Party Gras time ....
On to other things today. Being I'm from Louisiana, the south of the state will be partying it up this weekend all in celebration of Mardi Gras. New Orleans has been rocking for weeks now gearing up for Fat Tuesday. And for anyone who's never been to Mardi Gras, you can't begin to imagine what it's like unless you are THERE! It is all you've ever heard or seen plus a whole lot more. I don't live in New Orleans and would never want to but where I do live, we have a pretty good time when we make it out for Mardi Gras here in town. As I am typing this, I am hearing music off in the distance, people talking, crowds singing, lots of cars passing by, many pedestrians are out on the streets today looking for a good spot on the parade route. I am home alone at the moment and don't have the envie' to watch a parade. Maybe if my son were here with me I would. He's with his dad for 5 days since they have no school because of the holiday. I really miss him already and I'm only on day 2 of his absence.
