Antique Cars.....



We headed out to an antique/classic car show & flea market today! The cars were beautiful, the first one we came upon was owned by a retired United States Marine...now girls you know I am a sucker for a Marine :D he was Vietnam Vet. He had two cars in the show. A 1934 Ford Coupe & a Model T, they were BEAUTIFUL! Well, I thanked him for allowing us to see & sit in his cars and for his service & ladies he thanked me...I was taken back, I don't know him & I didn't know what I was being thanked for. He just smiled and tapped the tattoo on my leg with his cane. I looked down and started to fill up, he said "Marine Momma"...."yes sir"..."well, ma'am that's probably the toughest job one can serve in the Corps" we just laughed. I asked if I could give him a hug & he obliged this crazy Marine mom!!! He gave me a giant bear hug & shook Mr. P's hand. While we were walking away he yelled "Semper Fi Folks". I turned and waved!

WE picked our way through all of those beauties, I spotted a classic 1937 Jaguar ~ I WAS IN LOVE!!!! And then, as I rounded the corner I spotted her, & oh I was just in awe!!! With what you ask?????



A 1949 VW Beetle Cabriolet Bug...The Original Punch Buggy!!!!

Silly I know but I just love those BUGS! I got to sit inside and pretended I was zipping down the Autobahn ~ BEEP BEEP!!

After that we wandered around to the tables that were set up, Mr. P found an antique long-bow and he scooped it up. I was too hot to look, I didn't want to see anything that I loved and then have to lug it around with me ~ DANG!

That was our day, hope you enjoyed your Sunday!

Until tomorrow, Be Safe & God Bless....

SHARK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



What's a girl to do!!! The beaches around these parts are closed due to a great white swimming just off of Horseneck Beach!!! YIKES!!! That's where we go, he was spotted right off of the beach, where it makes the turn and becomes the town beach....OMG that's where we always go, I can't take Ms. B this weekend, she'd be gobbled up in a second!

I'm going to go down there and just sun myself and take my camera, hey maybe I'll get a picture or two! He is chasing the bluefish that are hanging around out there! They said that he is anywhere from 10 - 12 feet ~ AHHH!!

One of my all time favorite movies is JAWS, I love the scene where the girl yells "SHARK, SHARK, there's a shark in the pond" and of course when Brody tells him "smile you SOB" classic!

"I think we're gonna need a bigger boat!"

Murder Mystery & Football Games.....





Nikky called last night, she and Mike were invited to a 1930's Themed Murder Mystery Dinner Party. It just happens to be Mike's best man Steve so they should have a great time!! The only catch, they have to go in costume. Doesn't that sound like fun?? So she's on the hunt to find costumes. I hope that they take some pictures all dressed up, they'll look so cute!

Then as I was wrapping my night Billy called, he wanted to know if he could use my Stubhub account to order tickets to the Washington Redskins ~ Green Bay Packers game on October 10th, he has a 96 & he is going to surprise Katrina, awwwww SO CUTE! She's from Alaska but LOVES the Redskins...hmmmm ~ we're PATS fans ALL THE WAY BABY!! They should have fun & hopefully they take pictures too!



So that was my Tuesday night, oh and LOTS OF LAUNDRY :/

Until tomorrow, Be Safe & God Bless!!! Please keep praying it really works!

Laundry AGAIN.....



Ladies, this gal is about to go on STRIKE!!! Yes, that's right I said GO ON STRIKE!!!!

I want to know where all of the laundry comes from, there are only two of us here!!!???!!! I really think that Bailey is running around in our things when we aren't home, that or somebody is coming in here dirtying up all of our "stuff"

Lord have mercy, that machine could run all day & there would still be dirty laundry to do in the morning ;D

Well, I'm off to the cellar...one more load to fold before I hit the hay!

Until tomorrow, Be Safe & God Bless....please keep praying, it REALLY WORKS!!!!

High Anxiety.....



Do any of you suffer from Sunday night anxiety???? I do, I don't sleep well on Sunday night, actually come to think of it I don't sleep well at all :/ BUT SUNDAY NIGHTS REALLY STINK! I get anxious about falling asleep, work myself up into a frenzy & then can't sleep! Makes for a very long Monday!!!

I have such anxiety about so many things, my family is changing and I feel like we are all growing apart from each other. I've tried and tried but I am just too tired now, I never seem to say the right thing. I find I always offend somebody. I find myself clamming up so that I don't say the wrong thing & I find that I keep how I am feeling inside and bottled up all of the time!

I just feel lost and alone today, kind of like if I were to just dispear would anybody notice that I was gone...yeah, I guess when the laundry wasn't done, the tummies got hungry, birthdays went by without a gift, Thanksgiving didn't have a Turkey, Christmas was treeless....maybe then & then would it only be for that moment? I think so!

Sorry to be such a downer today, no sleep tends to make me touchy. Maybe tomorrow I'll just crawl under the bed and hide there!

Until tomorrow, Be Safe & God Bless.....

A Day At The Beach, By: Bailey P.....









Hello Girls, I am back to blogging tonight! Mom didn't take the night off I just felt like blogging & sharing my day with all of you!

As promised WE WENT TO THE BEACH!!! I was tail-wagging happy ;D

I fetched, I saw, I played in the waves, I walked down the beach with my mom, she swam wayyyy out and I paddled behind her ~ we were two tired girls last night!

Dad patrolled the shore for other dogs and any people that might have gotten to close to us...so many people stopped to watch us & they kept asking if they could pet me ~ NO NOT WHEN I AM WORKING & When I fetch my bumper I am in my "retrieving that bird" frame of mind & I am all business!!!!!

When we got home I had to get a bath, I WAS A DIRTY "DAWG" ....then I ate my dinner and curled up and went to sleep. I was so tired I didn't even wake up to go outside, mom got a big kiss early this morning BECAUSE I REALLY HAD TO GO ;D so out we went & then back to bed!

She made a delicious leg of lamb for dinner tonight & I got to have a taste, that gal can cook ~ LOL! I was smacking my chops & drooling for some more!

We are just relaxing now, dad is taking his nap before going to off to work & we are going to go & read!

I hope we get to go back to the beach next weekend, I'll keep my toes crossed!

Mom said to say HOWDY & she'll be back tomorrow so until then.....Be Safe & God Bless!
