Last Weekend of April Recap
It's the start of another week. How did that happen? I have been battling with Walmart for two weeks trying to get these ultra cheap pots I need for the clematis and I'll be danged if they don't sell out in minutes before they can even get to my order. I can't go paying top dollar for these things and I have an "oops" coupon for them coming to a close that I need to use. If not, I'll have to poke around the two other stores we have freebies for but I don't think they're as cheap so I can't get as many. Apparently ALL of the gardeners are chompin' at the bit to get stuff planted this year. May I please get my 4 pots and y'all can have the rest? 😝 We have blown through season after season of Alone for like a week and a half. I know we're late to the party but has anyone else watched that? I have to say my brain feels like I could do it to some degree. The things I say they should be doing or thinking about in the beginning...

It was nice looking through old cards with you. It's a good reminder of all the good friends and family you have. The only thing is that we'll really need to start writing the dates on the backs of cards that we keep so we'll know which event they were for in the future.
ReplyDeleteWe do need to write dates on the cards especially when we refer to something going on currently and have no freaking clue what we're referring to 5 years later.
DeleteHaha Blazing Saddles. I think my mom felt bad enjoying it with me. Well, maybe not so much enjoying it with me but wasn't sure if she should be laughing at the dirty jokes and then realizing her daughter understood where to laugh. Isn't that just it though; that we could laugh at our dumb selfs, together?!
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome! Another Mel Brooks classic!
DeleteI love old cards and try to remember to date them, even the ones I send out to others. Right now I have four cards on display, long past the current month or so that I usually leave out cards I get. One is a really sweet Christmas card from my youngest son (he was planning to move out and I think realizing how much he was going to miss us), one from old friends who are also fighting cancer, and it is especially meaningful as it talks about how old friendships are something to be treasured, a lovely birthday card from my husband (my BD is 1/1), and a Valentine's card I got for hubs. Eventually they will all go in my "treasure chest," but for now I can't bring myself to put them away.
ReplyDeleteMovies my parents and I bonded over? Hmmm, old westerns with my Dad probably, but with my Mom it was, Gone With the Wind and South Pacific.
Good, then I don't feel so bad about just now putting away my V-day cards. ;-) We were going through some cards that cracked us up that our friends gave us, one written from their now deceased pup's perspective. I'm glad I kept them.
DeleteThose are good movies to bond over!
Where does one get balsamic cheddar?

DeleteMom and I have always bonded Disney cartoon movies. We both have a thing for mice and we've always gotten a kick out of the mice from Cinderella. And Aladdin is one of her favorites because of Robin Williams.
ReplyDeleteI was just looking at my copy of Cinderella the other day and thinking "did I ever watch this??" I need to rectify that! Anything with Robin Williams is awesome! (Would you believe we haven't seen Aladdin? *ducking*)
DeleteI love Spaceballs. Always one of my favorites. When I was a kid my folks and I watched Blazing Saddles. The first time I was too young to get most of it, but as an adult it is still one of my favorites.
