We had a very nice lunch with our friends yesterday. They brought over some bananas that were starting to go bad, so I traded them the banana bread for their bananas... now DH will have to wait another day or so until he gets some banana bread.

I'm going to make split pea soup and scalloped potatoes with the left-over ham. After I get off the computer I'll probably start the soup cooking in the crockpot. Yum...

I'm listen to Toby Keith on Rhapsody right now. I like country sometimes, but it's not usually my first choice when I turn on the radio. But there is just something about Toby Keith that makes me swoon... his voice, his looks, although his personality doesn't amuse me that much...

Spyros is itching to get out and do something today/this weekend. He has a store meeting at 4pm today though, so we'll just have to take a walk around here. He keeps asking where are we going to go hiking Saturday...

The second load of laundry is going, the dishes are done, the bed is stripped... still have to vacuum but I always feel bad because it really scares the cats. If they wouldn't shed as much though, I wouldn't have to vacuum as much... if they would only figure this out!

Frugal/Simple Thought of the Day: Get out and enjoy the day with a walk before we loose an hour to daylight savings tomorrow.
DH has a real problem with daylight savings time. How we blindly change our clocks because we're told to, and how we can't get our calendar right even though the ancients from the past could do it fine by only observing nature.
I think he's on to something...
