Ok, no matter how drunk I may get, I WILL NOT let anyone talk me into this.

Thankful
This past year has been a wild ride for me. Some ups but alot of downs. Even though the downs out numbered the ups this year, I have alot to be thankful for.
I'm thankful for my health. I'm in relatively good health. I try not to take my health for granted and do the things I'm supposed to. Exercise, eat sorta healthy, don't smoke. All the things the doctors tell you to do. I know that by doing these things my body will be stronger and hopefully last a long time.
I'm thankful for a good job. This job, while some days is putting up with people's BS, pays the bills, allows me to have a nice home I can call my own, a decent vehicle to drive and the random vacation and fun toys. I know many people who are either out of a job or in a job that they may not like but need it to pay the bills.
I'm thankful for my dogs. While they can be a handful and at times a bit out of control (ok, really that is only Boomer). They are the best listeners. They are also good foot warmers on a cold night.
I'm thankful for my family. Most of them anyways. They have offered me their love and support across the miles. For this I am grateful. I miss the ones who left this world this year alot. I hope they are in a better place.
I'm thankful for my friends. Without them, this past year would have been unbearable. They have been there through the good, the bad and the ugly this past year. They gave me the strength to move forward with my life when I wasn't sure I could. The fun times of camping this year. Giggling like school girls trying to stay up all night. Waiting for the bats to come home. A big hug when I needed it the most. I treasure each of you.
While life may hand you lemons, be thankful for those lemons. You can always make lemonade.
Take the time out today to remember what you are thankful for. I know I will.

I Hope So
I know Breast Cancer Awareness month is over but it is always a good time to think of the girls.
I thought that this picture said it perfectly.

Is It Just Me??
I just don't get certain people.... Rachel Ray (her voice is soooo irritating), Nickelback (crappy over-played music that sounds like Creed (who I hate even more)) and Oprah.
There has been a big hub-bub-baloo about her ending her show next year. Why are people so freaked out about it?? Other than the books she suggests for her book club, I could care less. I have never gotten into watching her show. I could not even tell you what time or station it is on.
She makes people famous. Like Dr. Phil. Who up until a few years ago I had no clue who he was. Now the only reason I know who he is, is that I have a cousin who looks like him, but skinnier.
She has a school someplace in Africa that had some problems last year. I don't recall what the issue was but I remember seeing it on the news.
She is still dating that guy, Stegman (I think that is his name) or is it her best friend she is 'dating'.
Who knows?? Better yet, who cares??

A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words
My friend Monte was recently in Key West and sent me a few pictures.
I think I found a Christmas gift for a friend or two. This could be a big hit at camping.

Happy Camper
With winter fast approaching, I needed to think happy thoughts and escape from the winter doldrums. So what do I do??
I book the first camping trip for next season. Ok, technically it is not the first trip we will be taking but it is the first booked. Now I only have to wait a little over 10 months to go on this trip.
We are heading out to Yellowstone Lake State Park in southwestern WI. We will be there for the week after Labor Day. We were there this year during that time and it was great. We had the place to ourselves. Next year I hope to get in some fishing as I never got that far last trip.
Here are a few pictures of the lake. It was really peaceful out there.
Here is StB with his fish. He did release it back. Maybe next year we can catch enough to actually eat as a meal.
As the fall turns into winter, I will look back at these pictures fondly and count the days until our next trip.

This is a test from my BlackBerry
Let's see what this looks like.
Will it keep the formatting?
