miscellany monday

{one}

i am seriously ready for summer weather! bring on the 90s, please. after we gave in and turned the air conditioner on thursday, i was contemplating turning the heat back on last night. i know i live in missouri and all, but seriously?

i woke up at 4 a.m. today. with a headache. so i'm not in a pleasant mood.

speaking of early wake-ups, j's phone rang at 3:30 a.m. saturday. i was not pleased. then when we saw it was our neighbor, we immediately knew it probably had something to do with our horses. sure enough doc, our stud horse, had gotten out (J forgot to fully latch the gate) and was down there trying to prance for our neighbor's mare (of course!) luckily j was able to easily catch doc. unfortunately, it was 4 a.m. by the time all this was over and i was planning to get up at 5 for work, so i lost 1.5 hours of much-needed sleep.

j is on vacation friday-thursday, so I think i am going to take a couple days off too! we live in southeast missouri and are thinking about a little getaway. not memphis or st. louis though, we've been both of those places. right now, it's looking like branson or chicago. do y'all have any suggestions? flying is crazy expensive, so preferably a four to six hour drive one way ....

supper is in the crock pot and i am super excited. i've been craving ham and beans, so at least this weather is perfect for that meal. now all i have to do is make up some cornbread once i get home.

are any of y'all survivor fans? i LOVE that rob won. he played an awesome game --- and was lucky enough to be on a tribe where people trusted him and he had total loyalty. thank goodness the jury saw he was the one of the three who actually worked to make it to the end, and had the brains to award him the money.

HAVE A GOOD WEEK!
