Round-up..

Nah...not like in herding cats or anything remotely entertaining..just stuff that's been going on this week.

Leo is on week 3 of the bathroom re-do. Seems the electrical work and the plumbing of the 4 shower jets gave him fits. I swear we have the quiet-est fan they make; I might even use it! Yesterday we made another trip out for supplies. This time it was for the tile...I think we are now close to done buying the big pieces.

We decided it was safe to remove the snow tires from the cars...I know I know..it's still May and anything can happen but we did have a mild winter.

Things people do in the car when they don't think (or care) if anyone can see them: the person in front of me this morning was grooming his/her hair...by yanking out a couple or three that must have been amok or gray. Goodness..I didn't need to see that. ouch.

It appears as though my lilacs are indeed going to come back...I chopped them all down so Leo could rebuild the sun room. whew...nice to see them poking up through the violets and lilies of the valley...ummm, I think it may be a few years before we see flowers from them.

I'm not happy with the new spam I'm receiving, yeah I'll be putting my retirement funds into those stock tips the spammers are sending me...yup yup yup..I'll get right on that. sigh.

Snort...then there is the Microsoft Lottery winners...for $5 million...it lists all the winners by name but when it comes to my winning listing it says "5. You" Hhmmm I might be suspicious there is something not quite right about this one.

So obviously I'm not making up all the excitement from this week. Have a fine day all...I have a hair appointment soon and I have to go change my shirt before going. I have yet again spilled something down my front. It doesn't look as if I've really missed getting stuff into my mouth very often but when I do, it lands on my front. My shirts are certainly a visual mapping of foods I eat; I thought this didn't happen until one was in the home. Sigh, this morning it was coffee spilled drinking while walking...I used to be more co-ordinated too.

I think you need to find a good Physical Therapist to help you learn to walk and drink coffee, do you know one???? Can't wait to see the new bathroom Lizzie

Hey, you don't have to be old to wear your food. I've been wearing mine for years. When my kids were little I was always dropping food on my chest or dribbling drinks down my front. The kids noticed and asked why I was so messy. I told them that I was't messy. That there dad threw food at me. I thought they knew I was kidding but I guess not because they gave him the nastiest looks and told him to stop it.

For years, after we separated, the kids would joke that we split up because I got tired of him throwing his food at me.

Elizabeth brought me some Green Mountain Coffee for Mother's Day. It would be great except that she brought Island Coconut flavor. Oh well, it still beats Maxwell House.

Happy Mother's Day.
