Marg, is youur summer really coming to it's end? :-( The last 2 years I felt like ours got yanked away hard and fast. I know that I did not like that at all!
I will hafta go read the newest re your unstable cleaner.
Wiped out, yup, this weather is goofy. It is almost 40 at the moment, but I just saw the weather and UG! They said we could have 50 MPH winds, and plumment for minus 5 and minus 35 windchill. We still have all this darned snow- my yard has over 30 inches, and drifts thta some are 5 foot high, snow piles from shoveling etc 8-10 ft high, and since they decided for the first time in my memory to not plow the side roads(they ran out of salt and decided if they plowed it might be worse plus they did not want the plows out in the wind we had?) the roads and parking lots are simply terrible. Yesterday at our courthouse, the parking lot had deep ruts of frozen slush, and my lil VW bug was haveing serious problems. I do not want to see what todays and tonites weather is gonna do with it all! Hope you get your errands done before the we ather turns!
LDM, I can imagine you must be frustrated as all get out. I looked at my last house hone bill, and decided we need to do something about it, becuz the only thng we now use house phone for is dial up to internet, and it is a local number, but the bill was $75!!! (plus we have our internet provider bill, too) Our cable TV has never worked properly, and we pay for ALL the channels offered but we only get basic. husband wants to go to sat but everyone I know with that, I do not like their channel selections. And it seems to go out way too much. We DID get a computer----a new one....and husband put it up this week, but it is slower than even my web tv is! Then something happened and we lost the connection for it and our kitchen house phone. I have no idea what we are gonna do with our services for telephone, tv or internet. I hesitate to get the bundle, becuz I keep thinking gosh, I do not LIKE the company that offers the bundle. I also do not like how much everything is costing. :-( I have no idea why my phone service jumped up so high. The ONLY things showing on the bill are 200 calls from computer to connect us online, and NOTHING else. and until the last 2 months it was nowehre near that high, even tho we used to make calls on the house phone. <sigh>
Hey, the fruit and veg kebobs sound delicious! Enjoy!
TM- our school pics usually now get taken in summer before school year begins. I think I would like it better to have them taken this time of year? Do you like to bake? I am thinking of makeing a new batch of chocolate chip cookies today becuz the ones I made a few days ago did not seem right to me. I love how they smell when cooking. LOL
TL- my son likes to do SIms, too. Yesterday I heard a loud "burp" and said DUDE! was that you? What do you say! He started LOL so hard he nearly fell off his computer chair. Mom, it was my Sims. Oh my. LOL. I did not know they burp! husband thought it was so funny. husband and him were sitting there in the kitchen and they were LOL at me so hard, I finally went to do some laundry, LOL. easy child walked in from the other room and said "HOw Rude" (the way they say it on that TV show-ug whats the name of that show? With um....Bob Saget and and um, whats his name, now on ER? and the Olsen twin girls? ACK! I know this..I know this.........ah well.....nevermind.
I never had homemade granola. Sounds good, I bet it smells yummy, too!
SInce it is gonna be pretty warm (relatively speaking, LOL) I think I might go poke a shovel at the mess on my driveway a bit before the temps do their wicked plummet, altho I think there is some sort of snow or another predicted for all of the next 3 days or so, again, yet, still? Maybe I will throw a load of wash in so I can play with fresh dried clothes when I am done. Get some fresh air and sunshine on me before it is too nasty to do so.
Yesterday I ran into a store for something (oh yeah, darn! I wound up forgetting I had already bought the newest Patricia Cornwell book, and bought a 2nd copy, yeesh!) anyway, I bought some seeds for the gardens. difficult child saw a cute little garden decoration, and she bought it for me.
so I am now thinking SPRING!
And easy child has a couple errands for me to help her with for her upcoming trip to Ireland. (I am anxious, she is excited, LOL- I have never flown and have never been out of the country, heck going out of the state is a big deal for me, LOL)
ANd a good day to anyone who follows in behind me. (I think I need more hmj)
