House Lights

My mother took me out to dinner tonight. We went to Red Lobster. After dinner she said she wanted to drive through the neighborhood and see all decorated houses. So we drove all through her neighborhood and looked at what seemed like thousands of houses. Then we went to her house and turned on her lights so we could see what it looked like in the dark. Here's a picture of her house with the lights on. I think she needs more lights but I don’t want to be the one to put them on. he he he

Watching Movies

Woke up early this morning and looked out the window and saw that it had snowed. It looks like it snowed a good 3 inches. Now it has turned over to rain and it’s nasty. I’d have taken some pictures but it looks nasty and I don’t think it will make a nice picture. I’m spending the day watching movies. I’ve watched “In The Good Ole Summer Time”, “The Shop Around The Corner” and now I’m watching “A Christmas Carol”. I love watching old movies on a cold Sunday. I’ve also had some hot chocolate and shortbread cookies. Makes me all warm and fuzzy inside. 🙂

Frying Pan Park

Yesterday I went to Frying Pan Park. The sun was out but it was still quite cold. There was a good layer of snow on everything. It was left over from the weekend snow storm. I took several pictures of the farm. Here are just a few I thought I’d share.


I thought this barn looked beautiful in the snow with the sun shining on it. I think a larger picture would give you a better idea of how beautiful it was.


This is a picture of the pardoned Presidential turkey from Thanksgiving. This is where the pardoned turkeys go to live out their lives. From what the docent told me, they don’t live very long.


I thought this truck looked really cool. You be the judge.

Christmas Tree

Today I put up my Christmas tree. Is there anything wrong with putting up your tree the day after Thanksgiving? I had the day off and had plenty of time to do it so I thought I would get one more thing done by doing it today. A good friend of mine commented on how early it was to put up my Christmas tree. I told him I wanted to do it while I felt in the mood. If you know me at all, you know I'll take it down the day after Christmas. What sucks about having a tree in the first place is that there won't be any presents under it. Years ago my family decided to only get gifts for the grand children. Well, I don't have any children (and won't) so there won't be any presents under my tree. And since I was recently let go by my most recent boyfriend, I won't be getting any presents from him either. I'll have to tell you about him sometime. He's got some problems that he's dealing with and doesn't feel as if being in a relationship is something he can deal with at this time. Besides the fact that he's 1300 miles away doesn't help. He says that's what is breaking us up but I have my doubts. In any case, I will respect his decision and move on. Anyway, I put up my tree today and I think it looks pretty good. I will enjoy the warm feelings I get when looking at the tree all lit up while listening to Christmas music.

Happy Thanksgiving

Fed the cat. Fed the guinea pigs. Cleaned the litter box. What are friends for. Now I'm ready for dinner with some family. Happy Thanksgiving to all.

Update! I went to my brother’s house for Thanksgiving. I took my mom. We had a nice time and my sister in law made a delicious meal.

Here’s a picture of me!
