Good Morning,

I am in total and complete slug mode. I woke up late, got up looked out the door, saw that it was cloudy and humid and looked like it might rain and decided that instead of putting on my sneakers and heading out the door for either a walk or a bike ride or heading downstairs I instead went back to bed. I was just downright lazy this morning and rather angry at myself. I don't know what's going on with not being able to get up in the morning and just this whole mental attitude at the moment.

Ended up actually yacking on the phone with DD again. The weather is not good up her way in MA and a terrible day for moving the rest of her stuff out and picking up her new car. The car ended up coming from a dealership in New Hampshire and it apparently arrived last night. I hope with all the frustration of getting through the financial aspect of this and dealing with what has to go into moving that she has excitement left for buying her first new car.

It's the usual Saturday nonsense around here. I need to make a trip to Costco and then a general cleanup around here. The dog hair is abundant as well as the piles of junk mail and laundry piles galore. So better get at it!

Patty have fun today! Those bars sound really good!

Hope everyone has a super Saturday!

Good morning ladies. I so wanted to get here yesterday but never had the time. Lets back up one minutes though. I worked until 2 on Thursday and said bye-bye to boss. Told him I would see him on Monday for a few hours although I was not scheduled to work since I switched with a coworker and I am working Friday instead. I get this message on my cell phone around 5:30 it's him looking for a pick up/ride from the ferry terminal on Friday morning. Hello! Did the man not listen, of course not. I call him back and tell him I am not coming into the office tomorrow for I have a huge party planned for Saturday and I have lots to do. His response (typical man...) well that is Saturday. Then he said well if you can't work can I at least pick him up. I told him a few things over the cell and said NO WAY! Told him I would see him on Monday morning. Jerk, jerk, jerk.........had to get that out.


Yesterday was spent catching up on laundry, cleaning bathrooms and organizing the house. I ran and got my nails done, picked up my paper goods, ordered balloons, made baked ziti (since my middle sister backed out on me) and had my neice sleep over (same middle sister, argh).....this morning Peapod arrived at 8:30 with my grocery order, that is all put away and the patio is cleaned up ready to go. I just need to run the vacuum cleaner through the den and rewipe down the bathrooms. Bill is in charge of the beer and ice and my food is due to arrive around 3:00. Bill also needs to pick up some table and chairs. Our weather is not looking to good and we rented a 20 X 30 tent for the day. I just hope the weather holds out until later tonight. I decided not to bake the cake since this humidity would not coooperate with baking. My mom/dad are arriving around 1 to help finish setting up tables, and my mom will pick up the balloons, the cake and the salad. Thank goodness for my parents. I have between 50 to 70 people expected......yikes. Wish me luck with this weather, lol. Hope you all have a wonderful day today..........enjoy your weekend!


Karen, just a quick note from me. I would call your sibs on this birthday party situation and let them know you are upset. You have every right to be. But I would go...........it is your mom. Make the best of it and enjoy seeing those family members you have not seen in a while. But I would make it clear to your brothers/sisters after the party how angry you are at them. An by all means do make a grand enterance!
