Another week in the books!

We did a little local shopping for Bill for "wedding attire", but didn't have any luck. One big drawback to where we live. We have a mens store, but the prices are too high. Our Penneys store carries only casual clothes, unless you want khaki, and khaki, and khaki. He already has enough khaki, we were looking for grey dress pants! 

We've both been working on colds this week, Bill more than me, and he felt really lousy the first part of the week. Mine is just a stuffier than usual nose and a sore ear, which has since calmed down. Bill's cough also has gotten better.

I dropped a full can of bug spray on my foot Wednesday night. Oh my the pain! It hurt for even the sheet to touch it for quite a while. I was surprised the next morning that there is just one little mark at the base of a toe, all the toes work, there is no major bruising or swelling. My first thought was that I had broken something and now I would have to find different shoes to wear to the wedding! Of course if I don't get a pedicure soon, I'll need to where knee-high boots!

Brianna got her driver's license this week. She still has to drive with a parent for 6 months, even though she is already 17. But, the rules are the rules. She's not very happy about it and neither is her mother since she still has to chauffer her around!

We went to Ryan's yesterday to help him get a new tire for his truck. We met him at the repair center and they were very slow. We visited with him for almost 2 hours and sat out a major storm and then headed to Jonesoro for dinner. He lives in between Blytheville and Jonesboro, just a bit to the north. We finally used the gift card to Red Lobster that we had received. We got there pretty early for a Friday night, or so we though, and we still had a 20 minute wait for a table. That seemed really odd because there were several empty tables so maybe it was a staffing issue. Anyway we had a good dinner and Bill brought about half of his home. I'll probably eat the extra cheese biscuits!

We don't have any big plans for the week-end. It looks like it is clouding up again. We're into the summer of the pop-up rain showers. Hopefully there won't be any storms like yesterday. The rain was heavy enough to have several flash flood warning issued.

All for this morning, Bill is probably getting hungry, so better get into the kitchen and feed him. Have a good week-end!
