Going To Give It A Try

Today is Wednesday, February 20, 2013.  The sun is shinning it is just gorgeous, notice I said gorgeous not warm.  It looks so very inviting outside until you step out that door.  So today I will work inside and just admire the beauty outside.

I have been wanting for a very long time to redo my blog.  However, I am not really good at doing graphics at all.  I can not draw and I can't do anything on the computer.  So I am going to try to do something with it.  Oh I do know what I would like the finished product to look like.....it's just gong to be a challenge to get it there.  We shall see what happens, if anything.

Got into it with young son last night.  He has to be home no later than ten no matter what night of the week it is.  I don't think that this is unfair considering that George and I have to be up at four and he can sleep all day if he chooses to do so.  He believes that he should be able to come and go as he pleases, boy turn 17 and get a car look I am all grown up now. NOT!  So needless to say he isn't happy and at this point it just confirms how I feel about sixteen year olds and older right now.  It seems like as soon as they turn that magickal sixteen their whole personality changes.  I so wanted to wake his behind up at four this morning and keep him up all day doing things. But then common sense said do you really want to hear him cry and complain all day?

Our local produce stand has asparagus on sale for $1.99 a pound! So George is going to stop on the way home and get ten pounds. You know what I will be doing after dinner tonight.  I love, love, love asparagus!

With George's work schedule we won't be able to go south for a couple of more weeks. But that's okay I guess, at least we are going to get to go together.

  1. Oh, I remember those days with my son. 16 is a rough age. They know it all and prefer to listen to their peers, rather than their parents. Past that now, thank goodness.

    1. Thank goodness Mary he is the last of seven we have to go through the teen age years with. It seems like it is so hard until they reach about 25, the we are alright parents again. It's like a switch that just flips when them turn 16. Good thing he is the last, I am to old for this.

  4. Oh, Dede, I have 3 boys, and I know exactly what you're talking about. And as a parent you always keep an ear open to hear that car in the drive. They just don't get it. :) Love the way your blog looks! I need to re-do mine as soon as I figure out how, and find the time - lol! xox

    1. Pam this was just to "perky" for me as a dear friend pointed out to me. LOL I needed something more soothing. More tranquil.
