Saturday we went for a bike ride and stopped to watch the some dolphins in the bay. In the afternoon we repotted the plants that are on the balcony. The avocado trees were outgrowing their pots, so we got them new ones and moved all the little orange trees and poinciana’s up to bigger pots also.  Sunday hubby wasn’t felling well so we stayed home and watched movies all day.

I have been busy painting all week. I now have the living room done, next will be the bedroom and then I will be all done. I really like the color, it is a light olive/ tan color. I don’t know the name of it. Did I mention I don’t like tall ceilings? They are a pain in the neck.

I have been listening to Robinson Crusoe during my workouts. It is a download from iTunes. The girls and I just finished listening to Jane Eyre and then watched the movie on Netflix. The book was very good, but the movie was different and we didn’t enjoy it as much as the book.

We have gotten the girl’s curtains done and Bitty’s room painted. Bubba’s room is next on the list for painting. The living room curtains are done. The master bedroom curtains are next, they are up, but need to be hemmed. The paint we have for the master bedroom is a bit darker than we want, so we are trying to decide whether we want to get a new color.

We have been in the pool every day again this week. Yesterday we went to the library on the metro mover and stopped at CVS on the way home for milk. The girls love riding on the mover.

We went to the mall on Sunday instead of the beach. We were looking at iPods at the Apple store. My little iPod still works great so I can’t replace it yet, but I have been looking at one for hubby. The girls of course fell in love with the new iPod touch and decided they both need one.

Of course we didn’t work on getting the curtains done. I have Bubba’s curtains sewn and hemmed. I really miss having my sewing machine when doing curtains. Next up are Bitty’s curtains. The living room curtains are still hanging by a sting and nails. I can’t wait till the curtain rod is finally up for those.

We went to Chuck E Cheese after church on Sunday. The girls had a blast as usual.

We have been in the pool every day except for the weekend, it rained most of the weekend so no beach either.

I got some knitting done. I finished the shawl for Aunt Candy and a sweater for me.

We had cake when we got home. She had a hard time blowing out the candle since they were the ones that relight. She thought that was the funniest thing.

My sister called and we all got to talk to her for a little bit. She has been sick and thinks it is strep. It was so nice to be able to talk to her again. We really miss her and the phone call was a great blessing.

We have the movie Ratatouille now so that will be next this week on the next non TV night. Since we don’t get sci-fi channel here out TV watching has been cut down a bit. We have been watching a lot of old movies online also. We watched Victor/Victoria on Tuesday. The girls thought it was really funny.
