Went in the pool then on my way to church gave the juniper to my neighbor who wanted it. Afterwards, had dinner and then watered the new plants (hoping they’ll live) I have one bathing suit (chlorine resistant) that I wear to the Y and one that I wear at home. I think I’m going to switch them because the one I was wearing…

Pool temp is 83 so I'll go in. Michele NC

Tracey – I go to the MD about my foot this coming Wed. I looked this up and “an employer is not required to pay a minimum number of hours”. Oh well. I’ve pretty well decided that I like the job too much to make too much of a fuss. This “labor” thing seems to go in cycles. So I’ll just wait it out. What to me really doesn’t…

Welcome Tory and Callie. Jess said that the foster family said that one of the cats we’re getting from her is still nursing. Jess wants to follow up because at 8 weeks they shouldn’t still be nursing. Vince wants to pick up the ones from the vet but I think we should wait until we can get the ones from Jess. This way we…

Forgot to post a pic of my most recent ceramic Michele NC

Had a nice trip to Steve’s. Found a ceramic place near his house and just HAD to check it out. Got a “welcome” sign with a cat on it. Don’t know when we’ll get to painting it, but we will. Yesterday did Jillian Michaels 6 Week Six Pack DVD (new one for me) and then did some exercises in the pool because had a dermatologist…

I talked to the store manager at BK today. She said she doesn’t have a problem with me doing bacon, that it really isn’t difficult. The way we left it was that we’d play it by ear. If she needs me to do that on any day, I would and then just do the tomatoes and onions. I think that the guy who basically did Jerry’s job…

BK called Tues and said I didn’t have to come in since there wasn’t much prep to be done. Hmmm...this happened last week, too. So tomorrow when I go in I'll talk to the store manager (assuming she’s there) and suggest that I do the bacon (which probably only takes a few hours) and then work on prep for at least the…

Worked then went to Lowe’s Hardware and Uhaul to get boxes. Took my walk around the neighborhood. Rebecca – at that price, you can live with the cabinets and floor LisaSkuraton – welcome M – I thought Vince read that in one of his “uncle John” books. Me bad. Maybe it was him asking me which continent didn’t get tornadoes.…

Was able to do Jackie Xtreme Timesaver DVD before we left for Denise’s. The remote fart machine was a big hit with PJ. I swear his finger was glued to the remote….lol His graduation was nice. Met their new dog. Boy, is he going to be BIG. You should see his paws! Of course, he’s a puppy and does things like goes in the…

Went to ceramics and picked up my fish. Pip – feel better soon Tracey – I, too, miss the days when everything was on network TV. Ahhhh...the almighty dollar! Annie – so glad for you and everyone else that the doc said your dad shouldn’t drive and you were able to get the keys. Hey, if you have to walk with your dad, just…

Worked then had bowling. Vince went to the bank while I was continuing bowling. Came home and got most of the food that I’m going to take with me ready Barbara – you know, we’ve thought of the same thing re: Shadow and other cats. I wonder if the mother instinct would kick in when she saw a kitten. The only kitten we’ve…

Cut the grass. Didn’t do a fantastic job, but at least we won’t come home to a jungle. Called the gal who used to do the bacon at BK. I’m toying with the idea of asking if I could do it only so that I would get extra hours. That is, as long as it doesn’t take hours and hours. Somehow, I don’t think it does but I wanted to…

Remember those four kittens I was telling you about that the vet found? Well, a few weeks ago we had asked Jess to be on the lookout for orange male cats (she volunteers at a shelter – something to do with helping to pay her student loans). Anyway, she called and wanted to facetime with Vince (huh?). It seems that they had…

Did Cathe High Step Workout DVD. Also did part of her Hardcore Extreme DVD but decided that I really don’t like it, too high impact and too many fast changes of moves for me to follow. Then went for a walk around the neighborhood. Iced the cake for tomorrow, now getting yogurt ready for the IP, then I’ll probably start to…

The a/c guy was here. As I returned from my walk, he told me that it was a plugged drain so he cleaned out the stoppage and it seems to be fine now. Vince was thinking that he may not be able to go see PJ (I would go) since he needed to be home for the a/c guy, but that’s not the case. He’s Mr. Pessamist whereas I’m Miss…

Just work. Pretty soon I’ll take a walk. Lector at the church tonight. Went to WalMart because Jess is coming tonight and I’ll make a casserole and needed some ingredients. Sherry – if you’re looking for an actively posting group, hold onto your hat. Seriously, this thread moves f-a-s-t. What kind of exercise do you like…

Well, I made those brownies. I have never in my entire life had such terrible brownies. Even tho I sprayed the pan, they stuck like nobody's business. I for the first time ever threw out batter and some of the brownies. I decided to make this "tunnel of fudge" cake that I know turns out. Just hope Vince doesn't have…

No, I haven’t fallen off the face of the earth! Did Aging Backwards DVD and then took the water aerobics class on Wed. That night we met Jess and Colby at Cracker Barrel where we got Shadow since she needed to go to the vet for an ultrasound the next day. Vince took her for the ultrasound. Vince found 4 of the kittens. 2…

Update: So much for stringing popcorn. Vince has decided that we should cut the grass. Hopefully, it won’t be windy Tuesday (tomorrow is bowling and then ceramics) Only heard from Jess today. No missed calls so I know Denise didn’t call while we were out cutting the grass. Michele NC

Did a Reebok Bootcamp DVD then went for a walk around the neighborhood. Came home and made chocolate bran muffins. It’s not windy so I’ll probably work on stringing popcorn (yes, it’s that time of year!) Walked to Dollar General Friday to get some towels to make the crochet towel toppers. They were ½ price (and $1 each…

Kim – that dog made me laugh out loud. I only laughed harder when you told us that the owners didn’t want to violate his “civil rights”. Glad you got a good tip, you deserve it Allie – sooo glad you had such a great trip. Prayers for Tracey and Kyle. I must say, tho, that I’m worried (a tiny bit) about Tracey with Kyle’s…

Worked then went to the soup kitchen. I’d had it written down that I didn’t need to be there, but I totally forgot. They had enough people so I left. Going to go to Food Lion to get Vince bananas and some ground turkey (Vince probably won’t know that it’s in the meatloaf) Vince said that our vet called. Seems he had been…

Worked yesterday then went to Aldi. Worked today and went to WalMart especially to see if they have these eye drops because the one WM hasn’t had them for a while. Well, this WM didn’t either. Came home, walked around the neighborhood, now making a chocolate cake for Vince They’re having some sort of train show Saturday at…

Rita – I’d love to read your story. You are such a good writer. I think Wendy’s is about the only fast food place that has salads (boo). Glad the move went well Almost all of the time I take my own food to a fast food place. Vince is embarrassed but I just don’t like most of the food. If I have all the fat in a hamburger…

Somewhat of a rant below: Kylia – neat pictures. Thanks for sharing Heather – congratulations M – I remember (when I was a kid) leaving my aunt’s house in PA to go home to NJ. She would pack a cooler for us with sandwiches. Good memories M - I'm glad you understand. Now just imagine two large dogs and a rambunctious child…

It’s interesting...at work Saturday I told the manager that they didn’t have any tomatoes for Monday. Seems the store manager somehow got some, I’m thinking from another store. I told her today that I used up all of those tomatoes so she doesn’t have any until they get their delivery tomorrow. Also, she doesn’t have any…

Did a cardio and Strength Circuit Workout DVD. This is for the rebounder. Keeper Rained really hard last night but now it’s just cloudy so went for my walk around the neighborhood Carol – prayers for your husband Did a load of laundry so now have to make the bed Think I’ll go paint (start to) my Tigger. I have black paint…

Worked then went to Big Lots for some of these protein bars. A lot of the ones they had yesterday were gone, but I did get a few. Then had to go to WalMart since Vince needed milk for tomorrow. Did a bit of other shopping, got the boxes for PJ’s birthday gifts (it’s today). Church tonight. Made cod for later in the week…

Worked then stopped at Big Lots. They don’t carry boxes for presents. When I go to WalMart Sunday I’ll look. Then the soup kitchen. In a few I’ll probably take Jess’ dog for a short walk (I know she’s concerned about him getting overheaated, but I don’t think that’s going to be a problem.) Evelyn – when it rains, it pours.…
