I Am a Slacker!!!

I am a slacker when it comes to this blog. By the time night time rolls around I am too pooped to pop.
I ahave good intentions but you know how that is.
We have been burning the candle at both ends here in the wonderful beautiful Villages. I sure can't remember what we have been doing but I know we have had a wonderful time.
We had a water leak and Bud worked really hard to find it because it was in the sprinkler system. But he made his three trips to Lowe's to buy the parts and we didn't have to call a plumber. I told him with all the money we saved I could buy two new chairs. We also had to get a new battery for the car.
The Blesings from Petersburg are here staying with friends of theirs from Pompano Beach and so we have been running as usual. Sunday night we went to Cody's Roadhouse, the guys played golf yesterday at Tarpon Boil, we went to Margueritaville last night to eat and see my favorite preacher man, Norman Lee. He was fabulous.
Today the guys played golf at Hawkes Bay and tonight we are going to Taverna Red to eat and see Dunning Shaw.
I am now Bud's official secretary. He is one busy person. He is playing golf this week, on Saturday we played El Santiago, Monday, Tarpon Boil, Tuesday, Hawkes Bay. Wednesday, Mira Mesa, Friday at Hilltop and I haven't found out where we are playing on Saturday. Add that to his fixing up projects, which he is in great demand for and I hardly see him.
We ordered our new carpeting and he almost has the cabinets in the bathroom done.
On Thanksgiving we went to the neighbors for a nice dinner and then we all went to Dominic's

Another Week Gone

Whoever said that retirement was boring should follow me around for awhile. OMG, it is always something.
This week I worked on Monday, so busy.
Bud golfed at El Santiage on Wednesday and at Silver Lake on Friday.
We have kept Lowe's afloat again by paying off what we owed them and getting ready to order new carpeting, hopefully on Tuesday.
Our bathroom and bedroom look marvelous.
The JUGS went to Katie Belle's on Wednesday night for "I Love This Bar" night. Anna had a little too much to drink and she sure made the evening. What a character.
The guys went to the Old Tyme War Movie show.
On Thursday we shuffleboarded and I played three games and won two. Bud won two and we took 15 out of 24 as a team.
Friday I worked. We finally hooked our WII up to the computer and now have Netflix. They sure have lots of movies to choose from. It was like the blind leading the blind but we did it.
Saturday we golfed with the neighborhood at Briarwood and we did fine for the first five holes and then we fell apart. Oh, well we can't win them all. We went to McCall's Tavern for lunch and then we just stayed home and I made a pumpkin cake. Boy, it was good..
Oh, George Bush was here in the Villages today. He golfed at Arnold Palmers and then had a book signing. George Micheal Montgomery was having a free concert and there were tons of people there. A good time was held by all.
Today I worked and it was super busy. Bud and some of our friends came in for an early breakfast and they they went to the golf cart parade to participate in the parade for the wounded soldiers and to set another parade record. We don't know how they did but the record was 3,240 and some say there were at least 4,800 golf carts. We'll probably find out tomorrow in the paper.

Too Tired to Blog

I have been burning the candle at both ends and I think it is about to catch up with me. I haven't had time to blog and so I am going to try and remember all the things I have been doing.
Don and Twyla were here for a few days. Us girls (JUGS) spent one evening at Marguertaville and saw Norman Lee. He was way beyond wonderful, we had a great time. Kathy B and her husband Bob visited from Toledo, had a nice dinner at TooJays and gave them a tour. They were impressed to say the least.
We had a neighbor dinner at Fuji Steak House, it was very good and all twenty four of them came to our house for dessert. Thanks to Dominic, who made the cakes.
Work has been so busy, the dreaded snowbirds are back in full force...
We went to one of favorite places, Catfish Johnny's on Tuesday. What a great little place, had a ball. Took Sandy and Ron from shuffleboard and they loved it.
Played shuffleboard and won a few and lost a few, Oh well.
Played golf several times and we now have the distinction of turning in the highest score ever turned in on our Saturday league. Six over..We have golfed at Walnut Creek, Mira Mesa, Chula Visa and one other one, I can't remember. Bud has golfed lots lately, Saddlebrook, Chula Visa, Mira Mesa, Silver Lake and will play Diablo on Wednesday.
He has been fixing Bill and Anna's bathroom and just got that done and then he fixed Carol's kitchen cupboards for her today. He is one busy man.
Anna had a garage sale on Friday and he went and helped her set up, fortunately I had to work.
On Friday ten of us went out for our 44th anniversary to the Fuji Steak House and had a nice dinner and then to see Secretariat. What a great picture. Definitely a must see.
Last night after golf I just crashed and I had a bad night with leg cramps. Today was the busiest day yet so I am just hanging out at home tonight.
Tomorrow is another day...
