OK, LJ ate my first post so I'll try a second time. I think I already posted about our friday plans changing so we didn't go out-we were both tired and the weather was icky so we spent some time playing with the puppy. Saturday I went to DBP and brids_owlwoman's  to drop off some soup for them. I got SueB to goto the grocery store with me and then ( Read more... )

Healthy groceries cost so much more than less healthy choices? I just spent A LOT of money at the grocery store-and we even ate before we went so we wouldn't fall into the shopping hungry trap! Of course, we did get some prepared stuff and that always costs more but I think the organic stuff just costs more. Sigh, whatever-just feeling grumpy about ( Read more... )

Ya know, its almost like found money on some days! I played in 4 one table tournaments today-sucked in one, but placed 3rd and two 1st places! 3rd in this case meant I made my money back for entry fees plus a little. It starting to feel like I'm back in my groove. I stopped playing for a while due to chemo dragging me down but I'm having some ( Read more... )

And it started so well too! Got up, had breakfast, read a bit before watching a poker show I had recorded (Poker AfterDark). Thus inspired I crated the puppy and went upstairs to play a little Texas Hold 'em. I was doing ok in my ring game (regular table game) and entered a tournament. It was a big one but I got registered in time and "sat" at my ( Read more... )

For some reason I just couldn't get going this morning...no idea why but I slept late and then messd around until I realized half my day was gone and I hadn't done anything! I got in gear and cleaned out the fridge, did the dishes and cleaned the kitchen up a bit. After taking out a bag and a half of really nasty fridge waste, I went to the grocery ( Read more... )

I was good but it was hard! I went to Ikea today with DBP and bought the three bookcases I needed to finish my room plus some extra shelves for those cases so I can have some smaller spaces and not waste as much space. DBP is THE MAN! I helped get teh things on the cart but he loaded them into the truck and got them inside and upstairs all by ( Read more... )

What a freakin' day! I just couldn't get myself in gear for some reason. Well, ok it might be because I did a lot this weekend and wore myself out but still! I watched some stuff I had on DVR and did a little work in my room. Then I spent the rest of the day reading and working on a computer project I started a little while ago. I'm thinking that I ( Read more... )

Note to self:Lawn care spreaders have shit for tires! By the time I got home tonight and started spreadig salt, the tires had no traction on the driveway and wouldn't turn. I ended up using it to cart around salt that I spread by hand! STUPID ICYNESS ( Read more... )

Just back from our neighbor's house...her middle son turned 16 and asked if we wanted to join them for his birthday dinner. Met a cool guy and his wife there, he plays in a band called Slo-motion http://www.slomotionband.com/home.cfm and I think we're going to go see him on Feb 3rd. They play a variety of music and I had a blast talking music and ( Read more... )
