> [@Spiderman](#): > > Was it a Sri Lankan spider [bite](http://www.philly.com/philly/obituaries/20130503_ap_slayerguitaristjeffhannemandiesat49.html)? :eek: A Sri Lankan spider would not have to bite me for me to die. I think the sight of one would do me in right then and there. :eek: **Lucky** yay on the presentation! Appropriate/inappropriate appendages crossed for round two. **Apes** if you worked givin’ birth in as a visual for your presentation it would be memorable. 😃 ---

Phlox are planted. About 1/3 of pachysandra are planted. I’m already exhausted - I need a yard man… Break time!!! ---

> [@Jynxster](#): > > News Flash! Presentation went…surprisingly well! But, the day is not finished nor is the presenting. Will our brave heroine survive round 2 with the boss after she hangs up from a nasty sounding conference call? F\*\*\* Conference calls. You rock! ---

Light lunch has been ingested - PB on Potato roll and 3 ibuprofen, all washed down with ice water. Yum! 😃 I really don’t want to go out again, but I gotta get it done. If I finish the pachysandra today, I can plant the funner stuff tomorrow. But I still wish I had a yard man. “You there! Straighten those rows of pachysandra! I won’t have a garden all higgledy-piggledy!!” Then I’d glare over my lorgnettes… 😃 ---

I quit… for today. Besides the phlox, I did 2/3 of the pachysandra, and I just can’t do any more. I’ll finish the last of it tomorrow. For now, the sprinkler is watering the new plantings and the semi-established ones. It’s not hot out, but I’m sweating like crazy. Hard work for an old woman… And no chocolate in the house!! :eek: I believe I shall swoon… :o ---

I did not blow away today in the blusteriness. Not sure how I managed that. Also, I am wearing a sweater in May because it’s that chilly. What the _hell_, weather? ---

Temp has dropped to 57° and it’s breezy. Not freezing, but still a bit of a chill out there. _brrrrrrr_ We’re in for the night. \*\*FCD \*\*is going on a long bike ride tomorrow - leaving at 5:30 in the dark of the morning!!! I’ll start my day with laundry, then get back to planting when it warms a bit. But for tonight, I’ll soon assume the knit position. I think it’ll be an early night. ---

Geez! Could the Dope be any slower! Took me almost an hour to get in here. Anywho, pizza has been ingested along with sallit to make it all healthy. Catfish filets have been cut into strips for fryin’ tomorrow and slaw is made. Go Me! It’s coolish here as well. Actually it’s 66 Amurrkin out and has been pretty much all day and really won’t change overnight. Strange weather we be havin’! Now let’s see how long it takes for this to actually appear as a post. :rolleyes: ---

My last post posted! I am surprised given that I got timed out. Anywho, a dreary evenin’ but I have a bear to keep me all snuggly. 😃 I made Bloody Mary mix because I had a request for Bloody Marys tomorrow evenin’. Not a drink I consider an “evenin’ drink” but one must please one’s guests must not one? ---

So everyone is having trouble with the board? I was getting pissed. I hate to say it but even the kid is getting on my last nerve tonight. He turns 18 in less than 2 weeks, first he doesn’t want a party then he wants a party but he only wants to invite two friends. That’s not a party and both friends are female and T will probably not show up, so that makes it a date with him and C, unless he invites her bf too. I think I’ll just throw a big ass party, spend a ton of money, invite the whole damn family. His friend T is so screwed up, her mother is screwed up, very screwed up, that will be a while other chapter in the soap opera. I’m glad for once the crazies aren’t related unless Sah-kid decides to marry T. So the computer is driving me crazy, the kid is driving me crazy, I stupidly talked to the ex SO which just ended in a fight as I knew it would. He doesn’t want to break up… oh well He should have thought about that a long time ago.
