Break time! I weeded, planted some daffydil bulbs, and put down 3 cartloads of mulch, plus I hauled a cartload of weeds and plant leavin’s to the far back of the yard. I’m all sniffly and sweaty and achy, so I’m having an orange soda and relaxin’ on line. I’ll probably go out later and weed some more, but I don’t think I’ll haul any more mulch for now.

\*\*FCD \*\*is off on his bike. He’s a bit stressed - his dad had surgery on Weds and he’s having another on Monday. This stuff can happen when you’re 83 and part of your body stop working as they should. I expect my sweetie will be going to Ocala to see his dad pretty soon.

There’s a depressing lack of ice cream in this house. I may have to remedy that. Plus I see Food Lion has Russets on sale, meaning I could make up a big batch of twice-baked N.O.T.s for the freezer. Sounds like a plan to me! 😃

If I get [this](http://www.partycity.com/product/adult+spiderman+partysuit.do?navSet=172589) for Halloween, is it considered dressing up or not?

yes

Ate my lunch  
Found the invitation and found it it’s not a wedding, just the reception. My mother said it’s the latest trend. I like it.  
I guess I need to decide if I am going to go or not.

They do but it gets updated a week at a time. So I have to wait until next week to see the arrests for this week.

He didn’t look like that when we lunched, but we might not have been seated in the restaurant if he’s shown up in that outfit. 😃

Co-worker is being an angel and letting me leave at 4:30 so I can go to the doctor, because I apparently look that bad. It was my day to stay till 5, but the right side of my sinus cavity had other plans. I already can’t wait to get home and get into bed. I’m thinking I won’t leave it except to pee all weekend. I’ll see you all on Monday if I don’t die. 🙂

Sketties have been ingested - one sack of sauce makes enough for 2 of us with leftovers for one meal. Whoever gets here first can have the leftovers unless you show up after lunch tomorrow, when I eat them myself. 😃

Chikin nachos have been ingested. YUM! I forgot to mention earlier, but tummy did not rebel too badly. However, y’all would not have wanted to be upwind of me for about half an hour this afternoon. 😃
