You know, I really should read the instruction manual to my camera. I've had it for over six months and still I'm taking dark, shadowy pictures. I'll bet Monica cringes when she sees them; resisting the urge to touch them up, or at least write to me with some basic pointers....
I never wake up hungry, sometimes not realizing I haven't eaten until lunch time rolls around. For some reason I was starving this morning. So, I had a lovely bowl of Apple Jacks. Why? I do not know. I'm not an AJ kind of person. I'm more of a Lucky Charms girl (someone's always after me Lucky Charms!), but alas, we are out. I haven't had any taste, literally, for days now. This cold has made everything taste the same....bland. I made cheezy cauliflower soup last night and everyone raved about it....but I couldn't taste it. I must have put half a salt lick in, but nothing. I suppose I should take this time to jump start a diet....but, I don't want to. **procrastination alert** I'll do it in January.
It has been so sickening warm here lately....however last night a "cold front" moved through, and this morning it is crisp and cool outside. This is what I heard on the news yesterday. I couldn't believe it.
Weatherman: "Enjoy our 85 degree day today because it will be the last summer day before the weekend. We've got a cold front coming through and it's going to bring some cold, fall weather. Tomorrows high will ONLY be 72...." OMG....I had better break out the sweaters! Where are the kids mittens?! Who's got the winter coats? What about the children? Won't somebody think of the children?! It's like Florida goes into a massive panic attack if the temps fall below 80. Sheesh! You should see it if there is a chance of frost....they will actually break in to our regular programming to warn us. "Folks, you are going to want to go out and cover your plants....we are under a SEVERE FROST WARNING!" Dear Lord where are my sheets? What about the seedlings? Won't somebody think of the seedlings?
Oh Florida, don't get all mad....I kid because I love.....
Anyhoo....I need to get on with my day. It's almost bus stop time and I need to get wee one ready. Keep warm....I know I will....I'm going to go start a pot of coffee, and put another log on the fire....yup, hunkerin' down here in FL. Gotta fight off those bitter winds....

Very pretty bedding items! Something is wrong with the picture though - there isn't a toy on the floor or any mess to be seen.
California gets the same way if there is a tad bit of rain. It's very funny.

LMAO! Sherry you crack me up! FL doesn't deserve you! Come back home to IN:) It's colder here. High today is 54* and it's about that, windy. At least the sun is shining after what seems like weeks of endless rain! I'll send some your way, or at least the cold:)
Hugs,
Heather
I LOVE the bedding and valance!! You're right...it goes too perfectly to resist another for the top bunk, especially at the price you got them for! WOW! Her room looks like something out of a design show. Great job! :-)
I've been happy with the weather being in the 60's during the day and 50's at night...I've even been closing my windows at night sometimes!

Love your journal! Thanks for leaving a link in my comment section so I could come over and take a look. I grew up in FL. I know those "cold front" days. TOO FUNNY!
My sister and her kids still live there. Her two oldest came out here to CA this summer for a visit. I told them to bring jeans and a jacket because it gets CHILLY at night...even in the summer, and ESPECIALLY if you are anywhere near the city or the water. They didn't believe me until we had to buy them fleece jackets their second day here when we were touring the city. LOL. It's colder in SF in the city in the SUMMER, than mid winter in FL. Now they want to come out here next month to surf and see the snow. I was like....YOU BETTER BRING HEAVY COATS! And No more flip flops!!!
LOl.
:)

I can't make up my mind what made me laugh more the song or the entry. You got it goin' on kid! Log on the fire LMAO!
Cool song. Who is it by? Cold front in Florida. Funny!!!!
getting cold here althought it hasn't rained in two days the ground is still wet and mushy. MR SUN MR GOLDEN SUN PLEASE SHINE DOWN ON ME. I would much rather be where you are. Hope you are back to feeling gr8 soon.
I love the bedding, it really does go perfect in her room and what a bargain as well. I like all your pics, they are far better than any of my attempts. Maybe we should all ask Monica for lessons ;).........Jules xxx

It must be colder on the panhandle as my son was complaining that it was cold this morning in Sunny Florida. Maybe, he's too much of a California boy and not used to the weather dropping below 75. Mmmm, it has me wondering.
Camera manuals? What's that? I've NEVER read the manual to my camera ... I leave that boring reading for Sonny! He actually knows the camera better than I do, and he's always teaching me new things with the camera. So, technically speaking I'm a flunky with the camera! Shhhhh, don't tell on me though!
Monica
Stop complaining about your weather! IT's 3° here! ;p

lol GA is like that too when cool weather moves in. We went from 88 to 70, woohoo! I wore a turtleneck yesterday and loved it. Ben just shakes his head,lol
I do hope you start feeling better soon and as for reading the instructions on the camera...I haven't done that yet either and have had it almost a year. shhh don't tell Monica! lol
Gretchen
The room looks lovely! Oh yes..hahaha! LOL I saw the vaccum lines first and then read your comment! then I had to laugh out loud!
I sure hope you feel better, I always think if I had no taste buds it would be great way to loose weight!..because then you don't "feel" like eating anything..no cravings bla bla bla
We live in CA, and finaly some rain just wet the street, I want snow! and I want buckets of rain ..and I want to wear a coat! lol...when I do..I get laughed at! oh well..at least I am ready in case of sudden storm! lol
have a WONDERFUL day! You are such a happy person! I love reading your stuff!
lol. you're "hunkering" down? lol gotta love that phrase!
I love your **procrastination alert** and I hope you don't mind too terribly if I use it from time to time (okay, the truth, I'll probably use it ALOT :)
hunkering and whilst. boy, I gotta get busy using these words!!! :)
