Wave Walkers...at the Mall---

Before the shoppers arrived one morning, on another damp and wet, rainy day...in order to get my daily walking in, Bud and I ventured into the larger mall in town. Being early, the stores were not open. For us seniors, and others in different age groups, walking the mall is a membership if you wish. We're called Wave Walkers around here in Corpus. As we walked, we window shopped, trying to keep our pace rapid. I just had to stop this one time!! I saw this. I can see myself purchasing him this bargain. "And to think", I told Bud in jest..."I can get myself another treat at half off!". Bud just smiled and kept walking. Then, ahead of me, as I was wiping my drool off the glass store window with a tissue, licking my lips from the candy display, Bud had stopped, and was gazing at something of interest. As I was catching up to him I secretly wished the stores would have these semi-annual sales monthly! Good thing tho, probably, my heart couldn't take the pounding sales like that all that much. But I sure could mix and match with ease.


So, I catch up with him. He found payback something that caught his eye for sure I bet. If this was his way of telling me he could play the game with me...I'll give him that! But I put the hipper dipper on his morning when I said to him "How nice!" His proud shoulders dropped then, and we moved on. But, not without getting a photo of Bud...see his reflection in the window, by the R and T in the word heart? I swear he was watering at the mouth over this display. Heck, what goes best with candy that'll melt in your mouth? You're right! "Got Milk?" That really made him more grumpy. Off we went...doing more window shopping as we walked our hour away.........





Come, walk with us as we get our exercising in for the day---










When our time walking was coming to a close, Bud took this last photo asking me to make a wish at the center fountain...betcha can't guess what I wished for that very day? More candy perhaps? I'll never tell!!!

This past Friday I found in my comments a special gift for me. Anne passed this Beautiful Blogger Award on to me. I'm always very humbled that other bloggers and blogging peers show me they enjoy Hootin' Anni's!! It brings me much joy. I want to thank Anne from the bottom of my heart. You certainly made my day.






I'm now obligated to list seven things about me:

1] Roses are my favorite flower
2] Purple is one of my favorite colors
3] I still want to slide into a room when I hear "Gimme that Ol' Time Rock and Roll"
4] I love to find objects created in cloud formations
5] I love making my own tortillas from scratch
6] One of my favorite lines in the movie JAWS is: "You're gonna need a bigger boat." [Chief Brody]
7] At the drop of a hat, if someone told me it's free living...I'd move to England.

ALSO NOTE for Firefox Browser patrons: I just upgraded my browser to FF 3.6; after installing and opening browser, the first window was FF Personas. I've not heard of them before. Maybe 'cause I have never taken the time to check everything out. With the note upon the completion of installing the upgrade, I clicked on the link and found this!! There is over 3000 browser PERSONAS!!! I just changed mine to a St. Patrick's Day theme. What fun...so much to choose from and so little time to peruse them all!! BEGIN HERE
