I got up this morning, an’ we had **snow**! So I went out and threw snowballs at my housemate, an I went 'n watched lots of people sledging on things like plastic bags 'cos no-one had a proper sledge, an then I came home 'n I made an evil snow bunny, an some of the local kids threw snowballs at us, an then I came in cos I was cold an now I’m drinking mulled cider. It’s yum. It was awesome, and I’m apparently 6 years old. 🙂 ---

Mawnin all, Firstly a Uke can be rocked, I toured with the Asylum Street Spankers for two years and they rocked a Uke or two. The Spankers have a YouTube channel some is possibly NSFW. Secondly George Harrison took a Uke everywhere and wrote most of his songs on it. Ukes are teh cool. Yeah for snow where wanted, yeah for no snow where no snow was wanted, teh ice sucketh always. **Moooooooom** these little home projects always take on a life of their own, it will get finished. Happy Friday all Need more coffee **Jim** ---

Happy Firday For some reason my body thinks I should be wide awake in the middle of the night and the alarm is the signal to fall asleep. It’s gonna be one screwed up weekend. I think if one more person causes me a schedule change I am going to scream. I’m already frazzled. ---

Campbells Potato Cheddar Bacon for lunch or whatever you call the soup. Pet sitting this weekend, was I thought Friday PM to Sunday afternoon, turns out is Friday AM until Monday PM. I should just move in for the 4 days, I will be spending the night there anyway. Then I find out the pup is supposed to go in heat this weekend too. At least it didn’t snow. I need to mail a letter and I have a 44cent stamp. I know I have some 1 and 2 cent stamps around but I can’t remember where I put them - this is what I get for cleaning and organizing, now I can’t find a damn thing. It irritates me anyway that I have to pay by check and it’s not even my bill. So I checked the drawer where I thought the stamps were and what do I find!!! Evidence of a mouse. Only in that drawer, though. That doesn’t seem right though so I guess I’d better clean out everything even though I don’t see anything in the other drawers. We had a mouse a while back, I hope it’s from that one and not another one. I have to go to store today to get stuff for sah-kid. He invited one of his friends over and he wants to fix her dinner. Well, he wants to fix her priogies, I’ll fix something else to go with them. Except I have to pet sit too, so I got to figure all this crap out. I’m supposed to meet a new dog today but that client hasn’t called me back, and I don’t know if I should even bother because I may not be living in this area anyway. I’ve put off paying for the bonding and insurance as well. As well as the insurance company hasn’t called me back about why my premium doubled and I’m waiting on a call to pay a medical bill because I think they overcharged me. Sah-kid left early for school so I didn’t get the money to him to buy his cap and gown. He doesn’t want to graduate on stage, I don’t care one way or the other, but my mother is having a cow, so I told him just suck it up and do it for her. Probably why he ducked out early so I couldn’t give him the money. I know there are all small annoyances but dammit I hate having things out of order. Now I have to go find a stamp and clean out my desk drawers. ---

You guys has a good weekend. We’re having pizza and champagne for anniversary dinner, then off to Ft. Worth to watch a bunch of cheerleaders. Don’t ask. My ears would rather be cleaning the garage.
