THANKFUL THURSDAY & TIDBITS

WELL - finally baseball season has come to an end - (Thank God) (I am so not a fan really) but
it broke my heart that Tampa Bay did not win the world series...Congrats to the phillies but Lord I was so pulling for Tampa...gotta stick with the home team - sort of...lol
I am so looking forward to a football weekend - the gators will be playing the georgia bulldogs - biggest rival - the analysts say that whoever wins - has one of the best chances for the national championship.....Lordy I am praying hard for my Gators - they so deserve it!

Okay - enough about sports - The weather has been glorious here this week - in the high 40's at night and mid 60's during the day - WOW - weather I can breathe in - I am loving it!!!
It is suppose to be a bit warmer this weekend but I am hoping that more cold air is in the forecast soon!
The Hunnie and the daughter are doing the grocery shopping right now - YAYAYAY...
I made out the list - but somehow they get distracted and new things are added to the
list - so if they have added anything they will come home and all of a sudden they will butter
me up about how we needed something so they took the initiative and added it to the list. LOL-they crack me up....!
Okay - before I go on any further - I have noticed that there are some other Maxine lovers
out there - and they have been sharing their Maxine clips - well since my family thinks
that I am as close to Maxine attitude wise as anyone they know - (we even had the same slippers) I thought I should share mine with you all also....

Okay - it seems like the week has flown by because it is already THANKFUL THURSDAY...
so without further ado here are things I am THANKFUL for today:
1- my Hunnie and Daughter doing the grocery shopping - never complaining!!
2- for the cooler weather - I can breathe
3- for football - just gives me such pleasure to watch and cheer for
4- for Maxine - always knowing exactly what to say for any occasion.
5- for each and everyone of you - always stopping by and leaving such beautiful comments-
WOW - it just blows me away - the kindness shown!
6- for less anxiety - less tears - seems that fog (depression) is being kept at bay and I am able
to get on the computer so much more often!

WELL - I think I have lingered enough here - Thanks for stopping by and remember
to HUG someone you LOVE!!
PEACE~!~

PUMPKIN DECORATING AND RANDOM DIRT

I know - kind of lazy in my postings - to be honest - I have not felt up to par - lots of headaches - but I have noticed now that the cooler weather has hit the last couple of days - the headaches are
gone - maybe it is something to do with the atmospheric pressure - at least that is my story and I am sticking to it...lol.
Allen was away all weekend - he decided to head down south
to help out his brother with
fixing some cars that his brother owns - to be honest - this is one of the first times I did not mind. I think Allen needed a break away - he has been keeping himself busy but he also internalizes a lot and I think just getting away for a bit works for him...
the daughter was
home all weekend so I was not alone...we had a nice weekend - pigged out on munchies - played on the puters until the wee hours - laughed at silly stuff - watched football and some cool movies - so all was well.

Allen and Crystalyn did manage to buy some pumpkins last week - the perfect sizes for us...and of course we cannot be normal - so here are our decorated pumpkins--the daughter gets the credit - she amazes me:

Aren't they just the cutest pumpkins - LOL!!!
Okay have a mentioned that our high temps today will be 56 degrees - for Florida in October
that is COLD - but I am loving it - feels so good - makes the air so much easier to breathe for me!

Now onto a game.....
