cake with 4 different kinds of cheese cakes. We visited for a while then their mom came for them and Anthony and I went over some plans for the camper. He put the shelf over the other wheel well and re glued the carpet to the side wall of the truck. Also glued the legs back on to the shelf as I knocked one off then the other one fell off as well. 

I was showing him CheapRVliving video's and he was amazed at what some people do to live in their mini vans and some in their cars. And they are mostly women. He wants to help me set up the camper but it's hard because he doesn't have a car and I can't really pick them up because I only have a 2 seater truck. The only time he is available is weekends as he is working to 2 jobs so he can save enough money for a decent car and not have payments. Smart kid.

Then my daughter Debbie arrived and they hadn't seen each other in a very long time so that was nice and she had Miliany with her and Anthony hadn't seen her since she was very little. He couldn't believe how tall she is. After we said our good byes Debbie and I headed out to dinner and that was a wonderful meal at a place called Cheddars. I had baked fish with shrimp over a bed of rice and slaw and fries in the side. I didn't eat much of the fries as the dinner itself was so filling and we had a spinach dip also. And Debbie  gave me a pretty little gold bracelet.

It had gotten really cold by time we left but Debbie has a really good heater in her car. So all in all it was a great birthday.

Today I just kind of stayed indoors as it was so nasty and cold with lots of dampness. I just went out to clean up the yard since tomorrow is trash day and I had a bag of dead stuff and junk from the shop vac so brought that around to the trash can.

Good Night All
