Busiest time of the year

This is the busiest time of the year for me, Butch, the park and the Rio Grande Valley. Most everyone who is coming down have now arrived. All of the activities are in full swing. This time of year when the kids call we  might be interrupted by someone at the door or another call coming in etc.

 I have people who want to join me in my South Beach Diet. It has become obvious that it is working for me. I asked Butch if he was asking people to tell me I was losing weight because it is happening often. He swears he is not.

My friend Peggy is quite willing to take me to Costco anytime I want to go. One of the indulgences I have allowed myself is boiled eggs. Yes, I know I could boil them myself but it is a privilege to have them all done so I can eat one or put them in recipes anytime the urge strikes. Peeling boiled eggs can be a time consuming ordeal. I will miss being able to get them at Costco in their already boiled state.

Weekends, oddly enough are quieter than weekdays around here. Butch is going golfing and I have an appointment for computer assistance at 1:00 pm....And so goes the day!

Java Update

According to my geekie friends do not be quick to reinstall Java. Oracle says it is fixed but those in the know say "huh uh" "no" and "Not either". So hold off a while longer.

Kalyn's Kitchen

For those of you following South Beach or thinking of following South Beach this is a great website with easy recipes. I must give credit where it is due so I want to thank my friend Kay Stilson, a very good cook, for linking me up with this website.

Stayin' Alive

 
Entertainment as it was years ago. 
Rita Hayworth and the Bee Gee's!!!!

This is outstanding..... Someone had a lot of fun with this and spent hours putting these clips together. Most of the people in the clips were deceased before the Bee Gee's recorded "Stayin' Alive." Whether you are a Bee Gee's or Rita Hayworth fan or not...you are going to enjoy this!  Music may change, but the moves are timeless.
