Bill Engvall
On Sunday, Rob and I had a great time in Lakeland. Yes, really, lol.
We went to an early dinner at Harry's and I got lucky with 2-for-1 Hurricanes, yum! There was a screaming child who we thought would never leave though - and apparently the manager thought so too, because she came to all the tables and apologized! Their bread is so yummy, I could have just eaten that and not had a meal.
After we ate, we walked around Lake Mirror Park for a bit. It was a gorgeous day out, so it was nice to be outside.
We then drove to the Lakeland Center to see Bill Engvall. OMG is he funny! I have the "Here's Your Sign" CD but all his material was new. I laughed so hard I thought I was going to barf! There were so many times when Rob and I nudged each other because we could relate to what Bill was saying. What a great show - we'd definitely go see him again! Of course I didn't bring the camera with the zoom - who knew I'd actually be able to take pics?
It's always nice to spend the day with Rob, although if he actually were to read my blog (that's another thing, I could totally say embarrassing things about my family on here and they'd never know lol!) he'd likely respond with an "ewwwww" and a big grin rather than agreeing with me lol :) That's ok, I know he loves me (usually). ;)

Historical Day
(Aren't you proud of me? I designed the above layout myself using Word - haven't mastered PE yet lol. I'm using it as my picture for today in my Project 365 album - more on that later).Today is a day to remember. Yes, Obama is half-black, and that's a first for the office of President. But more importantly, Obama is ready to make changes that this country needs. I know it won't happen overnight, although I sure wish it would. We haven't been affected by the economy like so many others, so we are very lucky. It scares me that so many large companies have gone under (Circuit City, Linens-N-Things, etc). I've noticed that the lunch places I frequent have punch cards where you get a free lunch after buying so many, in an effort to bring people in (no complaints about that lol).
I'll admit, I wasn't planning to watch any of the Inauguration ceremony. I wasn't interested in the last few either. But I happened to be at lunch while all the TVs had it on, and it gave me a chill to watch history in the making.
I'm looking forward to seeing what the next 4 years brings.

Just a FUN-FILLED Day
There was sarcasm in that title. Did you sense it? The day in question is yesterday, January 19.
To start off with, the husband didn't have to work because schools were closed for Martin Luther King Day. At least he did get up, but not until I was ready to leave.
Then, I missed open-faced turkey and mashed potatoes at the Ale House, my usual Monday lunch.
Why? Because I had to work through lunch since I had to leave at 2 for an enjoyable THYROID ULTRASOUND. Always fun to have goo put on your neck and a hard object pressed on it.
After that, I thought it might be a good idea to get my BLOOD TEST done to check my thyroid levels. At least I didn't have to wait long, and the Quest lab by me is one of the nice ones.
Then on to my doctor for my annual WELL-WOMAN EXAM. Oh what fun to have strange contraptions shoved where they don't belong. And those lovely gowns and paper skirts. Fashionable!
To make things more exciting, I am almost 36 - so the doctor decided to give me a prescription for a BASELINE MAMMOGRAM. Ugg.
I thought the torture was over, when my doctor inquired about the last time I had a TETANUS SHOT. Someone shoot me now. So I suffered through that. Not horrible, but my arm still aches over a day later.
After my delightful afternoon, Rob refused to take me to dinner! I deserved dinner out, not leftover spaghetti! Harrrrumph!
