good morning girls,
There are mosquitos flying around my desk this morning.
One started immediately chewing on me and I got him good. But apparently he brought his whole family for a visit. You know how it is when you see something and then you think you keep feeling stuff touch you? Hard to type while you're swatting.
Yep, getting ready for vacation. Will be leaving soon and back before you know it. Have to go to Kohl's tonight (yay Michelle) and then I want to start pulling some things together instead of leaving things for the last minute.
DH made some delicious grilled halibut last night. I wasn't sure about it because it was a thick piece but he just grilled it in foil with some salt, pepper, lemon juice and sliced onion and parsley and it was fabulouso.
Mel- that fertilizer is the pits. Really stinks for miles. They should have warned you but I know what it's like with the ventilation system. We've had the same problem with smokers standing outside next to the intake valve - all of a sudden it's throughout the whole building. I hope it cleared before it got to you too badly. If Absorbine JR would take out the sting would Absorbine SR make it like it never happened?
Sorry - could not resist.
Shad - I do hope that things work out with your proposal. Have to get more creative to get work nowadays. DH got shot down for yet another attempt. Now it's getting downright depressing. Will cross my fingers for you that something else comes up quickly. Did you get your to-do list done before the rain hit?
Laura - thanks for the run down on the movie. I think I will wait until it comes to video. I would think with the nicer weather approaching it's a good time to get out for a lunchtime walk or even a nice evening walk with Coal. We worked on Michigan Ave and would walk down to the lakefront sometimes. I worked in the white building made famous from Ferris Bueller's Day off. Except that NONE of the interior shots in the movie were made in that building.
Ceejay - I'm glad we are away from the defoliation stuff. I hear that's a pretty powerful irritant. Do you have any specific car in mind to replace the Rav4? We just dumped $700 into my 4Runner yesterday. But it was maintenance items and a new battery and such so we are good for our trip. Just like a person, the older it gets, the more it costs to take it to the "doctor" for a check up
Michelle - I was kidding on FB - it sounded as if you said Zombies liked the Packers so if I gave any hint of my opinions they'd come after me
So I'm shutting up!
It's a friendly rivalry folks. I hope you are doing better in the pain department. Sounds like Doppler is making a wonderful recovery. So good to hear.
Annie - did you get stung by one of those pesky little bees that get frantic this time of year? They know they don't have long to live (first frost kills them off) so they get nut-so, especially around food. Hope your leg calmed down.
Ok, my quarter's up and the curtain is about to shut so I'd better get rolling. Have a good one peeps.
