Went to Swing Vote. I would give it two stars. It was just ok. Went out to dinner and had pasta with shrimp, suasage, and chicken, and veg's in a garlic cream sauce. Yum! Only ate about 1/3 of it.

nothing is new just more confusion and chaos daily

but b12 helps

When hurricane Dolly was heading for the Texas/ Mexico border I looked on a map to see where Mexico City was. All my geography teachers would be disappointed in me as I didn't realize you were next door until I saw a map.

Given a chance she said she would go on another missions trip in a heartbeat. None are in the works but who knows what tomorrow will bring.
************************************************** *
DD's evening went- Mexico story time, a long hug for the dog, show and much more tell, then time to tickle the (piano) ivories...

All is right in my little corner of the world. <sigh> Wonder who sleeps the best tonight me or DD?

see yall in the morn


peace

did a pair of slammers... mah back was achy after inadvisedly lifting a 40 lb tub of animal feed...



I get tired of the "helpless female" role, and I was out of rabbit pellets in my dispenser... argh, silly me !!



long day, running errands, doing payroll (just 2 employees, but still, can't forget it, or fork it up, ya know?)



then, the stress/excitement of learning to use this "new" computer.



it's my very first LAPTOP in my life, AND, my very first NON-Mac ever...



unless you count the Commodore back in, what, 1983?



add in my cogfog, and my embarrassingly slow learning curve, and well, me and hubby almost had our very first argument.



even after 4 years of seeing my MS in full bloom, he still expects me to be the brightest crayon in the box, and the sharpest knife in the drawer.



well, I ain't, not any more (wah wah wah!)



seems I have to do things 5 or 6 TIMES to get it memorized nowadays, instead of once, and if those half-dozen times are spread out over months, well, that doesn't stick EITHER...



I've decided there's no GLUE left in mah poor lil haid.



hey, doesn't one of the regulars around this joint have a glue gun?



can someone send her over, STAT !?!

Mornin all sittin here drinking my morning cup of coffee, going shopping later,you'd be surprised at my lack of professional wear after staying home for 4 years!

My ex has been calling me 3-4 times a day again...I am nice but also make it known I have moved on.

BTW Olivia's new fav food is as she cutely puts it.....ickets and graby.

Good morning everyone.

I sit here all alone drinking my mornin joe. Its pretty cool. I had
planned to sleep very late but my dog had other ideas. I even set the
alarm for 530 and took her out but she wouldnt do her thing. So
830 she starts mad barking.

oh well......thats two extra hours I got in and I can nap.woohoo!!!

maybe this is good practice for the fall. for the first time in almost 19years
I will be alone during the school day. My oldest is going off to college
and my youngest is starting kindegarten.

So I got a dog a couple of months ago. I think I need a good
therapist.lol

So I miss all my family but am enjoying my peace and relative quiet.
Im seriously thinking of getting the makings for mojitos and having
a party at Sox's.(except for all my friends have children and they would
have to bring them and that would defeat Sox's partys' purpose.

Anyone close enough want to come have Mojitos???????

Renee.....I hear you after 19 years of not working Id have to throw all
my clothes out and start new if I went back to work. Good luck..
I hate clothes shopping but then again.....Im fat.

frank, vonne finlady, tricia, kay, weav, sandy & jim, sarah, barb, and
anyone else who will pop in....Have a super weekend!!!!!!

Good morning! I'm late today - got to sleep in till 7:30!!

Kevin's girlfriend took him out to dinner last night for his birthday and ended up staying the night here. They got home early - like 10:30 PM but watched a movie and she was too sleepy to drive home (don't think I don't know that was planned...).

They have gone to take my car to get the oil changed and the tires rotated and balanced. Kevin has plans to see Batman with a friend of his this afternoon but I have the feeling it will be a threesome if Jessica is still here.

I won't interfere in his relationship with Jessica but I see the signs of her getting a little possessive. Not really in a bad way - just little things like calling him six or seven times between 6 PM and 9 PM after he gets home from work. Unless he says something to me about it I will keep quiet. I really like Jessica - I hope she doesn't run him off!!

It's going to be 95 here today again so I will be inside for the most part. I did take the trash out this morning.....so exciting!! That will be my outing for the day!!

Has anyone seen the X-Files movie? My oldest son used to love that show when it was on TV. I think he's going to see it sometime this weekend.

Everybody have a good Saturday - and stay cool. I think Washington state is the only place that it looks relatively comfortable temperature wise.

Sox, I hear ya about clothes shopping. I hate trying on clothes, but sometimes you've got no choice. I'm anywhere from a large to a 2x depending on who made the stuff.

Weave, glad DD is home safe and sound. She sounds like she had a great time.

Barb, thanks for the review on "swing vote". Glad you had a good dinner afterwards.

TK, congrats on your showing in September. That is so cool.

Cloudy, Hope things look up soon.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sitting here with my morning cup of coffee, begging it to wake me up. Have plans to make a breakfast casserole with eggs, bacon, cheese, hash browns. Crossing fingers it will come out ok.

Thanks all for your congratulations. I'm still in shock , but also have plans to go to our local art store today - LOL. It's a neat family run business. I've run into quite a few interesting people there, including the owner. She's a neat gal. She says everyone else in her family has the artistic streak while she got the business one.

Hope everyone has a good day.

I've made that casserole before and it's soooo good. I don't think you'll have a problem with it - it's sorta hard to mess it up 'cause everything is just dumped in and it comes out ready to eat! Just thinking about it has made me hungry!!
