TAKING A BREAK FROM ALL THE CHAOS....

There is so much going on at the present time...AIG, bonuses, blame Obama, blame this one and that...I am taking a break from it all!!!

I choose to rant a little about my trip to Wally World yesterday. There are actually three Walmart's, equi-distant from my home, so yesterday I chose the one on the WV side of the river, south of my home. WTF is it with older women (that would be my age group), and GOING BRALESS???? I have been cursed or blessed in some minds, with boobs that have to be suspended in a bra at all times. God forbid I was a jogger, I would suffer a broken jaw and two black eyes, with these babies flopping wildly on their own. Oh...and FYI...I would not know if it is true or not that going braless - pulls the wrinkles out of your face or not!

These - and there were several - women were on the plus size, and wearing thin t-shirts or tank tops - and to even suppose they might be wearing a good foundation was a no-brainer. Gross, I tell you. Damn, their shoulders and backs have to kill them at the end of the day. Being nauseated almost immediately, I hurried my shopping and left the premises.

Sorry son...I know you get the creeps when I talk boobs and stuff!!! It just has to be said. I guess I must be blessed that they weren't wearing bikini's or thongs (I didn't check that close).

I have been shackled to the puter and calculator, as many of my clients are running later than usual this year. Usually I have a lull the first two weeks of March - but it has really been steady. The one client I have been working on for two days (still not complete), barters with me for their return. He is a contractor - and bartering works so well for me. I can't decide whether I want more gravel to expand the parking beside my house - or maybe get a new french door for the kitchen - which would involve closing in part of the wall. Decision, decisions...life is tough. I have a NINE foot sliding glass door in the kitchen - which I loved when I bought this house, but now it needs replaced as too much cold air comes through.

I had a large great dane/black lab mix dog - who jumped on the door constantly, which definitely loosened the door in the tracks. The screen is shot - yes, a new door, this would be my ideal change this year.

This is my NEW computer wallpaper...a panoramic shot of Pittsburgh with SIX Super Bowl trophies throughout the background. Awesome.

I should be able to polish off the bottle of Vodka tonight with a couple more appletini's. Thedaughter is shocked....I say "get over it!" It's not like I do this for a living.

I ran out of some supplies and headed to Staples a short time ago - and took along the four empty laser cartridges - they give me a $3 coupon for each one - isn't that cool. In the past, I have always shipped them back to HP via UPS - no money for me or nothing. I try to avoid Staples at all costs though...I could shop in there for hours. I need a new printer and would like one with the scan, copy, fax features, and they really aren't that expensive. But I have my priorities and a new printer isn't on the list this year. I'm sad about that, but what can I do.

Gotta run for now...everyone behave. I'll return....later.........

**I just noticed I LOST one of my followers..wuz up with that? They are hard enough to get as it is! Curses. And please stop by and read Margaret & Helen's latest entry.
