Took the cat to the vet-AGAIN to get more fluids and more meds. Tonight we are going to an auction.




Cat

I did some things around the house today, got packages ready to mail out today....and I think after I pick up Chris..I am gonna come home and start my fall decorating outside.

Work, work, work, soccer, work, cook/eat/homework/cleanup, sleep.  :P

Work, work, work, soccer, work, cook/eat/homework/cleanup, sleep.  :P


same thing, but no soccer.

same thing, but no soccer.


Oh come on, I'll bring my ball and everything.

Sweatshirts for goal posts, young lads, in the park. Love it.

went to program

Watch the Yankees/Blue Jays game....hopefully they can clinch the Division tonight!

Working today - as usual. Dealing with more allergies. Can't wait to get home in about less than 2 hours so I can rest my achin' head.

Today i'm planning to finish off posting here, then text some friends and see if we can arrange to go out somewhere or do something. Although it is nice having the whole house to myself, i'm not prepared to spend all day inside

Gotta go to work.

Go to work, pay bills, come home and chill w/ the kiddoes.

it's pay day!
and doctor later...
maybe some easy housework.

Doing research on all the "stuff" we bought at the auction last night.

I volunteered then later in the Afternoon,they were having Employee Appreciation Luncheon Day.

Every year I take Jake to a Celtics game, he is a fan.  Ticket sales are computerized now so I sat here and went through all the rigamorole it takes to buy two.  We have Celtics/Nets in February.  Last time we went it was Celtics/Nets and both Paul Pierce and Jason Kidd were out of the game.  :(  Hopefully it will be better this time, considering what they charge.  >:(

8) Decorate my house..HMMM...apt..for when my son and his wife come to visit ...He is in the NAVY..stationed in New Haven Conn...just got a promotion..going to work on the Trident Sub in Washington St...I havent seen him in a year..... ;D

I'm going to shop for decor for the house... then hit Costco for a few necessities: bleu cheese, bleu cheese dressing, tomatoes, some other cheese, lunch meat, cheese.  :D

Prolly drive to the next county for some booze for the weekend.

Clean the house, change bed linens, and then pack a bag for a little weekend getaway with the husband to the drive-in theater that is about 100 miles from here.

having a little cheese, are we?  ;D    luv cheese! 

I have a softball game after work tomorrow at 630pm tomorrow and then probably have to come home and help clean house since we're hosting another family birthday on Sunday and I'll be gone all day on Saturday playing ball in a tournament somewhere.

It will be like any other Friday for me, work, etc!

What are your favorite cheese, Badfinger-fan?

I've got a romano, a sharp cheddar and a swiss at the moment... tomorrow I'll grab some bleu and perhaps something new. Suggestions?

oh yes, provisions, cheese for instance  ;D

I'm pretty simple when it comes to cheeses, nothing to strong. I love a good Brie with crackers or frenchbread.  I love sharp, medium & mild cheddar in that order. I have some swiss which I only care for on sandwiches. My wife & I will splurge on good Parmagiano Rigianno to shred on our ceasar salads. I like many, as it looks like you do. If I were gonna eat some right now, it'd be brie.

I have a hard time finding a good brie where we are.

I forgot to mention feta cheese. That goes over well, especially with olives and some nice tomatoes.

8) Dont forget the Muenster and Provalone!!

and that mozzarella thing with tomatoes, basil, and olive oil drizzled over it, a little pepper. magnifique! Yeah, don't get the brie if it's not good.  I'm a pepper jack fan too, but to me that is more of a novelty than a traditional cheese, but heck. it's cheese. a good M-Jack works fine too.

I had an RDO from work today ! Gee it was nice  :D

Well...there is yet another fall festival in the town over from us...it's actually a glass and ethnic festival. We are going to the parade tomorrow and the fair at night. Tonight, my brother-in-law is coming over to help us with some stuff around the house. We are getting ready to cut down our pear tree in the back yard...it's such a pain in the butt!!

Tomorrow at the fair we are going to go see the classic rock band, Foghat (ya'll remember them?), and on Sunday, probably going to see the local country band (for Chris' sake...he loves country), "The Poverty Neck Hillbillies".

Well, went into University and got my final timetable... s'okay, I suppose. I get Fridays off and I get to lie-in on Mondays, but then to compensate that I have 9 o clock starts on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. I also get to go home early on Thursdays, and I have 1-5pm free on Tuesdays.

The only problem with this timetable is that i'm scheduled for a practical from 4-6 on a Monday afternoon, and of course my work shift is supposed to start at 6pm. This gives me 3 choices:
1/ Lose an hour and start at 7 - of course, this wouldn't be my preferred choice as it means i'm losing money and it may be difficult finding someone who'll agree to work that extra hour EVERY week
2/ Switch Monday night shift to a Thursday - I hate Thursday nights, but i'll do this if it means i'm not losing out on any pay. Working Thursdays will also mean working 3 nights in a row. i'll also have to get another member of staff to agree to switch
3/ Drop Monday nights altogether - i'll only do this if there isn't ANYTHING ELSE at all that I can do... I need the money

The manager should be in when I get to work tonight, so i'll sort it all out with her then. I'm hoping I can catch her in a good mood and do a straightforward switch

My daughter is in a dance show so tonight I am in the dressing room and again tomorrow afternoon and evening.  that's after my meetings at work, cooking an evening meal and waving goodbye to my mother-in-law.  My husband is driving her back tonight.  He's taking James as well becuase it would be impossible to have him in the dressing room for 4 hours!

Work.  Take daughter to soccer practice.  Drive to son's soccer game.  After game, pick up daughter from practice.  Feed everybody.  Get the boys out to the movies w/ their friends.  Go to a rehearsal for the music for a friend's wedding (the bride, groom, and friends are all musicians so there's going to be great music at the ceremony itself and I'm playing keyboards).  THEN....have three extra kids sleeping over tonight.  AND....tomorrow I have to take my daughter to a 9 a.m. soccer game.  I have one wedding to attend at 11 and another at 1.  What a weekend!

Scream!

Tea?

Yes to the salad caprese or whatever it's called. I grow my own basil on my back porch so that salad may be in our very near future.

Tea?
I'm sure that's high on your provisions list  :)

I'm not sure of the name, but it is a wonderful appetizer, but the mozzarella has go to be fresh. You grow your own basil? I need to plant an herb garden myself. Basil smells so good.

...well, I've been at work 48 min and have done nothing but inthe00s. gotta go!  8)

I'm sure that's high on your provisions list  :)
Very high!

Watching what I can of the Ryder Cup.

Volunteered as usual and later tonight going to watch Deal Or No Deal

I got my hair cut today. :)

Well, I spoke to my boss about the Monday night situation, and for now she's got someone in to work until 7pm. It's unlikely at this stage that this will be permament, but it's better than nothing  :-\\

I got my hair cut today. :)
  8) Shaved or mohawk???

Jeff, will you be watching The Ryder Cup?

worked until 430pm, got off 2 hours early to go to my softball game at 630pm, we won, we're in sole possession of 1st place. Came home, had some dinner. I should probably shower, but feeling lazy, maybe later. and now I'm hanging out here for awhile.

8) I am waiting for my son and daughter in law...They left New Haven Conn...yesterday around 4....My son said they were going to drive right on throu..but I know girls..She is gonna want to have a bed and a shower.....It is at least a 19 hr drive...

Had a lie-in, having some breakfast. My mam's car's not in the drive, so i'm presuming she's gone out shopping or to see my nana and grandad. Nothing planned for today except work later

Had to clear up yet more cat sh*t from my garden *sigh* and am now having a cup of tea and a browse on these boards before going back outside and digging a new flower bed.

Sig was going to work on the roof(why do it in the dry summer months when you can wait until the rain in the fall), but it is raining so it will have to be postponed.  Probably do a bunch of errand, read some more of my book.(Team of Rivals, The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln)

You're right!!  silly me... :D

Went out with friends, worked, came home, logged on, checked e-mails etc, ate, drank, repeated until mind went numb, etc...

Today was a pleasant day. We went to a fall parade and then to an ethnic festival. Then we came home and Vaughn and I decorated the porch with our fall/Halloween decorations....and now I am relaxing! :)

I slept in until 10:16am, and then I woke up, made coffee, watered my lawns, did a sh*tload of dishes, vacuumed, cleaned up the kitchen, because we're having a birthday party tomorrow and I had to do most of the work today since LadyDi had to take kids to an art museum in San Francisco, so I was on my own. Then for dinner I Q'd up some ribs, and now I'm chillin with you fine people.

yeah, I heat up a big heavy duty, thick bottomed stainless steel stock pot and pour in some oil, and a few big handfulls of JollyTime popcorn kernels, get my oven nitts on and once it starts poppin' I shake it up real good until it's done, then I add the salt and butter right in the pot, then pour it all into a gigantic bowl.

Stomach ache from too much popcorn?

Another nice, refreshing lie-in today. My only plans for today, however, are to have Sunday lunch soon.

Take Jake to the Y for "family swim", maybe go for a drive.  Had a layoff on Firday and there hasn't been a call for tomorrow so I have to plan all the things that have to get done in and around the house tomorrow in case I get called back during the week.  Like get in the car and drive up the coast neglecting all of those things  ::)

Going to see the play The Crucible at the local college.

Aboout to settle down and watch a movie.

Today was a momentous day.

As some of you may or may not be aware, about 3 years ago I destroyed my left knee in a horrible football (soccer) accident.
Well, It's been about 3 years, but today I played in my first proper competitive game.
I was substituted in the 50th minute, but that was fine with me, by that time I was starting to feel a lot of pain.
I'll probably never be fully comfortable on it, but the fact that I put in a good performance and am back on the books with my old team suggests that I can still play to a decent standard.

We won 7-1 and I managed to score once and get a yellow card (caution).  ;D

Congrats on the Victory & nice going on the yellow card  I hope you deserved it by knocking an opponent on his ass Davey!  ;D  and I'm glad to hear your knee has healed enough for you to get back into the game. Just don't blow it out again.

Today was a nice day. We had to teach our 2 year old sunday school class then we came home and Chris watched the Steeler game, and Vaughn and I both took a nap. We then got up and picked up Chris' nephew Cody...and we all went to the playground and then out for ice cream afterwards. After that....we headed back to the ethnic festival and got us some hot dogs and watched the fireworks....it was very eventful...just how I like it...and the weather was gorgeous today! :) 8)

Well...this morning I spent a little time online, and then concentrated on getting a paper done for my English class. Later, in the afternoon, we went out dancing! I just finished a beginning class in swing, so today at the dance studio, there was a celebration for that. Dancing is always fun. :) Then we came home, I walked the dog, and I finished my English paper!

oh, a swing class...that sounds like lots of fun!

yes, it was! My parents began taking dance lessons at a place called "House Of Dance" in Ventura back in February; I came with them one time to observe and see what everyone was doing; it seemed like fun, so in May, I came with them to a dance party; the instructor gave us all free lessons in swing and cha cha. This instructor is a very nice lady; she explains the dance steps very well and tells us what to avoid doing so that we won't make certain mistakes. Anyway, during the summer I attended a few workshops, and in August I signed up for a six-week swing class!

one other thing: you don't need a partner in order to take the class. All the ladies rotate so that they dance with all the men. :)

I want to take some more dance classes, but right now I really need to concentrate on my studies. So after finals are over, I may consider dancing some more. So that would be sometime after Christmas.

Thanks Mike. I've attended a few cha cha workshops, so I have a background on that, too. Like I said above, I will be concentrating on my studies for the next three months...so maybe in January 2007 I can see about taking another dance class.
