Hi, today was very pleasant with good conversations and tasty food. I am grateful for the picnic Kevin’s work had today. The weather today was perfect. Hot Dogs and Hamburgers were served and we were asked to bring a covered dish. The food was delicious and it was fun visiting with Kevin’s co-workers and their spouses. Normally I would have taken pictures, however as I have mentioned, Kevin does not like being in them. With this being his work, I never even considered whipping out my phone! 🙂
Hi, I am so grateful for my Friday’s. The George Jones song, It’s Finally Friday, sums up my feelings for Friday at 5pm.
Lyrics
I got a hundred dollars smokin’ in my billfold
I know I oughta save it, but it’s burnin’ a hole
Right through my pocket and into my skin
Come Monday morning, I’ll be broke again
It’s finally Friday, I’m free again
I got my motor running for a wild weekend
It’s finally Friday, I’m outta control
Forget the workin’ blues and let the good times roll
I got a little sugarbaby down the road
She’s sittin’ on ready and rockin’ on roll
We’ll dance up a storm and later all night
We’ll be workin’ on a-doin’ all the wrong things right
It’s finally Friday, I’m free again
I got my motor running for a wild weekend
It’s finally Friday, I’m outta control
Forget the workin’ blues and let the good times roll
Monday, I’ll be hurtin’ with my head in a vice
Tuesday, I’ll be wonderin’ if I’ll ever survive
Wednesday and Thursday, I’ll be slowly tunin’ in
Friday, I’ll be revin’ up my motor again
Finally Friday, I’m free again
I got my motor running for a wild weekend
It’s finally Friday, I’m out of control
Forget the workin’ blues and let the good times roll
Finally Friday
I got my motor running for a wild weekend
It’s finally Friday
Forget the workin’ blues and let the good times roll
Hi, today I was hungry at lunch time. I’ve been thinking about my scramble egg muffins. With just half an hour for lunch, I did not have time to make the recipe. And a bright idea came to mind, I could microwave my scrambled eggs! My lunch consisted of 4 eggs, peppers, onions and Canadian Bacon. Remember I said I was hungry. 🙂
Today I was grateful for my wonderful scrambled egg lunch. It was delicious. It completely satisfied me and was just two points per Weight Watchers app.
Hi, today I am grateful for dreams. One of my 101 in 1001 is to vacation solo. My dreams of doing this has finally come to me needing to take action! I have always had a fear of traveling alone. Even going to see a show alone was something I did not want to do. However, I conquered that in my 101 in 1001 and it was not a bad experience. So I am dreaming of taking a trip. My plan is to go for a short solo venture to someplace in Kansas- most likely a day trip. With this decision made, I am already getting excited!
Hi, it’s my Day 15 in 31. Today I am grateful for a girls day out! Linda and I went to Powell Gardens.
This is an absolutely beautiful place. The collage above features the chapel that is part of Powell Gardens. The day we were there, the chapel was going to close to the public at 3pm for a wedding. And what a lovely, perfect day for the wedding and wedding pictures. Not too hot for the bride and groom/wedding party for outdoor pictures. And certainly warm enough for the guests to mingle outside for the reception. If I were not with Linda, I would truly have been a wedding crasher that evening! 🙂
Once we arrived, parked and bought our admission tickets, we headed to the chapel first. This was a good walk. Beautiful things to see the whole way. We came upon a young lady having her senior pictures taken. Unlike the bride and groom who more than likely would have many layers on, this high school senior had on a short summer dress. A cold day for that dress!

As we were walking, a maintenance worker was driving a golf course coming towards us. Well, I stuck my thumb out like a hitch hiker. He stopped. We asked for a ride back to the visitor building. He did better than that. He gave us a guided tour of the 45 acre botanical gardens!
