I got a new set of wheels!

That's right...we weren't in the market for new means of transportation,

but just happened to stumble across this beauty! As soon as I saw it, I knew I just had to have it!!!


I told Mr. Wonderful that with the price of gasoline this gem would be a perfect for me! Not to mention that I absolutely fell in love with the color!

It didn't take long for me to convince him that this is one for me! I promise I will take extra special care of my new baby! It needs some TLC...

My new set of wheels!

Another Birthday Come and Gone...

I had the pleasure of sharing my "special day" with a very, very good friend.



We chose to go to Johnny's Italian Steakhouse for lunch and enjoy not only the atmosphere, but the delicious food. Everything was perfect!

I ordered the smothered portabella mushroom sandwich, but couldn't even touch it after I gorged myself on the crisp shoestring zucchini fries, the shrimp bruschetta, calamari marinara, mozzarella marinara, and sausage bread appetizers. Our server was spectacular and she accommodated us for the two hours we sat there enjoying everything.



I arrived home to a special delivery waiting for me from Mr. Wonderful...A beautiful pink Azalea in full bloom. He is soooo sweet!

It was a wonderful time, and I thank my very sincere friend for sharing with me the celebration of my special day ...

Another birthday come and gone, but I have the beautiful memories to cherish forever~

Before and After

Woke up...got out of bed, dragged a comb across my head...


Okay, it was actually a brush...


I sat down, and did my normal morning routine...got a cup of coffee, read the newspaper, picked up a little around the house, and made the bed.

Yesterday the electricians were here to install the dedicated 20 amp line to the tanning room. I couldn't talk them into helping me put the canopy on the bed no matter how much I batted my long eyelashes... so I had to wait until Mr. Wonderful got home from work last night.


We had a meeting with two gentlemen here at the house last night and thank you R & A for helping Mr W lift that 150 pound top in your suit and ties!

Now I have to spend the day decorating the room so I have a tropical place to tan!


Here you go ~before and after

Ta Da!

It's always something!

I thought by this time yesterday I would be baking in the new tanning bed, but with my luck...it's always something!

The delivery was on time two hours late yesterday, but the good new is...a couple of green bills (okay it was a few dollars more) the delivery man helped get it some where closer to the basement than we could have ever done by ourselves. I could have probably lifted the 300 pound package IF I had been lifting weights for the past 50 years!

The informative people at the tanning bed place told me all you have to do is switch your outlet to accommodate the ground plug (no problem) and so we didn't have to make a trip to the hardware store they threw one in for a measly $5.00.

Mr. Wonderful has everything ready and set to go EXCEPT and I really mean a BIG except the outlet is 10 amps and this monstrosity of a human oven requires 20 amp.

Monday the electrician will be here to do the wiring...Grrrrr....it's always something!

It has been brought to my attention

Mr. Wonderful will be blogging soon! He has made the cyber-decision to start his own blog instead of being a guest blogger on mine.


Coming soon...The Truth Will Prevail! He will reveal all! Stay tuned for some really juicy stuff! The truth and nothing but the truth!

I should add...it will NOT be about Flamingo's! I guarantee!
