Same Ole...Same Ole

Just checking in after I realized that I had not written in a week.  Nothing major going on but just babysitting my great nephew and we seem to be busy non-stop and we needed a day like today to relax after church. That is what me and my fam have been doing all day.

My heart goes out to my friends who live in West Tennessee and Middle Tennessee.  I cannot believe the flooding and I can't believe that a year ago we lived in that area.  I am thankful for living in East Tennessee but my thoughts have been filled with my friends who still live there.

We did have a few hours on Saturday where my friend Georgia and I went to a few yard sales, just messing around on a pretty day. One local church was having a yard sale and breakfast and we bought homemade sausage and biscuits that were really good.  The older people of their church were cooking and let me tell you they threw out a breakfast spread like no other and it smelled so good. 

We had lunch(Zaxby's) with my parents and then I came home and crashed on the couch the rest of the evening.

This is where I will insert that our air conditioning quit working last night.  This is also where I will tell you that it was 90 today and will be over the next few days.  UGH!   It is pretty bad when it's cooler outside than inside.

Someone is supposed to come tomorrow and look at it. I am praying that it will be fixed quickly.  This reminds me of when I was little and all we had back then was window air conditioners.  Back then we just had to deal with the heat.   I must say that is was nice sitting outside on the front porch and the wind was pretty strong and it was very relaxing. :)

I am working on a new blog look..big surprise... I hope it turns out pretty..Something for the Summer. 

BTW...I cannot believe it is May!   May is a big month in our family.  Mother's Day,  Parents anniversary, Mother's birthday,  Memorial Day.  Two friends have a birthday this month. All the above within days of each other. 

One last trivial thing...I look forward to the first day in May....to the Kentucky Derby.   I never bet but I like to look at the horses and pick the horse I think will win.  I am pretty good at it, except this year, my horse came in 8th place.  I would love to go to the Derby ..that would be on my bucket list.  I love the BIG hats and dressing up etc... It was such a great race and  the horses are just gorgeous.   I lived in KY for 5 years and we never got to go but one day I may be there sporting my BIG hat. lol

I promise I will be back with something better to read than  this post. ;)     Just wanted to check in...how are you??
