ouch!

reminds me of that Whitehouse spokesperson who said this week, (upon explaining that they weren't going to extend the jobless benefits) something about those people just need to go get a job!

seriously clueless!

if we *could* change things, we surely would!

I finally dropped off around one, but alas, the right toe-and-foot-cramps (SHA-WIIIING!) woke me at 4 am.

oh well... it was good while it lasted, eh?

I sent hubby off to market by himself at dawn, when he enquired as to why, I said "Well, unless you want to do the extra laundry involved, due to my panty-piddling... "

:D:o:D

alas and alack, when I feel cruddy, that old sx rears its annoying head...

I have four pairs of panties rinsed, and sitting in the bathroom sink, waiting for real washing, and getting hung on the line...

still, I'm happy that there were no major messes, just dribbles... (*sigh*)

and have I mentioned lately just how MUCH I despise the term "pseudoexacerbations" ??

there AIN'T nothin' "pseudo" about 'em...

:p:eek::p

:hug: to all my pals here, and Vonn, glad you had a good visit.

Hi all. :Wave-Hello:

It was an hour and done for me outside today. Muscle fatigue hit while doing stuff, so stopped - as much as I didn't want to. I generally love doing yard work. :circlelove: LOL, I was the outdoor kid who always came home a mess from playing in the dirt.

But at least after tomorrow it should be nice and cooler out here, so maybe I won't tire out as quickly later this week. But at least there's some noticeable improvement in that jungle, and I figured out the best way to trim a tree this winter. :)

So sipping some iced tea and sitting under my ceiling fan cooling down. Trying to figure out some simple and easy chores to fill the rest of my day. After my break, of course. :)

Deb good to hear from you - I was thinking this morning I didn't see many post yesterday but I can see now Frank was busy!!! I hope he rest today!

Jenn good for you for stopping when you knew you had to. I was the same way as a kid - grew up with 3 older brothers so I played in the dirt and mud with them! :D

Just took the dogs out back for a walk before I leave for class here soon. Wore me right out!

Have a great rest of the day everyone! :grouphug:

Char,

Tell him he's right.....you do need to change your sleeping habits. Then tell him to find somewhere else to sleep as that's your first "habit change"!! I think he'll see your point!! :D :p

morning all you morning flowers ...

the day is filled with cleaning ... company's coming tomorrow ... friends that have a place up at the lake want to come down for a viz ...

and trying not to OD on cleaning, and then going to the art guild meeting tonight ...

pacing myself ... with alot of breaks!!

will check on yous thru-out the day!!

Morning all! I was up bright and early to get the oil changed and now we're getting ready to head out and vote! See you all on the campaign trail!

I didn't get a chance to read everyone's post but know I am thinking of you and wishing good health and fast healing for those who need it. :hug:

Good morning everyone!
 

Sandy,

You inspired me. I'm going to vote this afternoon at the county government center. :) Our local polling place in town is a madhouse on election day!

Do ya'll have absentee voting? It saves you a trip to the polls.

except for me...

my absentee ballot hasn't come yet, so I'm going to have to go to the US Embassy in the capitol to cast my vote.

:(


I *did* get a pkg from the election dept. labelled Official Election Balloting Material.

talk about misleading, it was only an APPLICATION to get a ballot, not the ballot itself, as I discovered to my dismay... when I opened it.

which means, there's NO WAY there's enough time for this to go all the way back to California, then, for them to mail me a REAL ballot, and then, for the ballot itself to be mailed in.

so, at this point, it's just easier for me to go vote at the Embassy.
