Man, I was with the whole **Mayhem** thing till you pointed that out. I HATE that guy!!! _LOL_ (BTW the janis refers to Joplin, not Janice the muppet (though I love her “fer sure”, and I think she was named after Janis Joplin)

I have just had the laziest day! So lazy that I napped after my daughter painted my toe nails!! 🙂 Yesterday, I got some house plants and some impatiens for my balcony - I transplanted the impatiens and thoroughly watered them. They’re looking great. ABQ has gotten quite a bit of rain (LOL well, for ABQ it’s quite a bit!) the past few days. We’re on the outskirts of a big boomer thunderstorm right now - it’s leaving, fortunately. I really am starting to feel like Albuquerque is home now. I am missing my friends back in MD and of course my family, although one brother visited this past week, and another is coming in early October for the Balloon Festival. Never would have thought I’d be retired to Albuquerque NM though, I must confess!

Hope everyone has a great week coming up. **FCM** , best wishes to you on your last week before retirement - I predict you will love it too. 🙂

It’s also the name of my Dad’s cat.

Yes, I know, there’s a new MMP. I’ll go over there when I’m done reading this one.
