Where do you wish you were today?

Today I wish I was sitting on the Dock of Bay, sipping on a tasty beverage and Watching the tide roll away just sitting on the dock of the bay Wasting time....you know how the song goes. I could use some relaxing time.....it would be so nice.

And the cocktail I'd be drinking and the one in the picture is a Chambord Margarita. Doesn't it look refreshing!!

Ingredients:
2 oz Jose Cuervo® 1800 tequila
1 oz Cointreau® orange liqueur
1 oz Chambord® raspberry liqueur
4 oz sweet and sour mix

Directions:
Add all ingredients to a cocktail shaker half-filled with ice cubes. Shake well, and pour over ice in a salt-rimmed margarita glass. Serve.

Enjoy your day!!!

Update on Dad "The Buck"

Dad is still recovering from his surgery. He had a little set back. The doctor removed the tube on Thursday morning but he had to be rushed back to the doctor by the end of the day because he was in so much pain. Thanks to Uncle Lenny for being the hero and rushing Dad back to the doctor. They put the tube back in and it will stay until this Wednesday, just to be safe. He still feels pretty good and his getting around fine. He's camping out at our house now. Which is fine with us, we love his company!!!
I know he is counting the minutes until he can get back to normal again!!
Hang in there Dad!!! We Love You!!
XOXOX

Recovering

Dad "The Buck" is recovering today from surgery he had yesterday. He had between 40-50 kidney stones removed. We (Me, Gina & Aunt Dot) spent the entire day at the hospital, and he was able to come home in the early evening yesterday.

He is doing great and is happy that is all over and he's not in pain anymore and so are the rest of us!! Of course I can't breath the minute I walk in that stupid hospital and the minute they said he was done and in recovery I had to get out of there. I spent the last couple of hours waiting outside the hospital.

Thanks to my Aunt Dot and Sister Gina for being able to hang when I just couldn't take it anymore.

Today, Uncle Lenny had some minor surgery as well, and he is home and doing well also. Both of them are recovering at Aunt Dot's House.

Thanks Aunt Dot for always taking such good care of all of us!!!

WE LOVE YOU!!

Little Indians

I found these cute pictures of Nathan & Megan on Rob's Camera. They are from our visit to Quite Waters Park over the summer. The park had a great camp ground area but it was completely destroyed after the hurricane a few years ago. They are finally restoring the camping area and they put up these Teepee's ..

We soooooooooo miss these little indians!!!

Happy Birthday Mom

I am so sad as Today is my Mom's Birthday. She would have been 65 today and she was so looking forward to finally getting ready to retire and she wanted a big party.

I miss her you so much and I hope she is at peace.

My heart has never known such heartache and I can't catch my breath sometimes from the pain. As time passes the pain doesn't go away, it just changes and sometimes it's even worse than ever.

Today I Celebrate my Mom and I am thankful for the time that I had her in my life.

I Love You Mom and I will never stop missing you!!
