Wack-y

have a safe weekend
mama hits the road today
and not in this truck

This-n-That Thursday

So random even I cannot follow it....
  • I always go into the same stall in the bathroom at work.
  • I could eat turkey and avocado every single day.
  • Hummingbirds are vicious with one another at my feeder.
  • My dermatologist is quite the comedian.
  • That Moroccan Oil hair stuff is The Best.
  • I think I've finally reached the weight I want for my 'before' picture.
  • Gah.
  • I have become OCD about ticks.
  • Do you ever have a day where you feel like you are under water?
  • A summer fever is the worst.
  • I am looking forward to tomorrow...and my Mini-Blister-Bash!
You?

Tuesday Text: Parentexting™

Such a talkative young man:

Sigh. And, yes, he got his meat snacks....

And this one? I think we all wish we were on this adventure...
Me? I just sit here at the ready. Waiting for a possible food order, or a travelogue. This emptying nest is a fascinating place to be...if not a wee bit lonely.

Monday Motivation?

Aquarius Horoscope
For The Week Starting June 27, 2011
Money is a bit tight for you right now as unexpected bills need to be paid. In two weeks it ease off and get better. You need to work harder on your dream now because it could become a reality within the next two weeks. Set your goals high and go after them one at a time over the next two years because you are on a roll now. You want to do the best you can within that predicted time frame.

This seems like an awful lot of work for an Aquarian. All this goal setting, working harder and going after... I like it better when it says it's just going to fall on me. Guess I'd better go get in the shower.

This-n-That Thursday

Even when they're home, you're still in an empty nest:
  • Since The Bird is at sea, Augie is doing his best to entertain me.
  • His strong work ethic is getting in my way.
  • Plus, he won't go shopping.
  • But, he does like to eat.
  • Too bad I don't cook any more.
  • Or go to the grocery store.
  • Meanwhile, The Bird can email me from her ship.
  • She loves it, and will be in Barcelona next week.
  • I feel more lonely than I did when I dropped them off for their first year.
  • But, I will be having a vicarious trip to Barcelona....
  • Thank Goddess for my friends, my friends, and my friends.
  • Speaking of friends, I'm hatching a plan.....
  • And in other news, I think I have diagnosed myself with every disorder you can possibly have.
  • And I'm serious.
How are you today? Got anything for me to do?

Hmmmmm

You?



You Are Analytical



You are both clever and practical. You strike the perfect balance between two extremes.

You spend time with your head in the clouds, but your feet are still firmly planted on the ground.



You tend to be a bit reserved, but those who know you know how much you care.

You prefer your own company, but you're always willing to make room in your life for a kindred spirit.
