Welcome to our regular schedule of posts... from mom's laptop. Mom's laptop is kind of old and she barely uses it. It's mainly purpose in our lifes is to store all our pictures. There are thousands of them, so many that the computer has been running very slow for years. But it has accomplished it's main purpose with pride, so I thought it would be nice of us to upgrade its use for our blogging needs.
About 10 days ago, more exactly Friday of the previous week, mom and dad went to have dinner to a place that is 5 minutes away from home. It is a Marina and it is very very beautiful except for the fact that it doesn't allow ME.
A few weeks before, mom and dad went to the boat show. Dad's dream is to have a boat so that they can enjoy Florida's beautiful ocean and go fishing (ewwww, says mom). This is what he would like to have:
This is what mom and dad can afford to have:
They have live music almost every day. With the music and the view, mom always feels as if she was on vacation.
Even though the restaurant's specialty is fish and seafood, mom has found this place to have very good options for people "allergic" to those things.
Mom ordered a sandwich with blackened chicken breast, bacon, avocado and she doesn't remember what else because she was drinking beer. But she does remember it was very good. The fries were good, too.
Once they finished, they had to go back to reality. There are a few things in the house that someway need to find a "place".
Obviously, I don't see us having a boat in the near future, because the one they can afford doesn't have air conditioning.
NO AIR CONDITIONING = UNCOMFORTABLE PUG = NO BOAT
Well, back to the restaurant where they had dinner. People get here either by car, boat or bicycle.

So mom and dad devoted the whole weekend (not this last weekend, but the previous one) working in the house. There are no pictures of me because I spent the whole weekend wearing my pj's.
Mom also cooked, it relaxes her. Mom and dad like to eat well, as in delicious. Well, lately they are trying to match delicious with healthy, as long as it doesn't compromise taste. Did I mention that my mom is fat?

Oh I can't get over how gorgeous you home is. I love it there! I wish I were there.
Thanks for the compliments on my blog. I actually created the banner using photobucket.com's scrapblog. It has templates you can use or you can start from scratch (I started from scratch). It's a lot of fun and fairly easy. Check it out. I did the signature myself too working in photobucket.com.
Oooooo...great pictures! We think we see a Florida vacation at some point in our future ;-)
Pug hugs and kisses!

We want to live in a warm paradise like you do! Except with 24/7 air conditioners because I am a double-coated pug (and very sensitive to the heat). Beautiful!!

Ohhh, one look at that Corona and those french fries, and I almost hopped in my car to come to Florida! YUMMM!
Your mom's dinner looked super yummy!
Your mommy is not fat at all Coco!
I know we have been trying to eat healthy as well but it is very expensive.
Mmmm...we live on the ocean too, but we don't have many nice marina type restaurants by us. It is nice to go sometimes, though. Usually if we want the marina experience we go down to my parents' house and catch blue crabs off their dock and eat them. Yum!!
The food pictures are gorgeous, by the way.
p.s. your mom is NOT fat!!
