Mindless chatter, Thursday

Humidity is back here, too.  My kid's phone broke - OMG you'd think I died not the stupid phone, the way she's acting LOL !!!  Imagine not texting someone for a whole 24 hours.    I thought I was going to have to Xanax her out last night, but decided I needed them more !

I did get an exceptional night's sleep though!!

Deb W.

Oddly, I didn't sleep well, and that's two nights in a row.  Not at all like me not to crash in the recliner and stay crashed for the rest of the night.

I did a bunch more collage frames yesterday.  All of my photos, and albums, were in the RV for the duration, so having a little time, I've been selecting favorites and putting them in the 7 or 8 photo frames.  Lots and lots of pics of my kids through the years and even some of DH as a child.  And, since I know where I'm putting the furniture when I get it here, I've been hanging like a mad woman.  Starting to run out of wall space tho......

Deb, wasn't it just a little while you were sooooo happy and excited to have your daughter home for the summer??!!!  LOL.  Yeah, keep the Xanax for yourself, you may need it again, she might have a tiff with her BFFor some other world shattering crisis.  BTW, I sent Dawn your rib recipe on request.  She was wanting it yesterday but I explained you were probably taking your nap.

Glenda, sounds like you found a good inside job, that's the only answer in the heat and humidity. 

Off to finish up some paperwork and then clean this filthy office.  Where's the maid?  Oh yeah, that would be me.

She was wanting it yesterday but I explained you were probably taking your nap.

Thank you Jackie.  You know how I cherish my nap time!!

I didn't sleep well last night.  I fell asleep ok, but soon after I was ripped from my sleep by, what I believed at the time to be DH getting a little too grabby.  There were fingernails ripping down my back at the time, so I slapped him for being a jerk.  I didn't realize that DH was still sleeping soundly, & Bevo, who was sleeping behind me, was having a rabbit hunting dream.  Darn dog, I have scratches down my back, & DH was not impressed by being smacked.

It's humid here, too.  I should have worn my poodle skirt to go with my poodle hair...LOL.

Jackie, saw your post in yesterday's chat and haven't forgotten.  Maggie is so surprised at all the *aunts* she suddenly has - Aunt Deb, Aunt Jackie, Aunt Callie, Aunt Amanda, Aunt Courtney.  I guess that means she has lots of adopted doggie cousins, too!

I suppose I ought to enter some invoices.

BEVOLASVEGAS

so I slapped him for being a jerk

Probably needed it regardless !!

Deb W.

Yeah, agreed.  Men usually need a good slapping now and then.  Just to keep them in line.

I have one frame left to fill and hang, and then I'm out of frames until I can find more.....Wallyworld is not very consistent about having the frames I like in stock.  And this is a little town....not really anyplace else to look.

going to Lowe's today to pick out a paint color for my kitchen. FINALLY finished the cabinents beginning of this week and while there I will also get someone to come over and measure/get an estimate for our countertops. Going solid surface on those. I'll do a tile backsplash myself as I have the time. Glad things are finally coming together in the kitchen and my dh has loosened the purse strings to get that new counter...LOL.

 news on MIL is just awful.  the tumor is taking up 30% of the right side of her brain.  When swollen it is taking up 75%.  She has been given 3-6 months but only 4-6 weeks of being OK. After which she will need to be in hospice/hospital needing 24 hour care.  DH will head over (to the UK) in a bit and stay for a few weeks.  I am hoping to sort out things here so that I can go over for a few days before she is in terrible shape.  They believe that it only started growing 2-3 months ago.  Truly unbelievable.

I'm trying to keep DH rational as he and his whole family tend to just lose it.  Somebody needs to keep it together I'll be trying to help him be that person.

My stepdaughter was sent home yesterday and they are watching her to make sure the pre-eclampsia doesn't manifest itself or they will induce or C-section.  her due date is the 8th so I would think it will be fine if they have to do that.

thanks for listening

eesh...so very sorry Karen. Good luck to your stepdaughter and my best to your family.

Karen, I'm so sorry about your MIL.  I'll keep good thoughts for your and your family.  I had my house cleaned professionally yesterday for the first time for the real estate walk through. OMG, I can't believe it.  Every inch is spotless, event the window tracks.  I'm not much into cleaning window tracks. Now I'm getting paranoid about keeping it that way.  Do you suppose the guys would mind if I  told them they had to dash down to the end of the street and use the bathroom at the tennis court? And maybe do all their eating/drinking in the back yard? Shower with the hose?

yer movin? whereto? I missed it! I miss everything...wah!

Karen, I'm so sorry to hear the news isn't good for your MIL.  You guys are in my prayers.

Sure!!  Men are so messy, so that makes sense to me!  Besides, they might like the whole "getting back to nature" deal.
