Starting this book today.  It is the 2nd book in a series.  I really liked the first one so hopefully this one is just as good.

Encanterra does fireworks on the 3rd so that people have the 4th to do other things. Alicia, Arnold and the kids have been coming here the last few years to watch them.  They come hang out for the day, we swim at the Dukes and then go down to the golf course and wait for the show.

Today’s Pic of the Day:

Annabelle turned me on to this app called Color Happy.  It is basically a paint by number. We would sit and do pictures together when she was here.  But then I got hooked.  There are all kinds of pictures, plus there is a daily one.  Everyday I at least do the daily picture.  

Here’s today’s daily. Plus I did one in honor of the Canadian holiday, Canada Day.

Today’s Pic of the Day:

Kev took me to the gym again today to ride the bike again, but I was really struggling to get the pedals around.  So I decided to try a walk on the treadmill.  It was super slow, but I was able to do a mile.

Today’s Pic of the Day:

I was up early enough to see the sunrise on my walk this morning.  4 laps around the block.  


Then Kev took me to the gym and I rode the bike for 15 minutes.

I sent this picture to Alicia so she could show Eli that Papa had found his surprise in his bed last night.  


The. Alicia sent me this to tell me how Eli was telling here how he was so excited to trick Papa.

Today’s Pic of the Day:

The kids spent the night and here’s a few things they were up to.  

Lainey made this pic on her light board.  It says I love you. 


Emery helped me clean out the toy box.  She is tossing “Gladys” in the trash.  Gladys was a puppet Alicia made when she was in college.  Somehow we still have it, until today.  


Kev had put this candy box in Eli’s bed last night, so he wanted to put it in Papa’s bed to get even.

Today’s Pic of the Day:

We have this bike stand that attaches to your own bike so that it’s basically a stationary bike.  Kev put my bike in it today so that I could try it.  It was a little tough.  It was hard to get on it and not real comfortable for me yet.  


But then later in the day, we went to the gym here in the hood and I tried the bike in there.  Once we got the seat height adjusted it worked great.  Kev had to help me get my foot on the stirrup but I did a 10 min ride.

Found this post on Facebook.  We do runs with this company, StartLine Racing.  They always have a Christmas in July sale and put a handful of races that we sign up for with a discount.  Hopefully some of the ones we like hit the sale this year.

While doing my laps around the block today I got some awesome sky pictures.  A rainbow this morning and then just some pretty clouds tonight. 




As of January 2009, I no longer have a job. It's not that I lost it, but after 26 1/2 years of working at the Post Office, I retired. According to everyone I know, I don't do anything all day, so I decided to start a blog. Now I can blog about what I don't do all day. I am married to Kevin, who is the most awesome husband I could ever have. It's because of him, that I do not go to work any more. I love that and I love him for that. Between the 2 of us we have 4 children. Hunter 31, Heather 29, Paul 28 and Alicia 26.
