LOL Mixed fruit tastes similar to apple jelly (the only jelly I buy) but still there's just something about the mixed fruit on the little container that takes me back to childhood breakfasts after church with my dad's side of the family. Sometimes movies and thumb twiddling is in order. ;-)Anele @ Success Along the Weighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03986921867517926199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-68675803117499853242014-04-15T00:42:21.009-04:002014-04-15T00:42:21.009-04:00Wow!

I've never had mixed fruit jelly but if I ever find one I will enjoy it while thinking of you, for sure! I also enjoyed the hail storm that Dawn survived. Plus a whole lot of movie watching, and twiddling thumbs.Czesiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04659055822037057266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-68620695221565232652014-04-14T21:56:06.487-04:002014-04-14T21:56:06.487-04:00Mixed fruit jelly is so yummy and I hope the hubby...Mixed fruit jelly is so yummy and I hope the hubby was grateful because that was super sweet!! We consider anything within 6 hours eligible for a day trip depending on what we're going to see. I think the closest we've been to your neck of the woods is Highland Park as we were doing our John Hughes movie location tour. Nothing like driving by Ginny's church from Sixteen Candles or the "high school" (currently police station) from The Breakfast Club, etc.Anele @ Success Along the Weighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03986921867517926199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-61283323967307489792014-04-14T21:51:00.894-04:002014-04-14T21:51:00.894-04:00Productive is good.

I am jelly you went to Indy, my bro and his family live there and I don't see them often! I cleaned, shopped, laundry and watched it pour rain and hail all weekend. Also watched Wolf of Wallstreet, how terribly disappointing that one was! Glad you got out of Dodge. I am curious where you call homebase because Girl, I got "nose trouble" as the old gals at work say. Can you directionally give me a clue as you seem to hover around my area so you must be close.

I had a super meeting on Saturday morning and put together some Longaberger Baskets I'm giving away for a conference. Took care of the chores early so those were off my mind. We had two massive hail storms that looked like a snowstorm so we took pictures of that and sent them to mom. Today the snow is blowing sideways--all this after it hit almost 80 degrees on Saturday! dalbador1https://www.blogger.com/profile/09877799102438622117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-84815916311620365212014-04-14T17:51:00.288-04:002014-04-14T17:51:00.288-04:00Man I could spread fruit preserves on anything and...Man I could spread fruit preserves on anything and make it better.

Then Sunday was cold and dreary and the little guy wasn't feeling well (we're home sick from school today) and then it snowed. another layerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15756727485274694135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-26282875745693733142014-04-14T09:27:32.136-04:002014-04-14T09:27:32.136-04:00Be glad, I think the Mr and I are draggin' but...Be glad, I think the Mr and I are draggin' butt big time today! I've gotta say, I agree with Du. There needs to be a bit of code of conduct. Others are all trying to enjoy their time out too. ;-) <br /><br />You would love Carmel. Very quaint town, statues like that all over the town and lots of great shops and restaurants to explore. The kissing statue was my favorite. <br /><br />I think the couch we have now was with us through the heaviest years. I'm sinking in "my" spot and it was time. I'm done with couches that have cushions on the back. They're a pain in mah butt to keep fluffed and in place. I didn't watch Friends regularly so that doesn't sound familiar but I think that's what my couch has done. It's seen and felt a lot. I think it's ready to go to someone else now. I'll have to make a call to a local charity to donate them.Anele @ Success Along the Weighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03986921867517926199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-74425449384679727522014-04-14T09:21:36.580-04:002014-04-14T09:21:36.580-04:00We could've tried on old prom dresses and 70&#...We could've tried on old prom dresses and 70's flowered muu muu's! LOL If you ever road trip there, that whole area is really cool within a 5 block radius. We just didn't have time to explore it. They have a great path system both in the city and heading to the burbs. <br /><br />http://visitindy.com/indianapolis-canal-walk<br /><br />Anele @ Success Along the Weighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03986921867517926199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-66126499460591276032014-04-14T09:09:01.334-04:002014-04-14T09:09:01.334-04:00Obviously I wasn't nearly as busy as you, or d...Obviously I wasn't nearly as busy as you, or doing things that were so much fun, while tempting my wallet, but the weekend sure flew by anyhow. Du used to hate it when kids would hang over the booth behind us, so he made sure our children were never allowed to do that. However, when we go out to eat with the grandkids, he gets real frustrated when their parents (our sons) do not reprimand their kids for misbehaving in public, or at least not behaving to HIS standards.<br /><br />Love the public artwork you found. That picture that is captured in the sculpture of the soldier kissing the nurse has always been one of my favorites. I remember my mother's stories of downtown Lincoln, Nebraska, when the war ended in 1945, how everyone crowded into the streets in celebration, and I can imagine some indiscriminate, joyful kissing going on like that captured in the infamous picture.<br /><br />Love your new chair--we also could use some new chairs, Du's recliner is in bad shape. For once, it's not MY chair that broke first, which was the case for so many years before I lost weight. Of course the chairs are over 10 years old, so I was sitting in it for years before losing weight. I guess the chair forgave me, since I quit stressing it out so much in the last few years. I'm giving the chair human qualities, kind of like Joey's chair, Rosita, in Friends. Remember how it healed itself (or so Joey thought), maybe that's what happened with my chair?!dupsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18088114640385927198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-18803749463190871062014-04-14T09:00:24.008-04:002014-04-14T09:00:24.008-04:00I live about 2.5 hours from Indy.

Had I known you were going to be there, I would've gone to Broad Ripple, been totally geeked out to be in the presence of a such a great blog writer, and would've hung off of the back of your chair at Punch Burger due to all of the excitement. :) I'm glad you had such a nice road trip!

Definitely worth it being able to see the chair in person VS spending a ton of money on something that you can only see online, with no ability to return it. The food was awesome.
