I have a new nick-name for dear husband. "Fattening". No, I am not calling him fat. He is fattening. When I am around him, I eat. He was off for Good Friday, so he had a three-day weekend. You want to know what we did? We ate. And ate. And ate. We went to Knoxville on Saturday and had cheesecake. Then we brought home a box of Krispy Kremes. He was home for three days and I gained back almost five pounds. I really need to work on my willpower when I am around him. I have all the junk out of the house now and I am back on the road to healthy eating, at least until he has a few more days off.

I came across a few words this week that I really like:

Gallivant
Shenanigans
Teetotalism

I think I will try to use them all in a sentence today.

The birds have been waking me up in the mornings. It's such a nice way to start the day.

We saw a story on the news recently about a mayor in a small town in Kentucky that had been banned from entering any local businesses because...he's a dog. You can read about it here. He is only the second dog to be elected. I love the look of this website, especially the map. Isn't it great to see a whole town with a sense of humor?

Guess that's it for now. Thanks for stopping by. Toodles!
