what a nice welcome home

I am reading a mystery by Katia Lief and a HILARIOUS book called Let's Pretend It Never Happened. The author uses the f-word a lot, but the rest is SO FUNNY! I have been laughing out loud as I read.

{{{Seawaters}}}, I hope you are better today! Have you read any interesting books lately?

Shellie, I hope things slow up enough for you that you can get some rest and some time just for yourself. How are Sasha, Scooby and your birds doing? Well, I hope! Have a great day!

Good afternoon, MMC!

My house cleaning is going well today. I have just a bit more to do before I start work.

Have a MERRY day!!!

:merry:

Well I'm going to sign off so I can get ready to watch the finale of HOUSE. I don't know if I've been this depressed about a show ending since West Wing. Then I will switch over and watch the season finale of American Chopper. This is going to be Mikey's final episode so that is even more depressing. Then hopefully I can catch a quick nap before I have to get at 3am to watch Spacex try to launch the Falcon 9 rocket and Dragon capsule again. Hopefully everything goes smoothly for them unlike saturday morning.

Goodnight all :hi:

Tomorrow morning I leave beautiful Germany and head back to Ireland.

I've had a wonderful week here and cant wait to come back at Christmas for the markets :yahoo:

I am sad about it ending, too! That's always been a show the hubby and I have watched together... I just hope it's a happy ending.

We got as far as getting the ac to the living room. Then I remembered that I need to get a new piece of plexiglass. Everything is closed tomorrow since it is Victoria day, so it will have to wait until Tuesday.

At the risk of sounding ignorant, what is Victoria Day for?

Re Hobby Lobby---I've never been to one of those. I don't know if there's one in our area, but we have A.C. Moore, Michaels, AND Jo Ann Fabrics close to us. (That's where I get the yarn I crochet with.)

That CAN'T be the Camp David in Maryland! cheesy I lived a few miles away from there when I was little, and when we saw a flock of helicopters flying over, we knew the President was going to Camp David. There was a big international meeting there this weekend.

Looks like the closest one to both of us is in Warwick, Rhode Island :-?

I'm already looking forward to the three-day weekend (we have tickets for a game at Fenway on Monday---cross your fingers for good weather!)

Lucky, the Sox are finally turning it around, I haven't been to Fenway Park since 2005. Hope you see a good game.

Good evening,

I am exhausted tonight, I had to help unload the truck today, then when I got home I mowed the lawn when I got home, my foot is really swollen tonight. My wife is watching her DWTS finale, I am on the computer listening to my favorite group The Move with my headphones and visiting MMC. I think I will have a bowl of coffee ice cream and then head to bed.

Have a good night!

Don't start the campfire without me!!!!! What's the weather going to be like there? I guess it doesn't really matter. I'll just plan on sleeping under the stars and throw a tarp into my pack in case it rains.

We had about 2 hours straight of rain, but it's beautiful now. We just started the campfire.

I am saying a quick goodnight, too. Xmas, coffee ice cream sounds so delish! Irishsnow, glad you had a good trip. Good luck with the campfire, Sugar!

I notice that sometimes, too, whitney. Let me know what you find out!

Give a shout if that happens again. I can direct your problem to someone who can help. Or send a PM to Jeff. He's looking into whitney's technical difficulty.

I think it's Queen Victoria's birthday. ('Course, I'm only an ignorant Yankee!)

That's okay ... I do pretty well with Michaels, A.C. Moore, and Jo Ann. And, for decorations, the Christmas Tree Shop. Oh, I should head over there to see their patriotic stuff!

We always say that even if the Sox have a bad day, spending an afternoon at Fenway is worthwhile. I'm glad we're going this season, when it's Fenway's 100th birthday. Mr.'s brother shares season tickets with some other guys, and if there are games that nobody is using, he'll sell us a pair of tickets. Grandstand seats above the home dugout---not bad! (depending on who's sitting around you). We take the commuter rail out there, so we don't pay for parking, but you can go broke getting something to eat, if you have anything left after paying for the ticket!
