Nothing much

Hi, I try to read the posts here almost every day. Trying to get to know everyone and sometimes I even post a reply. I keep thinking that today will be the day something interesting will happen and I can write and tell everyone. Well, today isn't that day.

So my post will be about nothing much. Just like Seinfeld.

Got my car back on the road this past week, after quite a long time.(needed a new engine) So the fun part started, trying to find new insurance. Be very happy you don't live in New Jersey when it comes to insurance. It is so high now and if your driving record is less then perfect, the shock will knock you down. I'm still trying to clear my head.

The car did pass inspection. Thank goodness!!

No work this week. Maybe next. I need to find a real job, but what?

The dh is in his favorite position, asleep in front of the tv. Never did bathe the dogs like he said he would. I, however, did scoop the backyard so that you can walk there safely. LOL

I dusted my elephant collection. The herd is growing quite large. Every now and then, I rearrange them and pretend I'm on safari.

Did the cleaning and laundry. Watched two of my favorite shows, Monk and Peacemakers. I have crush on Tom Berenger.

Guess that's it. See not much. Carol

Hi Carol. Your day sounds a lot like mine, just the usual, nothing exciting, life getting in the way of what I would really rather be doing. I love the safari idea. I do things like that too, with David Winter cottages. I change their positions in my cabinet to "shake up" the sleepy little village. LOL

I'd say that's a pretty interesting day. Some days out in the country we just watch the grass grow, or right now watch the grass die.LOL! You don't need any earth shaking news to post. It's just nice to hear what everyone's lives are like.

I see down below that you're also into Janet Evanovich's books. They must be especially interesting since you live in "Joisey"! LOL!

Hope to see more of your posts. I've been away for awhile but have recently started back posting. This board is addictive!

Boy, when you talked about scooping the backyard, I could really relate. What a chore. I only have two dogs but obviously I feed them way too much!

I know what you mean about not having much of anything interesting to say. My life is made up of work and working on my house. Tehre's just so much you can say about chipping up branches even though it takes up a lot of my time. And I don't think anyone wants to hear anymore about all the mold I found behind the cupboards or what was under the fridge although both these things have made a big impact on my life. Ah, well...we do what we can. One of the nicest things, though, about this board is the way the ladies can jsut share the little everyday things that are going on...makes it feel like we're all right there.

Hope you're having a great day...maybe this is the day something really interesting will happen!

Hi Carol! Know what you mean, not much happening here either. So you're in the job hunt too? It's a zoo out there! Good luck, maybe we'll both find a really good one this week!

Take care and hang in there!!

Hugs, Pam
