January 14th to January 20th 2013




January 14th  to  January 20th 2013



January 14th   Monday
It was another cool Monday morning, Waiting for some sun to shine, but really don't know if it will happen.
The cold along with the Texas Krud, is making me miserable.  I just want to stay healthy so I can go on the cruise and have fun... We took a ride today to Goose Island State Park for something to do.. Showed Ron and Eileen the BIG TREE and we drove around the campground in The State park..








January  15th  Tuesday
Got up early and I think I seen some sunshine,   Today we have a HOC luncheon, in Fulton at Charlotte Plumbers.  We had a nice turnout again and everyone was having another good time.









I had their salad bar and tortilla soup.  Yummy... Some had their famous bread pudding for dessert.  Just as we were getting done with our meal, there was a oyster boat coming in, so I went out side to take some pictures.  A 100 lb. of fresh oysters off the boat cost $30.00 dollars.. Now this is a deal for oyster lovers.


After luncheon we went to Kohl's in Corpus to buy a Keurig coffee maker. Eileen had a 20% coupon off at Kohl's which she shared with us..  Now it is going to be fun to figure out how to use it. We most likely will use it for afternoon and after dinner coffee.  In the morning, Dan makes a full pot and then we drink most of that in the morning.  Another new toy for us....




January 16th  Wednesday

Dan went to coffee with the boys and then they went to corpus for their shopping day.. they had lunch at BBQ man. I did some straighting in the closet trying to find what clothes I have that fit me for the cruise.  I got some laundry together also..  I ordered some Takeya pitchers like what Barb and Ralph have.  They look great and they are spill proof, can lay them on their side in the refrigerator. I went to the laundromat and washed my clothes and then came home and made a light dinner.. 



January  17th  Thursday
I had been awake since 4 O'clock AM coughing. So, I decided it was a good time to get up and sit in my chair.
It is a nice day today. Sun shining, had a hard time getting my eyes adjusted.
Went to Corpus at bed Bath and Beyond.  Had coupons for Keurig accessories..  Went to HEB Plus and bought some more pork that was on sale.   Gene and Linda came over for Happy Hour..

Went to get hair cut.I found the gal that had been cutting my hair down here, she moved to another shop... So I went and got my hair trimmed up.

 Had left over pulled pork for dinner and then went to Ron and Eileen for dessert.



January  18th  Friday
It was a bit warmer this morning. The sun was shining brightly.. Dan had another piece of pork that he had seasoning in the refrig and he put it in the crockpot and cooked it for dinner tonight.
Oh another morning breakfast with HOC friends.. At Alice Faye's.





 Afterwards we came home and picked up Mr. Herbie and took him for a ride to Portland to pick up our mail.  He sure likes to go for his rides in the truck.  We came back and I walked Herbie. He sure enjoyed his walks.  Gene and Linda came over for pulled pork sandwiches and the guys talked about what day will be a good fishing day.

January 19th  Saturday
Another nice day is upon us.  51 degrees at 7AM,  Sun shining brightly at 8 AM.. This morning is a pancake and sausage breakfast at the park. We thought that we would try it.  I am beginning to feel lots better and that makes me happy. After breakfast it was so nice, I suggested that we pack up the kids and get a small cooler and chairs and head for the beach.. We went to The National Seashore Beach.  It as really nice out,  When we got there we unleashed the dogs and they had such a great time chasing each other around on the beach.. they wore each other out.
 Eileen checking for shells
 Dan getting some feet sun
Ron Sleep Reading
Lots of Jellyfish on beach
Eileen and I walked the beach, and Dan laid in the sun, Ron was napping and reading a book.  I even got some good sun on me.  I was happy for that as my new dress will look better with some color.

We decided that we will come back drop off the kids and then go out to Pepitos for dinner.. It was really good.   It was a good day!!

January  20th  Sunday

Another nice Sunny morning was welcomed again..  I made Dan breakfast, and we enjoyed the morning..  Dan went and prepared the rest of the pork that he had left and made some more pulled pork with a different recipe.  Linda and Gene came over for dinner and they brought a HOT Apple Pie.  Otherwise it was a quiet end to another week..
