SHEs Organized

Waiting for the concert to begin. Went out to lunch with Dsis, BIL and Dbro. They love to eat at the deli in the grocery store. So that is what we did. It was ok.

DH hooked up the TV dish so we can get the Food Network and a few more. No network programs, however.

But it gives me something to listen to while I am stitching.

If you're that nervous about losing the journal entries forever, lucy...why not scan them all and upload the scanned images to a private shutterfly account or something? That way it's preserved, private, and you can feel free to get rid of the originals!

I'm just peeking in from work to see what the village is up to. I've never been a fan of reality shows, and never thought of the village as one...but I guess it sort of is, isn't it? While I'm not a redhead, Lucille Ball's show bears a startling resemblance to my life some days - chaotic, slapstick, people falling all over themselves, and general mayhem..LOL Another actress I've always admired is Meryl Streep - she's played such varying roles and done them all very well! For DH, I have to pick Rick Moranis - smart, kind of geeky, and really quite absent-mindedly oblivious about things around him! Interestingly enough, I was actually named after a movie star - Corinne Calvet who seems to have been rather scandalous!

That's interesting, Bittersweet. I had not heard of Ms. Calvet before. I was named after an amusement park elephant that escaped and was loose in the woods for 10 days or so in my hometown just before I was born. And no, the elephant's name was not ellyphant!

Home again with ds. I went by the house and things are going slow. The a/c wasn't on - after they said it would be on yesterday - and light fixtures still aren't anywhere near complete. They had installed the doggie door, but I panicked because I couldn't find the things that go on the dogs collars to allow the door to open for them. (Builder had left them in a kitchen cabinet, after panicked phone call.)

I need to get rolling again.

-challah ingredients into breadmaker
-make rice krispie treats for my ds, who is pushing his luck these days
-reboot laundry
-get mail

I hope Cowinkie will get off this book idea and realize this is all just for fun.
Good grief. I've got enough to worry about re: my journals being read by family. I don't need to worry about my whole life being read by the world.
Vivien Leigh playing me in our little fantasy is one thing. Some frizzy-headed actress on the big screen is another.

Good news about the doggie situation see J&C thread for more on it.

Washer is still a concern keeping fingers crossed about that don't know if it's fixable,
but we have the old one so may just be flip flopping them eventually.

Reading might be a good thing to do now.
Granny duty is an over night tonight. I need to get our bed made, dgson can help make his bed he likes to do that.

Heading out to water a bit in the front yard now.

Lucylee, it is all in fun - I can imagine all of our stories, woven together could make a very interesting book or movie - our kids all growing up and us living somewhat parallel lives - one able to advise when another faces challenges, all that stuff. But it really is just in fun!

I've started challah in the breadmaker and made rice krispies, and got the mail in. Need to:
-reboot laundry
-empty the dishwasher
-clean up kitchen
-pack a box, finally?

My DR is almost packed for the move - except for some remaining silver on the table and MIL's china that is in protective covers and just needs to be boxed with some padding. Remembering now that I have our china, MIL china and another set that we use for Shabbat - or at least used to.
