Still No Heat . . .

After spending $707 yesterday for a new fan for the furnace in Sun City, we still do not have any heat. Put a call into the heating repair place last night and they are supposed to call us back first thing this morning. Thank goodness the temperatures outside have been above average and we can 'suffer' through the house getting down into the mid-60s at night.

On a lighter and albeit warmer note . . . Mark and I are just about done cleaning out the garage. You would not believe all the trips we took to the dump! Each time the PT Cruiser has been stuffed to the ceiling with bags and bags of stuff and other goodies. There is a spot at the dump where you can place items that you want to give away instead of throw away and so far everything we have given away has been taken. How neat is that?! Our own personal way of keeping the Earth a tad bit 'greener' . . .

Heading into Savannah tonight to have New Year's Eve dinner at Paula Deen's The Lady and Sons. Really looking forward to this . . . . I've heard it is amazing food!

Have a safe and happy New Year's Eve everyone . . . .

Okay, So It Has Been Over 2 Months . . .

since I blogged last. Sorry about that. Things have been really weird around Limaland and I have not been in the mood to do much at all. Hopefully my attitude/outlook will improve with the coming year.

Thought I would get back in the habit of doing a Ten on Tuesday feature again, so here goes this week's list. And the topic is . . . 10 Best Moments of 2008
  1. Voting for and actually having my candidate elected President
  2. The look on Mark's face when he showed up at his 60th surprise birthday party
  3. Having Aiden sign that he wanted Mark to turn on the CD player and play music so he could 'dance'
  4. Even though the circumstances where sad, driving with Kate to South Carolina/Florida to retrieve some of June's belongings
  5. Actually witnessing the oil seep out of the USS Arizona at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii
  6. Meeting Bob and Sheri
  7. Watching Aiden grow before our very eyes and turn from a baby into a toddler
  8. Having Fred mix Sex on the Beaches while in Hawaii
  9. Shaking hands with Lori as we formed our new partnership
  10. Having June fly in for Mark's birthday and not realizing that within a month she would no longer be with us

So there you have it. Have a great day everyone . . .
