Heart

Hi,
Our Monday is just winding down as yours is getting started. We had a pretty good weekend. The weather here has been cloudy during the day and rainy at night. Not a lot, but rain just the same. The humidity is high and it takes some getting used to.
We got confirmation about the house, and went to Big C to price appliances. One of the most interesting things we discovered was the washing machines. They sell these top-loading devices that have a washer on one side, and what appeared to be a dryer on the other. What we found out is, the second tub is just a 'spinner', not a dryer. Because it's so hot, they just hang the clothes to dry. Hmm, I'm gonna miss 'fluffy softness' that one gets in a dryer. We did spot a dryer, but it was very expensive. Jen and the boys met us at a major 'electric' store and we put a deposit on a TV and got a free DVD player. Now I'm ready to move in. (Ha) We also found that the prices were better at the swanky store than at the department store. Who knew?
Oh, the song you couldn't remember was The Supreme's singing "You Keep Me Hangin' On". A bunch of you got it and that's a good thing. I'm gonna kick off the week with another R&B from a little earlier in the same decade. Try this:
"You know I love you, do anything for you. Just don't mistreat me and I'll be good to you..." Hmm, could be so many songs, but this was a hit in the '60s by a confident woman. Maybe tomorrow's line will fill in the blanks.
Today we went to check out the neighborhood around 'the house'. There had been some concern expressed by some of out friends about the area. We had Supat take us over and we just walked up and down the street, getting a feel for who and what was around. As we set out on our walk, we spotted a small group of cows, walking down the street. It was a bull and his harem, plus some calfs. They were totally on their own, just out for a morning stroll.
The big news is, the C-Bass 'freeze' is over. He called us, and it was the best thing to happen all weekend. We knew it would happen eventually, but it felt weird, not having him in our lives.
This is a link that I thought everyone should go to. It's a very important story that must be shared with the world.

Enough craziness, have a WonderFilled Week.
