TOTALLY GEEKED!

I want to go to Blue Mesa! They have the best food!

I am up and was sort of ready/awake to take my last exam just to get it done and over with and not have to do it in a hotel later today. But professor extended the deadline to Monday at 11:59, so Yeah! I can explore DC this afternoon.

I've been awake 40 minutes and I'm still in bed. Really need to get moving. I have a friend coming over and I need to clean the kitchen floor and vacuum the living room and run to the store. Feeling so lazy!

I want to go to the zoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Itty bitty went last month and keeps telling me that she wants to ride a baby elephant! FWM, are you going to ride one?

Driving up to York, Maine for a wedding today. Should be fun.

I think you'd make a fun pirate, flan.

Enjoy the weekend, everyone!

I leave town tomorrow morning to go to a pro-D workshop for two days. The Pooch will be staying with my brother and his girlfriend during the time I'm gone. I'm happy that she is there because she's good with animals. My brother on the other hand is a bit of a bully and a narcissist and I'm a little worried that Pooch will be tormented in my absence. Not anything major, just teased (which I FORBID) and not treated right if Pooch doesn't show brother the "right" kind of love. Pooch already has brother's number and isn't always super cuddly, which could be a problem.

If it wasn't for girlfriend, I wouldn't be leaving Pooch with my brother. Ever. I'm worried, but not too much.

  My two year old gd loves "ephants" she leaves out the letter L. 

I slept almost 10 hours. I haven't been able to sleep for more than an hour at a time for over a week because of coughing so much. I feel much better now.

Have a mother/daughter banquet this evening. I will have my daughter, mom and grandma with me. It will be fun.

We're supposed to leave for a wedding in 13 minutes. Now there is a Saint Bernard dog in our backyard. DH found him roaming the streets. Collar but no tags. Didn't have the heart to let him keep roaming. Called the dog officer and police. Hopefully they will come and get him from our fenced yard while we're gone. Why do things like this always happen when  you're supposed to be somewhere?

Saints are great. I grew up with 3 Saints. But we are not adopting this guy. He's just too big and drooly.

Our pooch just loves him, though. They have become fast friends.

I went to DH's library & checked out "Non-Stop" with Liam Neeson. About 15 minutes in, I realize that I have already seen it. I'm watching it anyway...I can't remember who the villain is...LOL

That's a good movie. I always forget who the bad guy is too.

I know, right? He suspects so many different people.

I was killing time until I have to leave for DH's ex's house...His son is in town.

 The only thing I remember is it's NOT Julianne Moore.  It's two men.  I just don't remember which ones.

I'm back!!!!

Survived the visit to the ex's...

Yes, I am home tonight, no plans. Been a very busy day. Managed to get somewhat of a sunburn walking the dog. Anyway, exhausted the dog, he is fast asleep on a chair. I am trying to find a movie to watch, too lazy to go to Redbox. Magnum Force is on, but i want something newer. Will have to peruse on demand.

Finished Non-Stop.

It's a Liam Neeson action flick. He's an air marshal on a flight from America to London. 

People start dying...Liam gets framed...

Back from the mother daughter thing. It was nice. Food was ok.

 Did you have a nice time?  Food usually kind of sucks at those events, but it can still be fun.

 Yeah. 

It was nice being with mawmaw. We all had fun. 

Got a pretty mug and pot of flowers.

 That sounds so old fashioned to me.  Sounds nice and all, I guess here in the north we don't have nice small town dances and such. We are missing out.

 It was in honor of Mothers day.  Mothers day is a big deal around here.

It was only women. Socializing, eating, a little encouragement and prayer.

 

The oldest mom was my mawmaw, she is 85. 

The youngest mom was 20. 

The mom with the most kids had 5.

They each got a really nice flower baskets.

 OMG that is so nice your town/church does that!

I lived up north when I was a kid. The church my parents took me to did the same thing. They awarded prizes to women for the same thing Lily said. The same lady won for most kids every year. She had nine kids.

 I wish we still had events as these around here such as that.  Sure would help drive home respect to our daughters.

There was one couple, the one with the nine kids, that was funny. That hadn't planned so many kids. Apparently she was fertile myrtle. They had one child while she was on the pill, one while she had an IUD, one when they were using condoms, and then eventually he went to get his tubes tied. She got pregnant again! She had her tubes tied then. They didn't have anymore kids after that. They originally wanted four kids but had five oopsies. So they ended up with nine kids.

 I would be out of my mind with nine kids especially after trying to prevent them.  Her doc must have been not up to speed on the latest technology and medicine.

 It was a long long time ago.  I don't know what kind of doctor she had.  I was in my teens and she was an adult.  I  just knew from all the gossip.  I would never have asked her about it.  I do know they were honestly trying to prevent having more but they loved each and ever kid so much.  I think she was just one of those women who was the exception to the rule when it came to birth control.  You know, she was that .01%.
