Sometime last week I remember there was some talk about camping and I responded Eh....Camping. Maybe I should explain my disdain regarding it. When I was very young, back in the 60's, my family went camping every weekend. One time my father decided to camp at a different campgrounds, but forgot to tell my sister and I where we were. We got up that morning, ate breakfast and my sister and I went exploring. Short story.....We became lost. For over 12 hours. We were muddy, our legs all scratched up, cockleburr's tangled in our hair and hungry and scared. My sister thought the lake looked small and wanted to walk around it. It was 70 acres. We finally found a hwy and saw a house up the road. When went to the door and knocked and asked for help. The drunken lady turned us away and told us to go…

My inspection went well exactly what I prayed for. Yes there are issues and they are expensive but at least I know what they are.

This is a funny post, but nonetheless to me much praiseworthy.

So, it was my birthday and hubby had asked the day before if we should go out to eat. We just about never do; I prefer my own simple and healthy food, seriously! I figured I could work around in the garden all day to my hearts delight and not have to make a meal, instead we would check out the newly renovated, changed owner Italian place in town. ^ PM we got all dressed up (not really!) jumped in the car and found that they are not open THAT day. So home we went and I threw together birthday soup and made bananasplits for dessert. What a wonderful, fast meal we enjoyed with dessert, all for under $10 total.
