That means the forsythia, daffodils and tulips can’t be far behind!  Maybe me, too.  Maybe I’ll start blooming now that winter is coming to an end.

Men don’t shop very well.  I took the boys out for a long time Saturday and bought them a bunch of pants, shorts, shoes, socks, and shirts.  Made them try everything on.  DH wouldn’t go but wanted me to pick up some pants for him.  We walked back to the RV Saturday evening and I made them all model for me.  Good thing I did because most of the stuff didn’t fit.  DH went from a 38 waist to a 40.  Hee, hee!  He wasn’t too happy about it.  The boys, on the other hand, seem to think that a waistband is not supposed to touch your skin.  They needed a size smaller.

We watched Australia Saturday night and then got up Sunday morning and had to exchange all the stuff that didn’t fit.  This time, DH went with us and kind of got into the swing of things.  I wasn’t shopping for me this time but he insisted that we go over to Coldwater Creek to see if they had any fantastic bargains and they did.  They had 70% off anything on the clearance racks so I got four blouses for $3.33 each and three pair of slacks for $4.87 each!  Couldn’t possibly pass that up.

Haven’t weighed myself since we got back.  I didn’t do terrible but I didn’t diet either.  I had a bunch of Chex Mix Saturday evening and we had pizza for dinner but I hated it so I only ate two slices.  It was from Snappy Tomato.  I’ve never had their pizza and didn’t care for it.  Also had to wait more than an hour to get it.  Don’t guess we’ll go back there.  Yesterday, I had a Boston Market turkey and dressing dinner and a huge salad with chicken.  Guess I’ll check out the damage in a few minutes.

Manny did great for his first outing of the year.  Saturday’s weather was fantastic and I really enjoyed opening the windows and sleeping with a cool breeze coming in all night.  Hmmm….wonder if that’s why my nose is all stopped up this morning.

SIL called and said they’re coming up for Easter.  They want to hang around Mom’s for most of the weekend and were planning on staying at Little Sister’s house.  SIL was concerned because she didn’t know if there would be enough room for them.  I offered to let her use the RV and she was really excited about it.  Mom and little sister live about 45 minutes from us so I guess we’ll drive Manny up there for Easter and let them use it.  Our own little hotel suite on wheels.

Gotta get my shower now and I’ll be back after the weigh in.
