Father's Day
This past weekend, was of course, Father's Day. Sarah, Ben and Jess were all able to come out for dinner, which was nice. They were all pretty weary however, as Ben and Jess had been out partying with friends Friday night, celebrating Jess's 20th birthday, and then went out to join Sarah and Jay's weekend stag/stagette at the lake! I think they were all partied out! Sarah is very good at coming up with really great, thoughtful gifts. This years she bought her and her Dad concert tickets to go see the Beatles impersonator group. (I forget their name at this moment) Hubby was thrilled!!
No Way!
I own 3 fossil watches. I love them, and they've been great! I have 3, because of course one needs different colours! The one I tend to wear the most often, is my black one. Yesterday morning, I put it on as usual, and all was well. I was doing bus supervision, glanced at my watch to see if it was time to open the doors, and my watch had stopped! It's not that old, so I'm thinking that it has to just be a battery that's died! At lest, I'm hoping that's all it is!
Retirement Thoughts
Hubby and I are very close to turning 50 *gag* and hopefully by then, I'll be able to say "fit and fifty" instead of "fat and fifty"! Besides moaning about our middle-aged bodies, we also have been trying to come with a plan as to where we want to retire. We're fairly certain we don't want to retire in our current home, as it's too big, and there's too many stairs for my decrepit old knees. We wildly fluctuate between thinking of retiring to a condo in the big city, or a smaller home in the country, a nc waterfront property, or a small town closer to where Sarah and Jay will be permanently living. I guess we still have a few years to decide, but not so many to get fit!!

Home Improvement
I was watching a home improvement show, as I often do. They had such a neat idea for redecorating a living room. The whole room was designed around the most gorgeous vintage fabrics. They used the fabric for some throw pillows, and for the drapes, and then chose other colors and fabrics as accents, and the whole effect was gorgeous!
