On the Road again.....

Actually, I haven't been "on the road" since July so it seems a little strange to wake up in a hotel room again. I wasn't expecting to come back to Seattle any time soon so I had already put details out of my mind...things like names of streets or the people who own the car service we use for the airport...there just isn't any room left in there to fill it with information I won't be using, ya know. Snort. I can accept change...most of the time but sometimes I need a little warning. I was pleased to see the construction in front of the hotel all done and I actually used the Trolley yesterday which was the cause of the construction BUT because of said Trolley, the hotel no longer runs their shuttle service...ACK! Whew, I got my groceries but it was strange. First I used the hotel shopping service for some staples - milk juice butter....ummm excuse me, since when did Country Crock Spread become confused with butter...eeewwww? That was really the only thing that was screwed up though. then I took the Trolley to Whole Foods...after going downtown...not bad, not bad at all.

So what kind of pigs are we raising in the good old US? Huh? Huh? I got back to the room this afternoon after visiting my brother and met the cleaning person just leaving our room - she complimented me on the condition we left our room - hello? I realize we really are low maintenance because we do travel light but still..us? Clean? Please...makes me wonder what messes other people make - well actually I've seen some rooms as we have walked by - shameful piggies.

Remember that eBay debacle last month -I "won" another auction for the same item I was trying to buy before - for less $$ after shipping so let's just hope this goes smoothly. xxxfingersxxx

I found a new juicer I want at Williams-Sonoma...nnniiiiccce... I need this for the 2 oranges I juice every morning, right?

Have a good evening all

Hmm, a juicer? Don't you have a birthday coming up? Now is the time to plant ideas in their ears.

I don't know why, but I tend to clean the room, make the bed before I leave a hotel for the day. I don't want the maids to think I'm not clean.

Kewl that you won. I hope this one goes better than the last.

How long will you be in Seattle? Hey, are your brother and SIL going to, is it Hawaii, this year?

L, DA
