Hey (Mary and deegee).......It''s been such a nice (but Bloody Hot) weekend. For me, sleeping in is such a luxury, and I was able to do it both yesterday and today! Even though it''s unmercilously hot down here, our terrace doesn''t get direct sun in the morning (we have a northen exposure, which in Florida is a major benefit), so we had breafkast both days on the terrace. Iced coffee, might be a better alternative to hot coffee though........Charlie was in the mood for a hotdog (wow a hamburger last weekend, then a hotdog this weekend is kind of rare for Charlie), so we went to Frankie''s, where they have really terrific hotdogs for lunch. Followed of course by coffee (indside) at Sbucks before a very strong workout at the gym. After our workout, we came home and walked to this really nice place directly on the water for dinner. I had a wonderful shrimp and scallop dish over linquine with a very light lobster sauce - yummm. Charlie had grilled salmon, also yummm. There''s a really close Sbucks from there, so we got drinks and walked back to the waterfront (it''s called The Tampa Riverwalk) and sat and watched boaters, walkers, etc., until after the sun set, then we walked home. We love love being able to walk to so many fun places. Today was as planned. Very quiet. Breakfast on the terrace, a light lunch, Sucks, the grocery store, the home. We took a nice long swim (OK soak) in the pool, while I grilled fillets for our dinner. After dinner, we walked up to the entertainment complex for coffee (it was too hot for coffee), so we stopped off on our way home to the little pub next to our condo for a nice cold beer. Of course we were all sweaty, so we took another dip in the pool and now we''re ready to watch the seaon premier of True Blood. All in all, a nice weekend indeed.
deegee, if there isn''t a law saying it''s illegal to work late on Friday, there should be!! I like the Nissan Murano a lot. Actually all the SUV''s you''re considering are pretty cool. Hanging out at the house on a rainy day, sounds nice. Yummm, Itialian sounds good! Ihope you get the chance to wear your skorts and get a wee bit of sun on your legs!
Marcy, I''m sure Marty is ''uber'' excited about getting his iPad. Charlie and are still thinking about getting them for Xmas. He''d really love how it works like a Kindle for reading books. 40s and rainy? Wow, it seems hard to imagine it being that cool, when it''s in the upper 90s here. We still haven''t had any rain, but the rainy season should kick in sometime in the next or so. ONce it does, we''ll have rain just about every afternoon........
It''s going to be a tough week for me. I have so many interviews scheduled and I have to prep each person for them. It will be Wednesday at the earliest that I''ll be able to get to the gym.
I hope everyone had a good weekend.........
