She sells SeaShells

Attended a visitation for a friend's mother's passing. Beautiful church.
Lunch at a sushi place in Eastgate. Yo and I had appetizers, rolls, meals and sides and drinks for under 30$ together. We need to come here more often. I tried an avocado roll something that was really good.
Yo and I went by Best Buy to get printer ink and we got a talkin' to by the Best Buy guy who said we were having too much fun at the apple computer's photo booth. Of course he then showed us more funny things and we all three laughed. Then he told me about Hipstagram, which I had heard of but not used. So I downloaded that. Interesting. It let's you change lenses and cameras. Not sure about how to share, etc. 
The boys took my chandaliar down and put up a fish bait. whose truck is this anyway?
We went to go get new tires for the boat trailer for their next fishing trip.





We talked about not doing a garden this year and I agreed but reluctantly. Then the next morning I woke up to the tiller. We went to get plants just in time for feeding time for the barn animals. How about those bottles. The farmer is really a knowledgeable guy. He gave us lots of pointers. Such as
  • don't over water. give them a good drink once a week and then make the roots go look for water they'll get a good base
  • you don't need to mound melons and cukes. it just groups them
  • no need to use additional potting soil
  • buy local- he researches what plants are resistant to our area and only orders those
I told Hubs I wish I would have recorded him. He talked forever and I know I only caught some of it. 



Finally watering my own.

She collects sea shells by the sea shore.




Weezy with our new room mate. She was a good fit for our trip.

A Krispy Kreme was sooo close.

I am so looking forward to springtime but I love fall and winter clothing. Is there anything more comfortable than my gray thrifted hoody sweater? I think not. But I'm getting itchy to get into the garden. March has snuck up on me. I carried my bright red patent Tusk purse all February and wore my pink Odille tapestry coat but now it's March and what do I have that's green?
I bought Where Women Create by Jo Packham at JoAnn's today and it has a wonderful layout on Paula Best one of our favorite artist at Stampaway each year.
Tomorrow is March 1st so I'm renewing my resolve because that is what spring is all about right?
New eating plan: 64 oz. of water/ Breakfast=whole wheat toast with natural pb and jelly or egg salad, milk/ Lunch= salad or vegetable soup/ Dinner= meat, veggies, brown rice/ 2 snacks of fruit, nuts, cheese, tea, a Coke Zero with Vanilla.
New exercise plan:30 minutes on the treadmill at 4mph. 30 minutes of walking Marina in the evening. 15 minutes of Wii., 25 push ups, 50 crunches, 5 minutes working on 1 pull up.
And those nails... yikes!
Tomorrow's immediate plan is cleaning this house back up after a few weeks of neglect...
