Good Morning!
Had a very nice weekend running around all over the place. We were gone almost all day Saturday and Sunday....in the evening we came home and tried to amke our house look more like a home....we hung lots of pictures, rearranged furniture and stuff like that. Little by little things are getting done here, but we still have a long way to go.
Chicago was nice, went to our favorite hot dog place and had a hot dog, walked around for a bit and went home

Yeah we are exciting aren't we. But most of our friends think that we are nuts because we will go to Chicago JUST for a hotdog. But what a hotdog it was!!! Cheeseburger in Paradise is also about an hour away...won't tell anybody we would go that far just for a cheeseburger either

Actually, we went to the Great Indoors with that trip in mind..CIP was just an afterthought...and a darn good one I might add. I had a BBQ Cheesebrger....YUMMY! Greg had a salad of some sort that was very yummy too...and if you have never had their signature drink..CHeeseburger in Paradice, I highly reccomend it. OMG...so good...and really quite reasonable if you ask me. And they are garnished oh so cute!! So, that was my weekend...all about the food
Sherry...glad to heara Junior has a day off...any big plans for the day...or it today that 40 minute day?
Hey Tara! So what are you stiching now? Do tell...you know we all want to know. Cross stich has never been something I could do well...and NEVER look at the back of anything I have done...heck, you might not want to look at the front either!
Elaine, hope they fix your water issue...and your yard~ Hope it doesn't get too cold there too...or you might be able to go skating. Hope the tummy is feeling better...Meatloaf souds like somehting I just might have to make for dinner tonight...Yummy.
Hey Betty

How was your road trip? Hope you were able to have some fun with your daughter....is this the ame one that was sick? Hope she is feeling better too! Any big plans for the day? I will be getting some work done from last week that I did not get done....I am going to try to cram 20 ours worth into 8...I will let you know how that goes. Somehow the DIS always gets the best of me
Hey Bethie~ Sounds like you had a very fun weekend. I gues you spent the better portion of it with LOTS of ding a lings, huh?

Sorry, I just could not help myself! How did the pork roast turn out?
Amanda, how was your weekned? I bet it was nice to get out of church a little early huh? Let me know how it goes on getting HSM tickets....hope you are able to get right in and get them. Chicago sold out mainly during the presale....hope you ahve better luck than I did.
Hey Todd!! Well I have finally done it... I have attracted not only birds, but squirrels to my feeder

They make me so mad....but I do get a good chuckle when they fall off the feeder though. For Christmas, I am asking for a squirrel proof feeder. I just really don't like that squirrel! Good luck with your Christmas list as well
Hi Pammy, Alan, Rose Mary, Paula. Lily and anyone else I may not have mentioned~ It is early here and I am not quite yet up and thinking.....
Oh and for what it is worth...I am thinking about doing a girls weekend in Chicago the firsst weekend in May. Anybody that would like to come is welcome and can stay here. I live about an hour away from the city and think some day trips to the city would be great fun. If anybody is interested, do let me know.......
Off to get some work done. Have a great day, one and all
