scary, hairy tunes.....

I took Maddie to Walmart yesterday morning and Karla brought Dylan to me after his conferences. We finished our shopping and he bought some of this webbing. He had a blast putting it up on my front porch and back porch!!!!



My scarecrow guy really does scare! Last time Lauren was here she laughed at me because I got a glimpse of it through the door and it scared me to death! The other night during a wind storm I brought him in because he was banging against the wall. Maddie arrived yesterday and got startled by him numerous times so he is back outside again. lol
While Dylan and I did the spider webs.... Maddie got her exercising on my bike! (Ignore the dust... I really am using it!)
Those kids were such a great help to me yesterday while I was in pain!!! Dylan helped carry all the groceries in, got me some Tylenol, took care of Maddie's needs without being mean to her all the time, and I told him how proud I was of him! That's because he is a "rock star" (which I am sure Karla will post about). Maddie got me water, covered me with a blanket and did some other little things for me. She is so compassionate when and to whom she wants to be.

Speaking of karla's site.... I cannot get my family links to show when they are updated!!!! It works for my Georgia family but not my own! hmmmm. frustrating!

I couldn't help but laugh at Dylan this morning. He slept on Andrews spot. When you see Andrew sleeping there he is totally tucked in and hardly moved all night. Dylan's bed is a wreck! lol!

Maddie wanted my background changed so we're back to this one. She won. I will have this til Sunday morning.... then who knows what. It is fun changing backgrounds and see what others do with theirs!

The kids and I had a good time last night..... I hurt my hip somehow.... muscle spasms in my left buttocks (which Dylan thinks is a hysterical word). Oh, I got him sooo good last night! I changed my ring tone to a doorbell on my cell. He was on the couch and I was in my chair watching Survivor when it went off.... his eyes got huge and he goes "Who could that be????" He was scared! I grabbed my phone and started laughing so hard I could barely talk (good thing it was papa). A little later I called my cell again without him looking. Bigger than life... he looked at the door again! We laughed again!!! Don't know if Maddie had as much fun last night. She would rather have Lauren. We did make a necklace and played with the cat. Got the best garlic roasted chicken for dinner last night. Didn't eat the skin.... but didn't need to because the flavor in the meat was SO GOOD! Got it at Walmart! Made papa taco's because he's been craving them and I think he is tired of chicken right now. He wanted beef.

Thanks all for the congrats on my weight loss. I am so proud of myself. I will continue this... I have my grandkids encouragement now. The grandkids that always say "You're not fat, mam!" Gotta love them.

Enjoy your Friday and may God make it go fast for you so you can start your weekend!!!! xoxo

Weather to Expect:
As you step outside this morning, the first thing you?ll notice is how mild the temperatures are. We'll start out in the 50s with high temperatures in the upper 50s and low 60s this afternoon. A few scattered showers are in the forecast during the day with stormier weather arriving later tonight. Expect another round of heavy rain and strong winds as a cold front moves our way.

Winds start backing off on Saturday but showers will stick around during the day. We start drying out for Saturday night, so the Halloween festivities look fairly dry with only the chance of a shower over your neightborhood.

An early morning shower Sunday, otherwise we'll keep it dry for the second half of the weekend with temperatures running in the mid to low 50s.
