I’m done playing in clay. I mixed up 6 different colors of slip for a few future projects. I tried one project - not sure yet if I like it - I may be able to save it. So for now, I’m having a little popcorn and lemonade, just because. 😃 I’m sitting down, but my feets are dancing! 😃 ---

Has anyone seen my motivation? I think I left it 3 telcons and 2 presentations ago but am not sure… ---

Laundry is done except for putting it away, pizza is eaten, didn’t have to walk hell-pup today, bedroom is vacuumed, droppings have been cleaned up, I need to put the stuff back in the desk drawers, Sah-dog is happy because he isn’t shut in or out of my room, hounds from hell are quiet. So I will put the clothes away, put stuff back in the desk, put another liner in the trash can oh crap just remembered I have to break down and freeze the meat I bought yesterday then I can log in and go to irk. I get so much more done when I am home alone. ---

Yeah, I’m earning major karma points. ---

> [@FairyChatMom](#): > > So for now, I’m having a little popcorn and lemonade, just because. 😃 This is precisely what the kiddos (10 & 12 y/o) ask for when we have family movie night at home. (Though they also ask for ice cream afterward. Hard to say no, y’know?) Getting ready to take doggies out for round #2. There are about 100 acres of woods behind the house with lots of trails and ledges and stuff that the dogs really like. They can run off leash and burn off energy, which for the new guy (Bandit’s about 3 y/o, but acts 3 \*months \*old) is really helpful. Good for me, too, as it helps\* keep the pounds from accumulating around my midsection too fast. “Helps” as in, ‘the older I get, the more food seems to attach itself to my center and refuse to leave’. Walks sort of keep this process at bay. Sort of. Ain’t right, I tells ya… ---

Heh. I was doing fine until I ate lunch (which someone else had packed for me - yay!). Now I want a nap. Although it’s hard to nod off completely with all these people talking about dancing. What do I remember from this morning? Ah. They had the festival all cleared out of the street this morning. Which is a good thing because I never did learn to take route B and avoid it and its detour. ---

Sketties ‘n meatballs with angel hair pasta, sallit and garlic bread consumed. YUM! Even leftovers for tomorrow’s din so yay. I made some tuna sallit for N.O.L. tomorrow cause I got me a gnawin’ and a cravin’ for some. Round heah it’s often called tuna _fish_ sallit like there’s more than one kind of tuna so one must clarify _fish_. Never have quite understood that. A trillium sounds like a whole lot of whatever that is **Spaz** got up on the mountain. 😃 ---

My hubby is out of town and I kind of like being alone. Is that bad? I do have the dog and cat to keep me company. He left on Sat but pulled the suitcase out and started to pack on Friday evening. So when we went to bed the dog, Louie, started acting weird; standing on my pillow, pacing, panting and just in general miserable. I was up with him most of the night. I walked him about five times thinking he had a tummy ache. It’s went on all night long and at 7 am I finally called the house call Veterinarian. Vet comes immediately, examines him, pokes and prods and even did the old anal gland expression which has been a problem in the past. It was not the problem this time. Vet only charged me $88 waiving the emergency fee. Vet said if he keeps it up call him back and he’ll draw blood but he really can’t find anything wrong. As soon as the airport shuttle picked up hubby Louie settled down and was fine. He has/had separation anxiety. I guess he thought we were both leaving him. He misses hubby but is back to normal. I have permission to take him with me to work as I don’t have a regular pet sitter and would not leave him alone for 10 hours as hubby is usually in and out several times a day. I guess I will never be able to go anywhere without the dog. Little stinker. I had a nice relaxing day off today and finally broke down and went through and organized my dresser drawers. Fun times. ---
