Storms

I do not like thunderstorms. I do not mind rain, but I can live without the lightening and thunder. We have been having a lot of them over the past few weeks. The rain is good for the grass, flowers and the garden, but not for my nerves. My mom has said that I act like my grandfather, when storms come. Maybe he knew something that we don't. Sometimes I try to think of the childhood tale was told me, of that lightening was the angels dancing, the thunder was God clapping for them and the rain was God tears of happiness. If worked to calm me as a child, really not working as an adult. As we speak, I am forcing myself to stay awake to watch the news until the thunderstorm warning expire, which I hope is in a few minutes. I really need to get over it, but I hope at sometime tonight I  am able to get some rest. Good blogging friends.

It would be filled with antiques and have a large sitting area. It would be shabby chic . 6.   If I could wake up anywhere tomorrow morning it would be        on a porch on a beach house listening to the waves roll in and the feeling the sun rise on my face . 7.   The longest sleep I've ever had was    I a...

On the Road Again.....

It was between Chicago and the state of Pennsylvania. Well....the state of Pennsylvania won out for our little trip for our first anniversary. It is a shorter drive than going Chicago, especially since we do not want to spend most of our mini-vacation in the car. I have a co-worker that lived in Pennsylvania and she gave me some great places for us to visit like, the Phipps Conservatory, the incline at Mt. Washington and the Pittsburgh Zoo ( I think that the hubby would like the aquarium). It is hard to believe that it has been almost a year since our wedding, but I can not wait for our time away. Even though I want to see somethings while we are there, I really just want to relax. If  you know any great places to go or see in the state of  Pennsylvania let me know. We are looking at taking some three day weekend trips in the summer and maybe a week long trip to the beach in the fall.  Do you have any plans for trips anytime soon or this summer? Share we might want to g...
