sunday we got up and started on the outside work, it took all day to paint this fence we are going to put it around the pool so the doggies can't get behind it, such a nice day we ended up outside all day but it was so nice, so we had hard lemonade and just enjoyed the day, i told ronnie he had to be my work horse that was my present for my bday and he was he worked so hard, thanks bubba!

ronnie and val kicking our butts!

eating tacos and hanging out, love this neighberhood you don't even have to leave to have a great time!

got up sat and got my toenails done not we were suppose to go to a party but ended up staying home, we headed to lowes for more pavers, and a small fence to keep the doggies from going around the pool, to safeway tacos tonight, we ended up inviting dave & val and cindy no martinis i did'nt plan for it maybe next time, something springy we played carnium love it ronnies acting is so funny and when we get lisa and phil to play his humimg is always the same you can't tell because it always sounds alike.

friday night was pizza night both of us was so tired, i got to hang out with my girlfriend lisa which i never see anymore because she is in school, i checked out the new goodwill in her neck of the woods, i found a bag of cute cloths for me for about 30.00 love it i am trying not to buy anything new for summer, lisa and i went to cpk yummy, i had their thai salad and lisa had the chinese i liked her's better, then we did a little shopping, ronnie and i ordered pizza and we watched AI tivo'ed i think is it adam the dark haired guy did such a great job! and the rest was just fluff, which i wished danny and megan would pick better songs because i really like them. then we rented the haunting of molly somthing it was stupid then we watched twlight i loved it can't wait till the next one, ronnie liked it to he keep asking me questions i told him the next book is in the computer room.

I decided i was going to pave part of the planter in front, but it is harder than what it looks like, once i am finished i want to put a table and 2 chairs so ronnie and i can sit out front with mason glasses of lemonade and yell at the kids, just kidding only the ones that cause trouble!

some of my cloths, all name brand, and some even had tags on it!

these pics were taken last thurs, i decided i was going to goodwill, and i found so much, all these shirts for ronnie and for me also, cute stuff all name brand , with the economy the way it is people are getting rid of cloths for tax deductions and they end up at the goodwill, and i benefit!
