Wednesday and…

I am too P**ped to to pop.  http://usads.ms11.net/shanehill.html    answer # 9 at this link.  In plain English, I am worn out.

I was up this morning at 6 AM.  I picked up my daughter shortly after 7 and we went to Menards and Walmart where I purchased a new shower curtain and bubbly mat for the tub.  Then back home where we had tea and a doughnut that was decorated so prettily with white frosting and sprinkled with red white and blue sugar.  Dontcha just love the 4th of July??  I do!!  I LOVE America with all of its faults!  And what could be nicer than a doughnut with red white and blue sprinkles.  I tell you, it just doesn’t get any better than that.

Then, getting down to business.  We, mostly my daughter climbing around, cleaned the bathroom, walls and all and put up the new shower curtain.  Then we moved everything out of the utility room which was no small chore.  My daughter proceeded to clean the walls in there and mop the floor.  She helped me unpack a couple of plastic tubs that I had never unpacked from when I moved here 2 years  ago.  I found 4 small photo albums that I need to go through and get the pics on the computer.  We ended up with 3 boxes and 2 sacks full of stuff for Goodwill.

After dropping the stuff off at Goodwill we stopped at one of the McDonalds  which was next door.  Turns out we should have gone to the other Mickey Ds which is closer to my house.  There must have been 50 or so middle school age kids from a church group that were being treated to a lunch there.  It was a problem ordering our lunch because of all of the noise.  Don’t kids that age make a lot of noise?  I don’t mind the noise.  Those were happy kids.  I repeat again, I LOVE America!  Better those kids be involved with a church group than out wandering around getting into trouble.

So that has been my day so far.  I still have quite a bit of stuff to put away and Y&R has been recorded for me to watch later.  Actually it has been a really good day for me.
Stay safe and be happy!!

Happy Birthday America!

God Bless America Lyrics 
by Irving Berlin

 
God bless America,
Land that I love,
Stand beside her and guide her
Thru the night with a light from above;
From the mountains, to the prairies,
To the oceans white with foam,
God bless America,
My home, sweet home.
God bless America,
My home, sweet home.

I hope you all have a safe and happy holiday.  Big thank you to our men and women in the military.

Red heart  Beth
