Willie Nelson concert!


Well from my postings this week you can imagine what i have done. Yes, I've had my TV on CNN and other news stations almost 24/7. I am not usually one who is consumed with politics and i am not one who will post my views. But i have found recently, it has fired up the flaming soul i have. Anyway, last night i finally put all that aside and a friend I've met had free tickets to see Willie Nelson and asked if i wanted them. Of course i jumped at these tickets. My husband use to sing Willie all the time, he is a huge fan.

Yesterday afternoon i got dressed, packed my over night bag and we headed to see Willie Nelson. He was at the Hard Rock Casino in Biloxi, MS. We spent the night for free at the Hard Rock. It was a great night! Willie put on a great show, it was a sold out event. After the show, i decide to waste a few dollars in the machines. The high roller i am, i put in $20 bucks and cashed out with $35.75, so hey i made a $15.75 investment. Then i decided to walk around and tour the grounds some. I sure wish i hadn't forgotten to pack my camera. Willie and his crew were loading up their buses and Willie was signing autograph's of course, i had no pen or paper so i missed out. But i did get to briefly say hi and shake his hand. Willie and his crew had 4 or 5, i can't remember buses, all alike. It was a great night after such a ruff week.

I am now back inside of Ms. Southwind and it feels so good to be back home. I found that even in fancy casino's i just don't sleep like i do inside of Ms. Southwind. The weather here is just beautiful! The mornings & evenings are bit cool, but a sweat shirt solves that. The daytime is beautiful, the door is open and sitting outside and exploring is great in this kind of weather. Today, I'm going to start walking again, sitting outside, do some reading & embroidery and enjoy life as i can. I've decided to stop watching the news, stop watching and worrying about our economy crumbling. I'm going to do what I've always wanted to do before becoming a full - timer and have been doing the past 19 months. I'm going to enjoy each day for what it is and pray that tomorrow will be another beautiful day in the full time life style.

That i better enjoy my life now, as you never know what tomorrow may bring. Yes, i will watch the evening news as i did before this past week, but I'm not going to let it consume me as it has this week. Come election day, I haven't decided if i will cast my vote for president, as i honestly can not and feel that neither of these men are the right person for the job. They both slapped we the voters in the face and neither of them have a spine. Normally, i would vote, as I've believed that it's our duty to vote. I am not sure i feel this way anymore. I am not sure that my vote even matters. I know my opinion's don't when it comes to those who represent us.

Have a great day and I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! Try to behave of course if your like me, trouble is my middle name ... Until later .........
