Hello, everybody, looks like y'all have been busy while I've been here sulking. Went in to work this afternoon, and turned around and came home...I just plain feel crappy, period. I've had a nasty chest cough for about three weeks now, which wakes me up constantly at night, so I'm tired, my nose/sinuses are all runny/stuffy, but believe it or not, I'm not really sick...jsut plain miserable. Ok, this isn't enough to keep me home, but then this morning...and later on this afternoon after I got home...I had a bout with, well, it's just nasty, ok? I'm sure you get the idea. I took an immodium around one, but it just hit me again, so I guess this might be for real, eh? Anyway, I'm 90% sure it's no more than stress, anger, frustration, worry...all of which will take its toll eventually, as we all know. In other words, this, too, shall pass, I'm sure. I'm exhausted, also, just plain tired, tired, tired!
Kelly! Hello, nice to meet you. Had to chuckle at your remark about having to work before going to work, lol...know the feeling, in fact. Did you say where you work? If you did, would you mind saying it again? And if you didn't, would you mind telling? The Inquiring Mind wants to know.
Judy, we've had some pretty weather here, too. Today was kinda grey, tho, and we just a couple sprinkles of rain on the skylight. But it was still warm enough that I sat out on the carport for awhile when I got home this afternoon. I'd tried to take a nap, but couldn't sleep, so decided to go out there and just sit for awhile. It's very peaceful there, even with the traffic on the street in front of the house. Did you post where you work? I missed it if you did.......
Pag, how are you doing? You and your family have been in my thoughts lately, as well as in my prayers. That's a shame that you can't go to the performance with Navywife...hope y'all get to do lunch.
Kim, thanks for the link to that website. I've put it on my monitor and plan on browsing over there later on. It must be an offshoot of
www.organizedhome.com, right? How's the new house coming? Got pictures to post for us yet?
Sharon, decorating a cabin for Christmas makes me think of pine cones, lots of greenery, very natural stuff, in other words. See what you can come up with from the stuff growing around you, add a few bows and ribbons, maybe??? Does that help any? I haven't given a lot of thought to decoration yet...I do know that this year there's no room to put up the tree. The spot where we put it last year has Dearly's computer sitting there now. Not really a problem, as I can do Christmas quite nicely without the tree...we did it a couple years ago. It's amazing what you can do with houseplants, lol.
Hey, Mouse, what's going on up there on the mountain? Isn't it about time for you to make another trip to town?
Elizabeth must still be working on her new floors...sounds like hard, physical labor to me...not something I'd care to do, y'know. I wish her and the Ol' Curmudgeon a lot of luck!
Navy, that just doesn't seem right about the learner's permit, lol. I KNOW you're not old enough for a daughter that age, bless your heart. Oh, well, just wait until you realize that your oldest is 35, ok? Quite shocking if I let myself think about it, lol!!!
Linnea, oh, Linnea, wherefore art thou??? I haven't seen you around lately...ok, so I'm not the most dependable poster either, lol. You doing ok? How are the aches and pains these days?
Ameyezing, hello. I hope your week-end goes well. Is the weather still nice in Savannah?
Stacie, you sure are busy lately. I'd like to have the directions for the beadies...do you also have pictures of them? The cane has had a few things...not many...added to it. Another feather with an old trade bead on it, held on by rawhide, and a silver star(because I AM a shining star, lol) and a bolt of lightening made from copper that E. did for me. The lightening is the closest I can get to the "thunder" in my name...Singing Thunderheart. I'm going to eventually use the woodburning tool and engrave "courage" down the length of it, as I've decided that her name is Ms. Courage!!!!! The only other thing I've decorated so far is the plain white dish in the bathroom that I keep my makeup in...it's now pink and green and gold...very colorful. I've got a couple other things in mind, but don't know when I'll get the gumption to do them...we know how lazy I am, right?
Martie, I so enjoyed the pictures of your cruise. You took some beautiful shots, nice and clear. Those shots of the ocean are amazing, I love the colors in them just like you do. I've got a few questions for ya. About the pirate ship: do they really still *pirate,* or is it just for show? About the food displays...that are gorgous, btw...incredible works of art! The ice sculptures...how long do they hold up? The cheese sculptures...do they actually get eaten or are they just for pretty? Same question about the flowers made from vegetables, and those birds made from squashes.
Well, I guess I'm thru for this time. Y'all just try to have a good week-end, hear? Anybody heard from Shanti or Jiggly? God bless.
