It has finally cooled off here in So. Ark… I had a fire in the wood stove last night. Mr.Wrekker has yet to clean the chimney for the fire place, so can’t use that yet. He’s allover some deer hunting right now. He got a big buck this morning, so I hear. I hope it ain’t taxidermy big, oooh!! just what I want another buck hanging on the wall. Can’t wait!! Everything’s good with the lil’wrekker, her grades were fantastic, now if I can get her spending under control, we will all be good! Well gotta get up and do some laundry, hope y’all stay warm in the north country. Bye all!
The critters’ fountain is clean and refilled. The salmon is smoking. We’ve been to the convenience center, so we’re trash-and-recycling-free.
I see much sluggage ahead.
Yeah, but mine sounded more dramatic.
Nearly done with stoopit essay I’ve been irking on all weekend. I hope it doesn’t take so long when I get to essay writing for the topics I’m actually interested in. Honestly, I’ve written longer posts -and cited them better- in under 10 minutes.
This is a gubmint mandated module though, and I just have to pass it- because obviously we all need job hunting tips from someone so cutting edge and up-to-date that they told us not to bother putting our O levels on applications if we’ve got a degree, when O levels were discontinued in 1988, before most of the class was even born. :rolleyes:
A 1’ Santa has been added to the Christmas display across the street.
The smaller skeleton is missing the right lower leg. Neighbor should borrow my little dog and give her a bone to gnaw, sitting on his front porch.
The salmon is smoked - **FCD **said it tastes like hot dogs. So I guess I won’t be using that brine again. I don’t like smoked fish - it just doesn’t work for me.
I may wander over to the Cafe and see if anyone has a good salmon brine recipe.
Howdy Y’all! We’ve deheathenated and had N.O.L. I Ushed and didn’t trip over or break anything so I call that a win. 
Nappage in the near future.
Guten Morgan, y’all.
Last night we went out to our friend Gil’s place for a potluck and to listen to a band called The Black Market Trust. They’re kind of a strange mix of gypsy jazz (think Django Reinhardt) and very early pop music. (think a very young Frank Sinatra) It was fun. I drank some too sweet Riesling and a lot of apple cider. I slept like a rock for 5 hours last night. 
Nothing else interesting happened this week except one thing and I know a lot of you don’t want to hear about gun stuff, so I’ll skip that.
Y’all have a good week.
I just ironed 5 of FCD’s long sleeve shirts, then placed an order for supper from Pizza Hotline.
I had thought about making N.O.T. soup, but I just didn’t feel like it. I have zero energy.
Happy Sunday!
Heathenated this morning, went to Amerigo’s with the gang (there was a dobro convention who reserved Hogwarts this month), then picked up some rubber stamps that I had purchased from CL. Now I have a whole box of them to sort and clean (the seller gave me a good deal, so it didn’t surprise me that they were a bit messy). Now to finish supper.
I did a whole bunch of laundry to completion even. I vacuumed and mopped the main room, cleaned the kitchen and am tahred. Hubby bought a new grill so he is breaking it in with some chicken. I could just skip food and go to bed. I also hate this ridiculous early getting dark business.
On this past Firday, a holiday, I slept all day and I mean all day and with just a couple awake hours slept all night as well. I hope I am caught up on me sleep.
OYKW went to his place this afternoon because he has an early monitorin’ to do tomorrow and it’s near his house. So, I ironed shirts, dusted and vacuumed the livin’ room, dinin’ room, and master bedroom. I also got the rugs up from the kitchen and master bathroom floors to wash and dry. Since the rugs were off the floor, I mopped both rooms as well as the tiled part of the livin’ room. Go Me! All I need to do tomorrow cave spiffin’ wise is to clean the counters and sinks in the kitchen and master bath. Now I’s tahrd! Oh and I rewarded myself with ice cream.
DA BEARS!
SUCK!
went to Ba Da Wings to watch the game. Met a few people ,drank good beer. Making poke chops with Asian BBQ sauce, with sweet **N.O.T.**s and green beans with Shiitake and Oyster mushrooms.
Lawn mowed, brother called, and met my neighbor’s new puppy (a Lab/Border Collie mix that seems pretty intelligent for being 2 months old–welcome to the neighborhood, Caroline!)
Chilled all day which considering the weather was easy. The OW went to a special exhibit on the history of underwear and I got a good start on Christmas cards — the real kind made of dead trees and sent via the USPS with postage and everything. May have to check around and see if anyone on the Dope is doing cards for kids this year.
