Today was planned to be a go kind of day, but it ended up a go-go kind of day instead! I don't really like go-go days! They are very confusing and tiring at the same time. Now, I know why I prefer to stay at home---I don't like being confused and tired! Wow! Imagine that!
A local theater is showing free movies every Tuesday and Wednesday for the summer. This was a great deal of fun, and Seth was very excited. We do not go to many movies, so this was a real treat. The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything was playing this week. We have not seen this one, I must say, it was really good. I would recommend it to anyone, any age. Of course, the message this movie communicated was wonderful, so rent it or buy it or go see it in a summer theater somewhere--you will not be sorry.
I think the go-go part came when I had to go to Michael's Art Supply twice today for a 66 cent bottle of paint for a picture frame I am working on. I could not get the color right-even then! I ended up using some paint that I had here all along, and it (the frame) looks fine, but I wasted a lot of gasoline and some money in the process! Sheesh!
Then I thought I would treat my son, Seth, to a little lunch at Taco Bell. This is one of the few places where he will actually request and eat what he requested. "2 soft tacos with no lettuce and a medium Pepsi, please". The medium drink is because he knows I will drink about half of it before we get home. I thought that was a nice (cheap) treat, but then Seth started hinting he would like some ice cream-- --so I went to a little place that his daddy always takes him to for a blueberry twisted soft ice cream--small. Somehow, we ended up with a large--I thought the price was a little high. I was in the drive thru, so I just went home with a very happy son and a lighter wallet. 
Anyway, not much work got done around the Beale Bungalow today, but I guess that is ok, too! I did fix Donnie one of his favorite meals--Fried Pork Chops, homemade macaroni and cheese and baby butterbeans. Yep, the way to a man's heart is his stomach! Donnie loved it! He is at a men's prayer group meeting tonight. Seth is at Vacation Bible School, so I didn't have to plan any activities for our usual Two Hour Tuesday--everyone is gone. I am not complaining--the quiet is nice.
Well, I am going to go outside and enjoy the evening........
God Bless!!
