Holidays and get togethers are good, but I find I like my routine more. More conducive to naps.
I really don’t know what’s going on with kids these days. I tried putting a guilt trip on my Nephew last night about mowing the lawn. The old “I remember when Grandchildren loved thier Grandma’s so much, they were happy to mowing the lawn.”
Of course I was never happy to go out and mow the lawn, but I figured it was worth a try. He didn’t budge an inch.
I’m going to have to work on my guilt trip technique.
Hope you had a good break.
We had planned a trip to friends on LI tomorrow, but the forecast isn’t too impressive. The alternate plan (that is; curly’s alternate plan) involves ask and window washing at her apartment.
Good morning Andi and anyone else lurking.
It’s a beautiful, er, night still here. Sun should be coming up in a bit.
It’s still going to be hot here today but then it’s going to be the low 80s for the rest of the week which will be nice.
Do you have a big family celebration on the 4th?
We had the get together yesterday.
I found out the Nephew is leaving tonight, so he and I will go buy fireworks today and try not to kill ourselves out by the pond later.
You and Jim have any plans for the 4th?
Nope, though I just found out last night that my mother is coming down to my sister’s so we’ll probably end up over there at some point.

Good morning, Andi and FM.
It’s very quiet, looks like everyone is enjoying a really long weekend.
I’m heading in, though 🙁
I’m backwards — I already had my long weekend (took Friday off) and am back to work too.
Hope you have some nice plans for the holiday.

I’ll hope for an improvement in the forecast for your sake, ask. 🙂
Hi, Andi. I was just reading about the meetup that super is organizing out on Longah Islandah. Wow, they’re gonna have a, ahem, super time.
My eyes have been stinging and tearing like mad. There’s something in the air and it ain’t oxygen.
There’s probably too much humanity in the air.
(Chicago. October. Much fun.)
It’s not the heat, it’s the humanity?
Yup. See how well the substitution works.
Good morning, Andi, FM, ask, and kansas (hope I didn’t miss anybody….)
I just got back from dropping the CabinBoys off at day camp…and now I have 8 blissful hours without them! :::happy dance:::
Hey kansas, my mom mentioned to me last night at dinner that she had read one of your books recently and enjoyed it. Just thought you should know. 🙂
I like your mom!
Happy Leisure.
Are all your exams done so you can really enjoy doing nothing?
Yep…been lying in bed reading something completely unrelated to school or work. What a treat!
