Evening with friends...
We slept until 9am this morning. We had breakfast and I finished the last 2 loads of laundry. I then started power washing the back side of the house and one thing lead to another and I was power washing the back patio. it was not on the agenda for today, but it got done. It was so hot and I was so glad when I was done. Beth worked on the Tiki bar and got it all cleaned up. We then went swimming and the water was really warm. We then took showers and went over to Dawn and Jo's house. We put Rylee's trampoline together and she had a great time jumping up and down. We had dinner and great conversation.

It was a hot one today....
We had a really good lightening storm last night around 5:30am. It produced very little rain , but had lots of lightening and wind. We lost electricy for around 3 hours, but came back on around 8:30am. So needless to say we did not have a good 8 hours of sleep. I was up around 8:15am and it was already 82 degrees out. Everyone got up around 9:30am and I fixed pancakes for breakfast. Kyle went outside to powerwash the steps, back patio, and the pool fence. It was hot, but aleast, he was playing in water. Beth went out to get the leaves from the pool and set the timer on the sweeper. After finished and took a shower, we took him home and went to get Lynne's car. when we got there, the car would not start and the security light was flashing. So we left it there and came home. We both took nini naps and then went to Kim's to water. I am doing a load of laundry to try and cut sown on the heat for the next couple of day. It will be high 90's low 100's the next 4 days, so we will be doing things inside to stay out of the heat.

Inside Cleaning...
We did not get up until 8am this morning. I took a shower and then went to go pick up Kyle around 9am. Kyle started on the fence and Beth and I went over to Kim's to water. We got home and had a quick breakfast. Kyle came in around 12:30pm and said he was done with the fence. Beth was doing a major cleaning to the living room. I made some lunch and Kyle went play on the computer and Beth was still cleaning. I made some dessert for dinner. It was mini s'more pies. Easy to make and we tasted one and boy was it good. We all split one and it was very rich. Beth and I went down to roll up the pool cover and found Kyle forgot to do the inside of the pool fence, so he will have some more to do tomorrow. Silly boy. I went to pick up Rylee from school and Beth made dinner. I like this new Thursday dinner routine. We had hamburgers and buttered noodles. Rylee ate good and we went swimming afterward. Jo came over to pick up Rylee around 7pm. Kyle and I watched a movie and it was just OK. Don't have to buy it or watch it again. Kyle is spending the night, so I will not have to get up early tomorrow. Yea me...

Doors are done...
We were up at 7am again this morning. I picked up Kyle and her started working on the inside of the fence. Beth and I had breakfast and went outside to work on the doors. Beth painted and I tore apart the frames and the front panels and made then smaller pieces for the trash man. I then went to the store and got fried chicken for lunch. Kyle was done for the day and Beth had just finished the painting. We had lunch and Beth and I went back outside. We attached the trim, handles, and inside lock. You really can't tell a difference, which is what we wanted, except we can lock it now. We came in around 3:30pm and took showers. We left to go watch Payton race. He started out good, but some kid hit him twice and the second time did a real number on his car. It needs some welding and realignment done. He still managed to get a 3rd place trophy and was all good with it. We then went to Target to get some big water guns. We found we like having water fights in the pool, but needed better guns. As you can see from the picture, we are ready now. We then went across the parking lot to the Wicked Effects car show. The are one of Payton's sponsors and had his car and trophies displayed. We are now home watching the Phillies get their butt handed to them. They had no starting picture today as the rain out and and one pitcher short cause a problem. So we are using all of the bull pin pictures. It is 8 to 5 so we will see if they can pull a win out . I told Kyle we were sleeping late in the morning and I would pick him up around 9:30pm. I miss sleeping late in the mornings.

Shed doors are on...
We were up again at 7am this morning. I went and picked up Kyle and we then went to Pep Boys to exchange the battery. It is strange that the same battery with the posts reversed, cost me a dollar more and did not have a carrying handle. We came home and Kyle put the battery in the spot and I hooked it up. We came inside and Beth and I had breakfast. Kyle went out and started working on the rest of the outside of the fence. After breakfast, Beth and I went out to work on the shed doors. We had to cut and adjust and cussed alot, but the doors are up. They have to be painted again and the trim put on. We will finish it up tomorrow and be done with it. Kyle finished cleaning the outside of the fence and will start on the inside tomorrow.

Fence Cleaning
I got up around 7am this morning. I was hoping to see rain, but it was only cloudy. I got dressed and headed to pick up Kyle. He called me on the way to say it was pouring rain. So I pickup him up and the rain was letting up. Beth and I had some breakfast as Kyle was not hungry. around 10am the rain was don and Kyle got started on cleaning the fence.He started power washing the outside first. Beth and I worked on the shed doors. We got all the cutting done and Beth got the painting done. We just need to attach the frame to the door siding and should be able to install them Wednesday. We had lunch and then Kyle went back out to get to the stopping point he wanted to get to today. As I got ready to take him home, my truck would hardly turn over. It did the same thing this morning and also yesterday. So after I took Kyle home, I took the old battery out of the truck, so we could get a new one. We came in side and took showers and I fixed dinner. I tried a new pasta side dish. It had cork screw past, corn, garlic, cheese, and zucchini in it. It was good. We then had to go to Kim's and water again. and then went to get a new battery. We went to install the new battery and found the post were on the wrong side, so I will have to exchange it tomorrow. So we got a little rain today and it was only in the mid 70's, but it will be back to 90's by the week-end.

A day in the pool...
Beth go tup too late to go to 8am mass. So I took a shower and we had breakfast. She then went to 10:30am mass and I went downstairs to work on scrapbooking. Beth got home around 11:45am and said Dawn adn Jo were coming over to go swimming. So we had some lunch and got changed. Beth went to the beer store as she was out of beer. Dawn, Jo, and Rylee got here and Beth was right beind them. It was a perfect day for being in the pool. We had a water fight, but were short on water guns, but still had a great time. We fixed burgers and dogs on the grill and then went swimming again. Dawn and Jo left around 6:30pm as Rylee was starting to wear down. So now we are resting and watching the second game of the Phillies double header after losing the first game. Kyle will start scrubbing the fence next week, so it will be all clean for the July 4th party.

A day of rest...
I got up around 7:45am this morning. I cleaned the kitchen and started a load of laundry. I had breakfast and Beth got up around 9:45. I took a shower and went to GNC and the grocery store. I came home and we had leftover pizza for lunch. I cleaned the living room, dining room, and the bathroom. I did 5 loads of laundry and it is finally all done. We made steaks for dinner and foil potatoes. After dinner, we went over and watered Kim's plants. It was noce to be inside and do nothing. Ok it does not seem like I did nothing, but it was alot better than working outside in the heat. So tomorrow will be a day of working or the scrapbook and swimming.

Afte about an hour, my shirt was soakin wet. We worked until 1pm and then had some lunch. By 3pm, they had finished the tree and I was done for the day on the doors. It was now swimming time. We talked to Dawn and she was already in the driveway. We got into the pool and boy did it feel nice. The water temperature was 92 degrees. Dawn decided to go get Rylee, so she could swim also. Jo was able to join us and Beth went to get pizza and beer. The clouds started to roll in and it sprinked as we were eating pizza. I took Kyle home and it really started to rain. It did cool off everything. Rylee was starting to fall asleep, so Dawn and Jo left. We are not truing to stay awake until 9pm, as if we go to bed now we will be up early and don't want that to happen. So it was another great day, but hotter than heck.

A Good Day...
We were up at 7am this morning. I picked up Kyle and we went to get gas and then home. The temperature was already on the rise. Kyle had already had breakfast, so he went out and started on the weed whacking. After Beth and I had breakfast, we went outside. Beth started on the front yard. Kyle was just about done with his weed whacking. So he took a break and went with me to Lowe's. We got the stuff to build the shed doors. After we got home, he finished his mowing and Beth finished hers. I made some lunch and Beth went to clean the mower and Kyle and I went to swim. The water was nice and the temperature was near 100. Beth joined us about 30 minutes later. We swam for about a couple hours and got changed. I took Kyle home around 2pm. I picked Rylee up around 4pm. Beth made spaghetti for dinner. So we ate as soon as we got home and then the 3 of us went swimming. Rylee helped me water the flowers and we then came in around 6:45pm. Jo came to pick up Rylee around 7:45pm and Rylee was ready for a nap. So today was a very good day.

A day with Jojo...
We were up around 9am this morning. I took a shower and we were just having breakfast, when Lynne dropped Jojo off. I had to run to the grocery store as they had Gatoraid on sale and needed some. I then came home and the pool guy was here fixing the pool. We were losing water from the backwash handle. Beth and Jojo got in the pool as it was already 85 degrees. I went to BJ's whole sale club and came home around noon. I fixed hotdogs on the grill for lunch. We all went downstairs to place Wii for awhile. Kima and Lynne came to pick Jojo around 5pm. She was going to hockey practice and then they were heading to the beach for the week. I made stuffed peppers for dinner and they were just ok. It was a hot one here today and got to 94 degrees with tomorrow going to be the same. Beth played with the cotton candy machine and made some really good cotton candy. We are going to hav ea carnvial in August and this will be really good.

Yum Yum...
I got up around 8:30am this morning and Beth was up about an hour later. I made waffles for breakfast and they were good. We took showers and Beth had to leave around noon. She had to go with her brother to sign some papers for the condo. I worked on ordering some carnival stuff for our carnival we are going to have in August. I had the other half of my cheese steak for lunch. Beth came home around 1:30pm. Our chase credit card company called to say there was a charge on our account that was suspicious. So now we had to cancel our card and wait a week for a new one. And then change everything that is monthly being charged. What a pain in the butt this is going to be. So we left around 3pm to go to Reading. We went to the Restaurant store to get some cotton candy mix and some nacho trays. We then went to Chipotle's and got dinner. we then went to BJ's wholesale club to get some ham and roast beef, but found they do not have a deli service. Who knew???? So we came home and had dinner and are now watching the Phillies game. The temperature is getting hotter by 10 degrees every day and going to be 95 or better for the next few days.

Rotten...
We were up around 7:30 am. we had appointment to see Dr. Bill at 9am. As we were leaving, we noticed the highway was backed up. So we took the long way around and found there was accident on the highway and had one lane closed. After seeing Dr. Bill, we went to Lowe's to look for quarter inch plywood. They did not have what we wanted so we looked at Trex decking. We came home and took one of the shed doors off. We were hoping to take off the rotten plywood and replace it, but after taking it off we found that the frame boards were rotten also. So we called the fencing company to see if they had just the doors we could get and are waiting to hear back form them. We took the plywood of the other door and set the hinges back on it and put it back up on the shed for a little protection. Hopefully we will hear back form the company tomorrow.

I called my step dad to wish him a Happy Father's Day. I spent the rest of the afternoon scanning pictures for my new project. Beth watched the Phillies lose again and took a nap. I fixed flat iron steak on the grill and foil potato and onions. We then went to Daily Queen and got ice cream after dinner. We then spent some time talking about the new deck we want and what we think would need to be done.

All day with Rylee...
We got up around 8am this morning. We took showers and Rylee was here around 9am. We watched a little TV and then went shopping at Lowe's. Rylee had a great time looking at the flowers and playing with the water in the fountains. We walked around for about 40 minute and then came home. We had lunch and had a little issue with Rylee and spitting food. So she was removed from the table to bed. She was so not tired, so we went for a swim. We put on her life vest and she swam all over the pool. About an hour later, she was now ready for bed. She slept until 3:30pm and was up and ready to go. We had some people look at the lot across the street from us for the 3rd time. Dawn and Jo came to pick up Rylee around 5pm. The were heading to Reading for a baseball game and Rylee was all excited. So today was a good day and we had a good time with Rylee.

Alot of stuff done...
We were back up at 7am this morning. I went to pick up Kyle at 8am. The grass had some dew on it, so we had some breakfast. We went down to roll up the pool cover and clean it off as we rolled it up. Kyle then started on the weed whacking, I pulled weeds and Beth worked on the riding mower. We had some breakfast ans then I started laundry. I cut down the rose bush in the corner of the yard. It was just not working and keep getting black spot, so down it came. Kyle finished everything her needed to do around 2:30pm, so I took him home while Beth finished cutting the front yard. When Beth finished the front yard, we went over to Dawn and Jo's house. We went going to do some power washing on the top side of there house to remove some mold. We could not get to the area needed, so we will have to bring a ladder over to finish. So we went ahead and power washed the front entrance area. We were on our way home and Dawn was stuck at work and asked if we could pick up Rylee. So when we got home, I jumped in the car and picked Rylee up. When we got home, Beth was already in the pool and we joined her. Dawn and Jo came by around 5pm. We will see Rylee again at 9am tomorrow.

Scare of my life...
We were up by 7am this morning. We got dressed and finished loading the car. I went over and picked up Kyle and we then went to get a load of mulch. We then headed up to Beth's parents house. Beth went to go gets us some breakfast before we started unload the mulch. Beth's brother, Jeff, came up to help us. We did really well and got it all unloaded, but needed just a little more to finish. Kyle and I went to Ace Hardware to get a couple of bags and found they had mulch in bulk, so we got half a scoop. We finished around 11am and were on our way back home. I dropped off Kyle and came home. We had some lunch and then took showers. I had started scanning some more pictures and had to send them to my mom with some questions. We went to pick up Rylee around 4pm. Dawn came by around 4:30pm. I started the grill and made Bar-B-Que chicken for dinner. Rylee and I went out to water the flowers after dinner. We were walking around the pool and Rylee fell in. She did not panic, but I sure did. I jumped in and got her and set her on the side. She was fine and told me she held her breath and swimmed. Boy did I get the scare of my life. We came back to the house and got undressed and told the others what happened. So it is another early day tomorrow, as I have to go pick up Kyle at 8am for grass cutting.

All things delivered...
We were up around 8am this morning. Since we were going to see Jojo at hockey and Beth wanted steak, we decided to have a brunch and then have an early dinner. So I talked to my mom about the pictures she sent and then made lunch. Beth went out and trimmed the rest for the bushes and shrubs. I took a shower and them made German chocolate cupcakes. Beth came in around 2:30pm and took here shower. I fixed steak for dinner We left a little before 6pm and went to pay for the work on my truck and then headed to the hockey arena. After Jojo was done with practice, we went to BJ's wholesale club. We stopped and picked up my truck on the way and I had to get gas. All my purchases came today. We got the parts for the pool cleaner, the Popsicle holder for the kids, and all the cricut cartridges. The only problem is one of the cartridges was the wrong one. So had to email the seller and she is sending the correct one and a mailer to sent the other one back. So it was a good day. We are getting up early tomorrow to go spread mulch at Beth's parents house.

Rainy Day
We got up around 8:30am this morning. I t started to rain and did so all day. It was that misty kinda of rain most of the time and then it would down pour for about 5 minutes then mist. We had breakfast and took showers. I went to Micheal's as they had paper 6 for a buck. I needed to stock up on solid color paper and got 60 sheets. Kim and Jojo came by around 4:30pm and only stayed for a little while. I fixed stuffing stuffed turkey cutlet for dinner. After dinner, we took and dropped off my truck at the dealership. It is getting an oil change and tire rotation tomorrow. I got a package from my mom today. It is for a project I am working and will be calling her tomorrow with some questions. Mom's friend Stef called with blog questions, but I could not help her. She is looking for more than I can do with a blog.
Monday, June 11, 2012
I got up around 9am this morning and played on the computer until Beth got up t 10am. We had some breakfast and then went back to playing on the computer. It seemed like a good day to do nothing at all. Then I remembered I had a hair appointment at 12:30pm. Do I had to get a shower and left around 12:15pm. I called Beth at 1:45pm and she was still in her jammies playing on the computer. So I stopped by the store and came home. We had some lunch and Beth took a shower. We went to the mall to the post off and dropped off some things and then went to Home Depot. We had be replace the shed doors and we are going to do it ourselves. So we got the wood and work on it tomorrow. I made dinner and we are now doing nothing again. It was a Good Day.

Swim time...
Guess I was kinda tired since I sleep until 10 am. I had a hard time going to sleep and think it was one too many cokes I had at the party. We had breakfast and got dressed. We wanted to get the garage in some time of order and get the car back in it. We got the Christmas stuff back in the attic and alot of stuff in the trash. We moved the Tiki bar to the garage, so the top could be fixed and them moved to the pool area. We finished up around 1:30pm and it was hot as heck. I think the temperature got to 90 today, so it was swimming time. I made a couple of sandwiches, got 2 beers, and a glass of water and headed to the pool. We ate the sandwiches and hit the water. Boy did it feel good. Kim and Jojo came over around 3pm for a swim and they left around 5pm. I fixed pork chops for dinner and finished folding the laundry.

Not sure we did much today...
We got up around 8:30am this morning. I made biscuits and honey for breakfast. I changed the sheets on the bed and went to the summer blanket. We took showers and then decided that we had lots of errands to do, so we were off to do them. We had to go to two different banks. We stopped and had lunch and then went to Home Depot, Target, and Bed Bath and Beyond. I had to water the potted flowers when we got home and noticed the pool sweeper was not working right. So we rolled the pool cover back and the sweeper was missing a wheel. Beth found the wheel and it was broke. So we had a space sweeper in the shed, but it was not working correctly. I was able to order the parts for the sweeper, but it will take a few days to get here. So it looks like we will just hand vac the pool for now. Beth went to church and when she got home, we left and went to Casey's 21 birthday party. Casey is Wendy's daughter. We had a great time seeing everyone.

All good from the doctor..
I got up up around 7:30am this morning. I had appoint with the cancer doctor at 9:30am. Good news is I will not have to have the body scan for 4 more years, but will have to have x-rays next year. I was also talking to her about watching the Doomsday Preppers and what would happen if I did not take my meds for a long period of time. First she told me to stop watching that kind of stuff and that she had had people not take there meds for a year and they were only tired, but it would not kill me. So I don't have to stock on on them. I left there and went to pick up Kyle, so he could get started on the grass. Beth had taken the blade off the push mower and it needed to be replaced. So I went to Home Depot and they did not have the one I needed , so I went to the John Deere dealer and got the correct one. So I came home and talked to my mom for a while, then made lunch for everyone. Beth started cutting the front yard and Kyle finished cutting the back. I took him as he had to play in graduation tonight. I finished the laundry when Beth came in to give me her stinky clothes. It was a hot day today and will be even hotter the next 2 days. We might even go swimming tomorrow, depending on the pool temperature.

Raining with the sun shining...
Beth was up around 7:30am and I slept until 8:30am. Beth's knees were rally sore this morning, so she did very little to give them a day of rest. We had breakfast and took showers. I had to go out and dig 2 hole for the peony bushes that were are transplanting. The only took about 45 minutes and a good thing. The sun was shining bight and rain was falling everywhere. It did that most of the day today. It was really strange to see the sun shining and raining like crazy. It would only last a few minutes then stop and start again about an hour later. Buster had a grooming appointment and 3pm and Beth had a eye appointment at 3:30pm. I left at 3:40pm to go pick up Rylee. She was in a really good mood this afternoon. I had to get everything out of her cubby, as she will not be there tomorrow. She had a appointment to see the specialist about her skin. She wants to know where Aunt Beth was and I told her she had to eye an eye doctor. She then asked what was wrong and I told her nothing just getting her eyes checked. She was ok with that, but had to tall me all the things the doctor checks on her when she goes to the doctor. When we got home she wanted gummies and to watch baby goofy on TV. We did stop by McDonald's on the way home to get chicken nuggets and fries for dinner. When Aunt Beth got home we had dinner and Rylee was really hungry. She ate 6 chicken nuggets and fries. We then went to pick up Buster and she helped pick out a new water dish for outside. Jo came to pick her up around 7pm. I have to go see the cancer doctor tomorrow for a routine exam and then picking up Kyle so she can weed whack and cut the back yard.

Great day at the dentist...
I got up at 7:30am this morning and took a shower and was out the door by 8:30am. I was hoping for some good news since every time leaving for the last 3 years has been bad news. After the initial exam, the news was good and what ever I am doing is helping my teeth say clean and tarter free. YEAAAAA So now I just have to keep it up and the cleaning will not be so long or painful. I was out of there by 10am and on my way home. Beth was going outside to trim the remaining bushes. I had to go to the grocery store for a few things and was home by 11:30am and made lunch. I went downstairs to put away the scrapbook stuff I got yesterday and watched a movie. Beth came inside around 4:30pm and iced and then took a shower. We headed to the track around 5:30pm to watch Payton. He started out in first and ended in 4th place. He got tangles with 2 other cars and when they came out he was in last place, but had enough time to pass one of the cars for 4th place finish. He did really well in getting by cars and there was on one yellow flag. So we came home and had dinner and are now watching the Phillie's game.

Hobby Lobby...
We got up around 8:30am this morning. I made waffles for breakfast and took showers. We decided to go to Hobby Lobby today. I found there were two of them about the same distant away. Beth was more familiar with one, so off we went. It took us about an hour to get there. we made a short at the caddy dealership to see about getting a new antenna for the caddy. It broke off, but we still get reception. After a short conversation, it would cost $200 buck for a new one and we said we could live with what we had. We got to Hobby Lobby and I told Beth 'Don't rush me'. She understood the meaning and when to look at other things. I spent an hour and a half and did really well. The only thing I don't like is they do not use bar codes and you have to sort everything by price. I knew this going in and did all my sorting before I got to the check out. It makes the process go faster and the check out person loves it. So we left there and went to Long John Silvers for lunch. They are really close together and expect more trips in our future. We stopped by Beth's parents house on the way home to check on the weed progress. It was pretty good and not many to pull. We do have to get some mulch around the plants and will do that when Kyle is out of school. We got home around 4:40pm and Beth cut the from yard before an angry cloud came by. I have a dentist appointment at 9am in the morning and I am not looking forward to it.

Rain again...
We were up at 7;30am this morning.We showered and were on our way to see Dr. Bill. After we were done there, we headed to Quest so I could give blood for my test on Friday. I was able to get right in and did not have to wait long. We then left there and I had to go mail my mom's package at the post office. Then it was off to Lowe's and finally to the dry cleaners. We were back home by 10:30am. Since it was raining again, Beth was not able to cut the grass, so she worked on her side of the office. That was my clue to go work downstairs. I finished working on Payton's book and he is all up to date. I took some chicken out of the freezer for dinner and made Bar-B-Que chicken on the grill. I was lucky that is was only misting the whole time the chicken was grilling. After dinner, we went over to DJ and Maggie's house. Kyle needed a check for his trip deposit and he had enough in his grass cutting money to cover it. Brownie was in town from KC. so we visited a while with them and came home around 9pm. Hopefully the rain will stop one day this week, so Beth can cut the grass.

Thistle War...
Beth was up and at church by 8am. I go up and got dressed by the time Beth got home. We had breakfast and then went outside. I finished trimming the grass around the steps and the deck. We then had to get the ladder out and clean out the one gutter. It had whirly bird that were sprouting. We then took on the thistles behind the fence. We had decided that the only way to get rid of them is to kill everything back there and start over again. The ivy is so nice and has had 4 years to grow, but there are too many thistles. We had to cut the tops off as they were getting ready to go to seed and we did not want that. So we pulled a few of them and that was taking too long. So we went and got the hedge trimmers and cut the tops off and bagged them. We had 5 large bags of thistles. It took us around 2 hours to complete that task. We came inside to have lunch and the clouds rolled in. We were hoping it would past, but it did not and the rain began. So we took showers and were done for the day. Grass cutting will have to wait until tomorrow. The the rain, sun, rain, sun cycle happened all day long. Dawn, Jo, and Rylee came by around 4pm for a short visit. I fixed dinner of flat iron steak, corn on the cob, and salad. I finished folding the laundry and Beth wanted an ice cream cone, so we were off to Rita's. Beth was able to watch the Phillies lose today during the rain storm.

Bush trimming day...
We decided since we had a heavy rain that is would be a good time to pull weeds. So after breakfast, we went outside. I started pulling weeds in the front bed. An evergreen bush was starting to creep onto the sidewalk, so I got out the clippers and trimmed it back. Well Beth got inspired and started trimming the bushes. So after the weeds were pulled in the from, I was on clean up crew for the bush trimmings. We started on the ones from the driveway to the front door. There were seven of them and all needed a trim. So 5 hours later, we have seven trimmed bushes and looking good. We still have 5 more on the other side of the front door, but those will wait a few more days. It was the right day to do it, as it was overcast and a good breeze was blowing. I told Beth that since she did a good job, I would take her to dinner and well I did not lay anything out either. So we came in and took showers and went to dinner. It was nice to sit at the bar and watch the Phillies game and have dinner. We stopped by Dawn and Jo hopefully to be house and saw they were adding sidewalks and the front walk way. So now were are so ready for bed. The lawn boy can not work this week-end, so we will be doing the lawn tomorrow.

Office Reward...
Beth was up before me this morning. We worked late last night getting the office almost done. We had breakfast and Beth took a shower and was off to PT. Today was her last day although she has 2 more sessions if she needs to go later. She stopped WAWA and brought lunch home and then we went to see Snow White and the Huntsman. It was a very good movie and will be getting it when it comes to DVD. We then went to the grocery store and home. We had dinner and the clouds again rolled in. It had rained earlier in the day, but I had hoped it would stop, but no luck. We even had tornado warnings around 7pm. I moved here to get away from them and they followed me.
