And although the story was good, I hated the way it ended!

Day 76

And no leftovers, no temptations later.

Day 71

March 11, 2012

I had problems downloading my pictures from my camera to the computer, so many are gone, including many from our Disney trip.  : (

Today was a "catch up" day...a day to do laundry, as it can pile up after being gone for over a week.

But my picture, will have to be a picture taken on a different day.


All of this needed to be washed and put away.

Part of the enjoyment of being at at Disney park is the searching for "Hidden Mickey's"
