Finally Friday!

I remember writing that when I was still teaching in emails I sent to my friend, Judy, on our daily postings to each other..... anyway...it's Friday again and the week has been zipping by!

We haven't had a real exciting week but we have LOVED the weather that has FINALLY arrive! It has been in the 80's and one day was 90! YAHOO!!!!!

We went to church last Sunday at the church in Mission.... an old, old church and I wrote you earlier about the Priest having his dogs come with him...... we got to church about 8:40 for the 9AM service and it was already PACKED!!! We stood at the back of the church the entire service. During the processional sure enough the Priest walked down the aisle and the dogs were behind him greeting everyone who reached down to pet them..... we know now we will have to leave earlier to get a seat!

We had a fish fry with our friends here in the park on Sunday afternoon...too much food and the fish, halibut, striper and salmon were delicious! But we had a great time!

Monday found us just hanging out here and I sewed most of the day Monday...... it was cloudy and kind of dreary but the sun came out late afternoon for a while!
Just as a teaser!

Tuesday, was our day for our final Newmar luncheon in the Valley..... we drove to that and stopped by Office Max to look for an office chair to use at our computer desk area or when I am sewing. The chair is great but larger than I thought for this small area we have....but we like it! The chiropractor we went to suggested it and I had been thinking about getting one but wasn't sure about how or what we would do with it when we travel...but we have found a solution I think...stay tuned!

Wednesday is "sew day" here in the park so I went to the hall and sewed while the other gals worked on some placemats Nancy was teaching...... I came home around 1 and spent the afternoon sitting outside some .....it was so nice! We went to BJ's Brewery for dinner....it is a really good restaurant here in the Valley..... I was so hungry for a "regular" hamburger! Everyone else had different meals....... it is just a nice restaurant for that...big selection!

Thursday we were going to Mexico and then decided to go to Brownsville to get some shrimp..... Dennie and Karen and us were going to go but they had an unexpected water problem and couldn't so Ron/Nancy/John/Patsy and us went. We drove to San Isabel and ate lunch at Pelcian Station on the gulf bay...it was sooo foggy you couldn't even see the bridge for Padre Island....the traffic was really picking up so I'm glad we didn't go across the bridge! We ate lunch and then drove about 15 miles to the Shrimp Outlet where we bought our shrimp...it is huge and we bought 10 lbs of fresh wild caught Gulf shrimp! YUMMY!!!!! We came home and vacuum packed one bag and ran out of bags so we will have to get more soon.
We had a "block party" across the street last night at 4:30..... several couples were there and it was nice.... we only had to walk across the street. It was a potluck so there was plenty to eat and quite a selection. I finally am able to put some faces with the ladies I met at sewing and have seen others..... we hadn't met to many of our neighbors down the block so it was nice to do that....it got cool around 6 so many didn't stick around so we came home around 6:30 or so..... time to watch American Idol and Survivor and then call it a day!

Today is a day to hang around here .... Bill has finished washing the rig and it's my turn to wash windows...... so I guess I had better get busy with that...also have some clothes that need to hang outside to dry.....

So that is about all for this week or this time!
Stay tuned!
Until next time!
