Going on vaycay today. Y’all behave yer selves till I get back!
wet one (I think that’s your moniker), have a good vacation. Mine starts in about 23 days.
Baker, good news on the Mom front.
Midget, been there, had new glasses every year for a time, these days I see the eye doc once every two years and the changes are minimal, if any.
Sunny, Three sundaes! Ruin that boy’s appetite, it will…
Sari, I have great neighbors, sorry that your don’t measure up. what was it this time?
Coach the girls tonight against a “club” -level soccer team, I think we’ll lose, but I also think we’ll do better than the other team thinks we will…got some talent there. Looks like rain is holding off until Sunday, so we’ll get to play our two games.
Time to go forage for sustenance now.
I learned today that my washer isn’t strong enough to spin 5 throw pillows. They’re literally dripping out on the clothes lines. I’m guessing they won’t be dry till tomorrow. I also washed some of Higgs’ afghans, and they’re getting fresh air and sunshine also.
I spent about an hour anna half working on the garden and I hauled a wagonload of weeds into the woods. Break time now, and I’ll try to finish this afternoon. There’s not a lot left, but my back is aching and I need to relax and cool down. I’ll get all the weeds pulled today, and tomorrow, I’ll mulch the whole area. Then I can decide what and where to add plants. But for a little bit now - chillage.
BLURF Why does it seem that short weeks are longer? Back from delivering A/P to the mother base, getting gas and a salad for lunch. Taking a few minutes before I get into another hornets nest. I have decided we need a small hurricane. So sick of tourists.
happy birthday bumba
I did not accomplish mowage. However, I did go to the liberry and then to the local farmer’s market. I bought squishes, zucchini, green beans, field peas, ‘maters, and two watermelons. squishes and zucchini have been sliced up, beans snapped and peas shelled and snapped. Watermelons are chillin’. Go Me!
Thank you for the birthday wishes everybody. I’m 70 today. :eek:
So… All you kids get…oh! Shiny!
First Friday Art Walk is tonight, so Wifey and I are going out for dinner tomorrow for my B’day. She suggested that we drive over to the coast for dinner at the ocean, but I had already decided I wanted to go somewhere that makes really good desserts, so I said we should go to Roses Deli. I think that’s what we’re gonna do.
Thanks again!
Yay! for BakerMom!
Good luck Nettie!
Have fun Peedin!
I’ll be thinking good thoughts about your butt, Rio.
Hmmm… that doesn’t sound quite right.
So we have a splash park here that is fairly new and of course I was made POC for the place. Someone called my clerk and said they were there and there were feces on the ground inside the park. So I called the grounds maintenance guy and told him to get over there and clean up the mess. I then called my boss and said that someone said there were feces at the splash park and he kept saying what? What? I finally had to say shit. I have been laughing every since. I am losing it…
Thanks for the good thoughts everyone. I’m very happy to report that for the first time all week, I can sit in a chair comfortably. I’m not entirely sure what happened, but it seems to have cleared up.
Weedage has been accomplished, mostly, I didn’t get every single one, but I got the worst of them. Tomorrow, I’ll mulch the crap out of the hill. We just got back from Lowe’s where I got some flowers to fill in some of the bare spots - mostly perennials, but I also got marigolds because I like 'em. So plantage and mulchage shall ensue tomorrow.
On the way back we stopped at Rose’s and got 2 quarts of strawberries that smell amazing!! Berries for snackage tonight. No clue what we’ll do for supper, tho.
I just popped some ibuprofen for my achy back. With luck, I’ll be able to move tomorrow.
**Butters **- I giggled, too! 
Not getting as much done as I hoped to today.
Mulching is scheduled for tomorrow.
Glad you mom gets to come home Cupcakes.
Good Luck** Nettie!**
Have fun WetOne, and I am tired of behaving so I may start misbehaving.
MetalMouse I hate my neighbors because I am a grumpy one.
It’s rutting season for the teens across the street. I sit at an angle so all the slapping, punching, poking, and face sucking doesn’t bother me, it’s the damn squealing.
Why do teen girls squeal so much whenever there’s a boy around?
The people next door were noisy as well. One of the guys (I have no idea how many people are living over there.) got locked out yesterday and he kept going back and forth outside my windows yelling for somebody to let him in. I think maybe that it wasn’t an accident that he was locked out. Then they were all outside and they yell back and forth from the front yard to the back yard.
I’m no prude about foul language, I can curse with the best of them, but I think one should not be yelling fuck this and fuck that loud enough for the neighborhood to hear.
Show some respect for the elderly, and for people with young kids.
I know living in town it is going to be noisy at times, there are always kids running around screaming, but that is kid stuff and to be expected. Adults should have better manners.
Normally, it’s pretty quiet around here though.
My irritation for today is that the damn cat flipped over his litter box. I don’t know how he did it. Fortunately, I had just cleaned it so only litter was spilled. Of course, he had to do it after I took the vacuum apart to clean it and all the filters are still damp, so I can’t use it.
I made the mistake of going to Aldi today. I forgot that yesterday was tha 1st of tha month so everybody cashed their checks and got up. After I got out of that madhouse, I went to Ingles to get what Aldi didn’t have and got stuck in line again behind some woman who was arguing about her the weight of her peanut butter.
Now that that’s over I can has weekend. 
I had sprayed some bug repellent on my arms and legs to protect me while de-weeding, and that smell and the general stickiness/stinkiness/ickiness of manual labor finally got to me. So I’ve had a shower and shampoo and I’m feeling pretty darn good! I even stripped and remade the bed - yay for fresh sheets! Supper was a 'mater sammich. FCD has run to a coworker’s house to get some software, and I’m about to assume the recline positing.
My back is achy - sucks to get old…
Howdy Y’all! We have suppurated over to the Olive Garden. ‘Twas good. Really. I even have leftovers. Rain appears to be comin’ on in and looks like it might settle in over the next three or four days. Thus I shall most likely regret that I did not mow today but I shall survive.
WetOne have fun on vacation!
Here we go again with the damn neighbors outside yelling at each other, and I heard a bunch of crashing noises.
They are throwing furniture into the front yard.
Throwing, as in not caring how it lands.
I hope that means they are moving out. It was getting pretty heated over there, but seems to have calmed down.
I have to irk so I had to close the window, too noisy.
I wonder if the neighbor on the other side knows what is going on, she usually does.
I am so nosy.
I usually call the police when the crashing noises start. Feel free. 
Or make some popcorn, grab a beer, set up a lawn chair and watch. 
I was tempted, but they quieted down.
That could be fun!
Same from here.
Other than that work and leftovers. Now for a shower and getting ready for tomorrow.
