So where ya been...

Well if you've been wondering where I have been. Check out the link on this blog page to Youth Tour Louisiana. It's been time consuming, but always a rewarding trip. It's hotter than hell here since I returned home. The grass is starting to die where the pipelines are buried under ground. I water my garden, but it seems like it's never enough.
Celebrating LSU's national championship has been a great highlight this past week. It was time. I'm very happy for the team, and think that it is great they can bring a championship back to their new stadium.
So with all that...baseball is over, too hot to enjoy the outdoors, no vacation plans for the summer (I've really got the fever for the beach)....I'm looking forward to football season! So that's my exciting life in a nut shell.

Where can I find the time...

Maybe if I stayed inside to do laundry, pay bills and take care of household chores I wouldn't feel so far behind on my work. Being the Martha Stewart wanna be that I am I feel like I need to find balance between inside chores and yard work. I have to keep reminding myself that everything is perfect for her because she has paid staff. My one woman operation is not capable.
Lately, it has been no fun staying inside. I want to be outside working in my garden. It has been amazing to see the progress over the last month with my plants. Plus the weather has been beautiful. Maybe this weekend I will get some inside work done, since they are predicting rain all weekend.
Hope everyone has a safe and happy Memorial Day Weekend!

My Dirty Little Secret

I love the Real House Wives Series on Bravo. When I was home for surgery, I caught up on all the series. Now I'm just hooked. It's like a train wreck...you tell yourself you shouldn't watch but you can't look away. New York's reunion is tonight and New Jersey begins...I love it! lol

The Annual Dirty in the Ditch

To great disappointment, there will be no Dirty in the Ditch party for this year's fair. The fair will be this coming weekend, but we have a jam packed weekend. Saturday we have to go to Mandeville for a wedding and then on Sunday--it is baby shower day. Nicole, you picked the right time to come in for Dirty in the Ditch. Just too bad we won't be home on Saturday. I hope people can find their way to the fair if we are not sitting outside. lol

The New Box

Today was the first time I went to a game in the New Alex Box. It is a beautiful place. The game was very good even though the Tigers lost. I was impressed that they held Tenn. to a score of 7-5 since LSU made 5 errors. Even though the place is beautiful, new and exciting, I can't help but remember how great the Old Alex Box was and all the wonderful memories I have from there.

Wind

I don't know if I have just become more aware of wind recently or if things are changing? But I don't remember the wind being this bad. Since I have moved back to Jarreau, there has been some serious winds that blow through here. I lived next door all my life and I don't remember the winds being this bad. Everytime we wanted to fly kites there was never any wind. Now I spend more time picking up plants, lawn furniture and damage from these horrible winds.

Happy Easter!

Just wishing everyone a beautiful and happy Easter!
