MONDAY - HAPPY PRESIDENT'S DAY

Good Monday Mornin' Yall,

HAPPY PRESIDENT'S DAY!!!! It is currently 37 degrees with a windchill of 31 degrees. The winds are out of the West Northwest at 8mph. Yesterday it got up to 55 degrees and was partly cloudy. The rain had stopped by mid-morning and it was a windy day. Not too bad of a day except for the wind blowing. But by late afternoon, the winds started changing out of the North and it got colder. I do hope that everyone had a Blessed Sunday and ready to start a new day. It is suppose to be mostly cloudy here today and the high of only around 40 degrees. Yesterday I was burning up and was so tempted to turn my Air-Conditioner on, but I didn't. By late yesterday afternoon, I was cold again. LOL.

Since today is PRESIDENT'S DAY, I couldn't find a picture for the occasion, so that is why I chose the Betty Boop Star and it is Red, White, and Blue. I know most Banks and Post Offices will be closed around here today. Our School will not be out, but I think some are out tho. So, with that being said, try to take a moment out of your time and "THANK" GOD for our past, present, and future President's. And be sure to be praying for our upcoming election in November that GOD will provide us with a GOOD President to try and straighten this Country out. If you are off work for this Presiden't Day, I hope you enjoy it.

Yesterday, I didn't do much at all. I was so tired and sleepy from not sleeping well on Saturday night. My DH left for work and me and the girls just layed around and took it easy. Me and the girls just stayed in our jammies most of the day. We layed around and watched t.v. and I napped off and on all day. I did have to get out around 4:30p.m. and go to the Dollar General Store to get a few things we needed here at the house. But we came back home after that and we had Turkey Sandwiches for our supper last night with some chips and dip. I had got a box of Generic Ritz Crackers and a can of Cheese Spread at the Dollar Store. The girls were wanting some of that and we had that along with our sandwiches also. They even fixed me a couple and put a heart shape on the crackers and gave to me. That just touched my heart so much. Our oldest daughter is still getting better and I'm planning on sending her to School today. She still has a little cough, but I've been giving her some cough medicine and also some cough drops. I will send some cough drops with her to School today.

Did yall see about the big Beef re-call on the news last night? That is just so sickening to listen to and even watch. I tell ya, I don't know what is wrong with people these days. I was reading about it on our local t.v. station's website yesterday afternoon and they said alot of the meat goes to the School's Lunch Program. I pray that they won't be serving any hamburgers or anything with beef in it to all of the kids. Makes me not want to buy any more ground chuck anymore. There has just been so many re-calls on things lately that if things don't get any better, I think it would be better if we start doing like they did years ago and raise our own foods. I know times were hard back then, but people were alot more happier and content back then. People seemed to appreciate things more back then than they do today. Now, I'm not saying we don't appreciate things here, but there seemed to be more of appreciation back then. That's just my input on the subject.

I would like to ask everyone something. I am wanting to re-do my blog here. I have seen so many beautiful ones around. I am really liking the Vintage looking designs and even the Pink designs that I have seen. If you don't mind, could you either tell me in the comment section or email me where you get your designs. I can't afford to buy anything right now and I have checked out the free websites, but haven't came across anything vintage looking yet. So, if you know of a free website that has these things, I would appreciate you letting me know. I really wish that Blogger had more Templates to chose from as well.

Well, I guess that is about if for this Monday. I think I will go visit and see who is ready to have some coffee with me. Take care my friends and have a great day. May God Bless Each and Everyone of You.

LOVE & HUGS,
