Good morning everyone here on myLot. I hope that you had a good weekend and that your week has started out good. I was MIA most of the weekend but I had myself some fun. I helped a my friend, Jessica with her yard sale on Friday then we went out and had some fried pickles. I had never ate them before cause I am not really crazy about them. I did like the fried pickles though. My friend ended up staying here Friday night and we had a lot of fun catching up on things and listening to music. Saturday morning my neighbor, David stopped and asked if I would like to go to breakfast. He even invited Jessica which I thought was very nice. We went to the 357 which is only a block away and we had a great time visiting while eating a wonderful breakfast. The rest of Saturday was spent with my friend and neighbor. We went for a short ride and stopped by the river just to enjoy the beauty around us. Sunday came and Jessica and I spent the day doing crafts and things. We got a lot done and it was another wonderful day. I was ready to some time to myself last night and did some writing, working on crafts some more and straightening up my apartment. How was your weekend?

I'm glad to hear that you had a good weekend. My eldest had a ped day on Friday and we kept my two youngest home as well. It was nice having an extra day off from lunches, drop offs and pick ups.

We all need a day off like that. I bet everyone was happy about being home an extra day.

They are dill pickles dipped in a batter and deep fried. They aren't something I would eat all the time but every once in awhile would be ok.

Sounds like you had a wonderful food and fun weekend! I've never had fried pickles. We had a mellow weekend . . . the kids got to go to a birthday party on Saturday. And yesterday we went to my mother in law's so Hubby can work on her house a bit - then we went out for dinner.

I'm back again. I am still dealing with problems from the accident. Other than that I am doing good. I am keeping pretty busy watching my granddaughter and keeping enough plants ready to sell each week. I have sold quite a few lately. Now I have vegetable plants and outside flower plants sprouting.

You did have a fun weekend. I'm very happy for you. My weekend was hot! I spent a few hours at the bay, got burned, tanned, and enjoyed just being outside. Sunday I watched the football game, a nail biter but we won. YEA! My new suit came in the mail on Saturday. I was afraid it was too small when I took it out of the package, but hurrah it fits! It's a bit tight, but at least I was able to get it on and I was in the pool yesterday morning and today. I also worked on my new book and made some good headway with it.

You have been pretty busy yourself. I am behind again but will get caught up when I can. You have many things to be happy for. Your new suit fits, you are spending time outside and you got a lot done on your book. Way to go!

David is a real nice guy. He is a year older than my youngest son but a good neighbor. I don't really remember what I wrote about Sunday. That was a week ago. I'm a little slow this week.

It was a lot of fun and something that I don't have enough of. They are dill pickles dipped in a batter then deep fried. I might try to make some myself.
