there's only TWO things.............


that I don't like about the ocean........the wind and the salty water on my hands............
Am I going to let that stop me from enjoying everything else? The sand, the sun, the fresh air, the birds, the sounds, going to Buc-ees on the way out or coming home, time with my girls, taking a walk, warm sea water on my ankles, the smell of sun-tan lotion, bottled water, pictures just waiting to be taken? We've lived here for a LONG time and I have been to the 'beach' once. We've driven down there and taken people from Kansas to see the water, but other than that, we haven't enjoyed what is really close to us........it takes less than 10 minutes to get to the water from our house if we don't stop at Buc-ees. It's a good place for us girls to have fun and I hope to start taking advantage.

Well, USE SUN SCREEN OR COVER UP YOUR BODY WITH CLOTHES.......your shoulders, your nose, your neck, the tops of your feet.......the tops of your ears.

Oh, I love everything about the beach. I like the way the salty air makes my skin feel. The smell of the ocean. The breeze that constantly blows from the water. Ahhhhh, so nice!

I think it is a sin to live that close to the beach and to not go.
You should be ashamed!

I hear that baby powder is effective at removing sand from skin.
Hope that helps in the future.
I'm sure you're one that loves the smell of baby powder. You seem like you would. :)

this and that

So, I get up this morning, and the rag-rug fairy tied all my rag-rug pieces together and had them wound in a nice ball.  I think I will leave more out tonight and see if it can happen again. OK.  I like Ross now.  These shoes were $1.49.  Purple velvet DUCK SHOES.  IN MY SIZE.  My plans are to go into that store every time I get groceries from now on.  Can't beat $1.49 for some of the neatest shoes in the world. I have seen this in a couple of places on blogs and the internet in general.  I was fully planning on ordering one....but our Kroger store had them for $12 something.  We've made 6 or 7 cups of coffee with this in our K-pot....and I am tickled to have it. I can now buy fun kinds of ground coffee.....not to say that Wal-Mart store brand decaff is a fun brand, but it's what I always used to drink.  And I lived. These are useful, not beautiful.  I need useful when I garden.  I bought some very low cost sni...
