May 1, 201511 yr So far today I have sacked the dog walker, she was lucky she didn't get my boot up her ass as well! Weeding and a bit of garden landscaping lol(don't tell rez shh ;)) Tonight making muffins, digging a large hole as rez is building a large fire pit/bbq afterwards going for a cruise on the bike if we have energy left, then fat panz and wine :) Tommorow building said pit, planting my fairy herb garden (again dont tell Rez about the fairy bit ;) if pit finished, fire and wine Sunday bbq and chillax hopefully :)
May 1, 201511 yr I got a peel this afternoon, can't wear makeup til tomorrow so I will be working out at home tonight. On the plus side, the nurse who did it (not joking it was a nurse) said, "at least you are coming in early, so that when you hit 35 you will already have your skin care under control." Cough. It's been a long time since I saw 35 in the rear view mirror.
May 1, 201511 yr Major remodeling project begins this weekend...brace yourselves...I will probably be bitching about this for months to come. Please keep reminding me how great it is going to be when finished. My husband and his brother (who is a general contractor) plan to do most of the work, themselves...so that is why it will take so long. Tonight, though, wine and food with friends, and then we will take a break tomorrow to meet friends for dinner and watch the Kentucky Derby!
May 7, 201511 yr This Friday, Tracey and I are going camping in the backyard to see how Buddy will do. Going to set up the tent with sleeping bags, Coleman lantern, cook some steaks on our new outdoor wood/charcoal grill and have some beverages. Just a practice as we want to go canoeing and camping this summer but do not know what it will be like with Buddy. Will he keep us up all night howling at the moon or jumping around the tent trying to get out lol.

We went camping last summer at a campground which required dogs to be leashed at all times. My brother's family brought their dog too. We shared a site. Our dog was a bit new to us - we had him about a year, and we had never taken him camping. It did not go well at all! He hated being on the leash, wasn't sure about the other dog or the other people. He slept (more like stayed awake) in our tent with us, but got really cold and wouldn't lay under any blankets. He wouldn't eat. He was tired, cold, hungry and grouchy!!! It's great that your are doing a test run. Maybe try keeping him leashed during your trial run if the place you are going requires it. And maybe introduce him to any other dogs and people that you may be camping with. And maybe get a dog sweater for him if it might be cold at night - early morning. Or maybe he will be just fine, cuz he is still a happy fun little puppy. :)

May 8, 201511 yr Taking Mumsy out for some dinner in Episkopi. Might even risk a cold beer or two.... :popcorm1:
May 8, 201511 yr Author no real plans for this evening...just get a jump start on the cleaning and laundry I have to do tomorrow...the more I get done tonight..the more I can enjoy my saturday. Saturday evening I am going to my cousin's house to see her and her family and also her dad...who is my uncle..my dad's brother...his last living sibling. Sunday my mom, sisters and my daughter are coming to my house for a brunch....I think I'll also serve mimosa's. yum. Need brunch ideas....healthy and gluten free
May 8, 201511 yr I LOVE egg casseroles. Eggs, hash browns, cheese (I like to mix jalepeno jack & sharp cheddar), bacon (or sausage or ham), green chilis. YUMMY!!! I put hash browns, cheese, bacon & Green chilis in a bowl and mix it together, then put it in a baking dish. Then beat 8-12 eggs with like a half cup or so of cream. Pour over & Bake. Maybe not the healthiest with the cheese & potatoes & bacon, but so good!!! I made this for one of our volleyball tournament days. It was devoured. Kids & parents alike loved it. :) Check Pinterest. That's where I found the recipe. It didn't have green chilis, but you can add ingredients that you like. :)
May 8, 201511 yr Just a practice as we want to go canoeing and camping this summer but do not know what it will be like with Buddy. Be sure to buy a doggie life vest for the canoe ride!!! I'm not joking. We took our dog on long canoe trips all the time and she did great once she figured out the rules. But that life vest earned it's money more than once. My weekend plans - cook, clean, shop, etc. and phone calls to solidify vacation plans with friends who are coming up this summer.
May 9, 201511 yr Picked my daughter up from the airport after her 8th grade trip to DC!!! Happy to have my Girl back home.

May 22, 201511 yr Author There was a cow blocking traffic on my way to work this morning...not a typical thing you see on a highway here in New Jersey...needless to say I was late for work and it was on the news and everything. Glad it wasn't an accident but I was sitting there not moving for 30 min then all of a sudden I see the cops coming in my direction weaving thru traffic....and they were escorting the cow...who was coming right towards me....what a sight to see. I thought it was a bull. LOL anyway....I was wondering if we could have a chat party tonight
