Pictures!!!

Well , this is life down in New Jersey, the tan house is the place that the hubby gets to stay in during the week while he is working.  As you can see the house next to it is pretty darn close and that is the way the whole place is, you are right on top of your neighbors.  The next picture is their back yard, what there is of it of course.   The next few pictures are  of the street going to the bookstore that we love down there.  You can find just about anything in this store!  It isn't a bad town, but it is still part of a bunch of towns that are right on top of each other.   I would defiantly not like living there at all!!   Nice to visit because you can find anything your heart desires but no thank you!  I will take my country life any day!

Hope you all have a wonderful day!

Blogger

Well, blogger is being a real pain!!!  It will not let me post pictures, it is telling me that I have used up all my space even though I have deleted and freed up more space.  So, for now I have no way to post pictures and I am not going to pay for more space.  I know for sure that I should have plenty.

I had a very hectic weekend, and I am glad to be back home now and this is the first full week at home that I will have without having to go to an outside job and boy do I have my week all planned out and lots to do.  Along with the weaving and playing with the horses! 

I will post pictures as soon as I can.  I have lots of different things to share with you all.   Hope you all have a great day.

Day 3

Well, both  sides to the house is done.   I enjoyed myself, the hubby took me out to dinner for steak at the longhorn restaurant and had prime rib!!!  Still not as  good as mine ;)  JB, I will have pictures when I get back tomorrow.   I am on the hubbies laptop and can't put pictures on it.  

Bought some new bedding for the bed at JC Penny and walked the mall and bought just candles and measuring spoons and a grill brush.  I refrained from dragging the hubby into the clothing stores, too!

I am finally getting the hang of driving in the neighborhood where they are staying and is getting easier to get around and I am sure by the time that the summer is over that I will really know my way around.

Well, hope you all had a good day and I will be back tomorrow with pictures!

Day 2

My full day here was busy, went with the hubby to his company office and met a few of the guys that he works with.

He went to work then I went grocery shopping for him and then started cleaning one side of the house.  The house is divided into two separate apartments if you want to call it that.  I cleaned the one side and tomorrow I will be cleaning our side, or should I say the hubbies side!  What a chore.  I am getting well paid that is for sure!

Now I am cooking some supper then I will be done for the evening and I can relax.  The hubby has to work 3 to 11 and that means he leaves here at 1 and then he doesn't get home until 12.  That is in the afternoon until night.  

Well, the day started out sunny and now it is raining again.  I still say better than snow!
Have a great evening.

Rain

I am down in New Jersey and loving not having to do much except just sit and relax.  The good thing about having your kids almost grown is that they can be home alone and do the chores without having mom at home!   The only thing I don't like is they of course can never do things like I do them and I can be pretty picky sometimes!   They do a good job though.   I like having down time, and coming to see the hubby is my down time.  

Even though  I have to be the cleaning lady for a day, it is the price of not having to do the chores for a few days.  I can deal with that.  But ladies, have you ever had to clean a guys domain before, not fun!!  I am lucky and it looks like these guys know how to keep things picked up and they don't have much in this house being as they all have a real homes to go to on the weekends and so the only real thing they have down here is the bare essentials!  So, it is going to be fairly easy to clean.

They don't have much for food though.  I think I will have to hit the store tomorrow for some real food.
I got down here and decided that I really didn't want to drive anymore today so I didn't go anywhere once I got here, and I hate driving places in the busy towns that you have no idea where anything is and I am sorry but I probably could get lost in a paper bag!    The garmin is nice to have but it still is a pain in the rear to get around down here and the traffic is always bad, no matter what time of day you go out.  

City drivers are CRAZY!  My hubby calls me chicken and you know what, YES I AM!  Now I know why I do not ever want to live in the city.   It is not NEW YORK city but to me all these little towns are combined and you almost might as well be in NY city!  The hubby would disagree as he actually does have to go over into the city everyday and the traffic around here doesn't compare.  I don't care, it still is crazy people behind the wheel of all those millions of cars that go like a bat out of hell, no matter where they go they are in a hurry!

I guess I better quit ranting on about city drivers and let this post end on that note!  You all have a wonderful evening and just so you know, if you come to the city, let someone else do the driving, it is better that way.  I try my best to make the hubby do all the driving down here.  The only place I like to drive to is the grocery store, because that is the easiest place for me to get to.


Oh I mentioned rain at the top, well, it has been raining now for the last couple of days and I drove three hours in the rain to get down here.  Now isn't that even more fun!  I will take it, NO SNOW, is good.

SVF

That is the name of the farm,  not much going on today.   I just get to go and have another root canal done.  Lucky me, NOT!  Hopefully it will be the last one for quite some time.   Had quite a scare over the weekend.  My dad had a heart attack and he was very lucky because he called and they got to him before it got worse.   There was a blockage in the largest artery in the front of his heart and it is one of the blockages that they call the widowmaker because most of the time people die of this particular heart attack!   He does still have a blockage in one of the arteries that is in the lower part of the heart that is 60 to 70 percent blocked and they are going to try and fix it with medication.  Not a good phone call to get at 10:00 at night that is for sure.  But he is doing really good now and hopefully he will get to come home today.   I live over 800 miles from home and that makes it a lot harder to handle because I can't just drive over and it wasn't fun because the hubby just happened to be at work also, and that is three hours away.  I have a fantastic mother-in-law!   I called her and she got me settled down.  I married into one of the best families ever!  Not to often people can say they love their in laws!  

The weather is rainy here today but it sure is nice to be into the spring season finally, but I never rule out a flurrie or two!   We have gotten snow in May before.  We are supposed to get mostly 50's this week and not down to freezing at night which is good.   I might actually get some horse time in, next week.   This week the post will be mostly written as I am going down to the city to be with the hubby for the week.  Hope you all have a wonderful day!

Sunshine

Today is a very beautiful day!   The sun is shining and lots of signs of spring!  I saw a Robin and heard the Killdeers this morning!    Nothing is better than walking out the door and seeing the sun shining and hearing the animals ready for their breakfast!

I am taking the son shopping.  I promised him that I would take him because I always take the daughter and never him and he wanted to go (don't get me wrong he is all boy and the only thing he really wants is new cloths!)  I asked him if he wanted me take him and he said, I have cloths that fit, I don't need new one, Mom.  Then in the next sentence he told me that he wouldn't mind getting some new socks and other personal things!   So, off we go just him and I.  I don't mind going but just the thought of driving for an hour and then shopping most of the day and driving back.  I do have an agenda though ,  I need a new pillow, a new comforter for our bed.   Hmmmm, did I say that I hate shopping ;)

Hope you all have a wonderful day.
