I got a happy hug in the ER from a tightly wound family member of my patient. Details on Monday.
Yesterday The Nephew woke up at 6am and wouldn’t go back to sleep. I blame his Parental Units, because they get him all worked up and organize an enormous party for his birthday, then expect him to behave like it was a normal day.
The Niece (who is 1mo on wednesday) already prefers to be on her belly, lifting her head (she can’t lift it all the way yet), follows bright colors and focuses on people talking. I didn’t drool on her so much she needed another bath, but almost.
I brought my pen drive and ravaged their father’s laptop, mwahaha, will post pics and inflict them upon you some time next week.
Yes, there is such an hour as 4AM on Sunday. I tried to fall back to sleep - I tried for half an hour. But no dice. So I took the critters out and returned to my happy place - here. 
No idea what’s in store for today since yesterday was totally not what I’d expected. I anticipate physical labor, lots of dirt, and perhaps something accomplished.
And tomorrow, I get to go to the dentist - will the fun never cease?? Woo and hoo!
Finally, why isn’t **Pie **here to greet me? Slacker!! 
Here I am.
:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:
Aw, c’mon - no need to pout! I’ve been surfin’ the Cafe…
And I’m getting all yawn-y. And I’m hungry. Actually, I’m thinking about crawling back into bed - it’s still dark out…
I got up to see the little brother off to the marathon. Other years we’ve gone downtown to see him at a couple of spots and then at the finish line. This year, they’ve conveniently re-routed it so that he’ll be running by one block away from here, so we’re going to watch him go by. I think we might be able to scoot downtown in time to watch him finish, but I’m not sure yet what route to take or where to park. I’ll figure that out later.
Back to sleep…
ETA: Sorry about the grrrrrr, Pie. Hope things get better.

Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienatin’ here.
Dindin went well last night. Good food (it ain’t braggin’ if’n your guests say the food is good) and good company. I coulda made dindin off of that artichoke dip it’s soooooo good! Anywho, much laughter and merriment was made. There’s even leftovers for N.O.L. today so I don’t even have to make anything. YAY!!!
Herbs you got me wantin’ corned beef and cabbage. Maybe that can be a project next weekend. I lurves me some corned beef and cabbage.
I get to ush today at church. I still say ushers should be issued cattle prods to herd the masses into church.
Ok, time for more caffiene. Maybe I’ll even go cook some brekkies. The smell of bacon cookin’ is usually enough to roust even ol’ y’all know who from bed.
Later Y’all!
I’m back. I’m a little better, I suppose. I was quite disappointed about something yesterday and it was there to greet me again this morning.
I’ve eaten chocolate chip muffins, though, so I guess that makes everything better, right?
Morning, Pie.
Good morning!
I’m glad things are slightly better, Pie. Chocolate almost always makes things a little better!
I found a recipe for a Pecan Cream Cheese pie. I’m gonna make that tonight. It sounds yummy! And meatloaf. It’s just ok for me, but every time I ask Dad and Mr Rebo what they want to eat this week, they say meatloaf. So meatloaf it is!
Mr Rebo has said he’s making lasagna for my birthday dinner next Sunday. Heh. It will be soooo hard for me to stay out of the kitchen!
It’s 7:30 and everyone is still asleep! I’m getting hungry. I’ve been up since before 6:00, since I crashed at 9:00 last night. I’m such an old fogey… 
I think I’ll try Swampy’s strategy and see if I can lure them with the smell of bacon frying…
Up, caffeinated,off to work.
I feel this way about Thrak’s litterbox.
Hi, Soapy. And thanks for listening.
Doggio, you made me chuckle out loud, thanks, I needed that.
I tried to take a nap, but it didn’t quite work and now I’m hungry again (the muffins were very sweet so I didn’t eat many) and I have a headache.
Here’s something funny… Did any Mumper with kids happen to buy a Disney happy meal for their kids with the temporary tattoo? Well, I ran across one the other day when I was cleaning out my car. So I decided to be funny and stick it on the back of my arm. It’s got a skull and two swords through it and says Pirates of the Caribbean. All the colors are very dark in it. Well, I can’t tell you how many times in the last two days it has scared the crap out of me because I thought there was a giant spider or other assorted bug on my arm!:smack::dubious:
Good morning everyone. I’m up and have my first cup of joe in hand.
Sounds like most folks were busy yesterday. I wasn’t. I spent the whole day either cruising the net or playing WoW.
I hope everyone’s day goes well.
Pie, as far as I’m concerned, muffins make everythig better.
I did go back to bed and actually dozed off. I have to say, I’m glad to be married to a truly warm person - even tho I had been wearing sweats, I was cold, and I stole some of his body heat.
We went breakfast with the kids. Daughter isn’t feeling well, so I sent her to bed. SIL just made her a cup of tea. He’ll be leaving for work in a couple of hours. **FCD **plans to spend the day in the garage organizing his temporary shop space. I’ve got some laundry started, and I’m going to head down to my studio to finish cleaning and organizing. No work on the apartment today, which is fine. I think we need a break.
I want to get back in bed…
I am worn out. Zeldadog and I took a two-hour walk to get some pictures of a burned-out building down the road from here. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Still being a bum. Third load in the washer, second in the dryer, first in the closet. FCD is snoring away in front of a football game. Daughter is sleeping. SIL is at work.
Life is good. I’m thinking we’ll have N.O.T. soup for supper. Yum.
I should bake a cake - it’ll warm up the kitchen…
I cruised the net, played some WoW, took a shower, and now, I need to head off to the store. I’m hanging my head in shame because we are down to one roll of TP. This just won’t do in a house with three bathrooms and four people, two of which are female.
I’m feeling slightly hungry, but nothing seems to appeal to me. I don’t know why.
Well, that was an unpleasant surprise…
My washer was stopped and the contents were drippy. The ground fault circuit interrupter had popped. So I reset it, set the washer to rinse (dunno at what point it crashed) and it should be done spinning in a little bit. Weird.
**FCD **is awake and putzing in the garage again. Daughter just woke up - she says she’s feeling a little better. Guess it’s occupational hazard from working around germy little rugrats. Gave us a good excuse for being bums today, tho, so yay for germy little rugrats!
Ooooooo! swampy is gonna have to give you a lecture!
I keep waiting for the laundry fairies to show up to fold my clothes but they’re off being lazy. Stoopit laundry fairies.
