Waiting and Hoping

I am home along right now. I'm lonesome and wish Dail was home. Nick has gone out with Bethany and Brandon to the video store. He wants to rent some movies. They are going to make a few other stops so I'm not sure when he will be home. Dail gets off in an hour but he will have to stop at the market on his way home to pick up dinner. We are having pan-fried steak with mushrooms and whole new potatoes. I will go easy on the taters. Dail makes the best pan-fried steak you have ever had. After dinner, we will get back to out Twin Peaks marathon.

I am excited for Bethany and Brandon. Something good may be getting ready to happen for them. They have submitted paperwork to buy their very first home. Won't know anything until tomorrow but I'm hoping and praying it works out for them. They are very excited and are making plans and dreaming about what improvements they will make. I remember when Dail and I bought this place. We couldn't afford new furniture right away but we managed with what we had until we could afford new things. Now I wouldn't trade this place for anything. It is getting older but it is still home.  I am going to see about redecorating this spring. Maybe some new wallpaper or paint.

I have to say that I am relieved that Friday is here. I am ready for the weekend. Hopefully all of us will have a good one. I will post my challenge update tomorrow.

  1. Hi Karen. I am glad you guys are enjoying your shows. It's always fun to just sit and relax together. It's been a long time since we had steak, that sound pretty darn good. I am so happy for Bethany and Brandon, it would be so cool that they get their own place. I'm sorry you had to have it out with your other daughter but glad you didn't hold it in any longers. Maybe things will work out in the end, we can both hope and prayer.
    Take care and do have a great weekend. Can't wait to read your update. I'm working on mine right now. Blessings my friend!

  2. Thanks, Julie. Twin Peaks is really getting involved and more intriguing. Dail and I are having a ball watching it. We still have a lot of episodes to go before we are finished.

    Bethany should know something tomorrow about the house. I'm sure she will be blogging about what happens along with her update.

    You have as great weekend too, dear. I will be thinking about you. :)

  4. It was wonderful, Ronnie. Dail makes the best steaks and the sauteed mushrooms really set it off with the marinade he used. I had a few bite of the new potatoes too but other than that I behaved. There was no dessert or anything like that. I have been back on track all day and it feels good but I have been a little shaky. I guess my body is detoxing from the carbs. Either that or I have had too much caffeine todayl
