I took a bunch of stuff to the Salvation Army today. I've been segregating stuff in the cellar for while and the weather was nice and I need the space desperately. While I was sorting I uncovered a box of craft stuff I hadn't opened in at least 5 years and I'm thinking "if I haven't used it in that long, I never will". It was a lot of cheap ribbon ( Read more... )

In a few hours we are off to go see "Godspell". I've only seen the play done once before in high school, and Himself has never seen it so it should be fun. Then it's off to find dinner somewhere ( Read more... )

So I learned something new last night at Bunko.  I found out that every time I shop at Stop and Shop, I've been acquiring points that I can then use toward lowering the price of gas if I buy it at a Stop and Shop. Of course there isn't a nearby S&S gas station, but I've accumulated 504 points which according to the S&S website, http://www. ( Read more... )

So, our morning started at 5 am. We got Himself up and fed and checked for fever. As there was none (he's had a sore throat for 2 days, thinking it is going to be strep) we sent him off to infect the rest of his peers.  We dropped him off at quarter of six, just as the three huge coach busses were pulling in. Toilets and TV, sign me up!  We then ( Read more... )

"Second Life?" I offered when she took  a pause to breathe (she speaks without stopping for the most part).  That was it. So she tells ( Read more... )

So my sister in law had invited me to a party at a friends house a while ago where they have a person doing card readings. I had agreed to go, but then never heard anything more about it. 
The other day she emailed me saying that that had fallen through but that the woman gave readings at a local restaurant and we could have lunch and get our cards ( Read more... )

I didn't win Bunco tonight.  Oh well, gossip and food can make up for that. 
It's very muggy, even with the cool breeze that we have been having. Time for bed.

I won Bunco tonight! Woo hoo! Only the second time I have walked away with the prize money. (Well, half the prize money, we split it to the to highest winners.) Bunco, for those of you who do not know, is a dice game. It is also called Drunko, by husbands who may have arrived back home too soon. It's really an opportunity to get together and gossip ( Read more... )
