Wicked Cup of Joe

I figured I’d post quick before I hit the sack.  Tomorrow we’re heading upstate to visit the in-laws.  <edited to protect the innocent>

The newlyweds will be there tomorrow as well. At least my in-laws will target them about the wedding.  Leaves me to dealing with the kiddo and nothing else.  Well, maybe I’ll play with their puppy.

I am also NOT looking forward to the 3 and-a-half hour trip up there.  <edited>

Wish me well!

What is it with people not knowing how to drive? How hard is it to move into the middle of the straight when making a left turn???  GRRRR.

Aside from that (yes, my morning was rough!) it’s a beautiful fall day out.  It’s a brisk 61°F out right now.  Totally fall.

This afternoon I’m hitting the front yard and making it all fall-y and Halloween-y.  Woot!

And I am so excited for our fall trip!  A few chicas and I are heading to West Virginia at the end of the month to enjoy some leaf peeping and catching up.  A real, honest to god girls weekend!  Holy crow.  So excited!

It is disgustingly hot out. We’ve had nice, breezy, bearable weather the past week or so. But today, today is 91 right now. Yuck. And here I thought I was going to save on my electric bill. No such luck.

We got great news yesterday — the husband has not one shred of evidence of any tumors or cancer. So now we just set up the game plan for the lumps that could be anything from lymphnodes to cysts.

The wedding is in a week and 5 days. I’ve got just about everything I need. Borrowing a black bag from one of my sisters and then I’m all set. I still have to shorten the straps a bit — don’t want the girls falling out while at the reception. Would so not be good. Although, I am just planning on sitting at the bar and watching all the fights that are bound to happen. Would it be wrong of me to say that I would be disappointed if everything went smoothly?

Right now I’m in the middle of reading Eclipse for the 4th? 5th? time.  I know, I have a sickness.  But it’s like it’s one big novel and you can’t read the first one without reading the second one and so forth.  But then when you get to the end of the saga, you want more.  So you read them again.  I actually was able to grab the Borders’ exclusive Twilight movie calendar.  Woo Hoo!  Can’t wait to hang it on my wall!  And to continue on with the obsession, I bought the Twilight: The Complete Illustrated Movie Companion as well as The Twilight Saga: The Official Guide (Twilight Saga).  Like I said, I know I have a sickness.

So for the rest of the day, I’ll finish Eclipse, clean out my emails (getting ready for Office 2007 - arriving Tuesday, woo hoo!) and computer — then relax while watching True Blood.

I need an assistant.  I swear.  There are so many things I want to do each day and so many things I have to do each day. I’m lucky if I get to shave my legs never mind do something I enjoy!

Maybe I just need someone to schedule out my day, hour by hour.  Then again, maybe I just need to take control and learn how to say no, monitor where I spend the most of my time and ration off the remaining time amongst things I want and need to get done, in order of importance.  Key word, maybe.

Mondays never really bother me, other than waking up. LOL  Luckily the kiddo starts school later this year, so that helps.  The husband is going back to work today — from 4pm until midnight.  He’ll leave at a quarter to 3.

Of course there is nothing on TV tonight, so, who knows what I’ll watch.  I have True Blood DVR’d but may save that to watch with the husband.  But he does make fun of me for being a vampire freak.  So maybe I won’t save it for him.

I’ve only seen one new show this season — Bones.   Read more
