A Welcomed Sight



Hey Yall! Can you see it? It is a double rainbow! I took the picture when I got out of the car at the Wally World this afternoon. It was a welcomed sight after getting nothing but rain for a couple of days. Maybe my sinuses will have some relief for a while.....yeah right.

Surprise...I posted again!



Hey Yall! As you can see from the picture above, Buzz is still upset about the game last weekend. Fortunately, I have gotten over it and moved on. So what is happening in Frannycakes world? Well, let's see.....

I drove to St. Marys Monday to pick Ms. Weezie from her Ga Ga and Granddaddy's house. She stayed for a week while we went here and there. She didn't seem to be very excited to see me. I figured that would change once we got home. Unfortunately, I think she depressed and wants to go back. Plus, she thinks she can eat what we eat.....hmmmmmm......

Savannah weather and my sinuses are NOT friends. I have woken up with a horrible headache the past two mornings. I had having to deal with this when it is hard enough just to fix a cup of coffee in the morning. So pitiful I know...

Trying to figure out what to pack for my quick trip to see Julianne this weekend. We are still quite "warm" here and they are into fall there. It is painful to even pull out the winter clothes and try them on. I end up turning the air conditioner down so I am not sweating the whole time. Yall might not want to me post anymore if I continue to whine like this....Honestly, I think it is the headache because you know I never whine....

I have some errands to run. TJMaxx, Marshalls, Ross, Walmart, Sams and pick up some food for Mr. Frannycakes for this weekend so he doesn't starve. Poor baby. He is on call this weekend or he would be going too!

I am going to Maine this weekend cause little Julianne is running in a marathon. She is alot like me in that respect. Twenty six plus miles.....where did she come from? I mean, I saw her when she entered the world and she still looks like that baby. Anyway, we are very proud of her for many many reasons and I can't wait to see her cross that finish line!

I guess I need to hit the road. If I time my errands just right, Dick will have to take me out for dinner and I can't mess around with my perfect timing....

Later...

Fun Weekend! Part 2

Hey Yall! I found a few more pics of our fun weekend. And I wouldn't want to deprive you of a couple of them......







Fun Weekend!

Hey Yall! Yeah.....I know....Frannycakes is not a good blogger these days. I want to be but seem to have a hard time putting together a post that anyone might find interesting. I know that I have vowed to do better. I meant it when I said it but you know how life goes. I would tell you that I am going to do better but you probably wouldn't believe me. I tell you what.....why don't you, my three readers, tell me what you want me to write or post about. Leave me a comment. You don't have to have a google account or anything like that. You can leave a comment and sign it with you name and just hit the anonymous button. I will be waiting.....

Last weekend we met Chris and Linley and Jamie in Atlanta for the GA Tech, North Carolina State football game. Lesley couldn't attend (so sad) because she had to study for a test on Monday (which FYI she did very well on!) and Julianne is way up north studying and enjoying cooler temps. Julianne's birthday was earlier this month and I told her we would be celebrating her birthday at the Tech football game....without her.....yes, I am cruel like that. Maeby Shea, Chris and Linley's boxer baby, came and stayed at the hotel very patiently while we enjoyed the sights. We stayed at a Hilton Suites and it was wonderful. Definitely gonna go there again.....

We rode MARTA down to North Avenue. The hotel took us to the Marta station which was a couple of miles from the hotel and then picked us up. We got there early so we could look around. It was already hot as all get out. We walked up the hill by the stadium and down to the student center. It does not seem like it could possibly be 32 or 33 years ago that Dick and I were walking around campus ready to experience life. The students all looked soooooooo...........young. Anyway, we were already starting to get soaked with sweat when we walked back down the hill to go into the stadium. We got seated around 11:30 and the sun was blazing. With no breeze. Ugh. Frannycakes held out until half time and left to go enjoy the rest of the game in the Varsity. With a slaw dog. And onion rings. With lots of grease. And a diet coke. And air conditioning. About 15 minutes later, Dick joined me. We were both completely soaked with sweat.

I think we are a jinx to Tech. Well, maybe just me. Anytime I watch a game or go to a game, they lose. Any team I watch and want to win, lose. So I have decided to eliminate sports from my activities. Only for the benefit of the teams, from the bottom of my heart.

After going back to the hotel to take a shower and changing out of wet clothes, we headed back downtown to ride around and have dinner. We all turned in early. After breakfast the next morning, we all headed in different directions to return to each of our daily lives.

Hope yall enjoy the pictures! Don't forget to leave me a comment on what you want me to do a post on.......

Later....
