I'm How Old?

Got to have coffee at the book store with Ellani this morning...You'll never believe what a complete idiot I've been...For the last 6 or 7 months, for some asinine reason, I have KNOWN I was about to have my 57th birthday on Aug 9th right? .....Ellani and I were discussing how long we've known each other (about 45yrs) and the question of birthdays came up. Her birthday is November 29th, 1950 and mine is in 1951...She says, "I'll be 57 in November",.......I looked at her like she'd sprouted wings or something and politely said she was wrong with all the authority of an idiot. After stopping and analysing the information I suddenly realised what a gift I'd been given...another year. Boy, talk about a good laugh!! She said she'd done that several years back as well. Don't know if there is something Freudian about this experience or not but I'll take that extra year, thank you very much! So, hope your day is or has been filled with a special gift and tomorrow brings a special touch of promise.

Friday Again

It's time for relaxing again! Hope you all get to find time in your weekend for a little fun. Love the picture! But how on earth do you manage to drive the thing? Probably runs better than a truck...although I don't think I'll be trying it out!

Daughter and kiddos are going to spend the night at a girlfriend's house. Just Hubby and I will be wandering around the old place tonight, and oh yes, Corky, our 15yr old terrier. The kids have really spoilt him since they moved in last year. He's partially blind and stone deaf. Follows the kids everywhere and if he can't find anyone, he'll stand in the hallway and snort, or bark...That's his que for being picked up and deposited on a bed where the action is. Kids that is...

Well, guess I'll get back to work. It's the end of the month closing and year end for us so there's a bit of work to do. Y'all have a great day and a better tomorrow.

How to get a Man to do What?

Just had to let y'all see the kind of stuff we get here in the office! Seems like it would a bit uncomfortable to lean up to the sink to wash your hands...or do I miss the point? Y'all have a great day!

A Little Magic

Ever find yourself wishing you had a fairy godmother to "poof" up your every wish? I can think of lots of things to wish for...more time off...people smiling more...happiness for all of us here on earth. My daughter to find true love and my son to wake up to life. Oh well, they say "if wishes were horses, all beggers would ride." It'll all come in time because, I believe...

I've been noticing the weather up north lately. Seems y'all are getting rain and colder temps! It's still in the lower 90's here in Texas. The sporadic showers we've been getting lately though have helped cool it off a bit.

Hubby got to work yesterday morning and had a run-in with some guy supposedly walking his wife to work. Seemed to be on "dope" of some kind. Hubby said he stuck his head in the truck's window, so Hubby whipped out his trusty...camera and shot his picture. Said the guy was screaming at him and carrying on something awful. He eventually wandered off behind some buildings and was gone. I really worry about Hubby getting here so early in the mornings. You never know what could happen. And he'd be alone. Hate it. Oh well, never ending battle.

Well, to everyone out there who has a wish, may it come true for you today. Have a great day and a better tomorrow.
