Monday Morning Coffee Corner:May 18

Hi there,,,, good morning everyone... Hope you have a nice week.


I have some news.  Dh and I decided we need to get away.  I know that sounds so dumb as we are always "away" from somewhere ! LOL  So last night we decided to go to the Aegean. We have a summer house there overlooking the sea, it's built into the lava stone cliff and we haven't been there in 3 years.  The only time we could possibly go is this/next week.   We found cheap plane tickets (what luck as it's 1 hr by plane vs 14 hrs by car, hmmmm which one?) , so we are off thursday on the  night flight  (may 21st ) and will return on the  Thursday, may 28 on the  night flight.  That means you will be all alone  here on the board.  I will set up a thread for some volunteers for that week,,,  ;O) Hope you don't mind.   The big news is that I'm going laptop-less, as there is no phone service there so no internet... GASP.  Maybe this will be good for me,, or it will grow hair on my chest : not sure which one. LOL   


So what's up with all of you?

So glad to hear you're doing this!!! Yes, you certainly do need to capture your husband and get away from it all. Now, don't be getting all teary over Coffee while you're gone either..just put all your concentration and joy on yourself and your husband and being together..doctor's orders!!


As for my week....taking care of stuff that needs to be done..going out to dinner with my church Circle group..dentist cleaning appointment..shopping for some fun things to send to my kiddies in Cincinnati..choir..and John's youngest sister's 60th bday party on Saturday. That's it at this point anyway, should be a good week.


I had a nice surprise last night...the widow of a cousin of

Geez, Ann, after reading all of that makes we wish I was a Trekker too!! I think..strange as they look when I've seen them on tv..it would be way fun to dress up and go to a ST convention!!


OMG..I had the tv on mute and glanced over and Martha is on and she was mixing up a bowl of cake batter by hand..I think it was cake batter anyway..and it looked so darned good that I had to turn the tv off!! I could take a spoon and eat that whole bowl full, wouldn't have to be put into the oven, just give me the batter!! LOL!!


Okay..sorry about that..back on track now..LOL..wonderful that you got to go on a date with your hubby and had such a great time! Great way to start your week!

Have a good week!
