Hi there ,   how 'ya all doing?


I decluttered ds's room with my cleaning lady today... just wanted to dispose of some of the some 300 magazines he has,,,,,  big job,,,,  I did save and box and label all his old mickey mouse comics!   She gave the room a nice cleaning...  he'll be home in December....


Been raking leaves..... a and it's a big pain in the a.......   since I have no trees on my lot,,, I wouldn't get any leaves if my neighbors leaves didn't blow directly into my lawn... BTW, their lawn is empty   of course,,, the wind blows them into my place.....   ugh....  anyway the clenaing lady will bag them all to be carted away, after we eat lunch.  Of course she doesn't know this yet HAHAHAHAHA, but she doesn't care how she spends her time...


Bought  some lamps to take to Ankara to the new condo.... a 3 foot round ceilig lamps, it's soooo neat.... metal and floral globes and swirls etc.....  toooo cool for words..... also got a matching table lamp it's also really different and will rise oh's and ah's ......   (if I do say so myself!!!!).....  The bought a large hanging lamp in a "rusted metal" look.   WE checked with the airline to see if they have a night before check in and they do .   and lucky that we called because for special handling, you have to call and make arrangement and give them the actual sizes of the boxes a week or two ahead of the flight... (and I thought you could just show up like that) .  One floor lamp is toooooo large so we'll ahve to return it to the store..... oh welll....... will buy sink faucets  for the bathrooms and then start packing on Wednesday...


Ds was here over the weekend and we had an absolute marvelous time..... 


My laptop is off getting repaired....I'm using dh's Sony Viao, it's wonderful  (wonder if he'll swtich with me! LOL)


So what's up with you all?

hello...i have too many trees to count and they are all bald tahnks to the windstorms that rolled through over the weekend.

saturday i got some cleaning done. the little ones were so cute in their costumes at the halloween paty. i had to leave before all the fun began. i heard they had a great time. the school play was good. they do such a great job.

jeremy had his lecense returned to him on saturday- that is a mixed blessing. it was ice not running the roads all day on sunday.. he knows not to ask for the car everyday. but then he an't because i'll have it at work!! besides i put my fot down on the gas $$...he has to replace whatever he uses. if he gets it with half a tank ... so do i!!

i am getting ready to leave for work.hope you all have a fantastic day

pat

We had a nasty windy rain storm on Saturday and lost electricity from about 6:30pm 'til around 10pm. I was at a 12 scrapbooking event so it was great weather to be doing something like that in. Yesterday was cold and windy and we were very l-a-z-y. Today is still windy but not as cold. I put clean sheets on all the beds, folded some laundry, ran a couple of errands, made some Halloween bags for dd's class and after I catch up here, I'm going to go organize some of my scrapbook supplies.
