Home Again
Jul. 23rd, 2012 06:18 pmYes, *finally*! It has been *so long* since I have been able to really be online that it is pathetic.
My Aunt L.'s 102nd birthday party went off just fine, no hitches to speak of. The only real drawback was the 100+ weather, which was just... well, *hot*. But there was lots of food and visiting with people. (My aunt does get a bit more tired than she'd like to admit but she wouldn't miss it for anything.) Driving there was a bit of a headache since nearly all of I-80 is torn up with construction (or as I call it, wasting the taxpayers $$$$$$$) from my usual route through to Omaha. Not fun. So coming back I took the York exit and hit Hwy. 81 until I got to Hwy. 6, and then it was easy driving back home. And so much more relaxing, lol!
And now, I am off for an early night. I will post more later on.
Ttyl!

Today's News and Weather Report
Jul. 20th, 2012 08:55 pmWell, I am sure that everyone has heard about the 'Batman' shooting in CO. So far, I don't think that anyone on my flist was there, though I can't be 100% positive since I have yet to hear back from a few people. This is just so heartbreaking. :( I suppose I will have more to say later on, once I am more collected and such. But right now I am jsut exhausted.
Sunday will be my Aunt L.'s 102nd birthday, and I am definitely going to that. :D I had planned to go down early but I got too sidetracked plus my shoulder and back are giving me fits.
So it's an early night for me, and probably an early morning as well.
Oh, and my little garden (such as it is) looks pretty well done for. The zuchinnis are finished, and most of the squash too whcih I hate. I love them! The peppers and tomatoes are hanging on plus some eggplant (I think). But it's just way too much heat, and next week the temps will be in the triple digits. Ugh! I am not looking forward to it!

Playing Catch-Up
Aug. 4th, 2011 03:29 pmI haven't made a proper post for... oh, way too long. First I went to Auntie's b'day party and was gone -- only to discover by the time I got back, that el J was down -- and remained down for way too long. Then I got sidetracked with writing (or trying to) and then it was time to take this in and get the new 'safety' program installed. So anyway, here goes. And under a cut as usual because you all know how much I can ramble on. ;)

Happy Belated Birthday, Esteliel!
May. 22nd, 2009 10:59 amI tried posting earlier but with all of the modem/server issues, it didn't work. But since I have temporary access now, I thought I would share this haiku anyway. No author listed, though I noted it as 17th century. Enjoy!
