Eddies

Last night Nick and I went to this little old fashioned drive in called Eddie's Drive In. You pull up to the little garage (as I call it) and they wait on you with roller skates. It is a blast from the past! The food is great too. Sometimes we take the Chevelle there but last night we took Nick's truck. After we left there the weather was so beautiful out that we decided to go to the outdoor mall and walk around. There is an MJR theatre there and OMG the lines were so long for the opening of the new Harry Potter movie. Kids were dressed up and even adults were too. Among those people in line was Dominic and his friends. They got there at 7:30 to make sure they got tickets to the movie and then were just hanging out till midnight when the movie was showing. I am not a Harry Potter fan at all. Dominic always has been and I remember when the first movie came out taking him to see it and having to sit thru something I was not even interested in. I can't even tell you how many movies I have sat thru that I didn't want to see when my kids were younger. Now he is able to go himself... and I am so thankful for that. He was so excited like a kid. Colleen's niece just opened up a store at that mall selling dogs. They just got their shipmentof dogs in yesterday. They had 23 cute little puppies all over the place. They are selling each one for $1,200.00. I think that is alot of money in this economy. The thing with this mall is it is beautiful to walk thru and alot of things to do but I don't see many people carrying alot of bags. They have outdoor tables and big screen TVs. They also have an outdoor Bocci ball court. I just hope her niece does good there.

I have to tell you this. I have been sleeping like crap on and off for a few years. When Nick and I got married he decided he needs to sleep with the TV on. The whole time I lived alone I never once turned that TV on in my room. I would go to sleep at night in total SILENCE! I like it that way. I was telling Nick the other night I think that is why I have been sleeping like shit beccause of the TV being on. Since last week I have been turning it off the minute he falls asleep and I have been sleeping like a baby. He is not real happy about it but I certainly am. I get up at least once a night to go to the bathroom and then when I get back in bed if the TV is on then I start to watch it or listen to it which makes me not fall back asleep real fast. I love the silence!

Only 2 more days til KID ROCK!!!! I cannot wait! I found out last night that my niece is going to the same night. I told her we are gonna have to meet up and hang out. The concert is in Comerica Park downtown. Downtown Detroit in the summer has alot going on and it is FUN!

Have a good day everyone!
