Practice makes perfect.....post on....
My phone has a glitch. After I hang up from talking to someone, my phone random dials someone. I have to be sure to exit the phone mode completely, or next thing I know my phone rings and someone is telling me I called them. Sometimes it’s a total stranger, sometimes someone from my contacts. It’s unnerving.
Think about it: gays have the right to employment, but not conservatives. Scary.
yes, i have to make sure the phone is out of call mode too. i have done that, not strangers, but like my niece or xsbaby’s tutor, and unfortunately it’s been like 5:30-6:00 am when i’m going into my ofc.

Nope, been working every day. I am hoping I can go home tomorrow. The events of this day will tell.
I am sorry to hear about your mother. I pray she is at peace. She chose not to give you marching orders, it seems, so it is up to you. She must have trusted that you would get it right. May God be with you.
Of course,with DR starring.
Good Luck!

I could go on.
I went last week, too!!!!
great answer!
the bridal shower i hosted this weekend went off beautifully, a gorgeous day all the way around. the bride was very appreciative and her friends were nice girls. they stayed 3.5 hours, i was EXHAUSTED by 5pm! Then because xsteen’s future in-laws were in town, we had invited them over for dessert and coffee on Sat PM, and they didn’t get there until 10 pm! they went out with xsteen and xsfiance to the Occidental, which is where the rehearsal dinner will be [we begged off]. Then yesterday they went to church with us, and we all went out for brunch afterwards. I went first thing on Sat AM to the bakery where the kids have decided on for the wedding cake, and got a small one for his parents to try, so they could preview the wedding cake. We had picked up the invitations and the bridesmaid dresses last week, so we were able to have his mom see everything we have done so far, so it was a wonderful weekend, but man alive, i am soooooo tired still.
Sounds like a wonderful kind of tired, though. I am glad it all went well.
and the dogwalker took chan and jules for the day so we did not have to deal with them throughout. they were exhausted too. she has 3 dogs and i think they had an equally great time.
Yeah, but except for the people and diamonds, those are all indeed frozen as I originally said.
I was just saying this morning, that I love the electric fence. Buffy is enjoying this nicer weather and plays outside for long periods of time. I will go outside and walk around the yard and she just races for me when she spots me. She loves to run. Fortunately, when we call her she comes on a dead run for the front door every time.
Well. To be fair...
Vanilla Ice, and Ice-t, are frozen....
Out of the music Business.
it is nice for them to play outside. soon it will be too hot and humid here for Chan. i fear for her trajectory this summer. i have to call today to see if they can tap her again, her belly is full of water i can tell. it breaks my heart, but she is still happy and running around when she is able. i’m still injecting her every other day with the lasix. i have pricked myself with the dang needle MORE than once because she doesn’t like it, of course, and will attempt to jerk away from me.
I"m off to the garden store - my husband finished his incredible landscaping retaining wall for me so I need to finish it off with some beautiful plants!
i love the garden store! still too iffy here to start planting stuff, need to wait until closer to the end of the month.
