thought for the day

Tuesdays...are they the unwanted stepchild of the week?

Mondays we hate cause they are Mondays, Wednesday is hump day, Thursday is closer to the weekend, and we love Fridays. What up with Tuesday?

Peace

Congratulations to our President of the United States for winning the Nobel PEACE prize!


Here is hoping that American can now start standing for the Land of PEACE instead of war.

My Afternoon

1 bathroom, plumber coming to fix toilet for 3rd time, finding out toilet tank has a crack, price for the toilet provided by plumber insane, cheaper for me to go to Home Depot and pick out toilet and have them put it in, off with sick child to Home Depot and buy a new toilet, overwhelmed by choices, pick one with help of great sales guy who saw I was overwhelmed. Plumber will be back between 5-7 to install new toilet. Thank goodness I had hip surgery and we had to buy this..so we have a back up pot to piss in..

Fall

things

I think are mean:

1. Seeing someone eat an ice cream cone that you can't have.
2. Someone leaving only 1 chocolate chip cookie in the cookie jar.
3. Favorite writers who post snippets of a book only to tell you that it won't be out until NEXT YEAR.
4. Getting a compliment when you feel your absolute worse..I mean does that mean when I think I look great I really look like crap?
5. Thinking you have lost weight only to step on the scale and realize the number has gone UP

I think are wonderful:

1. Kisses and hugs from my daughter and husband.
2. The fact that my husband enjoys cooking us dinner.
3. Fresh baked chocolate chip cookies in which I have to "test" a cookie from each batch coming out of the oven to make sure they are done.
4. The library that I frequent having new "smut" books that I like to read on the shelf.
5. Air conditioning in my house..especially when the temp outside is 69 and the dew point is 68.
6. The fall leaves starting to show.
7. My new hip is not painful (muscles a bit sore but the hip works great).
8. The fact that we have health insurance to allow me to get a new hip at 40.
9. Instant messenger..so I can "chat" with my sister on a regular basis.
10. and most of all....CHOCOLATE... (and the fact that I am not a diabetic yet).


What are some of your mean/wonderful things?

Guiding Light

After 72 years, my favorite show of all time has ended. It is almost like losing old friends.

Won't be able to crush on: Frank Dicopoulos , Grant Aleksander , Jordan Clarke , Kurt McKinney , Michael O'Learly , Ron Raines, Robert Bogue, and especially Robert Newman .

Will miss seeing: Beth Chamberlin , Elizabeth Keifer , Marj Dusay, and especially Tina Sloan and Kim Zimmer.

Goodbye friends of Springfield. Your light has dimmed but I hope to see you all working one something new real soon.

Okay..I am a sucker but have been a fan for over 25 years.

I wish cancer was eradicated

May he rest in peace and may his wife of 34 years find comfort during this tough time.
