Chilaxing on Sunday

Syd and Ace... I love his ears!

Waking from a nap, Ace realized Toad was on the other side of my leg. Seconds later Toad tried to kill him, but all she accomplished was biting my thumb. We're making a little progress each day... soon they will be best buddies!

Strike Up The Band!

Mary and I went to Covington, Kentucky last week to see Gary's band play at Chez Nora. On the way home we stopped at The Anchor for some late night eats. Who knew we'd get another show for free! This band played all night (along with the juke box.)

Seriously, everytime the jukebox played a new song, the lights dimmed, the curtain openned and closed, and Barbie struck up the band. Take a close look...Barbie and Ken are in there!

SOLD!!!

I won't be needing those keys anymore... My condo officially sold on April 11th. The check cleared a few days later :) Ahhh...I feel relieved that I don't have to come up with mortgage $$$ every month but I so miss my condo, my neighborhood, city life, and all my friends.

Here's to a new beginning!

Happy Birthday To Me!

I celebrated my 45th birthday with my brother, sister-in-law, and the kids. They dressed me in this hat then took me out for Mexican food. Everyone in the restaurant kept wishing me a happy birthday  and I couldn't figure out how they knew. Duh!




After dinner we headed home for cake; baked by Kathy and decorated by Syd.




They remembered that I like LOTS of canned vanilla frosting.



And of course they sang...
