Daughter is taking my car today because hers has to go into the shop. So both of us drove in today, but shortly, I’ll be headed to the Ford dealership. Then much drawing corrections shall ensue. Good times.
Our broken garage door spring will be replaced this afternoon - yay. I wasn’t amused having to scrape ice off my car this morning. Stoopit ice. Stoopit garage door breakage.
Happy Wednesday!

Did not sleep well last night, despite taking a fistful of melatonin before hitting the sheets. Had a weird dream, too, where I was discussing the floorplan of the house we lived in in Detroit with my deceased father, visiting from the afterlife just so he could explain it to me. :dubious:
Mind you, we moved out of the joint before my 5th birthday. I have vague memories of the place that are enough to satisfy my curiosity, and I’d rather slide down a 50 foot razorblade into a pool of saltwater before I’d go back to Motown now.
Last night I walked almost 1 mile on the track before I realized that my orthotics were switched in my shoes. I couldn’t figure out why I was having such a hard time. :smack:
Otherwise, BLURF, and carry on.
When I did that in the past, it usually meant I had my shoes on the wrong feet, too. 
Mornin all.
Dear weather, please pick a temparture and stick to it. 60 yesterday and 30 today and 60 and rain on Friday make no sense.
No love,
Jynx
p.s. You can stop with the rain/snow/something wet from the sky thing. The Great Dismal Swamp is 2 miles down the road, my back yard does NOT need to reconnect with its former roots!
Jynx this weather bidness of movin’ from Winter to Spring is no fun. Pine trees here are gettin’ prepared for their annual Spring orgy. When it gets over sixty Amurrkin out little bits of yellow pollen appear. In about three weeks laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarge bits of yellow pollen will be everywhere for four to six weeks. ICK!
Howdy from irk. ICK!
Hon, you’re making me jealous. Cottonfield County, NC, where I fmoved from to get to Merryland, is southwest of you. I still kiss the place, rednecks and all, 3 years after the fact.
Yeah,
My crocuses/crocusi are starting to show and my trees already have buds on them. I would just like to be able to venture out into my back yard with out requiring galoshes and a snorkel. Last year was the same. Lost most of my herbs in my container garden due to too much rain. They drowned/rotted. ICK!
Funny fact, I grew up in Silver Spring, Merryland and moved to Northern VA then to Hampton Rds VA. I still visit the eastern shore of Merryland as that is where my folks have retired. I do NOT miss the traffic from up there though.
Every time we’d get someone who said they were fraid of heights we’d tell 'em try it for 5 mins, if you don’t like it, we’ll land & let you out; only ever landed once.
Iffn you’ve never done it, do it!
& in other news, BLURF!

If it wasn’t for irk I’d still be snoozing.
Fifty Shades has expaned the series. I didn’t read the first ones, but I think the new ones sound tasty. 
Spidey you haven’t really cooked until you first torture your food. 
Ok, so I took a look in the aforementioned Pit thread. What a train wreck! :eek: This is why I generally stay out of that place.
Time to go bother folks at their trainin’ places. One of the joys of irk.
I want to bang my head.
Several months ago an old pet sitting client called me. I can’t remember why she called. I haven’t seen or heard from her in years as she had moved out of the area years ago. We chatted for a while and she gave me her new number and asked to keep in touch.
Shortly afterwards I got a friend request from her on facebook.
I saw her pic and thought she looks good and is doing well. From her profile I see she graduated from college and has a good job. From her posts she seems to be really happy.
Cool because when I was sitting for her her life was kind of a wreck.
A few things kind of confused me in her posts but in all honesty I really don’t pay that much attention.
Today I notice we have friends in common and then I see she is friends with two of my cousins and an aunt. I think that is weird because even though the aunt lives nearby the cousins are in two different states. Then I take a closer look at her picture and I realize I have NO FREAKIN IDEA who this woman is.
I guess she is a relative?
JC on a pogo stick, first someone I don’t know posts pics of me and my family and now I realize I’ve been friends with someone that seems to know me and I have no idea who she is.
Isn’t there a thread around here somewhere about blond moments?
Off to irk.
Swampy it was fun for a while but the shine has long worn off as PIT threads often do. I may pop in and lurk but my posting is probably done.
Mawnin all

That’s all I got so far

**sari **- maybe you’re living two lives and you’re only alternately aware of each. <cue eerie music> Maybe in your non-Mumper life, you’re a celebrity… or an evil genuis… or a benevolent overlord (overlady?) Or you might just be losing your mind. No matter - we all still love you.
Lunch time - turkey noodle soup again. **FCD **isn’t interested in eating any of it, so I’m guessing I’ll end up eating the whole batch. Fine by me - I like it and it’s an easy lunch.
When I called last night about the garage door repair, we supposedly set it up for after 4 today. The repair guy called **FCD **this morning. Apparently in his world, after 4 = 2:30, so we’ve got to bail out at 2. No biggie, but, dang, if you ask what time I can meet with you, try to stick with that time, mmkay?? Then again, I get to leave early today.
I could probably do it, I don’t know how much I’d enjoy it.
When my son was little, I can’t remember if it was his 4th or 5th birthday, I took an introductory flying lesson just so he could go up in a plane.
He loved it, big smile on his face the whole time. By the time we landed I was green.
It’s not just the height it’s the movement too.
NitroQuik tabs?
Now if roses are blue
and violets are pink
I’m betting your color TVs
on the blink.
Yeah. That’s the ticket.
