I did not post for a bit because I noted my post count was at 9,999. Knowing how the mods frown on post parties, I did not want to make a big deal of it. But I wanted my next post to be meaningful, fraught with imortance, deep. I read many threads, but did I really want my 10,000th post to be a throwaway response to something trivial?
Then it hit me…the MMP! Of course! So, I bestow upon you, fellow MMPers, my 10,000th post. Don’t make a big deal of it and bring down the Wrath of Mods. Really, it’s just important to me.
Ahem.
Ivyboy is still in England, and Ivygirl spent a few days with her aunt. Which left me and Ivylad with some alone time. Oooohhhh…what to do?
Well, I worked on finishing the painting of the exterior of the house. He mowed the back yard. We did some weeding. Saturday I went to my FairTax meeting, and I treated Ivylad to lunch and we went to Lowe’s to buy paint for my son’s room while wearing my FairTax t-shirt. I had three people come up and talk to me about the FairTax, and I gave one Lowe’s employee a bumper sticker.
We agreed on a paint color for my son’s room (actually, I capitulated, I hate the color, but Ivylad thinks Ivyboy will like it) and we started painting. Little did I know Ivylad wanted to do the ceiling in a different color. Now I have to repaint what I did with Kilz. :smack:
Ivylad treated me to an ice cream sundae at Friendly’s and then I bought swim goggles at Target since I’ve modified my gym routine from the machines to the pool.
I made dog biscuits for the dog and a crock pot roast for dinner.
And thus ends my 10,000th post. Now that the pressure is off, I can post at will again.
Thank you for your time.
