Last time the lost my luggage, I got a call the next day from the delivery service; an hour later it was at my door. I unpacked, washed, & dried, & then for the 'ell of it, called the automated #, which told me they were _still_ trying to locate it. :smack:  
Mebbe they should have searched my closet???

Had some time in the hot tub with a glass of wine. Had a brownie with ice cream and hot fudge sauce. Life is good.

I’m so glad I don’t have to travel cross country for stuff anymore. I hate flyin’ and because this is Jawja I usually ended up on Delta. Delta means don’t expect luggage to arrive. They do a bang up job livin’ up to their name.

**Sari** , OAOASO sounds like a friend of RT’s that drives truck. He’s always calling RT with these off the wall ideas. Maybe it it’s a really, really small world. Does OAOASO’s first name start with a W?

Well, anyways, RT should be home but I’m guessing it won’t be until tomorrow morning. Last I spoke with him around 5, he was in WV.

welcome home **2gig**

cool videos when my puter let me watch them

Chinese for dinner. Not much else except the guy keeps texting OAOASO asking him if he still wants the house, why isn’t he answering him and that he turned away 4 other people to save it for him  
Whatever dude  
He has a website and i guess I am a grammar snob but when I visit a website and I see misspelled words and bad grammar I go look else where. If you are too lazy, sloppy, stoopid to fix the errors then you are too lazy, sloppy, stoopid for my business.  
He talks about people going through a divorse, and if you reffer a friend, maybe he meant reefer a friend, that could explain all the typos.

Maybe that’s a business I can start, go find dumb websites and offer to fix them.

No it starts with an ‘S’, but maybe OAOASO knows W and gets the weird ideas from him.  
Believe me I have heard some good ones.  
OAOASO has been driving trucks for 20+ years, I would not be surprised if they knew each other.

**Midget** I had two glasses of wine, so no ogbligatroy dukrnen psots tonight. 😃

We have a significant weather advisory. High winds and rain are predicted. That is significant apparently.

And on that note, I shall go snuggle up with OYKW in the bed and watch some teevee and ummm… stuff.

Nitey Nite Y’all!

American once sent my family and I to Alpena, MI., and our luggage to SanDiego, CA. That’s why my Underroos are in my carry on, now.

Happy Saturday!

It’s a cloudy 56 degrees, I think it is supposed to rain. I am hoping for rain.

Nothing in the agenda today except for irk. I have lots of Chinese food left over from yesterday, I plan it that way, I love leftover Chinese food. I like all leftovers, anything I can nuke is good.  
Little old ladies need love too you know **BBBobbio**

Happy Saturday! I got a text from RT at 5 saying they were getting ready to unload him. Last night he said it should take 4 hours and he’s an hour away so I should see him somewhere around 10 or 11. Yay!

Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienatin’. _YAWN_ ‘Tis 64 Amurrkin out with a predicted high of 76 and gloom and doom at least through the day. Tonight’s low will be in the high 40s which does not amuse me. Anywho, not rainin’ right now but it’s on the way again. Matter of fact I hear faint thunder rumblin’s as I post. A good day to stay in da cave.

**StickyBuns** yay for RT comin’ home!

**Nettie** ICK! Closin’ shift in retail any day of the week sounds awful.

**Sari** I like leftovers too. When I cook, most of the time I plan for enough for leftovers the next day. Leftover Chinese is especially nummy.

Ok, I need more caffiene and rumbly tummy is growlin’. OYKW is still abed. How evil would it be of me to go fry bacon (whilst fully clothed thankyewverymuch) right now. 😃

Happy Sattidy Y’all!

Good morning.

It’s a cold, wet, breezy morning. It’s 35 degrees. We’re supposed to clear up, and get up to nearly 50 today, so it won’t be a total loss.

The agenda for the day will include the starting of the Black Cherry Tomato seeds. I think we’ll go visit my dad, who is in the nursing home, too. He won’t know who I am, though. He never does, anymore. Alzheimer’s sucks. I’ll bring him a bag of junk food, because he really likes junk food. That makes him happy. 😃  
I think burgers and fries are on the menu for dinner, later. That’s easy enough.

**Swampy** , mmmmm…You can’t go wrong with bacon!

**StickyBuns** , enjoy RT being home! My husband got in yesterday evening, and he’ll be heading out again in the morning. He’ll probably be out for two weeks, again.

Have a good Saturday, everyone!

Our news feed weather forecast for Naptown calls for 2" of slush. 😕

I can relate. Our local forecast, as of last night, said we could get up to 1" of slush by this morning. I don’t even know what the hell that means. I’ve never heard a forecast like that, before.  
Didn’t happen, though. Thank Deity.
