Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffeinatin’. YAWN ‘Tis 70 Amurrkin out and clear (dark actually) with a predicted high of 89 Amurrkin and mostly N.O.S. for the day. Rain is allegedly movin’ in tonight. We shall see. The big news from here is OYKW will be back late this afternoon. YAY! I’m sure the ‘hood will be relieved when I again have adult supervision and won’t be able to do wild things like stay up past ten p.m. Today’s agenda includes defilthyfyin’ da cave and possibly puttin’ up at least one of the remainin’ ceilin’ fans. We shall sup upon steak, company smashed N.O.T., sallit, and cheesey garlic bread. Think I’ll make some brownies as well. That should be enough to keep me outta any major trouble today.
Sonny I like the hair color. My youngest niece dyed her hair like that once and I keep tellin’ her that she should do it again cause it looked so good on her. Then again, it’s her haid so what she does to it is none of my bidness. It really did look good however.
OK, now I need more caffeine and to feed rumbly tummy. Then, onward into the day! Rah.
**swampy **- are you done with painters and remodelers? Last I recall hearing, your bathroom was still a work in progress.
Very small crew at work this week - in fact, the senior-most engineer has been here less time than I have! :eek: The boss is in Mobile and the other 3 engineers are in Brazil dealing with a new project we were recently awarded. Oh, and a new guy starts today - actually, he’s transferring in from another part of the company, but he’s new to our group. And I’m leaving early because of a delivery at home. Exciting, huh?
More fun than a sharp stick in the eye. Happy Moanday!
I’ve been up since 3:30, so far I have irked, cleaned out the fridge, which should have been done yesterday since today is trash day. The trash men hadn’t come yet, so all is good there. I have a load of clothes in the washer.
I would have started the MMP but I couldn’t think of a thing to say.
I don’t know who put all their damn trash in front of my house, but they put out yard waste bags in the pouring rain. I am going to be pretty damned pissed if they fall apart and leave a mess. I have a bag of yard waste on the back porch, but it can wait until it’s not raining.
My other annoyances for the morning, one of the smoke detectors starting chirping, and I found a puddle under the kitchen sink.
I dug through all of the immunization records and everything is there except his last Td (Tetanus/Diptheria) shot.
There is no place to put it in the little book, and I can’t find any receipts or proof he got it.
I’ll send what I have and if he needs to get another Td then so be it.
Thunderboomers this morning. Ick. Yesterday I went to bed at 5:30 pm and woke up 2 hours later. Watched a little teeve and read, and was asleep again by 10:30. Weird.
Just met our office n00b - he’s a drafter, not an engineer, so apparently my replacement is here. Except our other drafter is only here till her clearance comes thru, then she moves to a different office. Anyway, that’s Monday’s excitement here in the working world.
Morning all. Dishes are washing and I should be starting laundry, but heading out to go shoppin’ here in 20 minutes or so. Got my confirmation for my 0930 Dental appointment tomorrow, so I have that to look forward to…
Hot and dry again today. May have to get the hoses out and water the lawn.
First day I sent my kids to school/daycare in shorts. There have been days when I could have, but I didn’t. It’s finally warming up for the year in Wisconsin!
I also busted out my capris and sandals for work… hooray business casual!
Geezer that I am, I still can’t get used to kids wearing shorts to school. Then again, when I was in high school, girls weren’t allowed to wear pants - and this was a public high school, not some snooty private school with uniforms and such. Nothing like freezing your butt off at the bus stop because you had to be in a skirt or dress.
Welcome to our playground!
I’ll be leaving the office shortly - yay for short day!
Car oil has been changed. Up until 15 minutes ago it was all sunny and lovely; now its raining buckets. Interesting weather continues and the news is all on how many more landslides we’re going to get. Sometimes during the winter someone moved me to California and did a damn good job of disguising the fact.
Mom, being a guy I don’t know nothing about wearing skirts, but yes, the dress code in schools today probably would give all us old geezers a touch of the vapors.
Spidey, I appreciate your efforts to become a wit. You’ll be glad to know you’re halfway there.
Hello, Serenata67. Don’t know if this is just a drop-by or not, but hope you stick around.
Shopping completed and lunch eaten. Dishes are done and waiting to be put away. Already over 90F outside, so no rush to get back to the great outdoors.
raven very cool. Did she do it herself or get it done somewhere? I think I’ve worked out how to do it myself, but I’m almost certainly going to chicken out and get it done professionally. I can handle a single color, with maybe a few strips of another color, but I think this is beyond my pay grade.
FCM that’s terrible! You sat around all day, not at the office, relaxing, not working, that’s just, er, awful. Yep, awful.
Sarisah-son needs shots for college? Interesting. I could see maybe requiring those for the dorm, but since he’s not staying in one, I’m not sure I understand the logic.
I’ve always seen these MMPs and sometimes quietly lurk… so I thought maybe I’d jump in on a Monday morning and be part of the in-crowd.
And yea, it’s kind of weird sending my kids to school in shorts. My daughter goes to a Catholic school with uniforms and all, so there aren’t a lot of girls, navy blue, knee-length shorts to be found. So she’s wearing boys shorts. Normally, I’d just put her in a skirt on hot days, but she has gym class today, so it’s a shorts kind of day.
My son goes to preschool/daycare, so as long as he’s comfy, that’s all that really matters. He’s young enough that shorts look cute on chubby little legs as he runs around. He’s such a little dude.
I used to have brown (my natural color) to blue ombre hair. Loved it so much. Faded so fast. Turned green. I miss having fun colored hair. I think I might put a pink streak in around October and say it’s for breast cancer awareness or something.
Ocean hair is so cool… bet yours is awesome, Sunny.
