I can't believe how much I'm into this show!  In fact I've even gotten Chelsea into it and we are both hoping next week she picks Jason.  But for anyone that knows Ron who works with my husband, would think that Jesse and he are brothers?

Not much going on today, and that's a good thing!
Joel did his usual working in the yard and Zach and I ran some errands this morning and then came back home to get some work done around here.
Then it was back indoors to work on some more cleaning... are you ever done? and some scrap projects.  I ran out to Cord Camera to pick up a few more things at their clearance sale - all of what I got was...

Wow, saw this over at Two Peas.

We've had these plans for months and yet it just didn't seem to work out for us.  It was going to be the Florida crew all camping for the weekend, it was going to be a blast.
But then these storms just kept coming and coming and the forecast was for MORE STORMS and we decided it just wasn't worth being cooped up in the trailer for the weekend during all these storms.  Luckily they let us move our...

Yep, its my birthday... the official one and so far my arms seem to be a bit lighter of poison ivy.  And my eye isn't swollen shut from the poison ivy

Before leaving for work Joel left me a card and the confirmation letter for my new lens and filter.  It should be here tomorrow!!!!
This morning I will be off celebrating my birthday...

it was mostly uneventful.  A day home doing some paperwork for the business and cleaning up around the house for the first half of the day. 
Then the second half of the day we spent running some errands, dropping Zach off over a friends and Chelsea and I headed out to Trish's for the huge garage sale.  Chelsea thought she could find some cool things for her dorm, so off we went.
We figured...

to my birthday and I hope I'm feeling a whole lot better by then?  My arms are still covered with poison ivy and its even gone so far as to my face now!  Yuck!
I got this pretty good feeling that Joel ordered my wide angle lens for my birthday, since he was asking lots of questions about it, although I have to admit he was quite shocked at the price?
We are supposed to go camping with a big group...

So why oh why do I watch this show???  I was actually looking forward to tonight's episode and I really liked the four guys she was down to, but oh my don't ya just love Graham!!  Oh should I say didn't you, because he's gone... and while I don't blame her, he acted like such a jerk but yet you could see such chemistry between them?  Who knows???  At least I got some paper work done...

Starts off with a trip to the dentist for both Zach and I.  I have some unfinished work to be done and Zach will begin the prep for his braces which will go on before high school begins.
I need to work on some serious cleaning around the house
play with my kit from Work in Progress (though never enough time)
Work out with Chelsea if I get back in time
Work on some party plans for the...

...that's what this weekend was about.  Joel wants to go camping July 4th weekend and I said we need the long weekend home to work in our yard.  Do I need to remind him we are having a graduation party in a few weeks?
So my compromise was to go camping this weekend in exchange for having the 4th home to work on whatever it is we need to finish.  Like the turn around which we have been talking...
