Still here

Dh is doing his checkbook. Heaven only knows when we'll leave for Virginia.! Sometime before mid-afternoon,I hope. Been there. Done that, truly.  Let me get back to you on it!

more trouble

Air conditioner quit on the van. Must take PT Cruiser to Virginia tomorrow. See I told you there was  a reason for having all those kids. It was so we can play "musical cars". Are we having fun yet?

BEtwEen CRasHes

Miss me? Computer crash again! That's the third time this month. Everything went begging. Sorry! I think he's buying a MAC. Not a quarter pounder. An APPLE! Got it? I hope so. No ergo keyboard though, I hope. I really will have to wear glasses then.

Yesterday when I was

The next word is YOUNG. Right now I feel that it has been longer since yesterday for me. Trying to get everything caught up on SWAPBOT before we head out again. Working out pretty well, too. Except that I can't remember what size needle I used for the band on that market bag. Think I'll assume that I used what the pattern called for. I shall never use that pattern again on anything less than a 40 inch circular.

You know accidents happen

On the way back we detoured from I-68 to I-70 to US30. Accidents! Took us 2 hours longer but hey we saw country that we will never get to see again, I hope. US30 is an old mountain highway, two lane. I remembered about an hour in to the mountains that that kind of driving and my mother don't mix. She threatened never to go to Virginia with me again because of that road, as if I planned it. She's sitting on the edge of her seat, reading all of the signs for trucks and wanting me to gear down, because 45 is too fast. For that matter, so was 30. Then she says that if the brakes burn up WE can call KENNY. Right?So instead of getting into Ohio at 9 as planned, it was closer to 11 and then the overhead lights wouldn't go off in the car and she's punching every button that the dash has to offer. We pulled into a Red Roof and they charged too much. The days of $18 a night are over. Right? Right! We stayed anyway. My treat! Check out is 12 noon. We left at 11:50 am.

Goodwill hunting!

My mom has withdrawal. True enough. She has not been to a GW or a thrift store in days, so I found one in Greenfield, In and in Indianapolis. She felt better. All right by me too.Did not find her any pants to go back to Virginia. As if they were sorely needed! She's just trying to get out of sewing. That's all right, too, I guess.

BEHIND on the year again

Ten posts behind for July and one someplace else. Poison ivy or whatever it was looks better. Nanny is having fun and Matt needs a change. All good!!
