S L O W L Y. . .

Slowly, I'm continuing to check off items from my "To Do" List. Here is today's progress:



I purchased and planted flowers in my front beds. I purchased these at a garden center out north of town. They usually have lots of flowers to choose from, but today the selection was not that great. Hopefully with a little water, these guys will perk up and look better. I bought three flats and am probably about 4 or 5 inpatients short. I will need to pick up a few more to finish planting around the tree.



I had hoped to purchase flowers to put in my pots, but they didn't have what a wanted. That is really just the story of my life! Nobody has everything I need! Why in today's superstore climate can we not get everything in one spot? Walmart has things that Target doesn't and of course the opposite is true too. I have to go to Market Street for things that neither Walmart or Target carry. You have to go to Lowes for some things, but then Home Depot for others... It never ends! Drives me nuts!

Well, today was the day... I broke down and turned on my air conditioner! Boy is it hot already! I would prefer the temps be about 10-15 degrees cooler. Alas, I believe summer is nipping at our heels!

Sadly, I too have turned on the AC! Probably I would not have and just suffered through it. However, my new house guest (Chris and Winston) begged me too.

Now when you finish there just come on over to Benbrook! I have a few planters that need help too!!!

I turned the air on too. I agree with you- I like it 10 to 15 degrees cooler.

It's SATC Saturday Again

First, I will start you off with a little movie... Sex and the City- All the Best Moments from the Movie. WARNING : If you haven't seen the movie, don't watch this.  Oh, and also please rectify this ASAP.  Ann-  they have the movie at your local TJ Maxx for $5.99.  I meant to buy it for you when I was there and bring it to you at Robin's party, but I got distracted by lamps and forgot (sorry!).  This week has been pretty lame-o on the updates front. All I have found is that there are reports of some drama on the set between Kim Cattrall and SJP.  Of course there have been reports in the past that these two gals didn't get along (personally I think it is just because KC is a little too big for her britches and doesn't seem to always remember that SJP is an executive producer and Carrie is, well the star ).  There are also reports that SJP is possibly a little overwhelmed with having the two new twin girls and little James Wilkie to take care of...
