Lucy's New Do

I'm on a roll today.

Lucy had her grooming session. I leave her shivering and she comes back so excited and happy!



I loved the bows they put in her hair for Halloween.

My Favorite Selfie (so far)

It was a beautiful fall day on Friday. I don't want winter to show up but a cloudy cool fall day is awesome!

Battle of the Burger

Our local adult handicap facility hosted a fundraiser called Battle of the Burger. There were 8 restaurants creating burgers for us to judge on.

They were all good. Here's a 'morning after' burger which had pork sausage, egg on a waffle.






There were root beer floats also. Yum.






The event was at Cowtown. I hadn't been there before and it was interesting to look at everything.

First Time in the Balcony

This weekend we are kidless. So last night we headed out to watch a double feature. The first movie was 'Dracula Untold'. It was interesting.

Our second movie was 'The Judge'. It was really good. And we watched it from the balcony. They have loveseats and a personal server. We had coffee and ice cre since it was late in the day. It's $8 more a ticket but it was worth trying once.

Oh Reggie...

This is my 16 year old kitty last night. After eating beef wet food, she kindly barfed twice. On. The. Carpet. Never mind there is tile in the bathrooms and linoleum in the laundry room. Guess it was too far away.
So glad I love her.

Oh To Be the Parent of a Fourth Grader

I've been debating on this post.  It makes fun of my sweet girl, but it's too hard to pass up. 

1. She hates to wear deodorant.  Jeff tells her she must do it, but because I'm the one waking her up, she will refuse. And honestly, I don't have the fight in me on this battle.  So Monday we were talking to her PE teacher at school and he was discussing other kids who are stinky (not L) and the subject of deodorant came up).  So I went home and told her Mr. Hinton says you have to wear deodorant.  And guess what, she does!!

2. She has a couple boys in her class that like her and she tells me daily how they drive her crazy asking "do you like me?". She tells me, I want to say no so they'll stop, but I hate to hurt their feelings.  Oh, she's got a long road ahead of her.

3. Last week at the kitchen table, L is working on her homework.  She tells me Lucy is "gross".  I asked why and she said Lucy licked her on the eye.  I told her Lucy just loves her and is being friendly.  She responds, "do you lick daddy on the eye when you are having S-E-X ?(she won't say the word sex, it's always spelled out like it's a cuss word).  "Ummmm.....no", I replied.  Without missing a beat she says, "then Lucy isn't being loving".  Well, okay then. 

My confession

I have an apple obsession.



I love apples. But I am super picky. I like apples that are crisp with good flavor. I hate red delicious (mushy and flavorless). I've been through almost all the flavors. I used to love galas but they taste like water. I like Jazz and pink lady when that's the best options. I LOVE honey crisp apples. They are sooooo delicious. This year I bought a new version called Envy. They were really good. Tonight I loaded up on honey crisp and bought a couple of sweet tangos. We will see how they are.

So that's my confession. I ❤ apples.
