~ Weekend's Over ~
... and what a fabulous weekend it's been. I got all my chores done, did some fooling around, and got out to enjoy the wonderful weather. Today the weather was a bit different then the past few days, maybe Barry visited? I'm not sure. It was hot when I woke up but the sky was dingy and gray. There wasn't a breeze to be found. I did my normal Sunday routine and the more the day went on the more my head hurt. A bit afternoon I got extremely hot, and went to wash my face and cool myself down. I came back out and sat down and my head pounded. My eyes got kind of blurry, or more like there was a film over them. I thought maybe I had gotten soap in them, but they didn't burn. I got a little nervous wondering what the hell was happening. Had I been sitting in front the computer all day I'd just think it was that, but I really wasn't.... for a change. I took a couple aspirin and went and laid down. I really didn't sleep but I wanted to close my eyes. Weird thing was I could still see the filmy design with my eyes closed. I laid there for a bit and then got up. My head still aching. About an hour or so later the sky opened up. The rains came. Big ass drops pounded the hard ground. We really did need the rain after the scorching sun had been beating down the last few days. I think the blades of grass let out a sigh and danced in the rain and slight breeze that was now blowing. The flowers lifted their petals to get a drink. Within several minutes my head cleared and my eyes were fine. I know the barometric pressure can play games, but never have I had it affect my eyes. It was the scariest thing. The rain has been off and on since, more a steady rain and no more downpours.
I decided then to take some of my pictures and make a little collage for the rainy day. The daisies and buttercups are along side my garage. The guy next store let a section of his yard go 'wild' and there is pretty much just wild flowers and weeds. From a distance the color is nice. I shot these pictures a few days ago. The park bench is located at the end of the driveway at the house across the street. It's a cute decoration, but the bench has definitely taken a beating in the elements. A nice touch when I added the rain. Then, of course, we have Bug. So many have asked why I call her 'bug'... my answer.. because she is as cute as one :) These pictures were taken the other night at Gage's soccer game. Even though there was a playground not to far away she was content to sit and watch her brother play. At one point I was even able to get her as she cheered him on. She is a card! How do you like the pose of her with the 'pop eye' sign? Telling me it's ok to take her picture now. It seems she has out grown the stage of not wanting her picture taken.
All else seems to be going good. My son only got a little burnt on the boat yesterday and enjoyed the day. He is looking forward to another outing and soon. Maybe next time they will plan it a bit better and he can rent a cabin near the slip that my nephew keeps it in. That would make for a nice little get away close to home. I didn't talk to my sister today, but if the Friday night bon fire was any sign she bounced back from a rough Tuesday cocktail real well. I do hope that was an exception and not the rule going forward. It made my heart ache to know she was so sick. I'm keeping the candle burning with hopes it will help bring continued good news. If you care to join me feel free. All the good thoughts and prayers are so appreciated.
Hmmmm... anyone care what the series is at for hockey? Too bad, telling you anyway. The Ducks lead 2-1. They play again tomorrow in Ottawa. The Ducks will be without one of their star players, Chris Pronger. He got suspended a game for a cheap hit. Yes, it was cheap, very cheap!!!! And not that it makes it right, but I've seen a few non calls on cheap shots. I've also seen a few marginal calls made. To say nothing about the Alfie's goal the other night. It was called no goal on the ice for having a kicking motion and going off his skate into the net. I thought for sure the call would be upheld. I've seen much less be called a no goal. Boy was I surprised to have it count. The Sen's are definitely getting the calls, but I still say Go DUCKS Go!
Well, Bill, lookie here, it's just after 11 and I'm just about ready to click save and get this entry in. Guess what else?! I'm going to bed. I am going to lay with my head in front the window, but the timer on my TV, watch some news and fall asleep with my night light (TV) on. What else is new, eh? Ok, going to bed before midnight is the only thing new. LOL
Hope everyone had a great weekend and I wish you a wonderful start to the week!
Hugs
