Happy Halloween...

No gym this morning as we had a lot to do today. We took showers and had breakfast. We had to meet someone at Target as Beth purchase something off the yard sale site. We then did some shopping in Target and had to go to CVS. We then went to the bank and Beth got KFC for lunch. I got sonic as they had corn dogs for 50 cents. We then came home and finished putting the rest of the Halloween decoration out. I left to go to Dawn and Jo's house around 6pm. Maggie and Payton went with me as to go trick or treating with Rylee. We had a great time and the kids got lots of candy. we got a lot of compliments on the Halloween decoration, they did look pretty cool. We took everything into the garage around 9am as it is suppose to rain tonight and tomorrow. That way we could put everything away tomorrow. So Happy Halloween to everyone.

Treat day.

We were up and at the gym by 8:30am and back home by 10am. We took showers and then had some lunch. I started making the push ups for Rylee to take to school tomorrow. Beth helped and I think she had a good time. We had to pick up Jojo from school and take her home. We had dinner with Dawn, Jo, and Rylee and the watched The Great Pumpkin. Had a great day.

2 shots...

I was up at 7am and at the doctor's office by 7:30am. Not all of my test result came in, so I had to wait for the cholesterol numbers. My glucose was high again and they are doing an A1C test and should here in the next day or so. I did have to get 2 shots, flu and tetanus, so my arm will be sore also. Came home and then went to the gym. The doctor did say I was fighting a somewhat losing battle, with my age, menopause, and thyroid issue, but to stay at. Not an encouraging sign. We went to the Army/Navy store to look around, but did not buy anything. We came home and had lunch. Beth is trying to get the wit h we have for Halloween to work and no luck yet. we had corn on the cob and bar-b-que chicken for dinner. Yum Yum...

Ikea...

For some reason we are sleeping in late. We got up and had breakfast and showers. We left and went to Ikea, as Beth needed a new desk chair. We found a chair and a few other things. We had lunch there and then came home. I had the start of a migraine, so I took a nap. We had to meet a person at the mall for a item I sold. we then had some dinner and I worked on some computer stuff and Beth worked on carving pumpkins.

Another day of football...

We slept in late this morning. Beth went to 10:30am mass. We then read the paper and watched the eagles lose again. The funny thing is, they are still in second place in the division. The Chiefs are 8 -0 and still going strong. I had to go pickup Kyle and take him to work around 3:30. We went ahead and called in a pizza and wing order. Not much else. good win for the cardinal and I know mom is happy about that. Tomorrow we are going to Ikea for a visit.

Selling stuff..

We loaded up the little fridge and headed to Coventry mall to meet a lady we sold it to. After that, we stopped at Pier One to look at their Halloween stuff, but did not find anything we liked. We came home and I posted a couple more items on the yard sale site and ended up selling one thing for a Monday pick up. I kinds enjoy posting thing out there and selling them with out the hassle of a regular yard sale. All the money is going into the Disney vacation fund. I have a couple more thing to try and post Monday. It is also a good way to get rid of the stuff we no long want. We then and watch the boys race and took some pictures. We left after the 6th race as it was just too cold and my knee was stiff. My we are home trying to get warm again. How long before summer again???

Oil all over everything...

We got up late this morning, so no gym. We had breakfast and took showers, then headed out the door to take Buster to the vet. His butt is doing better, but he will still have to take the pills and we have to wipe it every 3 days with some solution the vet gave us. He knee is doing better, but it could take another month before it is all the way better. He can have his blow up collar off, as long as he is not licking. So we drop him off at home and then went to Costco and Staples, and Lowe's. We came home and Beth was not feeling well, so she went to take a nap. I set up the new fryer and the first time using was a big mess. The switch on the front for the drain did not work right and about 2 cups of oil leaked all over the stove. So after cleaning up the mess, we tried it again and this time it worked. We really like it and love the way it fries things. The switch is a poor design and if you are having that much oil, the switch should not be so easy to move. Mom check you phone, I sent you a message...LOL

Beth working...

I got up and took a shower around 7:30pm.  had an appointment to give blood at 8:15 am and then went to Wal-Mart afterwards. I was back home around 10am. Beth left to go to the bank and then help DJ with some tree trimming. I did laundry and cleaned up the kitchen. Beth was back home around 2pm and I fixed her some lunch. Dawn and Rylee came over around 5:30pm and we had tacos. Dawn left for her appointment and Jo picked up Rylee around 7:30p. We started watching the football, but it was very boring, so it is off to bed. Here is the picture we took at the ranch.

Cold....

We got up and headed to the gym around 9am. It was 42 degrees and will be colder tonight. We came home and I took a shower and headed over to DJ's house. I wanted to start working on the boys racing books and needed the pictures she had. I then went to the store and came home. Beth had a doctor's appointment at 3:40pm. After that, we had dinner with DJ, Maggie, and the boys. It was a great time. Weather man says it will be in the low 30's tonight, so on came the furnace.

The ranch...

We got up and went to the gym. After we got home, we took showers and headed to the ranch. We took several good pictures and the went to Long John Silver's for lunch. We then headed to Cabela's for some shopping. We got home around 4pm and I took a nap. It rained off and on most of the day and is only going to be a high of 53 tomorrow. Time for the furnace to go on.

Disney day...

We were up and out the door to see Dr. Jill by 8:30am this morning. We then came back home and Started working on the December Disney trip. Beth had made the dinning reservation under on id and she was linked to my Disney account user a different id, so she had to call to get it figured out. I had a hair appointment at 1pm and then had to stop by the store. I made steak Diana for dinner and it was really good. It had been awhile since we had it and it was time. Buster went to see Dr. Karen for a dog adjustment on his leg, so we will see if that helps along with everything else. It will be getting cold later this week and is going to be in the low 30's in the night. It will be time to turn on the heater then. Burrrrrrrr.

Win and Loss...

We got up and went to Jack Flee market this morning. We walked around for 3hours and purchased a few things. We then came home and left the dogs out to potty. We then went up to Dawn and Jo's house to have lunch and watch the football game. The Eagles looked really bad and the deserved to lose the game. we came home and watched the 4pm games and the Chiefs looked good and are 7 -0. Buster seems to be doing a little better, so lets hope he continues to get better.

Forgot...

I forgot to do the blog last night, but nothing really happened much from taking Buster to the vet. Watched college football and worked on scrapbooking stuff. It was cold and rainy, so back to wearing jeans again.

Day of running...

We got up and took showers and had breakfast. We left and went to Lowe's for a few things, went to WAWA to cash out our scratch off ticket, then on to get pumpkins. We got home around noon and had lunch. DJ dropped off Gabby and we headed out right behind her. We went to BJ's, then outlet mall , and to Costco. We made it home around 4pm. We had ribs for dinner and spent the rest of the evening resting from our day of running. Beth had left the dogs out around 7pm and Buster came back in limping really bad on his back leg. We will keep an eye on it and we if it is any better tomorrow. What next?????

All ready...

We slept in late this morning and did not go to the gym. I took a shower and started laundry. we then went out and got the electrical cords from the attic and hooked up everything outside for Halloween. we had some lunch and then we had to take Buster back tot he vet. His butt was getting worse and was leaking. The vet put him on antibiotics and we have to take him back in a week. we got a different cone collar for him and he seems to do better with it and can not lick. Dawn and Rylee came over for a chicken, rice, and cranberry sauce dinner. Rylee was a little scared of the decorations out front, but got used to them. Now it is time for football and see if mom's team can win tonight.

Halloween ready...

we were up and at the gym by 8:45 am. We then came home and got all the Halloween stuff out of the attic. We then had lunch and Beth cut the grass. I set out what I could  and then finished when the grass was all mowed. We still have to get the extension cord and timers out tomorrow, but they are all up. We then went to pick up my truck and I went to the store and Beth did some errands. It was kinda nice here, cloudy, but in the low 70's. The last to nice we have seen the deer in the back and they don't seem to care if we seem them or not. They look at us and then continue eating.

Insurance review...

We got to the gym around 8:30am and were back home around 9:45am. I spent the next 4 hours looking at health insurance and talking to Beth about what was best for us. I think have finally figured out what to do and will sign up for new insurance on Nov. 1. We had some lunch and then Beth spent the rest of the afternoon working on her computer doing various items. I went downstairs to catch on my shows. We had dinner and then took my car back in to get the radio installed tomorrow. I was going to install it myself, but they needed my old one as a trade in, get this, so they can fix it and sell it to someone else. What a joke, but tomorrow I will have a new, and I use that word loosely, radio.

Hobby Lobby...

Beth was up early as she had to meet Kim at 8am. Jojo had to have a baby tooth cut out and wanted Beth to be there. I got up and went to the gym and we were both back home about the same time. I took a shower and we headed to Hobby Lobby. We had lunch at Red Robin and then wen to the Plow and Heath store. Beth was expecting it to be bigger, but it had some really cool stuff. we got home around 4pm and Beth took a nap. I made dinner and then we watched MNF.

Football all day.

Beth went to church and then we watched football the rest of the day. Short, sweet, and to the point.....LOL

Great day...

Rylee came in and woke us up around 7:30am. Her and Beth watch the same movie they watch last night, while I made the caramel money bread. It was really good and everyone liked it. I gave Rylee a shower and then she got changed for dance. Dawn and Jo picked her up around 10am. I spent the rest of the day watching football and working on scrapbook stuff. The finally stopped, but it was still cold out all day.

Rylee overnight...

Beth was up early and went to give blood. I got up around 8am and she was home about 30 minutes later. We had breakfast and she went to get her hair cut. I took a shower and cleaned the bathroom. They called and said they would not have my radio in today, so we went to pick it up and will take it back next week. We did some other errands and came home. It rained again all night and all day. The rain gauge said 4 inches and it is going to rain the next 2 days. We picked up Rylee from school around 5pm. Beth had called in our dinner order and we picked it up on the way home. We had inner and then watched 2 Disney Halloween movies. Bedtime for Rylee came and off she went. We are making monkey bread for breakfast in the morning and it should be fun.

New radio

It has rained all day today and was really cold. I finally had to put on long pants and a long sleeved shirt. They called and said I needed a new radio for my truck and it will either be here tomorrow or next week. Dawn and Rylee came by for sloppy joes and fries dinner. We are now watching the bears and giants play.

Cold today...

We got up and were going to go to the gym, but found had a sore on is butt. Beth called the vet and were able to get him right in. He said that because of his arthritis in his legs that he is not pooping right and that we may have to take him in and get the glands manually squeezed. He will go back in 2 weeks and see how things are doing. So we came home and had some lunch. It was very cold here today and it is going to rain, so it was damp out. I was able to drop off my truck tonight for them to look at the radio tomorrow. I did look at Cindy's Christmas list and will give you a call tomorrow evening about it.

Planting bulbs...

Boy was it cold this morning when we got up. We had breakfast and I took a shower. I headed outside to start planting bulbs and Beth went to the gym. I started in the back and planted almost 50 bulbs. Beth helped with the last 15 and saved us time. We had lunch and I then went to Lowe's to get some more bulbs for the front. So after another 40 more, I was done for the day. I still have a few, but will do them another day, when my hands are not sore. We had Bar-B-Que chicken and salad for dinner. It did warm a little,, but fall is finally here.

Some rain...

We saw Dr. Bill for a much needed adjustment and then went to the gym. I was able to only walk about 10 minutes as my knee was still hurting. We came home and took showers and I had to go meet a lady and get a couple of thing I purchase off the yard sale site. We had some lunch and DJ came by for a visit. I began to rain hard and the wind blew. I lasted about 30 minutes and then only rained  about 4 more hours and stopped.  The temperature dropped to the mid 60's and will stay there the rest of the week. We had dinner and the watched the MNF game. We needed Atlanta to win to stay in the football, but I don't think that is going to happen.

Eagles and Chiefs win...

Beth was up and at church by 8am. I rolled out bed and took a shower right before she got home. We had breakfast and read the paper. We went to pickup Kyle and took take him to work as DJ had grass cutting and we wanted her to get started early. We then headed to the Best Buy in KOP. Beth got a new computer as her sucked. We then settled in to watch the football games. Both eagles and chiefs won and the cowboys lost, so we are tired for first in our division and have a losing record.

Flee market and racing...

We were up and out the door by 9am this morning. We headed to Jake's flee market and spent 2 hours walking and shopping. we purchase a few things and had fun. We then had some lunch and went to Wal-Mart. We then came home and I took a nap. We left around 5pm to go watch the boys race. Kyle came in first in one race and 3rd in his second race. He is racing 2 cars now and did good. Payton is still felling the effect of being smashed into the wall a few weeks back and is just content to run in either last place or first place. He just needs some time go recover and get his confidence back. So it was a redneck kinda of day.

A date with the electrical panal...

We were up and t the gym by 9am this morning. we had to set all the stuff out for the purple heart people to pick up and the termite guy was here also. We then stopped by the mall and then on to Costco. We came home and I put a brisket in the oven and boy did the house smell good all afternoon. we will be eating it all week-end. After dinner, we had a date with electrical panel downstairs. We wanted to know what each of the breakers controlled in the house. So Beth was downstairs and I was upstairs and we had the walkie talkies. I took us about 2 hours to determine what every light and outlet were controlled. This will give us a better indication for the generator we want to get. It is so very hot in the house and will be until it rains on Monday, but I think we can live with and not use the AC anymore.

Rain please...

Beth went to the gym this morning and I, well I skipped the gym. I had to water the plants and then started laundry. Beth came home and then sprayed around the front of the house to see if we could get rid of some of the stink bugs. It got really warm today and I hope we get some rain tomorrow, as we need it. Dawn and Rylee came by around 5:45pm for dinner. I tried a new recipe and it was really good. You cube boneless chicken breast, cube red potatoes, and the put them in a bowl with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic power, and paprika. Bake for 60 minutes, stirring every 20 minutes. Then top with cheese, bacon, and ranch dressing. So very good. Tomorrow I am going to cook a brisket for the week-end.

More insurance ...

We got up and went to the gym around 9am. We stopped by Wal-Mart and picked up a few things before coming home. We then had some lunch and I began trying to do more research on the new health care plans. The big site they want you to look at is all messed up and crashes most of the time. Tried most of the day to look at but no luck, so will keep trying. Right now we are probably going to stay with Blue cross unless we see something as good for cheaper.

Health Insurance...

After the gym, We looked at the new health insurance plans for next year. It appears that we will stay with Blue Cross and we will only save about 300 per month. We looked at a couple other companies and they were all about the same for the same coverage, so why not stick with what we know. It was not as cheap as we had hoped, but any saving is better than nothing. We then went to Costco and had lunch at Cheeseburger Cheeseburger. We tested the electric cooler and could not get it to work. we did find that it had a fuse in the pull in, so we changed that out and it is working now. It does both hot and cold, so we try it out later and see how cool it gets. But if it does work, then $15 bucks was a steal for it. Beth made ham, bean, and potato soup for dinner and I love it. I can not believe it is October and still in the 80's and will be for the next week.
