This 'n That Thursday

Mindlessness:

  • I have a job interview later this morning.  Could be interesting.
  • I need to dash out and buy some stockings.
  • It's humid here today, and I am not looking forward to said stockings.  Or the suit jacket either.
  • Wish me luck.
  • I am down another 3 pounds.  Wheat free living is the life for me.
  • My nephew plays football for the school my brothers attended.  I hope to go to every game.  They need more cowbell, though.
  • I am the big sister to my brothers, but they are basically my mentors.  They are incredible men.
  • I cannot wait to change my car tags.  I can see all the Tennessee cops eyeing this old yankee gal with her Connecticut plates.  
  • FYI: I have taken the steps to re-register the car, it just takes time.
  • I am having dinner with a college suitemate, her parents and her daughter on Saturday night.  I am thrilled.
  • Oh yeah, this daughter is also my god daughter.  Thrilled.
  • Okay.  Gotta go get some stockings.  Go get my game face on, and get this day under way.
  • Have a great day, everyone.  Be safe.

Back-to-school shopping with The Baby Bird:
Only, The Baby Bird is already back to school.
And I have no business buying any new shoes for myself.
So I left those cute boots and shoes in the store.
Sigh.

Monday Morning Musings


  • I went to a new church yesterday that has a great vibe.
  • My babies are starting their senior year of college this week.  How did that happen?
  • I may be the only person on the planet who is not on Pinterest.
  • I am worried about New Orleans.  Any category storm is going to be bad.
  • That being said, I hope we get some of that rain here in Middle Tennessee.
  • Bacon may be the world's most perfect food.
  • I think Dora agrees with that assessment.
  • There are a lot of hot air balloons around here.
  • We have a vineyard nearby, and I have not even been there yet.
  • What does your week look like?

This 'n That Thursday

Meh
  • I am not a fan of paisley.
  • There is a farm down the road that grows the world's best cucumbers.  They are my new crack.
  • I had art class last night.  I am not an artist, but I am going back for another one soon.
  • I have never done crack.  Or smoked it.  However you "do" it, I haven't.
  • I am a big fan of plaid, however.
  • I feel sorry for Prince Harry, and I'm glad there were no cell phones when I was in my 20's.
  • I have finally started watching "Downton Abbey."  What took me so long?  And, when is season 2 going to be available on Netflix?
  • I think Robin Roberts on "Good Morning America" may be one of the most courageous and grace-filled woman there is.  She is gearing up for a bone marrow transplant next month, and she never skips a beat. 
  • I hate cancer.
  • In addition to cukes, radishes are also high on my list.
  • My email is having all kinds of issues.  And Mercury isn't even in retrograde.
You?
