Honesty

Over the weekend, Don and I did some searching for an exercise bicycle. Apparently we have gotten out of shape as we have grown older. :) We found 2 we liked, 1 at Sears and the other 1 at Dicks. Unfortunately, the one at Dicks was on the east side of town, so we went over there on Sunday. After comparing the 2, we decided to get the one at Sears. It was a struggle but we finally got it into the car. We drove very slow on the way home so as not to dump it off in the road. After getting home, we discovered they had given us the wrong one. Not wanting to drive all the way back over there and them not have the one we wanted, we called. It has been a long time since I have had such terrible service. They were not helpful at all!!! We ended up returning it to the Sears at Greenwood. Which by the way, they bent over backward to accomodate and to fix the situation. Now, I am sure you are wondering why is she going on and on about this. Well, it's because had we been dishonest, we could have kept the original one that was bigger and more expensive, sold it on craigslist for a profit and bought the other one and would have been money ahead. But, we are just not that type of people.

Birthday



My mother-in-law, Suzanne, had a birthday on Sunday. She has been through a lot in her life, and if you are willing to listen has stories to tell. Her mind is still sharp and although she is now "75 years young" is very active. She loves God, her country and her family and it is evident in every thing that she does. She is a very special person that I am glad is a part of my life. Happy Birthday, may we celebrate with you many, many more.

Sanibel Island

I got my toes in the water, ass in the sand
Not a worry in the world, a cold beer in my hand
Life is good today. Life is good today.

Life was good that day and every day that we are able to be on Sanibel. :)




We are home from 2 great weeks of vacation. This is just a few of the many pictures I was able to take. I hope you like them as much as I do.
