New Moon begins tonight at midnight. My boss is going with her sisters and niece. She'll let me know how it is.

I gave myself about an hour and fifteen minutes to just sit down and surf the web. I usually got to my most-frequented sites on my BlackBerry. Tonight, I actually sat down at my LONELY computer and used it!! That is all the time I will take tonight though as NCIS starts in about three minutes. Maybe I will look at it again in a couple of days.......

I feel as though I have not seen the sun in days......Oh! that's right.....I HAVEN'T SEEN THE SUN IN DAYS!! It's raining again too. Change of seasons in Wisconsin USA!!

I was going to put my mood as 'lazy' or 'lethargic' but I just walked 30 mins on the treadmill and vacuumed the house; so that just wouldn't be correct now would it?

The exercise is going well; now, I just need to getting the eating back on track.

This morning, I tried and tried and tried to get the hair straightener to turn on. I even flipped all the breakers in my attempt to get it to turn on. I then found that I was plugging in the little space heater in the bathroom and not the straightener!! Duh! At least I finally got the thing to work :)

Moral--If you can't laugh at yourself, you have no business laughing at anyone else

Daughter and I went for hair cuts last night and now look all brand new. First day of school was a couple of days ago, and she had a wonderful day. My baby is getting so big; 11 years old and in the 6th grade! Boy, how the time flies!!

Some good news from work--I usually work 9-5:30 on Mondays and Fridays to type x-rays. The radiologist is going to start coming early (YAY!!). Now I will be able to work 8-4:30 every day instead of only three days a week. Getting off that extra hour on Friday will be AWESOME. It may not seem like much, but it definitely counts as an eternity!!

Good thoughts to everyone!

What a lovely morning sitting on my back porch. It may be raining,but it is such a wonderful break from the heat!

Hubby's older sis and her hubby celebrated 20 years married yesterday with a great party. She was discovering the wonders of the long island iced tea; I'll give her a call much later today to check on her ;)

We are supposed to be going to the county fair today, but We'll have to see what happens with the rain.

Why did Phillie pick up Michael Vick? I just don't get why he was not banned from the NFL. I mean really, a dog fighting ring?!?!

Anyway, hopefully off to have a good Friday! I know the boss is starting her weekend early! Not that it really matters though. The boss can be found sitting in there having a "meeting" with us for an extended period of time, hour or so lunches on Friday, breaks, copier time, printing time......I think you get it ;)

Well, summer definitely decided to make an appearance in the last two weeks! Too bad the kids will be going back to school in two weeks; not much of a hot summer. At least the summer was nice though.

Missed the Perseid shower this week due to heavy fog; oh well, maybe next year!

Going on vacation next weekend to see Mt. Rushmore and other sites in South Dakota. I hope the weather is wonderful (not too hot, not too cool, and definitely not rainy!!).

Now off to talk the dog for a walk.

Boy, is it got and muggy out right now! We're under a storm watch for the whole day. I think it gonna be a day just to putz around mine and then my parents house. Thank gosh for AC today!!

Going to visit my sis in South Dakota this weekend. My baby nephew turns the big '3' this weekend!! So really I guess I'm going to see my boys ;) I haven't seen them since before Christmas. So excited!
