February has Flown By.....

This month is flying by. I can't believe that this is my 14th year of blogging.  I started on February 27, 2011 thanks to the encouragement from my friend Linda over at Linda's Life Journal. We met at a crawfish boil many years ago. Her son in law worked with my husband and we've stayed friends ever since. We don't see each other much but we know we're there.  

I want to say Thank you to some of my anonymous commenters for their kind words. Unfortunately I can't reply back to you directly because you're anonymous. LOL

Onwards and forward

Our book club met on Thursday 2/13 at Texas

 Seafood & Steak House to discuss the book 

chosen by Kelli (my coheart in crime and bookclub) called 

The Night we Lost Him by Laura Dave. It was a good book and we all really liked it. In the very beginning you learn that Liam falls to his death but was it an accident, suicide or did someone push him. As the reader we know that answer right off but not who. That's where his son Sam and his daughter Nora, each from a different Mother, reconnect and start investigating. Liam had secrets that they never knew and the one person who did know didn't share. That person let Sam and Nora put it together slowly on their own because it wasn't his story to tell. Of course there was lots of chatter and laughter during the meeting and There always is with this group..

Valentines Day my Honey took me out for lunch to Oscar Store in Temple area. We haven't had a bad meal there. They had a steak special and we also got a dessert. I took half my meal home for another meal and I ate a few bites 

of the dessert and so did David and the rest we took home to share sometime later. It was called a German Chocolate Cheesecake. Rich but really good.

When we got home I saw another new calf. It had just been born. We're naming this one Cupid. LOL Baby calves are so cute and entertaining. They just take off running and kicking and then the Momma Cow is chasing it down. Forest Gump is laying in what's left of the hay bail in the background. He was the one born on the 1/29. He's waiting on his new friend to get it's land legs so they can play and stress their Momma's out. LOL

Saturday (2/15) David was going to drive up to Hillsboro for a motorcycle helmet for racing and I said I'd ride with him. And then he surprised me and took me to Italy. Can you believe it?  Well don't. LOL. I mean he took me to Italy. Italy, Texas that is. We came back from Hillsboro a different way to see what Italy was like. The town was pretty quiet. And like most small towns in Texas it did have a Mexican food restaurant. One can never have too many of those. 

Maybe he'll take me to Paris or Athens next. We've been to Palestine many times. You can travel the world and never leave Texas. LOL

I was playing with snapchat one morning while drinking my coffee and listening to the weather. David used to think I had all these props and costumes to make these photos. I had to explain to him about snapchat and their apps.

My friend Donna Lynn aka Donna Lavender (because she loves purple.) called and asked if I'd like to come hang out with her and sew while her husband went deer hunting and I said sure. So on Thursday 2/20 I loaded up my car
with overnight bag and sewing supplies. 

We sewed our hearts out and loved on her puppies Dixie and Dollie. It took them a few days to get used to this stranger being in their home. I was able to get two quilt tops cut out and sewn together and left them for her to quilt.   Notice the wall, desk, machine, and shirt color.  This is why she's called Donna Lavender.   

When we went out to eat one night she stopped and got us some Buffalo Trace Cream Bourbon. I'd been telling her about Cream Bourbon so she stopped to get some.  I can only drink one glass but it's sooo good.  We had a lot of fun and got a lot done.

David sent me a picture of Bruno being all tired. David's back was hurting so he spent some time in the recliner with a heating pad and Bruno made sure he didn't move..  Bruno loves laying in David's lap.

Sadie girl had her 5th birthday on Friday 2/28. She's been such a good girl and she's smart.

And that's how February went and ended. Hope everyone had a good month.  It's time for a few birthday shenanigan's from Pamela and I..
