The Really Bad Cookies and Other Stuff MMP

I was planning on being productive today, but now, I have no motivation

Ya, no wine for me, but I am staying in bed most of today and I am not drinking anymore caffeine. I don’t want to blame it on the caffeine, but it probably doesn’t help either.

Happy late birthday Pearl!

Happy St. Patrick’s Day y’all!

I apologize in advance to all of you in the Great White North, but I’ve opened my windows today because it’s nice out. :smiley: Don’t know if I’m going to venture out today since I’m feeling antisocial and I slept until 11. Yes, I was that tired.

Well, I do have to venture out today. I need to clean off my deck and shake my fist at my car. I’m taking the coward’s way out on car repair and disconnecting my battery to reset my check engine light. (I want to make sure what it’s saying is what’s really going on. $1K depends on it.) However, the ratchet I need to remove the bolt is the ratchet that’s missing and I lack a wrench. I have 498 screwdrivers and no wrench. I want a toolbox for Christmas.

Back from brunch and erranding. A new Tractor Supply opened in Hollywood this week and we stopped by there since we need more fencing for the side yard. I swear, you’d think they were giving stuff away with all the people in there! But they had the fencing we wanted on sale - yay! We also saw a wagon/yard cart to replace our dead one - we’ll be getting that soon.

After that, we ran to Lowe’s for fence posts - they didn’t have the kind we wanted at TSC. The first 150’ of fence is up, and we’ve got 200’ more to go - I hope that’ll be enough. Daniel will probably come over some time this week to clear the way for the rest of the fence. Then we can let the dog loose in the yard without worrying.

I’m about to head to my studio to work for a couple of hours. The rest of the day shall be vegging.

Yay.

How do all?

I am up still caffinating and about to head out to irk. Have a church gig this afternoon, hope I don’t catch fire or get struck by lightning :eek::smiley:

That’s all I have

Happy Sunday all

Jim

Awwwww. feels Loved! Thanks for all the birthday Wishes! You guys are the bestest sniffle

Had a good time this weekend… We went to Springfield, OH yeterday to visit with a bunch of** PB’s **family who had come all the way from Nebraska! We had lunch together at a Chinese Buffet, Hibachi & sushi place up there, then got lost TWICE on the way home! Last Night we went to 3 different places looking to do some karaoke. Sang a couple songs & on the second one (here) They were throwing money at me! I don’t think I’ve ever left a bar with more money than I came in with!

We Spent the night at my Mother-in-law’s & my Sweetie PIe got up AND BAKED ME A CAKE after I had fallen asleep! I Smelled it in the middle of the night & I’m like " I smell bread or biscuits or something" He said he didin’t smell it So I figured I was just loosing my mind & went back to sleep!

So we will have Cake (and Cookies and Ice cream!) later on this evening & we’re going to my favorite Thai place with a couple of friends for dinner & maybe play some cards or something after.
Anyhow HUGS You guys rock & thanks again for the Bday Wishes – It’s Actually today (Yep I’m a leprechaun!)

Speaking of which, **Happy St. [COLOR=“Green”]Pa[/COLOR]t’s! ** I leave you with this.

I’m done claying! :smiley: I threw 4 more pots plus I took the slab that I rolled out yesterday and draped it over a form to make a tray-like object. I also washed the last load of clothes and it’s in the dryer now.

It’s also rainy and ick out, and from the looks of weather radar, it’ll be ick for some time to come. In fact, we’re not supposed to see sun till Weds. ugh.

I think it’s time to assume the knit position and veg the rest of the day away.

Tonight’s stew is simmering on the stove, I got in an 8-mile bike ride, and now I’m considering a nap.

Happy St. Paddy’s Birthday, Pearl!

Sunny turned into overcast this afternoon. Go figure. Now for story time.

We have one of those hot/cold buffet servin’ line thingys in the kitchen at the church house. So, there is one of those roll door thingys that (duh!) has to be rolled up for servin’. So I was doin’ that yestiddy when the lever thingy (thingy is my all purpose technical term for things of which I do not know the name) slipped and the door thingy rolled back down. This caused unsaintly words to come out of my mouth loud enough, apparently, that people who were sittin’ on the little patio just outside the kitchen door to hear. They came in to see what was wrong. By that time I had the door thingy rolled up. I told them what had happened and apologized for my unseemly display. YP happened by just then and as we were all laughin’ he wanted to know the source of the amusement so I told him I said unsaintly words whlst rollin’ up the door thingy. I then said that I suppose now I’d be singled out for “Extra Special Confession” Sunday since the General Confession just wouldn’t get it after usin’ unsaintly words in a Holy place. YP, ever the smartass, told me that there is the little known rite of “Extra Special Confession” for the truly heathen and he’d considered it several times with regard to me. I told him bein’ singled out for “Extra Special Confession” would be like a badge of honor and get it’s own chapter in my memoirs. That’s when he made the remark about just when he thinks I could not possibly get any weirder I prove him wrong every time. :smiley:

Here endeth the story.

Well, you may be producing a whole, entire person, so that beats any plans I could have made…

Wait, is Today St Patrick’s Day? I’ve got friends who have been celebrating since Thursday…

I gotta get out more.

She’s making a Golem?

Cool!

Wait? Is **rosie **pregnant?

no, Apie, Ethil is just confused. It is medically unpossible for me to procreate

Hey, you’ve got the same initials. That’s gotta count for something.

So it* is *a Golem, then!

Look, I’ve got a list of folks Something Should Happen To, Already.

and we’re both female - but two out of three is all you get. :wink:

We are both cute, so there is that :wink:

Hmmm… sunny all afternoon has turned into rain. Will wonders never cease!

I have been exactly unproductive today. Then again, after yestiddy’s cookin’ marathon I deserved an afternoon of sloth. Tomorrow night is men’s night over to the church house. Thus steaks are marinatin’ and beer is chillin’.

So the weekend endeth.

Swampy, here’s a cornbeef & mini cabbage recipe for you to try for next St. Party’s Day. :smiley:

see y’all next MMP. Nitey nite.
