> [@anyrose](#): > > I am disappointed. I’d bought a couple of Braeburns with my Peapod order that was delivered Wendesday - I just bit into one - the inside was all brown and mealy even tho the outside was pristine. I keep saying I’ll never buy fresh produce from them, but then they have a special and I relent. :smack: I agree it’s like they save the worst produce to send with Peapod. Off to get a cut and color. Sooooo overdue. Can’t wait. ---

How am I supposed to remember everything that I want to say? **Rosie’s** sig to all, I guess. And good luck to **phouka** with your appointment today… Yesterday turned out to be a pretty good day. Sometimes, nay, most of the time I am my own worst enemy. :dubious: May have picked up another show for tomorrow. It’s inexpensive and sounds like it might reach at least a small fraction of my target market. Plus, I’d really like to get rid of [my](http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s103/purplkid/trees.jpg)[teapot](http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s103/purplkid/tree.jpg) [trees](http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s103/purplkid/rr.jpg), so if I get the chance I think I’ll go! ---

Good luck with your show, and I hope your teapot trees sell. It’s so hard to tell what people will like. Some years back, I picked out assorted pots I’d made and put Christmas-y arrangements in them - I still have them all. Altho overall, that show sucked for me. I’ve had others where I sold stuff like crazy. Ya never know. I’m showered, dressed, and presentable. I did the dishes and cleaned the kitchen. I cleaned the fireplace insert and I’ve now got a fire going - it’s \*cooooooooold \*out there!! I just finished running the vacuum cleaner in the main living areas. And I’m thinking about assuming the knit position and watching some netflix. I should also toss a load of towels in the washer… Except it’s close to lunch time. 😃 I could call my sweetie and ask if he wants to meet for lunch. Or I could just throw together a sammich. Or I could go out myself and get a burger or something - I do have a couple of errands to run. Decisions, decisions… ---

I don’t feel too good but I can’t tell if it’s allergies or the beginning of a sinus infection (which I am prone to). Anyway, my head aches (just behind my left eyeball) and my eyes kinda hurt. But I’m going out to din-din tonight at a really good place and plan on having prime rib so I better start feeling better. Where’s my ginger ale? ::looks around:: ---

I’m up and just about done with my coffee. I need to start operation tidy up. My son will be home sometime today. I’m looking forward to seeing him because I haven’t seen him since August. Well, I’ve seen him on Skype, but I meant in person. The dogs are just going nuts with their All-Star Wrasslin’ matches today. It’s like they know their boy is coming home. He’s so stoked to see them; he’s really missed these silly dogs. Oh, he’s missed us too, just not as much as the dogs. 😉 We actually had a little snow, but it’s gone now. It’s definitely cold outside. ---

Some years back, I picked out assorted pots I’d made and put Christmas-y arrangements in them - I still have them all. Altho overall, that show sucked for me. I’ve had others where I sold stuff like crazy. Ya never know. You’re right. You never do know. To be fair to my trees they only had one weekend of sales that they were displayed at before my ‘season’ ended. Hopefully between this show and maybe if I make it into one of the two big shows that I’m on the waiting list for, something good will come of it. This seems like a really weird show, only 24 artists/vendors, but some really top notch local entertainment. i’m looking forward to it. And, it’s only $30 and a donation out of pocket, so there’s not much to lose either way. So, in other words, I need to quit playing around on the internet and get to work!!! ---

Are you going to wear \*\*Swampy’s \*\*suggested apparel? 😉 (Why doesn’t that look right? I’m too lazy to use spellcheck) The dishes are washing in the dishwasher and I’ve washed the pots and pans too. I’m crushing the cans and breaking down boxes for the recycle bin. ---

Since I don’t own a muu-muu or mules, no. 😉 It’ll be jeans, a long-sleeve top, and sneaks. And a hoodie, 'cause it’s barely over 40° here. _brrrrrrrr_ Still waiting for his call… ---

Hey y’all. I know I’ve been invisible, but I’ve been writing. I almost gave my mom a black eye last night. She was giving me a backrub and decided to tickle me, which turned into a tickle fight, which turned into her pinning me down and me flailing in all directions. Then she got mad at ME! What did she expect to happen? 😃 Good luck at the show **Sticks**! ---

Back from the stabbing and shocking. Did I mention that I hate EMG and NCV tests? The full analysis has yet to be done, but the doc could tell that I’ve got carpal tunnel syndrome. Eh. I knew that, and it’s not been a problem for 10 years. Oh well - off to the last week of Faire. ---

It’s a grey, humid, hot day here. Trying to fight off the blickies and gardening didn’t help. Cleaned the balcony and laundry closet-- nope. Laundry started, dog walked, car washed-- nuh uh. Organized my eleventy-four wreaths and packed 'em. Niet. Took in some clothes and sewed a cover for the electric blanket-- siiigghh… Think I’ll just lie on the floor and stare at the ceiling. Try not to step on me. Meh… go ahead and step on me. I’ve got the blickies. ---

Please tell me you took a picture of the hat. Today has been a good day. I don’t feel sick any more and I got to sleep in. Sweetie and I finished cleaning the house and it looks very nice. I got sidetracked from my homework by my very messy desk. I finally decided it’s time to deal with the 50 or so pounds of junk jewelry my mumsey has given me. I ended up keeping about 3 pounds of it and I threw away the rest. I also found a sterling chain and a 14k chain along with a crapload of freshwater pearls. My mumsey will be getting those back on Tuesday and she’s very excited. I no longer have bags and bags of tangled jewelry stashed in every corner. Company coming soon. The chili is ready and I have a bunch of fruit, cookies, and chips. Have a good night everyone. I’m gonna be sociable (for once). ---

I’ve read nothing, life is still hella crazy wrt the boyfriend. He leaves for California Tuesday, but it’s being dreadfully unbearable. Having said that, I have decided that from now on I am just gonna focus on my MMP guys, heck with the rl men. You guys know who you are, and if you don’t, well then, you’re being silly! I offer this to my men of the MMP: [Beer!](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AgXx6rd56jM) My female friends, you are at least as important as the guys, virtual chocolate will be sent after I cook the poke chops and mash the N.O.T.s. I am sure that my troubles are minor in comparison with the rest of the MMP, and my thoughts and prayers go out to any who needs them. rosie’s sig to all… Bless you for creating and maintaining that sig rosie dear!
