Jay had a 3 day weekend, and he spent it taking care of me....The plan had been to go camping....but I ended up not feeling well, so he pretty much spent his time off taking care of me...He is just wonderful...I feel so lucky to have him in my life....

Last night we made a late night run for a snack...one of his favorites is curly fries....
me I like ice cream...so it was a milk shake for me....so nice to be with my favorite guy...
Today he helped me change the coolant in my motorcycle...took us about an hour. Then we just puttered around the house doing things...nothing special...just spending time together....

a few weeks ago...I had mentioned about someone raining on my parade..well I let that happen again....I really need to learn to let go....and not take it personally, when others are rude, mean, sarcastic, self centered etc.....I am a born to worry....
Treat others only as you would want to be treated in the same situation. (golden rule).

Finally if you have not already heard....

WE ARE GETTING MARRIED NEXT MONTH!!!!!

we have been together for approx 5 years....this is a very good thing....

if you don't think so ....well....suck eggs!!!!!

catch me on face book or ....until then bye....

NO BATS PLEASE!!

If you have not heard of my brush of fear with the "BAT" ...(and Jay staying in the bedroom until I caught the little bugger) I know Jay says it took him that long to get dressed...
as it goes, I was on the couch watching TV, when I heard a noise...at first I thought someone was trying to break in....so I got up and turned on the light....as I did, I saw a "BAT" come out of the fireplace....now it is dive bombing me...I run up stairs to wake Jay....he tell me to close all the upstairs doors, so it can't get in the bedroom....so as I am doing this...here comes the BAT....I am screaming for Jay to come help me....but he is still in the bedroom. ..(says he was getting dressed)...I continue with the screaming...and the BAT keeps flying around me....this seems like it goes on for hours....but maybe 5 to 10 minutes...finally I get a blanket to throw over the BAT...several throws later...I get the BAT in the blanket and then Jay comes out of the bedroom....I roll up the blanket ....take it out side and throw it so the BAT will fly away.....Jay does then go up on the roof at about midnight to cover the chimney.....I did not get much sleep....was worried it would happen again....so to bed early tonight...and NO BATS PLEASE!

Since the night of the Bat....Jay has made a cover for the chimneys, and installed it. We can still use both fireplaces...

I am still unemployed, still applying for anything, and everything (well almost everything).

We are planning on vacation ...leaving Sept 17th about 12ish.....taking the bikes and trailer heading down the coast into California...I love the coast and have not seen central and southern California coast...so the plan is to camp and travel the coast...stop and see/do/eat...

This weekend is to darn hot!!!! we are out and about in the mornings...then hibernate in the afternoons... Last eve we did go out for a short ride just to get some fresh air, as we also did this morning.....

There is more news....but that can wait until later....
catch me on facebook or .....bye for now...

My sister Barbara had a Bday yesterday...was not able to reach her, so I called left a Bday message (I sang Happy Birthday to her) for her....Had hoped to take her out....but have not heard from her...

With Jay and I both working on the 1986 Goldwing, it is up and running...I actually rode it for the first time on Saturday...put about 100 miles on it...not bad for the first time...so many buttons...to do so many things...
The heel toe shifter is the hardest thing for me...but I will try riding it again on Wednesday this week for a" Senior Make A Wish event"...apparently an elderly lady living in a assisted living facility wanted to ride in a motorcycle sidecar, that has been set up for her...and the Goldwing groups in the area, are going to show support for her....could be fun.... love those seniors....

The interview I did last week on Thursday...I think went fairly well....Will find out this week (early to mid week) if I am their New Administrator........
Wish me luck...pray.....nice thoughts....it all helps....

off now....

until next time...be safe...and smile alot...
