Just a little funny

I keep thinking about getting an exercise bicycle...a recumbent exercise bicycle to be exact.  One I have been looking at is this Schwinn 230.

Of course I looked at the reviews, and  got a good chuckle with the one below--if you click on this link and go down and look at the 4 star reviews, it is about the 4th one down.  I did not make this up and I am not the one that submitted it.  It was submitted by Bubba from Bibb country.

Cup holder is great!

I am a big ol fat boy and I am considering doin something about that, I have been sitting on it some and that cup holder comes in handy to hold my beer. One ove these days I am going to get around to doin a little peddlin on it and I will let you know how it turns out!

✔ Yes,

I recommend this product. 

 

 

New book...

We were in Crawfordsville this morn before 9:30....hubbies appointment was at 9:45...so we had a few minutes to wait.  They did 61 patches...so far none are causing him to itch.  I don't know if that is a good thing or not.  Hopefully, we will at least know some things he is NOT allergic to.  He goes back Friday to have the patches removed...then back Monday.

I have had time this afternoon to do something productive, but do you want to know what I have done?

I have been working on my jigsaw puzzle while listening to the audible version of My Southern Journey by Rick Bragg....my SIL/Best Friend had been given it for Christmas and bless her heart, she told me about it.  I checked the library right then and put a hold on it.  Oh, if you are any part Southern, have family in the South, or just a bit Southern at heart, you would like this book.  I have laughed, cried and been teary eyed almost since the first words.  It takes me back to another place and time...he captures the heart of the place like no other author I have known.

There is a story about the Crazy Cat Lady (his mom). Another  story is title:  For a Vegetable I'll Have White Gravy....in the latter he says "I always wanted some washboard abs.  But I always seemed to want some babyback ribs.  Washboard abs are hard to get...I can get babyback ribs for $6.95 per pound."  Aren't we all at least a bit like that...some of us worse than others.

Oh it is just the most wonderful book...one I will go back to to listen to time and again. 

Archive digging...again

I have been sitting going through my photos.  I might add that I have been having the best time--it always brings back memories of pleasant days.  How do I know they were pleasant?  Because I seldom take photos when I am under stress of any kind.

Lorelei spent this past weekend with us, but had to go back to school yesterday.  She realized that her Aunt was leaving early Saturday morn.  It was her choice to come home with us, but before she left she hugged and hugged her Aunt.  As we were going out the door, her little dog Rosie ran out and Sarah had to rush out to catch her.

We got Lorelei in the seat and Sarah hugged her again, and went back in the house.  As she was shutting the door, Lorelei was saying to roll down her window.  By the time Roger got it rolled down, her mom had went in and shut the door, and Lorelei was crying....just big old tears and she couldn't help it.  With the crying, I could not uderstand what she wanted to tell her mom, so I got out and went back to her and asked....she wanted to tell her mom to give her Aunt one more hug. 

I ended up going back in and her Aunt came out and gave her more hugs and kisses.  We gave her the option of coming or staying there...she still wanted to come home with us...but she cried more on the way home.  I could hear the tears in her voice when she talked...not sobbing or anything, but you could still tell.  And then that night, when we went to bed, after we were supposed to be quiet, she started crying softly, and though I knew why, she felt the need to tell me she was crying cause she knew her Aunt would not be here the next day. 

How wonderful to be loved like that...
