My night didn't consist of too much. I went to the grocery store and was amazed at the price. Here's what I bought for $43.17. Not much in my opinion. I am still in search of the perfect low-calorie salad dressing and feel like I always will be. I have a very unforgiving palate and the taste of fat-free dressings are awful to me. If you know of a salad dressing that's low-calorie or low-fat and it actually tastes good, let me know!
After the store, M and I watched movies. I watched Definitely Maybe by myself and then we watched Appaloosa until I feel asleep.
Saturday:
What a beautiful day! The temperature reached 61 degrees and it was a perfect day to go for a walk. I walked through the backyard to the paved path that runs through our yard. I walked for about 2.5 miles and it was awesome just to enjoy the nature and weather. I also went to Rosedale to use a few coupons I had for JCPenney. I had 3 $10 coupons that you didn't have to spend any minimum and could be combined so I bought a some clothes for work for spring/summer. I took a nap and then Tanya came over and we went out to meet some friends for Heather's birthday at the Legion in WBL for karaoke night. Since I am an awesome singer and probably would have blew everyone out of the water with my pipes, I decided to sit out and not participate. It really just would have been embarrassing for everyone else so I know it was the right decision. After the Legion, Tanya and I went across the highway to White Bear Bar. Of course we saw numerous people from high school as we expected to. WBL is a weird place and people who live there just stick around forever and frequent the same places.

Sunday:
Again, a beautiful day with the same temperature as Saturday but boy was it windy! I went for a walk again on the same path and this time brought my camera. I took pictures of everything while I was walking because everything was beautiful to me and I was just so happy to be alive. I said hi to everyone I passed with a huge smile because life is good! M got home around 7 pm after being at his cabin and we relaxed and ended the weekend watching the last installment of our Dirty Harry series. We watched Dirty Harry about a month ago and watched the remaining 4 movie sequels throughout the month and ended with The Dead Pool last night. M has always been a fan of Clint Eastwood and I guess I am now too.
I can't remember what these things are called. Milk something?
2 ducks in the pond
Can you see the male and female ducks amongst all the junk and trash?
I wanted to take a picture of this powerline. It was so mighty looking and with the sound of the electricity sizzling through the lines, it's intimidating.

love nature walks, can't wait for my first one of the year soon!
It was fun to see you and Tanya, I am glad you girls came out :)
Hey, I ditched the WBL! There is a large population though that just can't get out of there. I love the city and have fond memories, but the local dives are just not for me! Especially since I don't want a WBL reunion every weekend!
I think they are called milkweed and I think monarch's feed on them. We also enjoyed the weather, but who didn't this weekened, right? I think you should have sang. Karaoke is fun, even if you suck!
Sounds like a good time with the girls...surprising. Once it starts drying up outside, I'll have to take the boys over to do that walk too - they'd love it.
