Hi, here we are again...waiting! I spend most of my life waiting...the Coyote went shooting, so I'm home with plenty to do, but, because of the surgery, I can't do any of it. I suppose I could dust, but why? Think about it, I live in Wyoming- where the wind never stops blowing and the closest homeowner living by us hasn't decided what he wants to do with the two HUGE piles of dirt that he has as a front lawn. Beside, Dust is just a Country Accent!
This is the Labor Day Weekend...we are not going to be laboring. We are going to be playing. Our friends from Oklahoma, Lips and family, are on their way, as we speak. They have already crossed the Wyoming border and I"M SO EXCITED!!! We are going to Yellowstone Park. We are going to spend some time in a cabin on the way. We are going to eat well, and play hard!
When we get home, the boys will go riding on their ATVs, and us girls are gonna be doing girl things. Like shopping, and shopping, and eating, and shopping and getting our nails done, and, in general, treating ourselves like princesses. We will watch movies and eat chocolate....yummmmm. Hummmmm, maybe I should get some marciano cherries, that sounds good, too.
I guess that's about all for now, now I just wait.....
As far as today goes, we went to Billie and Judi's place and brought in some lunch, Judi and I drooled over jewelry things to make. The boys played with their guns. Don't be nasty - the ones that you put bullets in and shoot at targets or kill something. Billie helphed the Coyote finish his stock, and they were happy campers.

EXCITEMENT IS IN THE AIR
Well, let me tell you...I don't quite know what is going on with the Coyote, here, but he is sure doing a lot of things to make me happy. What a great day this was. Wednesday is mowing day (we have about 1 1/2 acres) and he has his John Deer, so he doesn't mind too much. While he was working, my friend Ethel and I went out to lunch at the one and only Chinese Restaurant in Cody, thank heaven it is pretty good. We had a nice lunch, and then we finished just in time to go to our girlie shop to have our nails done. (being retired is so much fun) Anyway, I just had my toesies done, because my fingers are too many lengths at the present time. Ethel got a manicure. We have so much fun because our salon is really a house that has been turned into a "studio". It's very fun and so relaxing. Patti-nails is a hoot, she is a flight attendant when she has to keep her status current, otherwise she is a Cody-ite and loves it. We just have a hoot while we are there.
I talked to my two boys today and they are doing well. They live in Florida and we will be flying out to see them in November, I'm looking forward to seeing them. Dumbo has had surgery and Woody just found a neat place to move. It's a brick home right on the lake, with a dock and everything. I think they are both happy and working towards being happier. Dumbo is a realator and Woody works at Disney World....but Woody likes the real estate work and he is working for the Disney Vacation Club. They are both cuties and different as night and day. But I love them so much!!!
And, now, for my final paragraph, I have to brag on the coyote....he has been doing so much around the house, it's unbelievable. I had surgery, the 3rd of August, a fusion of two discs in my neck and since then, I'm not to lift, push, pull or carry anything. I've not driven, or been able to work on my sewing, quilting or anything....can we say frustration!!! Anyway, the Coyote has really made the lawns beautiful, planted more trees, he let me buy more plants, so he had to plant more, two mugo pines and one star jasmine. But the surprise of all surprises is my windmill. We bought it in a box about 2/3 years ago. He just wouldn't put it together for me....well, I got home today, and OMG...I looked out the back doors and there is was, completely put together and planted right in the exact place I wanted it, by the star jasmine....WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I'm excited.
Then, talking excitement.....Lips, Bob and the midget are on their way. They had been on the road about an hour when I called, OMG.....I can't believe September is finally here. My friends are finally comeing to play....yiiiiiipppppppeeee!
So, I guess that's about it, for now, can't hardly wait for the group to get here, we are gonna have sooooooooooooo much fun....

I LIKE THEM CHUNKY !
I'm sure this will surprise everyone, especially me....I'm blogging again. I have too today because it is a very special day. 29 August 2006 at 1611 hrs. my Niece, Amy Hall, gave birth to her first child, after eight years of marriage! Travis and Amy have wanted a child from the very beginning, however, it didn't come to pass. They tried everything, including invetro three times, and the third time was a charm....they now have a new addition to their family. Let me introduce, Ella Kirsten Hall, 9 pounds, 8 ounces, and 19 inches tall. They say she has brown hair (both mom and dad are blond) so it will probably go light. Mom, dad, and Ella, are doing well.
As for me...so much water under the bridge....you know life, days come and go. I think I am on my way back, I had a fusion of 2 discs in my neck and my headaches are very infrequent now. I am not back among the driving, yet, I have three months for "hard labor" and I'm not there yet. But I can do most normal things, just no lifting, pushing, pulling or carrying. I go back to the surgeon Friday, the 31st. Maybe he will lighten my sentence.
I'm really hoping, since our friends from Oklahoma will be here on the 30th!!!!!! Yeah!!!!!!! I can hardly wait!!! There is one change this year, I don't think we can call Kaitlyn, their daughter, the midget any longer. She has grown so much, she might have even longer legs than I. But, we are going to Yellowstone and all over. The girls get to hang out while the two guys go ATVing....so it should make for a great time all around.
OK, this is good for my first time back...I just have to say, CONGRADULATIONS TO AMY AND TRAVIS, AND ELLA, SHE'S FINALLY HERE!!!
OH, and if Lips should read this, you all be careful on the drive...but hurry, kinda, so you will get here fast. So the fun can begin!
