This afternoon I had a delivery from FedEx. Imagine my surprise when I opened the box and found flowers from my dear son-in-law. This Friday is my daughter’s birthday and he sent ME flowers (well, he also sent her some gorgeous calla lilies – her wedding flowers). Aren’t they lovely? The picture doesn’t do them…
Still In Love With You
What can you say about a weekend like David and I just shared? Words can’t do it justice but I’ll give it a whirl. We drove to Oklahoma City Friday evening, stopping in Norman to drop off seven boxes of bottles (from Happyland Music Fest) at the recycling center. We then had dinner at Olive…
Spoiled Rotten
Okay, I’ll admit it. David spoils me. Later this afternoon we will be heading to “the city” (that’s Okie-speak for Oklahoma City) for three nights at the fabulous Skirvin Hotel. Monday is our 30th anniversary and he has to leave that morning for his annual managers meeting in Houston. I’m not crazy about the fact…

Household Planning Notebook
I’m going to assume you know who the FlyLady is. If not, check out this link. I found her Yahoo Group many years ago when it was just getting off the ground and have followed some of her suggestions and routines off and on ever since. Even though I tend to be naturally neat and…
Summer Reading List
Now that I know what not to read this summer it’s time to decide what should be on my list. Let’s see what Oprah recommends… Oprah’s Tantalizing Beach Reads Hmm…“The Kitchen Daughter” sounds like something I would enjoy. AND it’s available on Kindle. I’ve long been a fan of Maeve Binchy so “Minding Frankie” is…
Happy birthday, Captain Dave!
Captain Dave My husband, the pirate, turned 50 on Sunday. I had intended to have a big celebration on Saturday night but last week he had to go to Sioux City, Iowa on emergency business. Their location up there is right on the river and will be under water in a few days. He…
