Horse lovers and the dating scene

Just when you think you’ve heard of everything, you hear of a dating website for horse lovers!  My cousin Stacy tells me that she has found out about a dating club for horse lovers and she has taken advantage of their offer of FREE sign-up to see if she might be able to meet “Mr. Right.”  My hubby butted in with his “two cents” and said he thought she was more likely to meet “Mr. Ed!”  (Smart aleck!)

When we finished laughing, Stacy told me that she heard about the website from a friend of hers and she decided to check it out.  Stacy claims that it is a social networking group for horse lovers that want to meet other horse lovers, and it doesn’t have to just be people looking for romance, it could also be for people who just want to make new friends who share their love of horses. Besides, having an equestrian cupid might not be so awful!

Stacy has always loved horses and rides whenever she gets the chance.  She’s been talking about buying her own horse someday and has started to look around to see where she could board it when she gets one.  She’d love to find someone to go riding with!

Getting ready for the 4th of July at camp

We’ve been busy getting ready to spend a few weeks at camp.  We’re planning to go out there this weekend and stay until mid-July.  We LOVE spending the 4th of July weekend there!  That is the absolutely best weekend of the year as far as lack of bugs, and nice warm weather.  And of course, all of the neighbors spend a lot of their evenings setting off fireworks to celebrate their vacations!  It’s a great lazy time, with nothing to do but relax and enjoy the simple things in life, and go for an occasional boat ride.

Email from my Australian cousin

I just received an email from a cousin that lives in a very rural area of Australia.  I was so surprised to get an email from her!  The last I’d heard from her was by US Mail, and she complained that she lived in such a rural area that she could not get Internet Access!  That news alone was a big shock to me because I’ve had Internet access for such a long time; it seemed to me that she would have had Internet access for a while now too!

I love going to fairs!

web-t-shirt-outdoor-paints-9-2007This past weekend we went to a fair. As part of the fair, they had vendors selling their wares. That’s my favorite part of going to a fair; going to all of the vendors booths and seeing what kinds of cool things they are selling.

I especially like the handmade articles of clothing, the leather belts and purses and wallets and such. I also really like hand made jewelry, and decorated articles of clothing.

I went to one booth where a lady was selling things that she had painted by hand. I fell in love with a hand-painted T-shirt that she was selling, so I bought it. The hummingbird is glittery, which I think is really cool!

I’m including a picture of it to show to you. I hope you like it too! I really love it! She only had the one in my size; if she had a second one I would have bought it too, so that when this one wore out I would have another one to wear!

Mother’s Day

Yesterday was Mother’s Day.  It was such a nice day; my hubby made sure that I didn’t have to lift a finger doing anything other than entertain the baby from time to time.  He even did diaper duty!  I got to putter around in my flower garden (which is something I love to do!) planting the new pansies that he bought me as a Mother’s Day gift.  He also bought me some new Daylilies which are supposed to rebloom, and I got to plant them, too!  He cooked a nice crock-pot chicken for supper, and we had home made bread.  We had his mother join us for dinner, which was very nice too.  Yes, it was a good day.
