It's Tuesday, and that means it's time for the fantastic fun of Random Tuesday Thoughts. Link up your randomness at

It's been a month and a half since my mother passed. It's still not totally real to me. Although I'm better these last couple of weeks than I had been, the grief is still so raw and so hard. People have moved on with their lives. I have too, but it's different. It's overwhelming sometimes, and there's a hole in my heart.
I'm not asking for a pity party by any means, but I absolutely know how someone feels when they say they think of someone every day.
Maybe it's more in my head than anything, but I hate how people expect that I should be the same. I should be back to normal. I'm not. And I can't say when I will be.

Jason was kind enough to purchase me a set of used golf clubs the other day. One time on the golf course and we're hooked! We had the opportunity to go again Saturday morning with another couple. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I'd take golf up as a hobby.

Jason cooking chicken legs and potatoes on the grill
Saturday evening we went to Whispering Oaks (a local campground) and spent the night with another couple in their camper.
We were very sketchy at first about going up there. Whispering Oaks was our second home for five years, and I've seen stuff happen up there that would put most reality shows to shame. Days of Our Lives ain't got nothing on them!
We gave it up a couple years ago when we realized it was becoming Peyton's Place. But, after some coaxing from our friends, we decided to check it out again.
Didn't win a darn thing at Bingo
I actually had a good time at the campground. We ate a ton of food, played Bingo, and danced to a live band. What made it different this time is that we chose not to be a part of anybody's problems. A lot of the same people are still up there and so is a lot of the drama but I think us being outsiders this time around made it much easier.
I have NO plans on hanging out there every weekend like we used to, but I'm okay with going up once in a while.
I can't dance to save my soul, but I like to pretend I got some moves. The band videoed a couple of their songs and put 'em on Facebook. With me being front and center, my bad moves are now on social media for the whole world to see. (Don't ask, I'm not giving up the link or the band name. I have my integrity to protect!)

Memorial Day food
Memorial Day we hung out with some friends for a low-key supper. I ate my fair share of food. Then we went to the field and did some target shooting with our guns.

How did I live without Hulu before now?
We have country cable because I'm too tight to pay high prices to watch TV. I signed up for a free week of
Hulu and now I'm hooked. I can watch all the latest episodes of shows, and it's way cheaper than what the cable company charges. Not that I have anything against Netflix, but I like Hulu in that I can stream a ton of TV shows the day after they've aired on television.
My current binge watch is Real Housewives of New York City. Goes to show that even rich, semi-famous, middle-aged gals got a whole slew of problems all their own.

What did you do Memorial Day weekend? Do you have Hulu? What's your randomness for the week?
