Yes, I finally got a little bit of sleep last night. I hate waking up with something that makes no sense. I get an alert every time my Discover card is used and I got a $5 charge this morning from a bar we went to in TN. The only problem is that it is today's date and we haven't been in TN. Weird. It is a pending charge so it may just be a mistake and fall off like the $1 charge I get from Sam's every time I buy gas. I know I will keep an eye on it; hopefully, nothing else comes through.

Skipped my steps yesterday and since my leg (and now my knee) is still bothering me, I think I will skip it today too. Although I am thinking about doing the yard work. Going to let Ken help out if he offers. See? This o'l dog is learning.

Hope everyone has a wonderful Friday. Any exciting plans for the weekend? None here but with me, you never know. I am definitely learning to be flexible with Ken. He is not even close to being as structured as I am and that is probably a good thing.

    Good morning all. We did not mow yesterday. Instead, we went riding which was way more fun. heehee He wanted to take his chopper out. Yes, the one where I ride on the fender. He did cut me a piece of thick, black foam rubber for me to sit on and it helped immensely. All I can say is I like riding my bike more.

    My aunt got her well fixed from where she backed into it with her lawn mower. Bless her heart. She said she was going to put up a little fence around the well so that did not happen again. I do not have a fence around that clothesline pole I hit and I never get anywhere near it.

    Some accidents, you just learn from.

    Went to a new place to eat last night and they had a band too. The burger was not bad but I doubt I ask to go back there. I liked the tater tots but Ken said they were too spicy. To me, they were just too greasy.

    Nothing planned for today really so I guess I will just play it by ear. I do have laundry to do again. Sheesh! I definitely have more now.

    Hope everyone has a nice day. :wub:

    Good afternoon ladies :wub:

    Glad you had a fun ride, Rat2. I’d probably put up a lil fence too at least for a little while.

    Enjoy the weekend with Bela, Dale!

    The boys went to the Sabres hockey game. I spent the day cleaning. Tomorrow everyone is meeting up after the football game for dinner to celebrate SIL and kiddo’s upcoming bdays.

    Hope everyone is having a good day!

    It was another great weekend for me. It's sort of funny for someone who does not drink to spend so much time at bars.

    I honestly did not know there were so many bars around. Someone mentions a particular place that I have never heard of and you know I want to check it out.

    We did finally go out a a regular kind of date Saturday night. We went to my favorite restaurant Bonbon's. I had been telling him how much I loved their baby back ribs. I was so relieved when he said I had been right and we would be coming back. Whew! If he had not liked them, that might have been a deal breaker.

    Yesterday we went back to our regular Sunday bar that always has a live band. I did not play any cornhole this time but still had a great time. Last night one of the bars had a bunch of free food and it was so good. Someone told us about another place that I had never heard of so we left and went there. It was awesome. The people were very nice. They had two guys playing who were amazing. I love watching people play.

    The best part was they had the most comfortable couch and this man had a big dog whose name was Boudreaux. He cuddled up beside me and slept. Every time I stopped rubbing him, he would look up at me until I started rubbing him again. The owner said he was spoilt rotten and I believe it. I loved it though. Ken said he was jealous because every time he would go outside to smoke, I would stay and I always follow him.

    We were on his chopper last night. (my .... sure did miss mine) but it was kind of nice because I cannot tell you how many people came up and said something about it. There were even people that asked him if they could take a picture of it. You really do not see that many choppers around here. I can't remember if I posted a pic of it here but here it is again. It is a Spencer Bowman motorcycle. They are actually manufactured close to here.

    The yard work got postponed due to the weather. It was perfect for riding this weekend. It does not even bother me. It will get done. I just did laundry and I have another load to do this morning. Now that bothers me a tiny bit.

    It now does not bother me that I had to make Dad put on clean clothes. He would have worn the same thing all week if I would have let him. heehee

    Another long post from The Rat. Sorry.

    Good evening lurkers :wub:

    Wow, Rat2, Dale took the words right out of my typing thumbs (on my phone lol) That sure is some bike and I agree….no way would I want to ride the fender. :oops: Lol Sounds like you are having the time of your life and I’m jealous of all the free food at these places.

    Soccer game, we won 6-0. Late dinner of yogurt with flax seed and a banana. Boys picked up subway. $19 for two footlongs, no chips or drinks just the subs. Gone are the days of the $5/footlong I guess. I don’t like it there so I was happy with my choice and I go to the dr for my annual tomorrow, don’t need any extra water weight. :laugh:

    Off to catch some tv before bed. Sweet dreams :wub:
