Re: Jean-Louis Forain @ TDD - C&C
Geesh, I asked the guys at the shop to drive the car out from the workplace and they did it with the parking break engaged... yeah, and "I" felt like I did not know what I was doing!
oh well, we all have days when we shine and days when we don't
Harriet, I bet that made for some fun wedding reception discussions!
helian, your trainer keeps pushing you in the right direction! What did you have for dinner yesterday?
CostumeLady, Deep Water Class sounds fun!
Frenchie, enjoy the minivacation!
L.Ann, safe travels and hoping for good news at the hospital!

Re: Jean-Louis Forain @ TDD - C&C
Good morning. I have <10 minutes.
Trissie, thanks for a week of interesting painters. D little dog is a Pekingese. She's holding her own. Yesterday she ate a whole chicken thigh - across about 4 eating sessions. Her eye ulcer is taking huge amount of time and care. She is therapy for Mom, always has been. There will not be a replacement. I gave Mom an almost life size replica for mother's Day.

Re: Jean-Louis Forain @ TDD - C&C
Morning all. Kittykat I hope you enjoy your new vacuum. Dyson is a well known brand. Too bad you can't just put your dollhouse where Matilda can't get to it but cats are hard to stop lol.
Trissie you always have so much on your plate. I thought the automatic transmission was easier to drive. I used to like my little standard cars. What kind of car is dh driving. I think you have a minivan style for you and the kids? Maybe I am all wrong.
Have a safe drive day lann.
Gma I'm glad doggie is holding on.
Helian I'm happy you got an impromptu dinner out with a friend.
Frenchie how nice an extra long weekend camping trip. You needed it.
Speaking of dogs. I should text ds and find out how the night went. So they drove down and picked up their puppy yesterday. A 3 month old son and almond a 3 month old Australian shepherd. And they were going to spend the nights at the trailer because they can't have a dog at the rental. They might be a little crazy. These are the 2 that took less than 3 months wedding prep and then a baby before a year.
They couldn't be happier. The other 2 are a little slower buying house first and get stable and then maybe kids? They do have baby fever though especially after meeting their nephew.
Anyway I am sore and tired but moving. Ugh. All the gardening plus keeping track of the seasonal and till yesterday. I have a pile of leftover yesterday work first. And I actually have a scheduled late shift today. Hopefully my cashier won't phone in for the third time. She better be there.
Need to do thorough routine. Not forget to send garbage out with dh. School run. And maybe I will plant my flowerbed before work?
Send garbage out
Shower
S&s both baths and reboot laundry
Fold some
Tidy laundry room and master bedroom some
Empty and reload dw
Finish tidying kitchen all the way
School run
Check stuff outside and plant it?
Finish getting ready for work

Re: Jean-Louis Forain @ TDD - C&C
Well, I figured I could use a nap before the weekend (and before the kids got home), so that's what I did! 
hi there, Bama, a good day to you too!
lauralind, it's just that I am a one-car girl - I know how my car behaves, what to expect, and getting used to another one takes time (especially if it's as vastly different as a stick-family van and an automatic transmission SUV - even how you sit is very different because of the height of the car). And DH is so into his car and he's spewing like a thousand do this and don't do that when I drive it, that I just don't, end of story
I think I've done less than 20 miles total on an automatic transmission car in my whole lifeI
and how does mom like the replica dog (is it a stuffed animal), gma?

Re: Jean-Louis Forain @ TDD - C&C
trissie, it was a new-to-me restaurant, large, casual, probably too many screens for my liking. I had a Korean bowl - lime cilantro rice with lots of kimchi (I really like kimchi) and beef brisket! Oh my gosh -- those guys at the car shop! One would think they'd know better. I'm laughing - only because you are!
Enjoy time with dh home, Bama! Is your dd home now too?
Hi Peaches!
Ds and ddil must be so busy, Lauralind! But so much cuteness!! I love how kids in the same family are so different.
Good to hear the dog is still holding her own, Gma. How is your foot?
More done - but still moving slowly. Because I can, I think. It's now sunny outside - really nice! I dressed a little too warmly for my jog.
Finishing lunch and then I'll s2s. I plan to spend the time after that until about 3:30 on deskwork type tasks. If dh is at a coffee shop, I might go join him.
