Happy New Year!!!

Whew!!  I made it through another one!!  We are laying low tonight, but Becky is making a Great dinner!  Pulled-Pork BBQ sandwiches, slow cooked in the crock pot and served on onion rolls… Red cabbage cole slaw and Roasted Potato Salad made with fingerling potatoes, red onion, garlic, capers, bacon and mayonaise!!  Tomorrow I’m making Buffalo Wings!!  The potato salad looks GOOD!!

Well, it had to happen!  I have had strangers coming to my door asking for the phone number of my gardener. I talked to him today and jokingly reminded him that I had referred 9 jobs to him and thought that he should not charge me anymore. LOL!!  Amazingly, he said OK!!  WOOOOO!!!  We shall see….  Here is what my lawn looks like now…  Not bad for December 31st, huh?  They do such a great job and wore red Santa hats today!

December Lawn 002

Tomorrow is the Rose Bowl parade and game.  I love the marching bands!!  As for the game, I am torn.  Being from the East coast I like Penn State but living here, I also like USC!!  I guess all I can hope for is a good game.

I just watched a program about monster spiders!! (shiver!!).  They showed a tarantula that was 6 feet across from leg to leg and was eating rabbits, cats and deer!!  Now they are showing giant squid about 100 feet long that eat humans!!  YIKES!!  Why do I watch this??  Becky refuses to watch! LOL!!!!

Well, I’m done!!  I hope you all have a Fabulous New Years Eve and a Wonderful 2009!

I had another song that I wanted to play tonight but this one says it all… From me to all of you!!!!!  My wish to you in 2009.

    Your lawn looks wonderful….are you sure it is real (or fake LOL).We are laying low tonight too. Road conditions are too icy…and that coupled with drunk driver (of which I am sure there will be some) it is safer to stay home and watch a few movies. Want to usher in 2009 in one piece…not in a hospital emergency ward.You and Becky have a great evening….and I will be back next year.*Hugs*Karin

    HAPPY NEW YEAR BOB!! MAN the food sounds too good to be true.. I will hop a plane right now and be there before the parade starts.. Have you ever Been to the parade in person? Many people tell me they live near but would never do that because of the crowds. I wonder if you can really SMELL the flowers from those things? How cool that must be. Well your garderner must be one great guy to agree with you. Ya know if you get him too busy he wont have time for yours. ; ) LOL TAke care : )

    Ick spiders. When my son was in Iraq he said there were these spiders called Camel spiders. They were as big as your fist and would actually chase you! They were aggressive and their bite was horrid. My poor baby. I told him just unload your gun on them! (Not allowed he said) UghHappy New year to you too Bob, and you just keep paying those wonderful gardners, they’re worth it!
