The Not so Darling House

heidimouse67

handled. When we go out for Ladies night we ALWAYS stay at least 2 hours. We order appetizers, main meals, drinks, coffee, and dessert. We talk and laugh and have a GREAT time. We had been at The Darling House for maybe 1.5 hours when we noticed an older man standing very close to our table, pretending to watch the tv, but mostly glaring at us, giving us nasty looks and commenting loudly about how long we were taking. At the 1.5 hour mark we were just finishing up o [...]

Sex Offender living near Sandhurst Park

heidimouse67

I just wanted to get the word out that there is a registered sex offender living right next to Sandhurst Park (corner of Indiana and Bethesda). He may actually be in jail right now, but he is registered as living near the park. Unfortunately, the law says they can not live with 1000 feet of schools or child care centers but there is nothing about parks. So if you go to that park, keep a close eye on your kids and watch out for strange men.

A good deed never goes unpunished

heidimouse67

bsp; Yes, gone. Most of the decorations had fallen off and broken but the town employees saved what they could. Three strands of lights, 180 bulbs, were gone. My mother-in-law said she hopes that someone who needed lights for their house because they couldn't afford them took them. I guess I'm not in a very charitable mood because I doubt it. I think whoever did it was just trying to be mean and spiteful. An unhappy person who wants to make every [...]

A great party

heidimouse67

n that said "Happy Birthday Ryan - Welcome." That was really cool! I was very impressed by that.

As the kids arrived I had them decorate a bucket to put their gems in. Once everyone arrived BJ came out to talk to them about the various gems they would find. She was incredible with the kids, so much patience! Then it was time to start panning for gems! The kids were so excited about everything they found. And BJ was right there maki [...]

The Spa at Pinehurst

heidimouse67

is 1 spot on my feet that is very ticklish. Then I have a pinky toe that was broken and hurts just enough to be annoying when she did the massage. Then there is the big toe that supposedly didn't break but it still hurt just enough to be annoying when she massaged it. And finally, just for this special occasion, I had 2 fire ant bites that still hurt. One on my ankle that didn't really hurt that much but worried me enough that I couldn't relax. The [...]

Movie Theater pet-peeve

im, the ads turned off and then the mess began. For at least 5 (probably closer to 10) minutes the lights went up and down, and off completely one time. The sound for the movie started, then stopped because there was no video showing. The video for the ads started again, then stopped. The sounds for the ads started then stopped. All of this went on over and over again. FINALLY the movie starts, the sound is working and the lights have been dimmed.&nb [...]

Please Donate Blood

heidimouse67

For the past few months I have been seeing in The Pilot that the Red Cross needs blood. In particular they are at Emergency levels of O-negative and at Critical levels for A-negative. I am A-negative and knew that I should get over there and donate but kept putting it off. Finally, last Friday, I called and made an appointment for Monday. I spent a good part of the weekend stressing over it – I have donated before and it always hurts me. I usually bruise pr [...]

SpringFest

heidimouse67

My favorite event in Moore County is the Southern Pines SpringFest. There is so much going on, so much to see and so much food to eat! We have been going for 5 years and have a routine. We break up the day into 3 parts: Kids area, Bike race and mommy shopping time.

Multiple blocks of down-town Southern Pine are blocked off for the event. One street is fi [...]

Boy clothes variety

heidimouse67

Anyone who has a boy knows that finding interesting (can't really say cute) boys clothes is really hard. Girl clothes? No problem. Boys clothes are either boring and inexpensive or interesting and expensive. A friend of mine suggested I check out Lil Branches. She swore they had some nice boy clothes that were not too expensive.

If you ha [...]

Colors N Clay PJ Party

heidimouse67

Last night Ryan went to the PJ Party at Colors N Clay. He had the best time!!! He was very excited about it all week and couldn’t wait (a lot of the excitment stemming from the fact he could wear his PJs which he LOVES to do!) . He had a friend that was supposed to go with him who got sick and couldn’t make it. I thought he would not want to go but, no, he was still excited! We walked in and were jus [...]

A trip to the museum

heidimouse67

In early November 2006 my son (now 6) and I took a trip to the Museum of Life and Science in Durham. We had been to the museum once before when he was about 2 and many things have changed since then. The first time we went to the Museum was specifically to ride the train. Ryan was absolutely Thomas the Tank engine crazy. Someone had told me about the museum and the train so I thought it would be a nice trip. Unfortuna [...]

First ever blog

heidimouse67

Welcome to my first blog ever!

I have never written a blog before. I have written a million letters, sent a billion e-mails, but never written a blog. Which, I guess, is a little surprising since I have been a computer geek since I was in high school. It seems that the key is to have a topic to write about yet that seems like the hardest part! What would be of interest to the moms on this website? Rollie seems to cover all the topics of interest and does th [...]
