Up, caffeinated, and sheveled. I did not win the lottery, so it’s off to work I go.
My 20s weren’t all that great, but my 30s were pretty good. I got married a month before turning 30 and had my daughter at 31 - coincidence???
Good morning! I really didn’t want to be up this early, but Higgs was fussing and I do have to get up early for work tomorrow, so here I am. And I did sleep thru the night, which is good. Today’s agenda includes laundry, making jam, and maybe running the vacuum cleaner.
I’m not sure what to think of this person who inquired about the camper. She says she’s in NJ and she’s willing to drive all the way down here to buy it, sight unseen. She offered me $600 less than we’re asking and I countered at $300 less - I’m not giving the thing away, fercryinoutloud! So she said she’d think about it. I also told her cash only. We shall see…
Overcast with a slight chance of rain the next few days and temps closer to the normal upper 80s. I’m glad I got the grass done yesterday - it’s too wet out there today. I think it may have rained overnight. Clothes will go in the dryer today for sure.
Once my sweetie gets up, we’ll get ready to go for breakfast. Meanwhile, I surf. Happy Last Day of July!!!
Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffeinatin’. YAWN 'Tis 74 Amurrkin out and cloudy with a predicted high of 94 and rain/tstorms/apocalypse this afternoon. We shall see. The big plan today is to deheathenate Luterun style. Beyond that, not much else. I foresee an afternoon of sloth and idleness.
And Now This…
<AHEM> CLEARIN’ THROAT <AHEM>

OK, I need more caffeine and rumbly tummy wants sustenance. Then purtification for deheathenization must commence.
Happy Sunday Y’all!
Happy BBBobbio Day!!
My spousal unit is up and about and showering. I need to get in line, then off to breakfast we’ll go!
Happy Orbit Completion Day, Bobbio!
…and that’s all he wrote…
HAPPY BOBBIO DAY!
Oh, that’s right. There has to be more writing for the all caps to hold.
HAPPY BOBBIO DAY!!
also, blurf.
Happy Sunday!
Happy Birthday Bobbio!
Up half the night, then up late this morning.
It’s supposed to be a cloudy 76 outside with a chance of rain, but so far the sun is shining.The yard work can wait if it rains.
Considering that I just woke up and feel like blurf.
Happy birthday, bobbio!
metal mouse, if you’re too bored, you can still sign up to help me move Friday. 
butters, I wish your friend a peaceful passing.
Sis and the pup left around six this morning. I took her down to show her where she would be coming in at Christmas and we went out for burritos and beer. Today’s agenda is fixing one last meal that requires more than a microwave, doing up all dishes involved and finish packing the kitchen. Three more commuter days left. W00t!
I had to make a panic run to Leonardtown - the jar seals I bought yesterday were the wrong size - Food Lion didn’t have the smaller ones and I didn’t notice when I grabbed the box. So I took them back, then ran to McKays, where I got the right size for less than half the price shown at Food Lion. So yay! The jams are in the boiling bath and all the dishes are soaking in soapy hot water. First load or laundry is in the dryer, second in the washer.
No wonder I’m sweating!!! :eek:
Was the Coors Diet pretending to be beer instead of water again? Is that why you snitched on it?
Flew yesterday morning & then went back to my friend’s house, where we were staying for the weekend to [del]nap[/del] pass out. I am officially family there now as the dog, who is normally skittish & doesn’t even come near people came into my room hopped up on the bed & cuddled with me.
While we were there, they closed the festival due to heavy wind, rain, lightning, & hail & even told us not to show up later. It rained, sometimes heavy for most of the evening up there. Pretty ironic that we didn’t get to see the musical entertainment …KC & the Sunshine Band because of rainy weather. :dubious:
10 of us ended up going out to dinner. They put us in a separate greenhouse-type room at the end of the restaurant (along with one other table of two people that was seated later - this was the whole room). The waitress was a piece of work, first she argued with someone at the other end of the table about the drink he ordered. Since we were ALL shivering from the AC we asked her to adjust it. Her response was that it is coldest in that room but it flows to the other rooms so that they need to keep it cold in there; however, the next room had one table filled. :smack:
I think I had a fever on the ride home, turned the temp in the car up to 74°…& then back down to 60° (the lowest it’ll go) & opened the window. Eventually decided I can’t continue to drive so I pulled into an industrial area, turn off the car & turn off the lights. Industrial area should be nice, quiet & dark at 9:30pm on a Sat evening, right? I’m not there two minutes when a car buzzes past me. Shit, unmarked cop car. He goes up into a parking lot turns around & lights me up with his spotlight. “You alright?” I was legally parked but now my nap was interrupted so finished the drive home (another 20 mins) & right up to bed.
Happy B-day Bobbio.
{{Butters}}
It was sad times when I left irk yesterday. Detailed AGM’s SIL died suddenly Friday afternoon and he was still teary on Saturday. She had cancer and they knew she didn’t have much time left but they didn’t expect it to be as quick as it was. 
But at least it was quick and she didn’t have to suffer so they’re taking comfort from that.
Jammage is complete. First load of laundry is put away, second is in the dryer, third is in the washer. When the 3rd load is done, I’ll have a little studio time.
Still sweating - whew!
I feel so lazy lately.
I don’t have to irk today, made enough money this week so I can take today off. I should be catching up on stuff but instead I am lazing about.
Maybe I should embrace my inner sloth,
Hug the lazy so tight that it squirms to get away.
However, tomorrow is trash day and the fridge won’t clean out itself, and the litter box won’t clean itself, and the dishwasher won’t unload itself, and the vacuum won’t run by itself - maybe I should buy a roomba.
Last load in the dryer. Jam is almost cool enough to put in the pantry. I need to get down to my studio in a bit. I don’t feel like being artistical, but I’ve got to get the pots done, so maybe once I start, I’ll feel it.
Howdy Y’all! All deheathenated, had brunch and even had a nap. Productive day!
Y’all mind if I take tomorrow?
Go for it, Nava! Start it Monday Morning your time! YAY!
I just finished playing in clay. I added details to 3 pots and finished up 3 penguin spoon rests. And I kinda sorta cleaned up - not all, but most. Go me!
I went clothes shopping today :eek: and found a dressto wear to Irish Storyteller & Seasonal’s wedding. It has that rare quality so few dresses have these days: sleeves! (Well, it comes with a shrug jacket that has sleeves.) And it was on sale so I got a pair of earrings to go with it. Now I just need shoes and some new pantyhose and I’ll be set.
I also discovered that TJ Maxx sucks. Everything looked like a burlap sack held up with spaghetti straps.
We had tboomers move through that have brought the temp down to 81 Amurrkin. Nice! However they did cause me to snooze out in the recliner with the teevee on for almost an hour and a half. I have a feelin’ sleepage will not come easy tonight. Oh well, it ain’t like I have to be somewhere tomorrow.
We have a motion on the floor…
All in favor of Nava startin’ us off tomorrow say “AYE”.
AYE!!!
All those opposed [del]sit down and shaddup[/del] say “NAY”.
::CRICKETS::
The “AYES” have it. Nava shall start us off with [del]an assortment of bagels and schmeer[/del] an intriguin’ tale of sump’n or other.
