Howdy all. Irking as usual. We did get a little rain today which is always welcome. I am thinking I will skip out of irk early today for no particular reason. ---

Howdy Y’all! Another day of irk survived. Two more to go. Dindin tonight is roasted chikin, leftover baked veggies from last night, peas 'n carrots, and rolls. Won’t take long at all to slap on the table. I shall also attend Evening Prayer over to the church house. That is all. ---

Higgs is back on the list. She started raising a ruckus around midnight. \*\*FCD \*\*wasn’t feeling well and I couldn’t sleep thru the barking, so I locked the bedroom door, let the dog out of her crate, and settled in on the recliner. It’s not a bad place to sleep, except when **FCD** ’s compressor kicked on. Then I kept dreaming that I was waking up, even tho I wasn’t waking up, so I woke up exhausted. I even fell asleep at work, but that’s mostly due to not having anything to do. Tomorrow, I’m taking the tablet - I can read Jane Austin - that should help me stay awake. I can’t do any work, dammit. Still no computer. I tried to do my time card tonight, and I screwed something up, so I’ll have to get with my boss first thing in the morning. Or call the time card lady. Either way, it has to be done tomorrow morning, since Firday is my off day. After a stop at the gym on the way home, I’ve got chicken teriyaki in the toaster oven and rice in the steamer. In a few minutes, I’ll put the basket of broccoli in the steamer with the rice, and supper will be done shortly after that. Good thing, too - I’s stahvink!!! Yeah, yeah, Happy Wednesday… ---

I got a rocky start this morning. Yesterday, while I was in a meeting, IT came and switched out my 'puter, you know, the new one. It had a glitch that made it crash when I tried to print. Thing is, they didn’t text me. I could have (gladly) left my meeting and backed stuff up a little early. So this morning, I had to set everything up that I just set up a week ago. :smack: Unfortunately, I lost a few files. Fortunately, the day got better. 🙂 Poke chops and ratatouille for supper. ---

I have packed my lunch for tomorrow and I just finished showering. I’m exhausted - I need to sleep thru the night - I may crash very soon. So on that note,\*\*\* MWAH!!\*\*\* ---

Howdy Y’all! Home from Evening Prayer over to the church house. ‘Twas a nice service as usual. OYKW decided to forego, so I went a little early and walked the Labyrinth for a bit. A very centerin’, calmin’, meditative thing to do. **MOOOOOOM** you should tell FCD he has Higgs duty the next time she kicks up a ruckus. After all she IS his dawg. OK, I shall now look at teh intartoobz for a bit and then go beddy bye. I’s tahrd! Nitey Nite Y’all! ---

I had a TV dinner for dinner because I didn’t feel like cooking anything. I wasn’t that hungry anyway. Tomorrow I’ll make chicken. ---

My hubby had a big old molar pulled today and is traumatized. Pitiful. I know it has to hurt. Took Louie to the military vet today for toe nail trim and :shudder: anal gland expression. He was not happy at all. Crappy frozen pizza for dinner for me soup for the patient. Tired. Rain is predicted for next two days. I am happy about this. Feel better soon **black crow. Aka Raventhief** ---

May I kill Spiderman, Mom? Please? He is being very rude. I promise that I won’t kill anyone else the whole day, honest! I had a molar cut out, and the only pain was the needle injecting a quart of Novocaine into my mouth. Why the hell does my spell checker want to capitalize (n)Novocaine? Asshole. ---
