We finally have fall weather in Sacramento! Forecasts stay in the 70s for about the next week, a grocery clerk told me she’d heard a forecast for rain Monday.
Pizza! Beer! Dindin of champions!
Plus it was all healthy cause I made a green sallit.
Ice cream and cookies for later too! Life be good.
Mrs. Plant Googled “oven cooked french fries” to go with hamburgers.
We said, “screw it” and will cook them with our own seasonings.
Shabot Shalom, y’all!
Hi, honeys, I’m home!! As it turned out, we did go to Muncy, which turned out to be a good thing. **FCD **found a mill he liked that was a good bit cheaper than the one he saw on line.
On the other hand, the drive home took forever. We left around noon, stopped once for lunch, once for gas, and once for a potty break, and with the traffic, the less-than-five-hour trip took six anna half hours. I got a lot of afghanning done, so there’s that.
We’re both winding down now. The house is open, since tonight is supposed to be cool. Sunday is gonna be downright brisk! And we’re going to work on Monday. I don’t get paid holidays anyway and **FCD **has a big project to attack, so we’ll be in the office. Yay for getting paid!
So, no long weekend for us this time. Maybe next month…
I am going to post my facebook status because I don’t feel like retyping how my day went since I am emotionally exhausted and still a little shaken up:
Wow, Apes, that does not sound like fun at all. I’m so happy that the state trooper happened by. Glad you made it home safely.
Work has been yucky and tiring. I am grateful for a 3-day weekend.
Am going to find something to watch online.
Hugs.
GT
SO glad that kind cop took care of you! Sometimes, angels wear badges. 
Thanks** GT** and Seanette
I wanted to just collapse on the couch and hug my whole family when I got home!
Y’all have a good night:D
Irked, came home.
Apes, glad you’re OK, and glad the State Trooper was there to help.
Double plus for that; sounds like a great guy with great timing. Hope you feel a little less shaken later**,{ Apes. }**
Thanks **Tao **and doggie. I am so ready for a nice long nap, I think until about 11 tomorrow morning.
Like that will ever happen with two 4 year olds, :rolleyes:haha
Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienatin’. YAWN 'Tis 63 Amurrkin out with a predicted high of 89 and dry, dry, dry. However, yestiddy the high was supposed to be 87 and it did not get above 80 so who knows today. No big plans so it can do whatever it wants to do.
Apes so glad you’re ok and that State Trooper earned major Karma points. So glad he was there. As to gettin’ to sleep in, this advice is probably a little late for this time but keep it in mind. I heard that a little vodka in the nighttime juice can result in a long sleep in for the weary parent(s).
There’s probably a good reason why I was not meant to be a parent.
Now I need more caffiene and rumbly tummy is demandin’ to be fed. I want to wait until OYKW stirs to make a for real brekkie. Maybe some peanut butter on a slice of bread will make tummy happy until then.
Happy Sattidy Y’all!
Morning. I’m up, caffeinated, and off to irk.
I am up, floors are vacuumed and I have a list of errands to do in town later. Tomorrow I am off to visit my doting parent as I’ve not seen her since before my epic West Coast trip! I suspect she will have a very long list of jobs for me…
blurf. Rehearsal/coaching session today - I’m tired from the sleep I didn’t get last night because I was so wound up from that rehearsal.
I offer my .sig to all and I’ll be back this evening.
TVCTPMO fired a shot across my bow this morning.
The Family Truckster is 5 and a half years old. Car batteries have a 5 year life, and this one went Tango Uniform on me today, stranding me at the dump. Had to beg for a jump start.
Getting the battery changed out was pretty painless except for the $110 price tag. I am glad it happened now instead of to the wife while I’m on the Left Coast.
BBBobbio if the battery lasted that long, consider yourself lucky. Twuck battery died in June, right at the three year mark when I bought twuck new. Glad it didn’t happen to VWife cause that would have been your fault even if you were clean across the country.
In case she should peek in at some point today…
<AHEM> CLEARING THROAT <AHEM>

Hey GT, may I sign up for Monday? Believe it or not, I have it done already.
We have a motion on the floor.
All in favor of Alien starting us off on Monday say “Aye”.
AYE!!!
All those opposed [del]get over yourselves[/del] say “Nay”.
::crickets::
The “Ayes” have it. Alien shall be our host with the most [del]with an assortment of bagels, schmeer and fruit[/del] and regale us with a tale of delight which we shall immediately hijack all to heck and back.
Lazy day here today. Plan to do a couple big batches of food to be consumed over the next few days (hey, if I’ve gotta heat the oven and clean up the kitchen, might as well maximize what I get from it), get caught up on DVR stuff.
