Just "chilling"

The weather is just beautiful here...But I wish I was there......

So.....what do you think?

She just makes me smile...

End of the rainbow....

Well......this is a picture of the end of a rainbow. I thought at every end of rainbow there is a huge pot of gold. And maybe some little dancing guys....No such luck..I guess I'll keep my day job...

1st Day of Summer!

Summertime...Summertime...Summertime...

Bring on the warm weather....This is the time of year I enjoy so much hanging out on my back porch, doing my best to just chill. I try spend all day just lounging around on a "floatie" in my pool, trying to relax and enjoy my time off hoping my neighbors can't hear my occasional snoring. In the evening the grill comes out and I try to cook something without burning it or have it fall through the slats on the grill rack. Thank goodness that emergency beer in my hand could put out any fires if needed. And on something falling through the slats...is there a 5 second rule in affect? The day usually ends watching the sunset over the trees in my back yard wishing the day lasted longer..

My Weekend Plans....

Ok.....this is my desk at home. This is all the work I need to get done this weekend. Yearly staff evaluations are due and I'm also working on a 30min educational inservice. I would love to have my own personal secretary. And how about my own personal chef to bring me a cup of fresh brewed coffee at my beckon call? And maybe some of those cute little pastries you see in the local bakery with my coffee. Oh my... I do live in a delusional world sometimes...

Super Bowl Party Fun...

Super Bowl Party Fun..

My gal made these cute football helmet jello-shots for a Super Ball Party on Sunday. I'm not a great fan of jello-shots, but these certainly looked good. And I think they were as they were all gone by the end of the game.

Beautiful full moon evening..

I was walking out to the mailbox the other evening and my eyes caught this beautiful view of the almost full moon rising. We have been having a "cool-cold" spell this week, so the sky has been amazingly clear. Well, I mean here in Florida it has been cool-cold at least by our tropical standards. You know....40-50's.
I know. I know. That's not really cold by most of the country's standard's... I left the cold and snowy North quite a few years ago and I do not miss it. Not one bit. All those snow storms I've been seeing on the news gives me the shivers.. Give me the warm and sunny weather any time...

The famous Key West ED mug..

Here it is.....the famous Key West coffee mug. I don't know what it is about coffee mugs....but I like them. My favorite ones are the heavy stoneware type with a large handle so when you are sipping your 1st cup of the day, you can hold it with 2 hands close to your chest careful not to fall asleep and spill it in your lap.
This great mug was given to me by a friend on one of my vacation trips to Key West. We had a blast as usual and I somehow got the nickname as ED...thus the name on the mug. 

I'm not much of a morning person except when I'm on vacation. I don't know what it is about vacation, but only on vacation I enjoy getting up...really-really early... to watch the sunrise. Forget about it any other time. Bring me my coffee in bed, and maybe I'll get up smiling or at least being able to stand up-right. I guess it would also depend on who brought me the coffee...right Pumpkin?

Cute Little Turtles..

Look at these guys...aren't they just sooo cute. 

Wishing I were here..

Wishing I were here...Enjoying the sunset down in the keys. With a cute little pink Cosmo in one hand listening to the waves of the ocean....Ahhhh
