L4l! What a day and it's just starting. Wow. Better drink more than just one cup of coffee.

I have to go scout the yard for empty brandy bottles. Was a lot of 'activity' last night with guys from the apartments walking up and down out front and laughing and running and just acting plain stupid. Not sure what they were up to but it's time to go see if anything is amiss out in front of my house or in the yard. Always a treat.

I think someone new moved into the apartments yesterday or is moving out. A new truck appeared, backed in and for 3 days, the 'manager' has been putting 'stuff' on the curb for free taking. That usually signals someone moved out. Can hardly wait to see the 'new' guy or guys. I'm thinking it's more of the friends of the drug sellers. Scary bunch. Seem friendly but oh the worry about bad deals and guns and all that goes along with selling drugs. Sigh.

L4L, special coffee and cookies in the corner for you.
What a week. All problems & no fun. SO glad I'm home at last

L4L, I also just finished 11-22-63 and really enjoyed it. After a drought of good books I think this is more typical of King. Actually couldn't put the book down (read it in 2 days)

Wow L4l you did good for not having any coffee. I think you need the coffee IV setup now.

Sorta hope they were kind to your yard.

Aw Jenny HUGS!!! glad that rotten week is over and the weekend is beginning for you. Reeses and grape juice in the corner!!!

Well time to think about getting ready so I can fireup the taxi!! Have a wonderful afternoon and evening all.

Ana hope you are fastly moving right along!!! HUGS!

cooold this morning; down in the low 30's, wind is blowing but sun is shining.

Karen, hugs to you and hope all will be well.

L4L, sounds like you just haven't been busy enough, soooo, bringing 3 dogs for a visit....oh, I'll bring some decaf too...

Off to ponder the rest of the day; hope all have a great one.

Loved the jokes Joe.

Thanks Manx

I'm back from the park with the kiddies. Hubby picked up dinner on the way home. Daughter called and totally stressed me out, so I'm going to take my icee and go destress in my bedroom with a tv remote and a book. It's always something!

Back later

I have spent my entire day 'chaperoning' my yard kid. He arrived at 11:15 and I've been having him do mega weedwacking of all the edges of all the sidewalks and driveway and all the little weeds growing in between and along all fences. A BIG job. But he needs frequent supervision, hydration (he never brings anything) and I ended up finally after 4 hours giving him a chicken sandwich since he hadn't eaten anything today. Geee whiz. He needs a mom. But he works hard, does anything you ask, even if it's yukky and takes whatever you want to pay him. I'm fairly generous as are most of the others I referred him to. He needs the money. Turning 20 on Cinco de Mayo (he reminded all of us..ha) and has no prospects for any type of permanent job (quit high school in his senior year to support the relatives he lives with). Sad story, but he's a nice kid. He's STILL here and wants to work more tonight so he can buy groceries for the house. Sigh. I will have to go out soon and see what he's up to. Hopefully he hasn't torn out any valuable vegetation in my absence.

Had a most mahvelous day of retail therapy with daughter. She is such a joy to be with. Now we're getting ready to head out to grandson's birthday dinner. Then I'll be back home to share a glass of red with my 'Boomie buddies!

Alrighty, gotta skoosh! See you later!

Taxi home and parked for the night and we had a good time too, as usual.

Night Haroula sleep well.

Trippy it's been in the 20's here in the mornings. Hope it warms up soon!!

Sorta I know a few kids like that too. Very good workers but need somebody there all the time to tell them what to do next. He is lucky that he found you for work!

L4l glad you got some walking in with the kiddies. Enjoy the icee, the book and the TV!!

Darlene sounds like a good time shopping today. Have a lovely time at the party and to grandson!


Nan

Night all.
