Happy Friday Dearhearts !
No, I didn't make the above picture...but bless your hearts for think that Aunty has that kind of talent...hee hee hee.
It's been a rather odd day here..nothing drastic or that sort of thing ...just the kind of thing that makes you go "Hmmmmm."
For whatever reason there are approximately 16 people out of the office today..more than 90 % of them taking just today. No one ran around yapping abut some last minute staycation ( aka mental health day because you know that you are about to just flip out and rearrange someones DNA ) and no one is getting married other than one gal at Thanksgiving, having a child graduate anything, no extended gonna take the day off after Veteran's Day...they just went poof.
The oddest part is that most of these gals aren't the poof-er type...the names just made me go "Whut "?
I guess I missed that memo dammittohell.
It's been raining for the better part of the week and while we need it , it's been dreary and icky so the mood here at the office has not been "cheery"....oh well.
Thanksgiving is sneaking up on us again and I wish my brother would let me know for use if he is committed to having Turkey Fest 2010 with us because it will directly affect my Kroger run and frankly, I see no need to buy much less brine a bird for the two of us..either ways fine and I thankfully can take the day off before because I just today realized that TDay is on a Thursday and not Friday ( DERP ) so I'd like to have at least some of the laundry done ...no I AM NOT OVERTHINKING IT AGAIN -THANK YOU VERY MUCH....j/k.
I have no idea what SU has planned for the weekend if anything but I did tell him that even if it is raining, Lola can still get the interior bath done .
I have been keeping good thoughts for my neighbor in her job quest and lady Lisa's Winnie. Winnie has some issues like Xena's so Lady Lisa and I prop each other up when the cleaning up after the "children" is just too much to handle. I am such a fan of Lady Lisa's anyway and the good deeds that she and her co-horts do at Space Paws that I feel so lucky that she is a friend..cause she is pawsome.
Things are good at the Casa, knock on wood and Sistah and Double Oh are good so I am hoping to get some stuff done at the Casa and have a pain free weekend..so sayeth the KLUTZ.
A friend loaned me a book that I have previously avoided and having polished it off am starting the sequel..the books are post worth so bear with me. I plan on leaving them here though because if I take book # 2 home..all I will do is read and that don't get the skivvies done...lol.
Have a great weekend.
Ciao,
Aunty Pol

Oh, god, now you've got me in puddles, woman! Hugs... lots and lots of hugs!
Read your Miz Ree post yesterday, but it was late, and just got back today to comment... and then read this one.
Oh, honey, you do prop me up! Dammit, I'm just leaking here... I'm so damn glad we tripped over each other in this vast thing we call cyberspace.
Miss Winnie is looking a little worse each day. She's not cleaning herself now and it's tearing my heart out. She is alert when she's up, but things are clearly not on the mend. And, yeah, we're still dealing with the Xena thing. It's like there's not enough time in the world now - and the blog, church, everything just needs to take a back seat.
If misery loves company, just got done another email to the neph and niece-in-love regarding their plans for Turkey Day... *sigh* When did it become so hard to get someone to say yes, or even thanks, but no thanks?
For me it's that I will need to cough up the geld for a bigger table (not in the budget but, hey, it's a holiday). Current table is circa 1925 and discretely held together by bungie cord under the lovely tablecloth! Oh, and plan the menu differently 'cause she has allergies. Which is not a problem, per se, but why do culinary contortions unless necessary?
Gad, it's been 15 years since I hosted TD and I should be nervous. Granted I did it for 15 years before that, but my lack of anxiety over the prep has me anxious! I think a shrink could make something of that, don't you? ;-)
Found the stainless flatware I wanted, so that's an auspicious sign!! I know - little things make my day. I'd lived with yard sale rejects since the D.I.V.O.R.C.E. (he got all the flatware) and bought 4 place settings of a pattern I really liked about a year ago. Went back and it was gone! I could not locate the pattern, to save my skin, when I searched for it online. Turns out the manufacturer had made it for Pfaltzgraff (who woulda thunk - it's very modern) and that's how it was listed - not by the manufacturer, whose name is stamped on the pieces.
Why am I telling you about this? Dunno but it just feels right!
Anyhow, honey, love ya! I'm honored to call you friend!
