I'll be spending the day trying to distract my 4 yr old. (parade and regular festivities) who will be asking me "is it time to go to the airport yet?" over and over. We have 2 teenage relatives flying in around 5 pm from Spain for the month of July. And nothing excites my 4 yr old like someone coming to visit!

I think it means heavy rain. Lord, did it pour yesterday;but that is ok, it probably prevented a Roman candle sparked forest fire.

Oh...like I shouldn't know heavy rain!!! :wave:

Hey IBD, we're practically neighbors when we're down there that is :wave: Oh gttbmom, you sound like a willing and funn hostess :clap: I thought it was gonna be just hubbabubba and me. The youngest gull is having her own college party at MTSU and thought the oldest was going to her in laws but they decided not to go til the weekend :dunno: :D :clap: It's all good but I just :love: your sig this am. I am just remembering crossing the 'anger bridge' last nite while rubbing ribs for today and the guys, son in law and hubbabubba, were out in the front yard shooting off firecrackers causing my 55 lb dog to crawl up me between me and the kitchen counter. I am sorta germophobic and was :eek:in' out that dog hair might be flyin' around all my ribs. Hubbabubba says he forgot about how she freaks out. ;-) So then when son in law came in, like a jerk, I told him if he gets hair in his ribs its cuz of his dang firecrackers. :D Then I notice toy stuffing all over the place and my 2 visiting grand dogs have my skeered babies' favorite pink and green squeaky squirrel all tore up :shock: See those 2 have to get the squeakers out of everything within seconds. Dang! I forgot to move everything.:roll: Oh yeah,cuz I was at the confounded grocery store again:bang: So I'm really tryin' to get back to and stay on the 'friendship shore'. That sig was so right on for me this mornin', gttbm. :D :D :D I am very lucky to have such trivial problems, huh :clap: Oh well it's only us and them eating the possible dog hairs. ;-) I just wanna kick back and be thankful for my freedom today. :love: Thanks to all you military peeps out there. :clap:

I'm still trying to decide if I'm gonna work that day and take Friday off.

That's my plan...headed out to do a little work right now...

...running/walking the Peachtree Road Race...

I've never had any desire to get in the middle of all that mess, especially to RUN! (But I hope it's a good time for you!)

fireworks....;-)

Yip! Headed over to a friend's house on the lake. Picnic supper, watermelon & s'mores, put the ankle-biters in lifejackets and throw 'em in the cove.

...but if it is a frog choker like today they wont be seen very well.

We always called them "toad stranglers." Dad sometimes says "gully washers," and in Lonesome Dove they're "turd floaters..."

Having an impromptu "Teenie Wienie" party, which I fervently hope is something that involves martinis and hotdots! Neighbors on Bainbridge Island invited me to this, then asked if I would be willing to have it on my deck, since it is a large one and waterfront. Their deck is being rebuilt...carpenter ants...yikes! So I used this as an excuse to replant all my flower boxes and containers, scrub down the deck, put out Old Glory in duplicate. We will cook outside, then watch the fireworks in Seattle from across the water. What is it about islands that they all go so nuts around the Juy 4th holiday? I love it! All day yesterday and today.

Happy Inependence Day to all of you. I will be thinking about the fireworks at Grayton, not to mention the parade. And whoever you are staying at Conch Out this week, have a ball there. Yahoo!

:clap: :clap:
