90 to 60 in 24 hrs

September 3, 2008 2 Comments

That would be in fahrenheit folks. Yup, that’s Wisconsin weather. Funny thing, yesterday was the hottest day of the summer. Rosie & I went to pick up the mumster, and all I could think of while the heat enveloped my entire space and the sun totally exposed me, was that I must enjoy every-freakin-UV Ray and drop of sweat because it is going to be snowing before I can say “Gawd I am so hot!” Seriously. And if this season ends the way the last couple of summers have, it’s going to depress me. I L.O.V.E summer.

On another note… I miss having hubby home in the evening. Ok, so this is only the second nite that he’s working, but it is definitely a change. A change in our comfy routine. I think we’ll just be assessing this scenerio through the winter and see what happens by next summer. The good thing is that we have options.

Ok, so is everyone else tuned in for Sarah’s speech? I’m looking forward to it. Onward!

Law of Averages

September 1, 2008 Leave a Comment

Law of Averages. Does that mean that for the last 24 days of me voting once an hour, approximately 12-16 x a day, that I will win that contest? Or is it more like “luck of the draw” or just plain lucky. or not. There’s 4 hrs and 14 min. left which means I get to vote 4 more times. This is to win that contest for the Blinds – the $2,500 in window treatments contest. I’ll let you know what happens, k?

Anyone watch Dexter on Showtime? I just got into it, and wound up watching the entire 2nd season on cable. Kinda weird when you watch so many episodes in a row, but nice because you don’t have to wait to see what happens for another week. Pretty brilliant if you ask me.

Ok, time to get the water boiling. Have a wonderful Labor Day – I heard Jerry lost some poundage. I used to really get into staying up all nite and watching the Marathon… eh, now not so much. bubbyyeeeeeeee.

Before it was as commercialized

August 29, 2008 4 Comments

For the 90th HD reunion, although we specifically went out of our way to avoid the “parade” down to the party grounds, it was UNavoidable getting stuck in a solid mass of Harleys moving at about 5 mph to get down there no matter which way we went.

That was the year when we were at a stand-still and a photographer from In the Wind magazine snapped our photo. Of course that was the year I wore my CFM boots & fishnets. mm-hmm.

Now you have to be invited prior to the event, by mail, by HD, to take part in the Parade. There is a *7,000 bike limit. 7,000. The assemblage begins at 7a.m. tomorrow and the parade starts at 9:00. NO, we are not taking part, thank you very much.

Today is hubby & the boys day for hoo-hah’ing around town. I’m resting up for tomorrow. Besides, need to take Mumsy shopping so she’s not deprived of snacks this weekend.
*if you were here earlier, yes, I said 74,000. If you weren’t, nevermind.

Can I repeat myself ? see below!!

yes, we have no tomatoes

August 23, 2008 Leave a Comment

Lovely, yummy tomatoesI have a sneaky suspicion that my body is doing one of those “since I got older I just can’t seem to tolerate ____ anymore”, the __blank being tomatoes. Do you realize how devastating that is to me?? I love tomatoes. I eat them like apples. I eat them like popcorn. I’ve had at least one tomato sandwich a day since they’ve started ripening. And through the process of elimination, I do believe they are the culprits of my, umm… GI discomfort. Sucks I tell ya.

Other than that… plans for the weekend? mmm, nope. Not a darn thing. Might stop at a rummage sale on my way to Starbucks this morning. I have been very, very cautious and conservative this summer with the rummaging since we don’t need more junk. Just cleaned all of ours up n’ out, you know, with the house stuff.

Must visit Mumsy and Snickers. Probably tomorrow, s’posed to be nicer out then I can put the top down. Alrighty then, c’yall later. Have a good one.

dirty little secret

August 21, 2008 Leave a Comment

My junk drawerSince our kitchen was remodeled, and now the rest of the house, I have been the model 50s housewife. Well, let’s just say that I clean now. More so than I have for the last 10 yrs. Heck, more so than when my daughter was a baby… when I was a stay-at-home mom. When I was still a guilty Catholic. I’m proud of myself. My home is really clean. Except for one little drawer. No, not really a junk drawer as I knew it before. But it’s still my dirty little secret. It’s where I store my coffee bags before I grind the beans. In fact, hubby actually gets peeved when there’s some coffee dust in the corners of the drawer.

Currently I am out of coffee (beans, NOT ground). But not for long. I even have to go grocery shopping today – imagine that! So of course I’ll make a coffee run.

But first I must vacuum. Yes indeedy. Thursday is vacuum day.
(no, I’m not that 50s, geesh, are you serious? ya, and I have my Thursday underwear on too)

Happy Birthday to Rosie-Girl-Baby-Doggie

August 19, 2008 Leave a Comment

Rosie Baby - Our American Bulldog is 2 yrs old!Lest I forget, baby Rosie is 2 yrs old. Updated her baby book… as is usual and customary, the pics are getting fewer and farther between. Isn’t that the way it goes?

Which reminds me. When I was watching the Woodstock movie over the weekend, I was thinking, “man, I wish I had pictures of me & my friends from those days.” But you know, we didn’t exactly carry around cameras like kids do now (well, if they do… and I think they do, if not in their phones). And it’s not like we were around with the fam for the group pics either. Probably the only photos of me around that time are the ones from the detention center… did they take them like they do when you’re arrested? hmm, don’t remember. Well, I’m exaggerating. I just said that for effect. I was only taken in once… or so. Really.

*oh, btw, can you tell by looking at Rosie’s pics that she’s daddy’s girl?
