Mexico or IKEA??









As I am sitting here writing this, I am suppose to be on a beach in Mexico.  Instead I am on my couch making a list for IKEA.

Our all inclusive trip was cancelled due to the Corona Virus (pretty ironic isn’t it since I would be drinking a CORONA).  I decided we still need a few days away but since we can’t seem to fly anywhere (or buy toilet paper 🧻) we are heading to Minneapolis/St Paul for 2 days.

Mind you, neither of us has been to IKEA so I am excited and Scott wants to know if he can bring a cooler of beer and try out bar sets while I am shopping.  Pretty sure they would frown on that.

Sooooo. Sitting here a few days after I wrote that and again our mini-vacation is cancelled.  It sure is an uncertain time for everyone and I don’t mind staying safe and making sure everyone is safe and healthy as well.  I just find it humorous that I have tried to go away for a weekend 3 times to shop at IKEA and still have not been there.  I might pee myself when I do get to go. (And that’ll be a whole other story I am sure.)

I broke down today and went in to get Botox.  😳😳😳. I have never done anything like this before so I did a bunch of research and asked the only 2 friends I know that have done it a BUNCH of questions and HERE WE GO!!!

After going into all the details and the thousands of dollars one could spend to look 12 again, we decided on trying small.  Once I started checking all the stuff you CAN do, I probably could have spent a small fortune but I stuck to my original plan.  AND IT WAS ON SALE!!!  Never knew they had sales on BOTOX.

So I am in the chair making a bunch of faces for her and she is stinking needles in my forehead and it really isn’t so bad.  I got up and looked at myself and I look exactly the same.  WHAT??????  Oh ya...  It takes 3 to 5 days to show results.  Well damn...

As I am getting ready to leave, she is giving me all my instructions and what could happen.  I actually bust out laughing when she says:  “Now no exercising for at least 4 hours.  Are you good with that?”  Bahahahaha...  I have succeeded in not exercising for 40 years.  Pretty sure 4 hours will be a piece of cake!!!!

Cheers to a smooth forehead!!!!!!!!!

Where the F^*@ did summer go??

  As I am writing this it is almost the end of August and we are taking our home on wheels camping.  This is our 3rd time out (can’t count the countless hours I sat in the driveway in it because I needed  a vacation.) Our first outing was to a country music fest in Karlstad MN.  Appropriately called Kickin Up Kountry.   We went with siblings and outlaws and had a blast.  Naturally we pull up and the camper RIGHT NEXT DOOR is a classmate of mine from high school and his wife.  What are the odds.   AND It was hot out so we all know I was a sweaty mess for 3 days.   You know it’s bad when I wear a cowboy hat AND a t-shirt at the same time.  With an umbrella and a fan.   So not my fashion statement but I plan on wearing it again next year!!!   Saw my first Baja races and more men in bib shorts and cowboy boots than I care to count.  Working on Scott’s wardrobe for next year.😄😀 Our second outing was a staycation.   We camped in our hometown park.  It was so fun.  We couldn’t go home no ma

  OMG.  I can't believe it's June already.  The older I get the faster time goes and the less I seem to do. Sleeping has become one of my favorite pastimes and some nights are better than others. The other morning I had my alarm set really early because I had a meeting and needed to be ON TIME!!  Hate when that happens but that's a whole other rant.  People that show up for appts anywhere from 15 to 45 minutes early….  Not going there. So, my alarm goes off and I don’t want to wake up Scott that early.  I usually turn it off right away, hop out of bed with a smile on my face singing a song but this day I couldn't do it.   My arm was completely numb.  So I flop over and try to grab my phone.  I yank the cord out of the wall and the phone falls under the bed.  I then roll on the floor (literally) to find the phone.  Meanwhile my right arm is somewhere else and I can't find it.   By this time my alarm is getting LOUDER AND LOUDER and I want to shut it off but I need my

Beach Whales and Adorable Dolphins

As I told you in March after my exciting travels to St. Louis, I again got to do some traveling in April.   Scott and I got the opportunity to go to Los Cabos and stay at the Hilton Golf and Beach Resort.  Not going to lie, it was a tough week.    I was nervous about going thinking Scott would get bored easily…..   I was totally wrong.  We were up everyday at 6:30 to get to go and save our chairs by the pool/hot tub/swim up bar.  Then off to breakfast and back to our chairs for my morning “juice”.  My favorite flavors were either strawberry or banana with a tinge of rum.    We met some amazing new friends and one of them showed Scott how to locate the whales that were migrating.  SOOOO, while I sat in my chair sipping my juice and reading, Scott became the “WHALE WHISPERER”.   Kids were all over that.  And adults too.  He would stand in the infinity pool and point to the water.  Not sure there were whales or not but he swears they were out there and his “followers” found them too.   My
