It’s already April…

Posted by cybertoad on 04/05/2006 in re-caps |

Wow! It’s already April and the weekend has flown by. I’ll try to catch you up…

Friday: I took the day off so I could catch up on myself. Work has just been too much the past month or so. I took the day to run errands – finally got more $.02 stamps and mailed an Easter goodies package to my nieces – and got a much needed haircut! I am back to my short hairdo since the weather is warming up and I was honestly getting tired of my shaggy mid-length hairdo. I felt frumpy and the new haircut is much more me! I need to take a much better pic but will post before and after photos when I do.

Friday night: Since I took the day off I was able to join Kenny and his friends at their regular Friday night pool gathering. We played in teams and Kenny says I did really well. I was on the winning team more than half the time and I made the “ooh” a couple of times when I made some of the more difficult shots. Kenny says he honestly enjoyed playing with me more than he had anticipated and is encouraging me to come out more often. I might take him up on it if I can.

After pool we headed to dinner at Star Pizza and had a nightcap at The Social.

Saturday: Went shopping! Kenny and I were lucky and were able to stock up on slacks at really good prices. He found a bunch of his favorite Nautica pants on sale and I found nice fitting khakis at New York & Company – also on sale.

Saturday night: We had stayed out all day so we stayed home that evening. Kenny had to laundry anyway in preparation for a business trip the next day.

Sunday: Kenny headed off to College Station for a conference (he’ll be gone till Thursday afternoon) and I went to pick up my Mom. We had lunch then headed back to my house. We have been completely slack in the housecleaning duties and my Mom offered to come over and help. With her help we put away all the clean laundry, thoroughly dusted the living room and the master bedroom, swept both room as well (including sweeping the huge dust bunnies out from under the sofa and from behind the bed), cleaned the ceiling fans and floor fan. She even cleaned my patio table while I planted some leftover marigolds and a passion vine.

At 8:30 PM I finally drove her back home. We of course stopped for dinner on the way. She was a big help. I still have more cleaning to do but the house is so much less dusty now!

Now I am just waiting for Kenny to come home… just another day and a half!

1st book of 2006

Posted by cybertoad on 03/13/2006 in library |

I finally finished a book a few weeks ago that I have been reading since late last year titled Savage Girl by Alex Shakar. It’s the first book I’ve finished for 2006… yay! The book was OK. It dragged on though and although I would get drawn in I just as quickly lost interest. I […]

Twelfth Book of the Year!

Posted by cybertoad on 12/30/2005 in library |

I almost forgot to write my last book review of the year! As you may recall, back in January I let my one magazine subscription expire and I vowed to get back into reading actual books once again like I used to. I have kept track of them here on the blog via the “Toad’s […]

I’m back…

Posted by cybertoad on 12/05/2005 in california, usa |

I made it back home late last night and I’m tired! I got to LAX less than 30 minutes before my flight left so even though I made it on the plane, my luggage did not. LOL. So, I had to watch everyone else’s luggage go down the chute and then go and make my […]

Woo-hoo! I’ve booked myself a birthday trip to California! More specifically I’m heading to the LA area to visit a friend who lives in the heart of Hollywood (her apartment is between Hollywood Blvd. and W. Sunset Blvd, a block from each). I’ve never been out here and really am looking forward to the break […]

Blue skies & golden hills…

Posted by cybertoad on 09/08/2005 in pacific nw, usa |

I hope everyone had a safe labor Day weekend with friends and family. I had a nice time visiting Kenny up in the “Inland Northwest”. I flew into Spokane late Thursday night which is about 80 minutes from Pullman where Kenny is staying. Throughout the weekend the weather was perfect (mid 80’s during the day, […]
