I was playing "Brothers In Arms-Earned In Blood".I shut it off to come
on the boards and play a little Mahjongg only to find the arcade is down.
So it's back to the Xbox for awhile.

Finally, finally, finally, after jumping through every bureaucratic hoop we have finally gotten my mother her supplemental health
care.  She is 84 with advanced dementia.... but does she really need adult day care?    duhhh!    More than enough to make you
despise what passes for "compassion"  Anyway, we can now sign her up for additional days in day care(she still lives at home), above
the two that we have her in today.  If anyone cares to ask it is 125 dollars a day if you pay out of pocket, that is a six hour day. Now
she can have up to six days a week, seven hours a day, and up to 2 weeks overnight respite. 

^ Im sorry to hear about your tough time...but i"m glad you have gotten more care. I understand this kind of thing and it's terrible to go through...I hope it all works out.

Today is Friday, so I'll be spending the day at home! Except for when we go out later for dinner.

I volunteered today.

Blue Velvet is being shown at a theater in the city so I bought tickets.
I haven't been to the movies in a long time and I haven''t seen this film on the big screen.

^ Hope you enjoy the show, Kkay. 8)

I remember seeing that when it first came out.  I really only remember Dennis Hopper writhing on the ground calling
his mother, and Isabella Rosselini had visible cellulite, making every woman in the theater sigh with relief :)

I will be stopping at the sporting goods store on way home from work to pick up new softball cleats and pants to play in. My first tournament of 2006 is tomorrow, the winter state championships. It's a fairly small tourney since it's still winter, maybe 24 teams from nor-cal. I enjoy playing, and really enjoy winning and hope this 50year old bod can hold up for one more year of competition.

thanks Jeff, the thing with tournaments is it's usually a 2-4 game guarantee, and we could play 2 to 7 games in one day depending on how they set up the bracket. It's early for that much play. I could play 4-5 games if we're winning, and be ok physically, anymore and I'll be needing the advil and the hot tub afterwards. Some tournies are double elimination, you lose two and you're out. This could be my farewell tour at 50, we'll see after tomorrow

^ Get some spring in your step Mike and play well.

Me I'm gonna go for a walk when I've finished work at noon.

Jake is in Special Olympics Basketball Tournament. Gotta wake him up and get going.  It's in Worcester.... Chuckie Country  :)

As for me, I was supposed to go hang out with my sister today, but her furnace went out, and plans might be changing. I hope they get it fixed so we can at least go to lunch or something. We don't see each other a whole lot, and I miss her.  :(

Well, it was great. but I have to say your post was in my mind as I watched, and I saw exactly what you were talking about...
there the poor woman is, half naked and crying, and I"m laughing to myself.

goes to show you , no one's perfect...even her!

Taking it easy.

Been e-mailing/IMing with my sisters all day about my mother (whom I hear is doing ok but haven't talk to her myself), arranging to send her flowers, etc.

For those of you who didn't read the other thread, my mother had a hip replacement yesterday.



Cat

I vacuumed and rearranged the living room and dining room furniture.

well...I slept in because I wasn't feeling well....then we went and got Vaughn's hair cut....ran some errands and picked up a few things that we have been meaning to buy (a new gas grill, a patio set, a bed for Vaughn, and a new booster seat for him for the car)...then we went to my mother-in-laws for a visit.

Much the same as yesterday.

thanks, I'm back from 3 games played today & we lost all 3, but it's our first tourney of the year and the teams we played were in their 3rd or 4th so they had an advantage. I Like that our team is cohesive, still had fun despite the losses, and are optimistic about our next outing in 2 weeks. I came home, cleaned up and then went to poker game at friends house and did better there, took 2nd place and won 20bucks, but it cost ten to play so I made ten dollars. and now I'm on the board for a little while.  :)

A bath then out walking down to Brighton  ::)

I thought I'd play a bit of Copter in the morning, then maybe an hour or so of 3D Frogger, then I'll spend the rest of the day playing Avoider...lol

Doing some laundry right now. I already went to church this morning.

We didn't go to church this morning because I wasn't feeling well. We did some things around the house. Chris put up Vaughn's new bed, and then he and I worked at putting the grill together. In a little while we are going to go over to my parent's house for a visit.

Finish this bit of homework, then come back on here and chill. Think i'll head off to bed early tonight, i'm finding it hard to keep my eyes open... an it's only 8:40pm!

Well we did the Special Olympics games in Worcester.  Jake was in the Junior Basketball tournament, and we placed 6th out of six. 
Absolutely outstanding job.  ;D  It was a lot of fun though and the kids had a great time.  Everyone made baskets, and the team
stayed in a hotel and hung out at the arcade.  "Wait 'til Next Year"  :)

Went to church, got a haircut, bought dinner to go and ate at home and now getting ready for my first day of work! Hopefully it doesn't siphon too much of my time here.

Since tonight is already tomorrow...

Go to Iowa and study for the next chapter in Psych.

Sounds like you need to focus more on your studies Mikey my lad if you don't wanna blow your chances on that Journos' degree at University - get yer head down dude.   :)


Me I'm gonna get a final assignment finished, have a telephone tutorial at 10am,

then go clean this place........I suppose. 

Going to the Union Hall.  Still doesn't look good, but with the warmer weather things will, hopefully, pick-up. :-\\

Hope your mother makes a good recovery Cat.  It took my m-i-l about 6 weeks to get fully mobile.

Well....so far, cleaning up the mess that Vaughn keeps making....this kid is driving me up the flippin' wall!!! >:(  Then, going shopping a bit later, then tonight we have a meeting to go to.

Thanks. I talked to her today. She sounded weak but she said she wasn't in too much pain. She said that she was tired. So, I won't call her again for a few days. My sisters and I are trying to coordinate who will call what day so she doesn't get over-whelmed by phone calls. I was on "duty" today.  ;)

if hanzel und gretyl ever tours again, i have a hunch they'll probably kick things off in new york. in which case i'm likely to be in town and you're bound to see me skulking around in your backyard and stuff.

i went to NYC once, in 1995. at one point me and my friend were all, where's the empire state building? i can't find it anywhere. so we looked and looked and found a cop and asked. and he's, is that all you want? and we say, yes. and he's, are you sure you don't want anything else? and we say yes. and he points up to the sky and there's this MAMMOTH SKYSCRAPER THAT LITERALLY BLOTTED OUT THE SUN.

we were tourists that day, i tell ya.

Had the eyebrows done today.  There is something strangely exhilarating about having hot wax poured on your face, then have
the hair ripped out by the folicles.  ::)

I understand-I don't like shaving either and only do it when I HAVE to (like when I am going to be wearing shorts/a dress or when I became a "hairy beast" and can't stand it). Hubby shaves only every 3rd day or so when his scruff becomes too much.

School, work and the usual rubbish that goes with it. Oh! something new today, actually - I spray painted something for the first time ever today in DT (Design Technology). Nothing to get too excited over, just the face for the clock i'm making.

He's lucky.

not gonna do much, a little inthe00s activity, maybe a "light" workout. my friends used to tease me many years ago when we were all members at a gym, because I'd work out maybe 30min, then go have a light beer and hit the sauna and hot tub. perhaps if i get up off my bum, a run on the treadmill. I gotta get into better shape quick!

I went out to dinner and had some delicious fish n chips and a few baileys & coffees. :)

My "cardio" & "weight training" is carrying overfull baskets of clothes up and down 18 steps a bazillion times a week...."lunges" are bending over to load and unload the dishwasher (actually, I do one dish at a time to get more "reps" in ;))....I borrowed a friend's pedometer to see how many steps I actually DO take in an average day and I averaged about 15000/day :o
omg, that just about qualifies you as a fitness guru  ;D  now watch some woman come out with a home fitness video based on your workout. seriously, housework is a workout and I do my share. I worked out with weights and resistance bands and can barely type because my arms are all pumped up.

Yeah, waiting for a table for two isn't usually bad... but there were 11 of us... :-\\

And good fish and chips are hard to find here too.  There's only like two good places to get them that I know of around here.

It's already appeared in some womans magazine as an easy way to work out at home.  They also suggest getting some food cans out of the cupboard to do some bicep curls.

well....doing some cleaning...picking Chris up from work..picking my mom up from work (she didn't have a car today)....Chris is going out with a few friends...and my mom, Vaughn, and myself are going shopping this evening for a bit.

Call the agent to see if there is work(there isn't), maybe go to the library, go look at a daycare facility for my mother, and Tuesday is
Burger King day for the boy.

Have a Dr. Appt. today, which means, get there on time and still end up waiting as usual, since I think they make at least 3 appts. for the same time.  Why, why, why do they do that I'd like to know?  :-\\

It's "Town Meeting Day" so we are going to vote. Not too sure what/who is on the ballot except for the usual groups seeking funding. I think there is a primary or two but what office, I'm not too sure. After we vote, we have an appointment with our CPA-yes, it is that time of year again.  ::)

Nothing eventful...I already had one class and I got another one in about an hour. Later on I'll probably study for midterms which I have this Thursday.

Been to school, nowt happened. I'm trying to cut down on the "pointless sleeping-in and missing days" habit i've got myself into recently, although truth be told it didn't exactly get off to a flying start when I slept in yesterday morning and missed period one.

I held an Academy Award ("Oscar") trophy. Those things are blasted heavy!!!!

The truck was sputtering a little so I had to give it a tune-up.
Plugs, wires, just the basic things, Man I hate doing it,I'm a
welder not a mechanic but it's alot cheaper doing it myself.

I went and bought a neat little gadget so I can walk both of my dogs on one leash. :)  No more getting tangled in leashes!!!  Yay!!

Nothing much until later...we have to go grocery shopping today.

Go visit an adult day care to see if it appropriate for my mother. 

Freak out over spreading my self too thin- I am dedicated to three events tongiht and I really just wanna go home.

At the moment I'm waiting to show some prospective students and parents around the lab.  It appears thought that they have been given the wrong door code so I might be waiting a while.

I know they found the canteen and insist on staying there?

Been to school, came home and had a nap. Since then I have done a bit of reading for homework and now i'm sitting chilling out listening to stuff and doing things

I just finished loading my kiln (it's very full this time)...

I'll start firing it in the morning... :D

I went to my day program which was boring as hell. :P

Going to scan and print a few pictures of the family and put them in frames for my daughter to take to her new house next week. 

I got off work early so we can go to dinner for our friends birthday and then to his house after for cake and ice cream and presents for him.

Nothing eventful...just had my two computer courses and worked on a few computer lab assignments. In one of those classes we're currently learning how to do all kinds of things on MS Word 2003, like formatting text in certain ways. I have five more things to do and I have to get them done by next Wednesday; however, I can only work on 'em there, since we don't have current software at home. We have a rather primitive Windows operating system, with rather primitive MS Office application programs. 97! There are several things you can do with the current version of Word that you can't do with older versions of it; hence, I need to go somewhere that has the appropriate softwares.

Also I need to study for the midterms I have tomorrow. I think I'll do well on them.

She's moving already? :o  It seems like yesterday when you told us they had gotten approved for the loan and found a house :-\\

They sign all the paperwork monday, so I'm assuming they'll be moving in shortly after. The house is already empty, so they won't have to wait for the former owners to move out. I'm tempted to put a "sad" emotican in this post somewhere, but I am really happy for her. . . . . really.  ;)  :) 

Spent yesterday looking at day care facilities for mom, found a good enough one who will be able to provide care six days a week and
offers services for bathing and grooming.  This is fantastic, we will be able to keep her at home a bit longer, as opposed to putting her
in a nursing home.  :)

That must be a weight off your mind Danoota.

Although we are not at this point yet I can see that it will arise in the next few years with my in-laws.  I've already had one lot of paid time off to care for f-i-l when mother in law was in hospital.

Had one midterm today...the next one is at 11 A.M. (Pacific time). The one I had already, there were some multiple choice questions, fill-in-the-blank questions, and short answer questions. I don't think I'm gonna do better than 88% on it, since I left a few of 'em blank.

I'm firing my kiln today...but as I'm still pretty sick, I'll be taking it easy throughout the day!

When I woke up this morning I felt rather weak, and thought maybe I was getting the flu...but I've since revived a bit and am just gonna try not to do much today (if the kids will allow me that)...

Thanks for your kind words, Jeff.  :)

I fancy spelling now?

I volunteered today.

I had my midterms today. On the second one, there were 50 multiple choice questions, most of which I knew the answers to right away. The others, I had to think about for a moment. Next week I should find out how I did. I feel confident.

Went to school, came home, watched some TV, went to work, came home, watched some TV, came on here. Going to bed soon coz i'm exhausted

Sounds like you had a productive day, Dak. :)

Didn't do too much today...went over to my parent's house for awhile this afternoon and then came home and prepared dinner.

Yippee!!! work is over, i get to go home and clean house for my poker party tomorrow night.

House is clean, My friends are coming over tonight at 8pm to play Texas Hold Em poker. We'll crank up some tunes, enjoy each others company and eat some food and play cards. I have to work first but it should be an easy day. My wife may try to get into the poker game with the boys and try to win all the money. She's a good card player and a little too cocky sometimes. I'll have no mercy for any opponents at the table.  8) her included!

^ Have fun with the games, Snap and Pontoon are my limits   ;D

I just got back from a drive to a place I'm having an interview on Monday, and wanted to check it out before I go, by all accounts it's a nightmare place to park - and my interview is early morning   :(

Working on and off and studying today.

^ hope your interview goes well on Monday.

I've not had that many job interviews but I remember how nervous I was last time (about 8/9 years ago!)

Not sure what sort of job you are going for.  If it is with a company then finding some background information out before you go is always useful.

I don't think I've had any in the 25 2/3 years that I've been alive. :o

But two years ago, I did attend a workshop about job interviews, which provided tips on how to make a JI successful. The Dos and Donts, appropriate attire, etc.

I volunteered today.

It was a real nice day today so I picked up Jake at school and we went for a ride to Revere Beach(the oldest public beach in the USA).  We were walking along the shore and I found a bottle(plastic) all wrapped up in plastic and taped up in a plastic back.  I was all excited, it isn't very often you find a message in a bottle.  So I took it home and got the scissors out and cut all the stuff away and it was a bottle of "Restless Oil".  I googled it and found it is some kind of potion used to cause people to break up, or be in turmoil.  There is some ritual attached.  I figured the best thing to do was to toss it, scissors and all.  That bad kharma stuff always backfires on me.  ::)

While at work, I opened a box of castors (wheels for machinery) and I
found them wrapped in a newspaper.The Pittsburgh Post Gazette which
contained a New York Times Crossword Puzzle,undone, so I spent part of
the afternoon doing the crossword puzzle.

Planned to go to town with my mates this morning, but heavy rain scrapped that idea, so we all went up to the nearby caf

Today I just stayed at home. I managed to do a little studying.

Today Vaughn and I went out to lunch with my mom (she was off work today)...and shopped for a bit. We then picked up Chris from work and came home and cooked out on our new grill...it was quite delicious! ;)  I am now posting...but I have to pack my overnight bag for our weekend trip soon.

Picked up girl scout cookies.  Tonight I need to separate them out so they can be delivered and removed from my kitchen.

Worked all day but "worked out" at the gym in my job during lunch break, so hopefully I can reach my weight goal in a couple months.

Almost 12 noon here in the UK and I can finally escape work!!!

I'm going to collect Chris and go look at the old planes at the airfield, then have lunch.

that we like to go through.

Sounds fun - Boston was one of the lovliest but coldest places I ever visited in the US, mind you we went in December/January so we did ask for it!  I love the park in the centre were they have ice skating and such, also that lovely food market/hall set up in an old church type building, in the shopping area, I forgot the name now.
We stayed at a hotel on the river near a boat club I think, we had to walk quite a way into town, over a big iron bridge and very old historic houses.

No we go to Shoreham (Brighton) airfield. The tiny airport itself is an old Art Deco building, curved stone walls and all, and there is always a good selection of small planes and helicopters on view. WWII Spitfires last week.

The Spitfires that few to celebrate its anniversary.

Did you see a house in Shoreham that has a Blue Plaque for Max Miller on it?

I think they had a flyover from Portsmouth last week but we missed it.

Not seen the Blue Plaque, wonder where the house is??

Picked up girl scout cookies.  Tonight I need to separate them out so they can be delivered and removed from my kitchen.

Oh...that's right! It's that time of the year again...

Haven't found any yet.

The plaque, paid for by the Max Miller Appreciation Society was unveiled at Ashcroft, in Kingston Lane, Shoreham, where the comic lived for five years until 1950.

Found it, the JGP of Ken Dodd unveiling the Blue Plaque for Max Miller. The gentleman with KD (I think) is Bill Pertwee of Dad's Army fame.

My sister and I are going to a Hawks/Bulls game tonight.  We won free tickets at Trivia Night last night.

You really are the charmer Mr La Roche  ;D or it is Ms. I dunno?

I just picked up a ton of some good chinese food, but I think I'll earn dinner by working out/exercise first, then I'll reward myself with some food. So it's off to the weight room for me. I'll be back later.

I am charming, it's the only way a psycho fascist with poor hearing and b.o issues can survive in these times.

Anywho, she get's on at people for baby talk, thus it would just be wrong for me not to comment on her usage of it.

thanks, It was good. I had offered to cook dinner, then as it got closer to dinner time I changed my mind about cooking and got some take out. I'm not familiar with the Downs but it sounds like a good place where one can get their head together. I would deduce it's a scenic place. Enjoy the tea, the offcial drink of inthe00s. I'm just about ready to turn out the lights on another late night.

^ Chinese food is starting to sound yummy now. I gotta go to some homework and may return online to do some work modules for my terminology course. Have a fantastic day everybody! It's fairly nice out, but mighty cold again!

Oh Ok

To carry on the Surrealism 'Did you ever see a woman comin' outa' New York City with a frog in her hand?'

Just got home from church, and am home alone. Wife and daughter slept in and went to a later church service.  I'm enjoying some quiet time at home, with a plate of leftover chinese food & coffee as I explore inthe00s this morning.

Last night I went to my monthly diners' club dinner. I got home late so I didn't have time to turn on the 'puter and talk about it. I enjoyed it; there were 13 of us there. Sometimes we can have anywhere from really small crowds (no more than 6 people) big crowds (close to 20 people). Was a good turnout.

Today I'm staying home to do some house cleaning. Gotta do it at least once a week!

Today we had a parents against the kids basketball game as a way of ending the season.  There was a big surprise on the parents team when a player came out and did an outstanding job making baskets, no one expected that to happen, least of all me, who was that very player.  I sometimes shoot a few with Jake, but haven't played a game since high school.  It was a lot of fun then they had pizza, chinese food, and lots fo deserts, and gave out the trophies.  A good time was had by all.  :)

So, you are now ready for the WNBA?  ;) Glad you had a great time.

for.. the weekend?



well, most of it. We left Saturday morning and we returned later this afternoon. We had a really good time. Justin's play was great! :)

The guy can dance.

Visited my grandma... spend more time asleep or in the car then actually with her, though.  ;D

We had a good breakfast on the way, and an excellent breakfast.

In case my partner didn't get it done, I'm doing a "back-up" project.

just logged on, I hear the doorbell, gotta go

Cleaned the house this morning so I could host a meeting this afternoon (which I discussed in the "Feel Any Way, News Of Any Form" thread). It was the first time that any of my guests came to my house, which I gave good directions to.

Usual sort of Saturday morning and afternoon with mum's taxi taking the children to swimming and then dancing lessons.  Late afternoon I decided I needed a new coat so we went shopping.  I bought a coat, a pair of trousers and a pair of boots!  Then we went to a restaurant called Frankie and Benny's for a meal.  We really enjoyed it though the kids were a bit too tired.

Sunday we went orienteering in Cannock Chase.  It was bitterly cold and kept snowing, though it didn't really settle.

Monday adn I'm back in work

Don't like the sound of tha tcold.

My daughter doesn't have school today...so provided the kids behave, I might take them to a matinee later on... :)

Went to the New England Flower show.  Walk around, pretend that you will go outside and it will be sunny and warm.  It wasn't
but it was nice walking around looking at the mini landscapes anyway  :)

Lay around and complain about not feeling well.

I went to my program and bought a new pair of dress shoes.

Work today, school tonight.

Looks beautiful :)  Today, I get to go buy PVC pipe, then go to the woman's "favorite" doctor ::)



:)  I would''ve posted them on Sunday but I was dog-eyed.  Me, I'm just hanging around the boarding house today and go to a maths class tonight...::)    something I look sooo forward to, almost as much as seeing a womans fave doc!! 

Today is kind of a "bumming around" day.  I did a few things around the house, went to the store for a few items, put together a meal in the slowcooker, for dinner tonight....other than that, probably won't be doing a whole lot else.

tell you what.....I'll go to maths for you, you go to the doc for me ;)


Er NO  ;D

It was a Staff Development day...so only her school was out.  :)

Staff Development days... makes sense. I remember having those when I was in middle school and high school. :)

Today I got the results of my midterm exams. I did very well on both! :)

I always do well when I know the subject matter well and when I've studied adequately.

I went to my group therapy and went to the dentist.I have to come back on the 28th of this month for a filling.

I'm gonna stop at Party City and pick up some invitations to send out for my party I'm having in a couple of weeks for my birthday which was last month.

Babooshka, this is so weird.  The other day you were talking about the visiting the Quincy Market and Boston Common and today you have a picture of Beachy Head.  I went there when I was in England, it was one of my favorites, and I have a picture of that lighthouse!

Heyy isn't that an amazing coincidence  :) :)    It's a good feeling that despite the vastness of the world somehow it seems smaller and friendlier when stuff like that happens.
(Do you see the very hilly areas of the cliffs, they are known as The Seven Sisters and form part of the Beachy Head marathon route)

Today I must do some study and my homework for tonight, I hung around in cyberspace most of yesterday and wasn't productive at all - reflecting on earlier events. Back to the grind.

Yes, spent a couple of hours.  I found it absolutely breathtaking.  I was taken there by a local who said that the tourists go to Dover, the locals go to Beachy Head.

Today Jake has off from school.  Probably take him to a museum or something.  Maybe a movie.  We are footloose and fancy free    :)

Well I have been cleaning really good today (scrubbing floors, running the sweeper, dusting, cleaning the bathroom, etc...). Later, Chris and I have a class to go to.

Gonna have some tests in my computer courses today.

i'm going to work, and then in the evening i'm going to work on some songs for my band (we're rehearsing tomorrow) and maybe start on my review of the shaggy dog (1959) and the shaggy d.a. (1976).

Worry about work, day dream, go home, work on songs too^, watch movies with the dog.
maybe go out for a beer.
Contemplate driving to visit my mom over the weekend.

Gonna have some tests in my computer courses today.

Update: I had them both, and I think I did well on 'em. 8)

I went to my program and saw my job coach today.

Went to the Museum of Science, then to Pizza Hut.  Made it home before the snow squalls. 

Today I hope to start work on a short paper that I have to write for my geography class. It's due in a couple weeks, and I think I have some idea of what I might wanna write.

Took a walk in the woods, will finish the book I'm reading(Knots and Crosses-Ian Rankin), pick up Jake and take him for a donut.

Well...today I am meeting up with some friends for dinner, then Chris and I have a meeting to go to tonight.

I volunteered today.

I've been cleaning and doing laundry and telling people off ;D  Scouts tonight so hopefully, I'll be in a better mood by then :-\\


Listen to some good tunes, that always helps me.

Going out to eat soon. Then drama practice at 7:00.

Where ya going to eat?  And have you enrolled in a drama class? That's awesome.

Unfortunately, this is a bigger "bad mood" than music can help :-\\  It's getting better though....


Good luck.

Went to work, and had more time than work today. I hate when I run out of things to do, and still have hours left, it gets so boring  :P

I'm firing my kiln again today... :D

I'm firing my kiln again today... :D


Steady, madam...steady!

That's two firings in a week, dammit!

Thanks.  I've been venting so it's starting to get better ;)

Ohhh, I like venting! Venting is gooood!  ;D

Hee hee!  :D

This one is a 'glaze firing'...the pieces will be finished after it's done!

School and work, the norm i'm afraid. It's been a rather uneventful few days, actually...

I'm gonna go home and get a corned beef brisket and cabbage ready for the crock pot so can have some for lunch tomorrow on St. Patricks day

Relax. Tomorrow is my day off from work (and will continue to have ever other Friday) due to my work schedule where I work 9 hours 8 days, and 8 hours on a working friday.

Poor guy. Do you ever get to sleep? I work about 8 hour days 5 days a week, but then I have homework to do over the weekend.. but my schedule sounds like a walk in the park next to yours.

I just threw 2 corned beef briskets into a pot on the stove. I was gonna crockpot those bad boys, but they were too big, so I had to stuff em in a stock pot. we'll be feasting tomorrow  :)

Is corned beef gassy?  :o  I don't know, I've never cooked it before, but I got the urge and then my pals at work were thrilled that I may bring them some to sample, so I hope it is tasty. We shall see.

Ohh, the cabbage is.. if that's accompanying it. I'm having the works tomorrow night with my Dad in Martinez. So, I'll warn ya... lol  :\'(  ;D

and there will be cabbage once it's almost cooked. yeehaw!!!! 

Work this morning and then there is the funeral of a work colleague this afternoon.  The whole department is shutting for the afternoon.

Today I won't go to the Union Hall.  It is in South Boston and Southie is not the place to be on St Patricks Day unless you are
from Southie.  Think I'll take a ride over the state line and buy myself a Powerball ticket, it seems I have a better chance of hitting
that than finding work.

I got my son enrolled in school today...he'll start in the Fall!  :)

I volunteered today.

Went looking for a pair of plastic pink flamingos for Sigs lawn.  There aren't any anywhere  :(

I have only 40 minutes left for today, what else can I do?

I had a nice jaunt with one of my best friends this morning and had an Irish toast for luck with some wine and pancakes. Now I'm at work and getting off later to meet my Dad in Martinez for some cornbeef and cabbage. After that I'm going to meet with my mate for the rest of the night.

School, then went shopping with my mam and bought Snow Patrol's album (Less than a fiver!  :D ), then work. Some sad news though, one of my favourite colleagues is seriously considering leaving and may be handing her notice in as early as tomorrow... i'm absolutely gutted  :\'(

Well....Vaughn was driving me crazy today...so after Chris came home from work...he watched Vaughn while I headed out to do some thrift shopping. Then...I picked up dinner (fish) at a fish fry at a local fire dept. and came home to relax.

good dinner idea Erin, crispy fried fish sounds good and ya needed a little bit of a break from the little rascal.
I got home from work about an hour ago, nobody home but me so I logged in and then had to do some chores:take out the trash, the recycle, I have a softball tournament tomorrow so I had to get my equipment bag, bats, glove etc... ready and wash some laundry, then got a quick bite of leftover chinese food. My corned beef and cabbage sandwiches absolutely rocked today at work for lunch and made my 3 friends very happy and me too because they liked it so much. Now for some DownTime.  whew, I need to take a breath after all that.

I had my first day of lifeguard testing this morning. Then this evening was the banquet for our swim team. It was an enjoyable time, though I did make myself a bit sick from all the food.

Relaxing by watching cricket on tv.

Stock up on provisions, take Jake to swim class, maybe a walk in the woods.

Was planning on spending the day chilling until 5, but by the sounds of it i'm going to have to go into work early as one of the girls who's working today isn't very well

Since we're down to 1 car now, had to take my daughter to work, then pick her up later. I think we'll go to the mall and browse, maybe buy, and have some lunch.

Going to an auction. (That is a live one-not on e-bay.  ;D ;D ;D)

Went to my daughters performance last night at her school. The group is called Story and Song, The cast is 35 students seniors, juniors, sophomores, and freshman. The show was called "An Itimate evening of Cabaret by Candelight". The cast served strawberry cheesecake and coffee,& tea and then they sang 3 songs. Then they served the second dessert vanilla ice cream with chocolate and caramel sauce, sang 3 more songs. Then they had a special guest performer from the San Francisco cast of Beach Blanket Babylon Jessica Fisher sing Taylor the Latte Boy, then 3rd dessert and the last 3 songs. What I loved most was the selection of Pop Culture songs they performed which included
I Wanna Hold You Hand - The Beatles
Killing Me Softly - Roberta Flack
Pretty Woman - Roy Orbison
Theme from The Brady Bunch (very funny)
Peace Train - Cat Stevens
Taylor The Latte Boy  (guest performer Jessica Fisher was incredible, she was so good)
Movin On Up (theme from The Jeffersons)
Imagine - John Lennon  with his voice dubbed in.
The show was very cool and quite entertaining.

Food AND! Singing, dude, why wasn't I invited?


Anyway, today isn't going well.

1) I have a nasty rash on my forehead which is burning like crazy, i'm gonna see the Doc and find out if it's contagious or not.
2) We have an enormous storm coming in so I'm gonna have to go and sort out the basement windows.
3) I got nearly no sleep last night due to (1) so I'm probably gonna try and take a nap at some point.

Went to the union hall, no work.  Every monday is early release so I will pick up Jake and we will come straight home since it is
only about 25 degrees out side.  :(

I rested a lot today. Think I'm going to go see "The Shaggy Dog" today. Looks fascinating!

i hear you're better off seeing the tommy kirk original.

i just watched the original shaggy dog and the shaggy d.a. like 3000 times apiece for a writing assignment.

That sounds like fun!

Well, not really.
