Visiting my parents today.
I could tell that mom wasn't quite alright yet - it is a hard one, recovering from heart problems, but she was better than a few days ago, so that's definitely a positive thing.
We relaxed and had fun, dad and me even made mom laugh several times, until she started joining in on the joking - then we all had a blast for the rest of the day.

Dad and I went to one of the...whatarethatkindofshopcalledinenglishagain...*thinks*...you buy plants and garden stuff there...*shrugs*...anyway, dad bought me 6 very nice plants for my window boxes, three white and three purple ones, and we drove them home to me.
Afterwards, we did a little shopping for my folks, and then we went back home, where I washed the car and cleaned it thoroughly inside. Later, we had dinner, and relaxed.
Then I went home and planted my plants in my balcony boxes, and now I'm relaxing online before going to bed early, and tomorrow I'm going to pick up that Hans-Ulrich Rudel-book at the library.
 
Been out of the loop for a few days. Glad to read your Mother is doing better Maria, I'll keep her in my prayers.

Feeling better after thinking I was going to keel over this past Saturday.
 
Had to cancel our boat-rental/wakeboarding trip today, due to weather (oh, darn....I don't care much for boats/wakeboarding, anyway, but don't tell my wife). Went to the air museum instead, they've gotten in a new C-47 since I was last there, and found out that when "Fifi" (B-29) is certified to fly again, she'll be stopping by Cavanaugh Flight Museum, probably sometime in the fall. Can't wait to see her up close and personal!

Afterwards, drove over to Fort Worth, and my brother and I took my wife and his fiancee to a gun store/range. First time either of the wimmin-folk had ever been shooting. Both frikkin LOVED it! Brother's fiancee bought a Walther P-22 pistol (in a pink/grey pattern, of course), and my wife almost talked me into one as well, but due to the fact that they fly back to Italy tomorrow (she's Italian, he's stationed there in the Army), they're going to have to leave it with us, here, so we'll hold off getting one of our own until they come back to claim theirs. She loved the range, though, so we'll probably take it out to *ahem* ensure its maintained and in good working condition.

Heh. My wife also wants to take a couple of gun safety courses, and a concealed weapon course. Man...that's just awesome!
 
Maria.
Good news about your Mum, you sound to have had a good day a couple of days back and if I'm right, that "whatarethatkindofshopcalledinenglishagain..." is a Garden Centre.

Karl.
Glad to hear you are now officially the boss man, now you can really get them cooking. hope it all goes well for you.

As for me:

The 'Color pics For a Model I'm Building' thread almost as funny as 'Blazing Saddles'............
