Christmas was a grand success all around I believe. Robert & Fran sent some great munchies, and the most beautiful necklace I think I have ever seen! Mom and I think so much alike, we bought the same soaps to give out! They look like little rose buds! The ones I bought were white, and the ones mom got were multi color. I'M TURNING INTO MY MOTHER!!! Well, I could do worse. Diana got me the WHOLE collection of the Outlander books. I have listened to the books on tape, and am thrilled to get the books. All the munchies from R&F, and mom and dad are gone. I am still sipping on the mini bottle of Southern Comfort. I need to get back to mom and dads for more food before it is all gone.

well, as everyone knows , mom and dad are back at the big house, and have been relegated back to the slave quarters! lol This morning the temp was 27 at about 8:00. BRR! Good thing I had all my kids inside. we were all cozy warm.
I am on vacation, and no I am not going anywhere, however, I have spoken to Fran about visiting her in July. She said Robert might be gone to Japan, so the timing would be perfect! I could help Fran out with the baby while Robert is gone, and he can bring me back a nice silk robe. LOL! Fran said she would love to have me there. So I guess I'd better start planning now.

Trailer Trash...?


A few weeks ago while at work, a tooth that was apparently cracked, decided to give way! I made a dentist appointment, and it was confirmed I needed to have a crown put on that tooth. At the next appointment, I braced myself for the trays of goop they use to take impressions of the teeth. I thought I was doing rather well, I hadn't even gagged once! Until the last tray. I threw up on my dentist!!! I was mortified! Between bouts of gagging and throwing up, I kept saying how sorry I was to have gotten sick. I wonder if he will still call me when my crown is ready. lol. In the mean time I must tolerate the gold colored temporary crown.

Traffic was a bear on the way home! you would think marble falls was evacuating to burnet, and burnet was running to marble falls! Burnet square is lit up. I took pictures with my digital camera and will up load them tomorrow.

Never thought I'd see it! Gas at walmart is $1.59 a gallon! WOW!
Fed the fish in the tank by the well house on the way up the drive. I guess the dogs could hear the gate beeping open and closed, because I could hear them barking. Once I got to the house, I let ALL 4 dogs in, then out the front door to feed the fish in the other 2 tanks by the house. They all ran around like they had been locked up all day! lol
Now I am off to relax and not watch animal planet. I think I have had my fill already! Who'd a thought I'd be tired of it already?

Got up "early" around 8:00. Hey, it's early for me on an off day! Made coffee-yes daddy I unplugged the coffee pot-watched tv for a bit. Diana had called me Saturday and advised me Tyler's deer was ready. Made up a grocery list, got the stuff together mom had asked me to take to the library, and took off. Because I didn't write down directions to the processors, I had to call mom and dad in Tennessee! lol The processors was so far off the beaten path, I was wondering if "dueling banjo's" was gonna start playing! With the deer meat and myself safely back in the car, I headed for the library, dropped off the books in the manilla envelopes as instructed(See? I do as I am told! ok, sometimes), off to the post office and then HEB. All told I was gone for only about an hour. Now, to watch Animal Plante until I am sick of it!lol
