If you have not joined it – do. 

It is a hoot and a half to re-engage with high school and college friends.  

The wounds of back stabbing snobs have surprisingly healed and at our age we learn that we were all in the same boat.  It would have been nice to have known it back then.  I am afraid that I missed out on some good friendships in my life. 

The really funny thing is that a lot of us live within 5 miles of each other now.  No joke…  And I have never run in to any of them. 

We are planning a get together the Friday after Thanksgiving.  Kind of an ollie ollie in come free type thing.  I hope a lot of people show up.

And most of all – I hope they all keep their mouths shut about how much weight I have gained.  That would make me very happy.  

Thankyouverymuch

Alive? Yeah – I’m here

I had a red letter day at the grocery yesterday.  That is just how exciting my life is lately.  

Publix – spent $20 and saved $22

Kroger – spent $99 and saved $78

Clip those coupons and spend the time with the the Sunday ads and save that kind of money!!  It takes about about one or two hours to do the research, but it is SO worth it.  Kind of like a scavenger hunt for food.  

Publix hot dogs were a penny with the weekly ad presented.  SWEET!

Isn’t that exciting?  My husband and I thought so, my son just thinks that I’m a geek.    :)

History

Making a thirteen year old understand why he can’t watch Pinks while there is history in the making is tough.  

I’m just sayin’.

DST

I really don’t mind this time change, but I wish they would do it on a Friday so we had two days to get settled in. 

I am sore today – practiced driving the motorcycle this weekend and dropped it once.  I can’t tell if I hurt from trying to get the @$#*(#@ off the ground (ended up needing hubby’s help) or from trying to keep something so heavy in an upright position.  

I will master this.  I will not need hubby to drive it somewhere for me to practice for much longer.  I will master this.  I hope. 

Note – hubby is very very very sexy in his motorcyle gear.   Ahem, I’m just sayin.

Halloween is OVER

My head hurts……  Bleh

Let Christmas begin!

Oh wait – there is a turkey day in there somewhere isn’t there?

Christma…..huh?

Saturday people – SATURDAY!!!   24×7 Christmas music on XM radio!!!  

I have 20 something days of Turkey decorations and then it will be TINSEL TINSEL EVERYWHERE!  

Thank you baby Jesus!!

Rockband

This awful game (if you call it that) has made it way in to my home.  

So as I sat upstairs last night after counting the cobwebs on my kitchen light cleaning up the house, I started to enjoy  my daily brain challenge called the LA Times Crossword.  I say challenge my brain because I make myself hold off from calling my mom for the answers until the very last minute.  

Anyhoo…..the clicking sounds from this game when you are a floor above the people playing will make you want to stick a pencil in your eye.  They turned down the volume so the music wouldn’t be too loud, but I am here to tell you that Kiss’ Lick it Up would have been more enjoyable to listen to than someone trying to use the Rockband guitar for the first time.  

Seriously – remember those HUGE pencils from elementary school.  I really did look for one.  Instead all I found was the cheap mechanical pencils that my 8th grader uses and after having written with them before knew the lead would break at the retina.  I doubted I would have any return on investment of my act after that. 

Srsly – Rockband = erratic clicking and drum beats.  There is a reason there isn’t a tour bus in my driveway.

It is getting cold here.  I thought I would post a picture that makes me feel warmer sitting here in my igloo office.
