Good Morning

Love the picture this morning. I love the summer fruits. In fact I like the healthy things to eat...too bad I like the unhealthy things just as much!

It's Monday again (already)and we've had more rain and I thought it was clearing up a bit but there are still lots of gray clouds and they did say we might have more showers later on. And just in case...there's more rain predicted for later in the week. We've already had close to 5" of rain.

Our day yesterday was very nice. My SIL seemed to enjoy it. DD is still talking about having the family here for DH's birthday on Saturday. I was getting very annoyed with her yesterday. She tells me well we only need the living room and dining room. I don't have a living room at the moment. Not to mention the house is filthy and really no way of cleaning it at the moment. The yard is a mess for any type of outside gathering and if it rains. Not to mention when exactly am I supposed to shop and cook when I'm not going to be around for most of Saturday. I really don't get it...for a few moments I thought I was talking to an XY!

It's back to the working world this morning. But only 5 working days and then a week of vacation! Our new associate starts this morning and I really hope this guy is able to jump in with both feet and start running and hopefully not out the door! He's already got a stack of files with memos attached to them before he even walks through the door this morning.

Dinner is already made and ready to be popped in the oven when I get in after work. I made mini meat loaves. Hopefully they turn out well! I'm hoping the weather cooperates and Otto and I can get out for our walk. Now that the storage closet is available again I want to get DD's stuff in there until she can get over here and sort through it. She has clothes to go through and I hope to weed through a least some of that this evening. Hopefully some more of DS'stuff will also go across the hall. I'm sure there will be some bad words used hooking up his surround sound system. Happens every time he gets a new one or moves it. Poor thing had to watch TV with just regular old TV speakers last night!

Nancy-I'm glad to hear that your friend is on the mend. Hope he continues to improve.

Well better get a move on and go find that magic in the magical kingdom of work!

Hope everyone has a magnificent Monday!

Susan

Good morning ladies.........I am running late as usual. My fault though, had a busy weekend and I was up later last night then I should have been. Pushed Bill out of the bed and stayed out of the way while Katie and him got ready to leave. Stayed out of the way by way of curling up in the middle of the bed on my tummy, lol. I dragged myself up finally at 7:45, made my bed, turned to washer/dryer on and made myself some tea. I had to go online and pay our mortgage and if I did not do that immediatly I know I would have forgotten later. I sent everyone the pictures of my cakes, hope you enjoyed them. I also sent you last night the pictures from yesterday Christening in CT. I was so proud yesterday having all three of my children there. Sometimes life gets too busy and we tend to push off things, my kids knew it was important to not just me but their aunt they be there and they came through. We all had a wonderful time. Katie and I drove up on Saturday night and delivered the cake to the resturant and then we headed over to the hotel where we met up with my middle sister and her two kids. We had dinner in our room (pizza and wine) and then we went swimming. The pool was heated and it was just the 5 of us. We swam until 11, it was fun. Bill and the kids met us at the church. My inlaws came too. Nice day........by the time we left CT and got home it was around 5ish. Bill and I changed our clothes and sat outside on our front porch with a drink and just relaxed and talked. We ended up closing our eyes and took cat naps out there. Rob, Katie and Stacey took the bikes out for a ride while we dozed.


Today we have more rain, and I believe that is the forecast for the entire week. So sick of it. Depressing really. Work today and a full day. It will be a full staff which makes it better for me to get everything done I need to. Katie has after school regent reveiw for science, that will be the last one since she takes that regent on Thursday. Today is actually the last full regular day for her. Tonight she has her chorus banquet to attend. Wednesday is her SS final and that is the class she is failing, I am worried she might have to do summer school for it but if that is the case there is nothing I can do about it. She is old enough to figure it out and well maybe on summer of sitting in a classroom 4 days a week might be enough to make her understand how important it is to try and work harder during the year, right? Busy week here, with Katie's finals, her BF Megan is in town and just plain catching up here. Have a good day ladies I really need to move my butt now. Catch up later!

Magical is way better than Manic (Monday)!


Ackk...just got off the phone with one of my friends, she was headed to class and (new class, new instructor) and her IPOD was not working right, and her itunes wouldn't burn a CD.

Good afternoon! Wouldn't it be wonderful to wake up to a bowl of fruit like that already made every morning. I definitely would have no problem getting the minimum of fruits and vegetables for the day. Hope you magical powers are right and we all have a fantastic week, PATTY.

Have any of you seen Phyllis on Facebook? Doesn't she look fantastic? Nice to know she is getting ready to come back to the states.

Nice to see your friend is improving, NANCY. Poor guy has a long road ahead but he seems to be on his way to getting back his health. Glad "the first" ride is over and things will get back to normal eventually, especially once your friend is home.

Sounds like DD needs to make reservations for the birthday party, SUSAN. That is a lot to assume with the things going on at the house. Hopefully, things will work out and you get a break on this one. I hear you counting down until your vacation.

The cakes you make are amazing DEBBIE! You are really talented. If you ever want to make some extra money, it is something to fall back on...I would be one of your customers. Hope things work out with Katie, but one summer of classes may make her take things more seriously. I love the way you are thinking of the whole situation. Good luck!

You had some funfilled weekend DONNA! Your niece's comment/reaction was priceless. Everyone needs a bread every so often. Your post really got to me Donna. Thank you for your words of encouragement. Things will be so much better when this is over and done with. Thank goodness DD is fighting MAD and it is getting her through all of this. My weekend was a little better and I was able to recharge my batteries and gear up for the week ahead.

So sorry to hear you are having a hard(er) time lately, MARGIE! That is awful about your new AC unit cr*pping out on you in that heat! We are still waiting for warm weather..I think we are living in Seattle. Great news about your surgery and biopsy report. Now you can breathe a big sigh of relief. Hope things get better.

Try to enjoy the boat as much as you can, DEB/MN, so you don't feel like DH went over board. Hopefully he doesn't go overboard...LOL. Sorry...I am in a bad mood too today. Good luck with the ankle!

Well..going to check on DD...the father of her children left Thursday and didn't come home until after 10 on Sunday. We just call him father of the year. He didn't even tell anyone where he was. Grrrrrrrrrr....

Deep breaths....Deep breaths....Good thing I went to the gym this morning.

Talk to you all soon...

Grace

Keep on keeping on!

I know it is a waste but I have a CD burned for every class as well as putting it on my ipod. Sometimes I can't figure out the stereo equipment so I can use either one.

I was always told that the tool that is used to take off a cast cannot cut skin. I guess that is falsehood. Poor little guy. You are good friend to be there for them.

Have a good one...
