New music is coming from Brett Eldredge

It has now been 2 years since Brett Eldredge has put out a new album. The last one was 2022's "Songs About You". Also, the last time he had a top 30 song was 2020. Let's hope all of that changes when he releases his next album that he is currently working on.

No other details are known at this time and he has been taking an extended break from social media as well. We look forward to seeing what comes from this next album and hope it has a lot of success for Brett Eldredge!

National Ice Cream Month

What is your favorite ice cream flavor? Mine growing up was always Mint Chocolate Chip. Since I am older now, I would say that has changed. I still LOVE Mint Chocolate Chip, but I feel "safer" to explore more interresting flavors these days.

I always have liked regular Chocolate and Vinilla - maybe a twist of the two! I enjoy Rocky Road, and Cookie Dough as well. I will also choose a flavor that has some peanuts or almonds in it as well - unless it has coconut. I cannot eat coconut in any way, shape, or form.

Speaking in terms of local shops...a couple of favorites of mine at Pav's Creamery include Birthday Cake and Cookie Monster. Needless to say, I love Ice Cream! Happy Ice Cream month!

Do I have to go to work today?

Don't get me wrong at all...I LOVE my job. I have dreamed of having a job like this for years. No matter what you do or how well you enjoy your job, we all have those days where we ask "Do I REALLY need to go to work today?"

Today was that day for me. I took Buttercup in for his vet appointment early this afternoon to get his Glucose checked (he's all good) and then when I got home, I sat down in my recliner in my sunroom. The windows in the house were all open, there was no humidity and I didn't even need the fan on to be comfortable!

I took a little nap and it was awesome! I woke up around 4:30 and it was time to leave for work. Except I would have been just as happy had I been able to stay there in my chair enjoying the afternoon air a few more hours. Here I am though and it IS Friday! Enjoy your weekend!

Happy Gotcha Day!

Today, I celebrate the 5th Gotcha Day for my cat Butercup. It was on July 18, 2019 that my ex Vinnie and I adopted Buttercup and welcomed him into our home.

The night before I had finished working a shift here at work and when I got home, I pulled into the driveway and noticed Buttercup sitting by the front door. My headlights scared him, but I went inside and told my ex to grab some food and water and let's go back outside. We did, and found him hiding under the car. He was very easily coaxed out by the food and we sat petting him for about an hour. Then it was time to call it a night.

The next afternoon, we saw him in the backyard, and my ex said "I'm going to grab him and bring him inside". So he did, and we took him to the vet the next day. He checked out perfectly healthy and no chip, so we decided to adopt him as a friend to our other cat at the time. 

Five years, two health scares, and three of his nine lives later, Buttercup is still stealing our hearts all the time. Even though my ex Vinnie doesn't see him everyday anymore, We are in contact all the time about funny things Buttercup does or talking about his health conditions.

I TOTALLY didn't mean for this to turn out this long, but I love Buttercup so much and it's his pet version of a birthday!

"I challenge you to a duel"

Kane Brown recently challenged Jason Aldean to a competitive game of Golf.

The two have had a back and forth playful jab-session about each other's Golf game going for some time and now it appears Kane is ready to get serious! He said he challenges Jason Aldean to a game any day for any amount of money!

Wouldn't it be cool if they decided to settle this at the WQMX Golf outing and donated the money to Bosom Buddies?!
