I'M BACK!!!
So I decided to Blog again. I seem to disappear for a year then get the urge to start again. (Looking back at the blog). I have had quite a few people ask me when I would start posting again. Time always seems to be the issue with everything. Time passes so fast and gets away from us so why not take the time. I am working on making time for things that make me happy and this is one of them
This year has been beyond crazy personally and in this world. I have chosen to create this as a place to visit without politics and drama which is why I wanted even more to blog the good things.
With all that being said we are very happy to see Florence make her exit - our thoughts and prayers are with everyone affected. We were very fortunate to only lost power for 6 hours. We had a glitch with the generator but Lowes was opened and had plenty in stock. It was an easy fix. Both our current home and new home appear to be without damage. THANK GOD!!
During the storm we watched the Black Panther Modern Marvel movie. I didn't think I'd like it and the movie was a bit different for me but the effects and story were better than I thought. We also watched Melissa McCarthy - "The Life of the Party". It was also not the best movie but cute and a current spin of Rodney Dangerfield's "Back to School".
Now we need the rain to take a hike!!! Things to dry out so we can move on with our new home. For anyone that doesn't know. We bought the land in Fuquay Varina, NC 14 years ago and finally broke ground last August. Keith (my husband) and I are building our dream home. Here is our current status...
The HOPE is to be in for the holidays.
I will keep y'all posted.
My older son Justin is living with us and is eager for us to move out so he can take over this house we are in.
In the meantime we have these two crazy fur babies. We adopted Tucker (lab/shepherd mix) a year ago Mother's Day and Kaylee (chow-chow/golden - Heinz 57) this past February. She was a Foster Failure. I failed. I had her for a week and could NOT give her back!
They keep us laughing.
Kaylee is such a Daddy girl. She is obsessed with Keith. Every moment she can she is kissing him And Tucker is a mama's boy.
They absolutely adore each other from the moment we brought Kaylee home..
Do you truly know how to boil the perfect egg?
This morning I wanted to make egg salad. I however either overcook or undercook my hard boiled eggs. And then there is the frustration of getting the shell off. So what do I do? I GOOGLE how to boil the perfect egg. And they were truly perfect.
What else has been going on you ask???
I bowl on a ladies Wednesday league. I started a year ago August. I was lucky to bowl on average a 70. Thank goodness for handicaps. My teammates have all been supportive for the most part. I was truly frustrated getting more gutters than pins. I am proud to say things have improved. No I'm not entering the Pro Bowlers but I have gotten my 90 handicap down to a 73. (Those that don't know - the handicap is your average subtracted from 200). I shocked myself and everyone else this week and bowled a 186. I then went back to reality and bowled a 93 and 98. Consistent I'm not. But here's the proof. I had to take a picture.
I also play Mah Jongg on Mondays. People think it is Jewish ladies game but guess what? I'm the only Jewish person I love the game. It's challenging and fun. Of course we have a few of our own rules that would be snubbed at but we have a good time. We won't tell the Mah Jongg police.
On that note..............I found this the other day. SERIOUSLY???? It was pretty funny. But again -
Seriously?
I know this was a rather random all over the place post but for the most part I think that brings everyone up to date.
My goal is to blog at least once a week.
Ta Ta for now!!!
Stacey
