You know that life's a contradiction..you can't escape the fact..you gotta take a little bit of this and a little bit of that!

I am almost convinced I should get off facebook. Reason being, it's making me lazy as far as keeping up with my blog. I am not happy with myself as the blog is much more personal and a better way to document my life.

Salt is still back in NY working but I rode to Florida with my cousin Hazel. We stopped in Elmira at her brother's hot dog stand. This Bob McConnell, Hazel's youngest sibling. Thought you would like that Bob...LOL

I have been busy since we got back. One of Hazel's friends got us tickets to see a Gators' / Rams' game.




Attended our first party at the club....It was a "Dog Days of Summer" party...weird dress required.

I finally convinced Hazel she was TOO young to be gray and offered to color her hair for her. Of course you all know it saved her about $40. Is she grateful...NO, she complains because I didn't have a "clip" for her towel like they do in the "REAL" salons. I took care of that with one of my bag clips....after adding an adjective!!!

And here she is a new woman!!

Terry and Sue have had me over to dinner a couple of times since my return. I am going to owe them big time when Salt gets back. Terry brought me a big bag of apples from PA when they drove up to take his mom back. I made 4 big apple pies and put them in the freezer until Salt gets here. Terry is still pouting cuz he can't have any until then...


One thing I didn't wait to do when Salt got here was go get a Spinach Calzone from Stavros. I think this just may be my favorite meal in Florida!!



Salt and I celebrated our 22nd anniversary on August 19. Since he wasn't in town, Hazel took me to the Red Lobster. These two waitresses were SO funny. They said they could not believe we were celebrating an anniversary since both of seemed way too happy to be married. When we told them we were cousins they asked if they could PLEASE join our family. Great fun!

Here is Emma on the first day of middle school. She is turning into a delightful young lady!



Janna has started college at BCC (full scholarship) and also made the Volleyball team. She is an official "Hornet" and looking forward to a winning season. They are off to a good start, winning their first game!

Janna...first row, far right.
