Misslilo, glad you got the sleep you obviously needed. Will you be retiring in 5 years?

Hopefully not!! lol We can't get the retirement benefit until the age of 65 - so I still have a looong time to go. Although government are now talking about extending it to 67 and with my luck, I bet it'll be 75 before I can retire

Groceries complete yesterday and today the laundry is laundried -yipyip hoorey. And another thing. In the mailbox this AM was devil may cry PS3 game -oh more happiness!!! and here's what it says on the front. Classic HD Devil May Cry HD Collection Remastered in HD with exclusive BONUS content. and all for 26$. What more would a gamer want. I've played DMC 4 several times but now with this DMC 1,2,and 3 I'll know the whole legacy. Now I'm waiting for Black Ops 2, the zombie one, and DMC 5. And with Doom and Killzone 2 and Resistance series andandand this here yankee's in gamer's heaven. Well, no home repairs done this winter.
My cousin Laura who lives near Niagara Falls, NY vacuums her apartment like this: She makes a loud buzzzzzing sound and pushes back and forth an invisible vacuum cleaner and picks up stuff that's on the carpet by hand. Pretty neat.
Yesterday shopping I got my doggy some dog biscuit treats by Blue Dog Bakery, peanut butter and molasses flavor and they are made in the USA and they proudly support hundreds of animal rescue and shelter orgs. All natural ingredients and no animal by-products. bluedogbakery.com I know the brand I'll by buying from now on. If only they had cat something or other.
Nuttun' much going on now -bye for now

I was here this morning but apparently forgot to post. I should know better than to go to Petsmart on a Saturday afternoon when the rescue dogs are there for adoption. They had a litter of ten that were 9 weeks old and one looked just like Merlin. I was very tempted to put him in my pocket and go home. It was supposed to be near 70 and sunny today and instead we had severe thunderstorms.  My backyard looked like a lake for awhile. Poor hubby and my future SIL were golfing through it. be back...

Hello everybody.  I hope you're all having a great "end" of the week.  I've been enjoying a nice end of my work day, but son Josh called me to let me know that my ex-sister in law passed today after a long illness. Her sister, daughter, and husband all died in this past year, and she has two surviving daughters, so I ask that you send prayers and thoughts up for them. I have to work tomorrow at 7:00. I hope you have a nice evening everybody.  joe

Hi Yankee, did you mean Blue Buffalo Dog food? If so they have a website bluebuffalo.com and they do have cat food too! I saw an ad on TV today for it and then looked it up. Sounds very tasty (if you are a cat or dog).
Fed outdoorsies early. They had all congregated and can't get used to the new time change. So I relented and they will now go to wherever they go at night and sleep with full tummies.
Also spent a few minutes making pork spaghetti sauce and am boiling some pasta now. Can hardly wait.
Then I stuffed the open windows (I have them screwed in position all year round) with foam 'rods'. That way, it blocks the cold wind and if I want more ventilation, I just pull out the foam and all is good. Bought the foam at the thrift store last year for cheap. I think it was for making some complicated valances, but I just sliced the rolls apart (grouped in 3 long rods) and cut them to the window width. Only had to stuff 3 windows so it was easy. Works well.
Off to eat Spaghetti with homemade Pork marinara sauce. Ohhhhh!

So sad Joe, I will certainly send prayers to lift them up. I decided to take the dogs to the forest preserve at dusk because it finally stopped raining. The parking lot was full of dog runners when I got there, but they quickly left and I found myself in the dark, alone about 3/4 of a mile away from the parking lot. All of sudden the coyotes started howling and a couple minutes later we had three deer running straight for us. Merlin took off to run into them head on and I yelled loudly to deter the coyotes and the deer from coming closer. Let me just say, it was a not a very relaxing outing. Ana

hmmm , thought i posted this morning...
joe , that's so sad for them. i'll be sure to send a prayer to them.
ana , i agree- that doesn't sound relaxing to me either.
course , my last couple of days weren't too relaxing either - bathroom's underground plumbing has been clogged and needed to be dug up ,so every 10 minutes , someone was screaming for something or coming in ,or...you get the picture.
meanwhile ,i loaded WoW and murder in the abbey on the old /new computer , and was trying to update my rogue.
the cat has been beside herself trying to figure a way into the bathroom today - too funny !
nan , what were you painting? wish i coulda went went in the taxi last night - fish fry sounds good....
back later - you all try and stay out of trouble , ok?

Well I think I ache all over after the day I've had. Not complaining though. It's getting closer to the day I'll be in my new apartment for good. Rob and one of his sons(Connor) came and went through my apartment like a hurricane and packed up his truck and made a run to my new place. Things are happening fast. I wouldn't want company now though. Eck, my place is so messy, boxes everywhere. Darlene give your daughter a hug from me please. She sounds so delightful. L4L I hope you get your voice back quickly. Gail I'm getting closer to my move date. Can't wait to get from under my landlady's thumb. She's so picky about everything. Oh well, I don't have to worry about her much longer. Saying good night now. I'm out of energy. See you in the morning. Midgie
