My girl just HAS to go skating every weekend. We normally go in the afternoons but she is wanting to try the evening skating event this evening. I hope it isn't as crowded as the Friday evening one. Went there and done it twice and didn't like it. It looks like a beautiful day today. Maybe I will do some shopping. I don't know who all knows this, but my dh is overseas right now, so I do a lot of shopping for him. I send him all kinds of stuff twice a week. He is gonna get fat!!! lol I tried getting something for him at Wally world yesterday and they didn't carry it. His best friend is going to have to order it for him. The gun stores don't even have it in stock. It is a 5. something bore snake to clean your gun quickly. He is at a nicer place this time around, more dangerous job though.... The other time it was a lot worse. After this stint he will have 20 years and can retire. He will be a 3 time veteran.  |

I don't know what I'll be doing this weekend. I might go to the YMCA or the movies. |

Well, I went ahead and let her skate for two hours at lunch and now we will go tonight for 3 hours. Want to come and keep me company??? I usually bring me some magazines to read.
The weather sure is beautiful today. I should have been outside and done yardwork today. I probably look crazy, but I have had a sweater on today. I am cold natured though. The skating rink they keep it colder for the ones that skate; which is understandable.
I don't know what we will do tomorrow.

He is still young too....37! She enjoys skating so much, she was mad at me today cause I wouldn't take her AGAIN!  It is good exercise. I guess that is why she stays so slim. I wish I could skate, but I don't want to make a fool out of myself and I am scared of falling.   |

Critter, you need to lace up a pair of skates and get out there. After you fall a couple of times, it will all come back to you and you'll be skating like you did as a youngster. :relief:

Hey Critter, I agree with Double L--put on a pair of skates and go have fun with your daughter.
Hats off to your dh and to you and your daughter.
Did you get to go shopping yesterday or today?

I went shopping both days...at Wal-Mart!  I have NEVER skated. Well, I take that back...I did when I was 17 and I couldn't stay up on the skates. You know how a lot of people learn from falling some? My girl didn't do that in the beginning. I guess she is a natural. Not to say that she DOESN'T fall. She fell once last night! |

Hey Critter, I agree with Double L You should always agree with DL.  Of course, I should. What was I thinking? Oh yeah, and how ironic, my 600th post was in response to a Double L post.  |

Skating time again!!!!! What is everyone else doing today? I need to pull some weeds growing along here and there. I am really irked my dh didn't show me how to use a weedeater.  I could go buzzing along with that. He was afraid I would hurt myself with one. It can't be all that bad! We will go out to eat after skating and then go shopping some. Tomorrow the new Wii game...Mario Kart will be released. I hope they have it in stock and not sold out when we go looking for it. I LOVE Mario Kart!!!!! |

I've been busy this morning doing some baking for work. I wanted to freeze some cookies, bar cookies, cake, etc., for customers and employees at work next month since it is our last month to be open for business. It is cold here this morning (35 degrees) so the heat from the oven feels good too!! We're going to do some shopping later today as dh needs some smaller clothes and I need to start looking for some clothes for work. We may be going to Topeka tomorrow to see our son that lives there. I'm hoping he'll want to eat at Texas Roadhouse or Longhorn Steakhouse--maybe I can bribe (I mean persuade) him with some peanut butter cookies!! Critter, you and your daughter have fun skating and in everything else you do this weekend. Can I send my shopping list to you just in case you run out of things to buy?  |

We are eating at Colton's today!!! Haven't been there in awhile. I wish I could find me some cute clothes. I have been looking for about a month now and I don't like this year's clothes. I see cute things in advertisements, but when I go in to these stores, I don't see these items.  |
