The Weekend!

The weekend is finally here!  It has been such a long week.  HOT, HOT, HOT!     My poor sweetie works out in this heat every day from sun~up to sun~down. . .I don't know how he does it!  Today was my day off and I did a lot of running around. . .in and out of the air-conditioned truck, into the air-conditioned store, bank, DMV (don't ask), but I was sweating by the time I climbed into the truck.  I am not much of a sweater, but today I must have sweat a gallon. 

I got up early this morning and started cleaning.  By 9:00 am I had the kitchen, laundry room and den sparkling.  Then I started in on the laundry and I'm happy to report an empty hamper. . .well, by now it is 1/2 full again!   Thank goodness Katie does her own clothes and Betsy helps a little.

Robert grilled for his crews today. . .standing over a hot grill in 100 degree weather?  Is he nuts?  Any way. . .yesterday was his birthday and he bought himself (well, I wrote the check) a new grill.  Now I don't mean the kind you can pick up at Home Depot or Lowes, NO!  This grill has to be hauled around by a hitch and the back of a truck.  It is HUGE!  He was so excited about it that he just had to go get $200 worth of meat and fixin's to grill for his guys, regardless of the heat.  I'll take a picture of him next to it. . .oh, by the way, he's doing it again tomorrow! He's throwing himself a birthday barbeque  and inviting several buddies and his brother's and their boys.  Grilling ribs and shooting skeet. . .(sporting clays). . .you can bet I'll be at the house.  I guess a man just has to show off his toys!

Well, it is close to midnight and I am feeling so tired and yucky.  I've been trying to get a cold for several days now and I am all stuffed up and sneezing.  My dad and brother think that I share too much information (TMI), so, if you don't want TMI then skip down to the end cause I just have to say that I have wicked cramps and I'm crabby!  I'm staying up so I can be awake when Wes comes tonight.  (He is spending the night so he can come to the big bash Robert's having tomorrow.) Otherwise I would have been in bed hours ago. 

I had a great eBaying day today.  WooHoo!  I won an auction for 2 Victoria Secret's Body by Victoria bras for $15!  That's only $7.50 ea.  I love a good deal, and yes, they are brand new!  I wouldn't wear used undergarments!  I love eBay, I go on it everyday and look, but I am good about sticking to my budget and if the item goes over, then forget it.  I want a pair of Brighton sunglasses, but I loose sunglasses all the time, so I don't want to pay full price for them.  I am bidding on a pair now and it's  close to my $20 limit, but I'm still high bidder!  The auction is up tomorrow, so we'll see.

Well, I have rattled on for what seems like an eternity.  Have a GREAT weekend y'all!!
