Nan, have fun moving. And God Bless you for helping.

Darlene, enjoy your day!

Ana, I hope Merlin has fun.

I am "off" to do our taxes, always a lot of fun....Not!

Well the U-Haul is all loaded with everything but the freezer and scooter and they will go on in the morning.

Time now to relax before I have to get ready so the taxi can run and then be off to work the fish fry!

L4l have fun with the taxes. May all go well for ya!

Darlene glad you chose for an extra day off. Enjoy!!!

Ana I am worn out reading about all you did this morning. Have a nice run with the dogs and hope Merlin comes through with little or no side affects!!

Have a wonderful rest of the day everybody!!!


Nan

Good Morning Boomies! Spring is here, at least for today!! It is in the low 70's and I'd be doing cartwheels if I could!! Instead I will get drunk on the sunshine. I hope Merlin has a good time, Ana, without bad results. They are so precious to us. Midgie, my heart goes out to you and your family. Prayers for all of you. My dogs are begging to go out and smell the warm air and play and dig...oh how they like to dig!!! Hope everyone has a great day and Happy Gaming!!

Finally made contact with my yard kid. He called to ask if I hated him and could I forgive him. Sigh. Then he came over and we chatted. I told him I don't hate him, nothing to forgive BUT I wanted a definite day and time to get my yard done, no excuses, no cancellations, no lies.

We agreed on Sunday at 10 am. I have little confidence that he will show. I do however now have his schedule for his DUI classes. Aha. Tricked him into letting me copy it. 12 weeks 18 classes and counseling. All after 5 pm so he's totally been lying about all the 'other' times he went to class and had to cancel the yard work. I already knew that. He's not remembering all the stories he has told me and I'm not going to try to 'fix' him. Too much effort. I'll be thrilled if he shows on Sunday and does a good job.

To illustrate his way of thinking: When he came yesterday at 5 pm, he said he had worked all day but would do my front yard right then. Ummmm, didn't he just tell me he had to be at his first DUI class at 5:30? I have a good memory. It took me 5 minutes of convincing to get him to hurry off to his class and not cut my yard. The class is only 2 blocks from here, but 5 pm to 5:30 AND cutting grass?? Geez. His brain just doesn't work right. Poor kid.

So I wait. I told him that if he failed to show on Sunday at 10 am, I would get someone else to do the job. Hopefully he will show. Hate to throw him out when he's been doing stuff for me for 4 plus years now. Hoping for the best.

Ahhhh, taxes mostly done...missing some 1099's which we can pick up on Monday. Hubby at the park with the boys. Sky bringing me everything in the den that he can pick up. Heading up to lie down for a bit before it's time to make dinner.

I am officially exhausted. I don't even have the strength to hit the showers which I definitely need. I ended walking up the dogs 2 miles because Merlin was keeping a reasonable pace and not flying around at top speed. Then I went to the river on my bike and made it 18 miles. Not bad for my second outing and after all the other stuff. I found a dead coyote today too. Much tinier than they appear when I see them running around.

be back...maybe I can make it to the shower.

Awww Ana, dead coyote, how sad.

And in other news: My yard kid called, on a totally different matter! He and his sister-in-law had taken in a roommate and they want her out. He says she's weird and bossy, and accusing them of stealing, etc. So he wanted me to write up an eviction type notice to get rid of her. I asked about her being on the actual lease/rental agreement or having any written anything. He doesn't think so, so I just did a generic, please move out in 30 days notice. Very official, very legal. I should charge for my legal services. I even included the option of moving out BEFORE 30 days just in case she might want to get out early, so they know they have to return some of her rent, etc. Landlord stuff, I'm an expert. Ugh.

Ana, you make me tired reading about what you did.

I went to bed and became totally unconscious for a couple of hours. Hubby and son home now. Son cooking dinner, good for him after working all day. Hubby putting new hard drive in his computer to see if that will fix all the problems he's been having.

Back later

Have a great weekend everyone.

Hey gang.

My TGIF off was a good one.

We still haven't gotten any.......rain.

I went out with Baby and walked, and dug around on the hill, without finding anything.

Came back and visited with my cousin, and her hubby, who came up from Houston to see Mom.

Then.......I painted the kitchen.

Good day.

Nice weather.

Tomorrow I work 10:00 to 7:00.

Dr Who is back tomorrow night.

joe

Well the taxi is parked for the night. My feet and back aren't too happy with me for the moment, but too bad. Was an all in all good day!

Ana I think it has something to do lwith kreading about all that you did and now they have empathy for you. Nothing like jumping right on in head first. Glad you enjoyed your free time!!

L4l glad the taxes are mustly done. Nice that son did the cooking tonight. Enjoy!


Nan

I am exhausted Nan, not going to lie. I have been in the corner way too long, I have to tale advantage of every moment.
I am glad you had a good day too. I hope your back feels better in the morning.

Joe, how is mom doing?

SpaceQ, any fun plans?

L4L, are you feeling up to the play tomorrow?

Sorta, I hope your boy snaps to it and realizes that he has a great gig going. So sad.

Night everybody sleep well and pleasant dreams!!
