Of a Tuesday......currently we are probably going to get a bit of a thunderstorm.  I can hear it mumbling and grumbling.  I hope  it's a good one. I could go for a good thundersmacker.
Got the lawns all mowed and weed wacked and cleaned up.  Then I looked at my car. Then I cleaned that inside and out. Sure does look pretty.  Showroom pretty. Uh huh. Then I looked at diva Princess Lira.  Yep, she got her pretty on.  Sprayer on the faucet, she came right over the edge of the tube.  Blew her dry and combed her out.  She loves it.
Now I'm looking at the house... get to do that next.   
Hope you all had a nice weekend.... today is back to it.

" Grades don't define intelligence, age doesn't define maturity."

Double face plant for me..... :blink:

:lol:  You should meet my brother in law.  He is a genius by test scores and the same age as me.   But he is dumber then a box or rock in everyday thing.

The river has yet to go down enough for us to see if the 40 to 60 ft trees complete with root system moved.  If not, and we can't get them pulled out, no dock or boat this year for us.  It's ok, just one of those things ya deal with on the river. 
Friday was nice.  Rolled in bout 6 pm.  Got all set and settled.Friends started coming in, we just hung out under the cabin.   Then Himself and I went to dinner and came back to an evening boat ride.  The same friends had just left our place, noticed we came back and promptly came back.  Stars were like diamonds in the sky.  I always watch the sky, you never know what you will see. Perfect ending to a week.
Yesterday was bottle crafting day.  Mardi Gras party next weekend.  So my friend and I are refurbish wine bottles for table centerpieces on the tables.  Last weekend spray paint, this weekend all decorated with beads, sparkly thing and the mindset to use them for the Christmas in July party.  Perfect project for a day of off n on gully washers.  Lira played with her new friend Brutus the 6 month old Shepard.  Another perfect day, crafting, lunching, laughing, giggling, even Himself was giggling with and at us lol.
After dinner, I learned a new drink.  It's called a Moscow Mule.  Now I haven't had a serious drink in many many months, but oh mylanta those bad boys are good!   The friends gathered and we hung out, music going and cutting up.
Today,  quick shower, a Lira walk, then my ladies are coming and we are headed to the auction house. A treasure trove of anything you can think of.  I missed a true Tiffany lamp for 75$ by 10 paces.  This day they put out all from the many estate sales, priced to sell up to half off. 
I do hope you had a lovely weekend and a good week.
Off n out!

Oh God, a local bar named the Crows Nest specialized in those. Had a couple and I woke up at home.
Have no clue how I got there, though I suspect friends, because I didn't drive...
