Oops - I had my days mixed up!!!

I had a post ready to roll yesterday morning but silly me plugged in today's date instead of yesterday. Duh!!! So you need to read today's and Friday's to catch up. Sorry!

We had a fun day at the pool yesterday. My uncle came over, then we stopped home and grabbed some stuff and headed back to the pool for dinner and stayed for late nite swim. We didn't make it until 9 because once the sun was setting it was a little cool.

We have decided to rent a little uhaul trailer to take on vacation this year, instead of Bob towing his boat. I checked into and it is $15 a day, which isn't bad. This way I can now take 90% of our grocery and paper products with us. Plus some of our own veggies too. And Bob said we could haul our new grill since it would be easy in an enclosed trailer. I can be so smart sometimes. LOL

We didn't make it to ChickfilA yesterday. Bummer.

I just finished the latest Stephanie Plum book. It was good. No spoilers from me.

New Website Recommendation from Kim:

Free Patterns.com is an awesome site. I stumbled to it and found that I had been there before, have a log-in. I found some very cool scrunchies I can crochet and maybe able to have April learn too.
