Re: Good morning!
It's my niece's birthday this weekend! So, my in laws are coming up tomorrow and staying with us. So I think birthday cake and golf is on my super stressful agenda.
That is after today. In which I have a horribly stressful meeting I must get through, and then get my oil changed, but THEN WATCH OUT WORLD!

I need an oil change desperately too. I'll probably do that today or tomorrow. I have a couple sewing projects I might work on tomorrow while my H and his Dad built a storage/countertop thing for our patio. Tomorrow night I'm going to see a friend in a play. That's pretty much it!
ltb - I haven't started yet. I've just been babysitting and spending some time outside.
Fische - That sounds good. I'm still sore from the driving range - I may go hit some balls, but I'm pretty terrible and Robert won't be here to correct me... no good.
I have home improvement project envy. I get too impatient.
Moving. It's a long story but basically I'm trying to buy a condo and it's not ready, but they're giving me a temporary unit in the same building until mine is ready. So we're moving sometime in the next couple of weeks, but I can't figure out exactly when because my current building isn't calling me back about when I can reserve the elevator. (Apparently somebody is only in the management office on Mondays - WTF.)
My birthday gift to Trevor (well part of it) is I'm taking all of his soccer newspaper articles, awards, memorabilia stuff from when he was in high school/college and putting them all in a scrapbook. He thought his parents threw all of this stuff away and they found it in a crawl space a few weeks ago, so he doesn't even know it still exists. He's gonna freak! There's nothing he loves more then talking about soccer.
Mag - I've missed you too!!

Today I think I'm going to resist all urges to do anything. I need a day to sit on my ass and just relax. I think we're going to watch Gettysburg later and that makes me happy.
Our Story MAJORLY UPDATED 8/6/09
Wouldn't it be nice to live together in the kind of world where we belong?
BUT at least I bought wine AND Ben and Jerry's Strawberry Cheesecake ice cream last night. Makes for a gooooood weekend.
Tonight we're going to the Italian Festival in Wilmington. Lots of good food, rides and music
Sunday we might have to help my grandparents move my 91 year old great aunt. The home where she's living is changing from Assisted Living to only Independant Living so all of the Assisteds are getting stuck in the local nursing home. It really pisses me off because I know she's going to hate it and it would be much better to move her to another assisted living place, but my dad's cousin who makes all of the legal desicions for my great aunt lives in NH so she's not even around. I'm just worried she's going to give up once she's in the nursing home

Mag, I can completely relate. Before I bought my Toyota I had an old man car from the 80s and I hated getting my oil changed at the random chains. They always were trying to con me so I sat there for an extra 20 minutes telling them to get off my grill cuz this ain't no bbq. I always insisted that they write down the issue and that I would consider it/show it to my dad. Eventually I just started taking it to this mom n' pop mechanic that we trusted.
Now that I have a Toyota I just take it to the dealership and it is actually cheaper than the old place I went to . I used to pay $35 and now I pay $27. Boo-yah!
We are also putting the wheels in motion for DH's new car. Luckily, I have an uncle that's a used car dealer that buys direct from auctions and will sell us what he wants at cost...but we have to wait a week or two until he can find it and then drive up to Chicago to get it, which is a pain.
I'm also really sad--DH's aunt who is in her mid-fifties is entering hospice care and stopping all chemo and radiation. She's had ovarian cancer for 6 years and her body just can't take any more. She's a great woman and I feel so horrible for her husband.

Alexia and Mag, that's why I sleep with the guy who does my oil changes and other minor repairs. Plus, he's got connections for the other stuff, like body work, tune-ups, etc
Brie, sorry to hear about DH's aunt. It's hard to see that happen to someone so young.
Oh, and as far as weekend plans go, J would like to go riding with me and I'd like to get out on the bike; we'll have to see if my tailbone can take it yet. Maybe dinner and a movie, too. In two weeks, we're going to an Indy race up here - should be exciting!
Do not mess in the affairs of dinosaurs because you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.
I love you Missy. Even though you are not smart enough to take online quizzes to find out really important information. ~cew
Our engagement party is tonight!!! My son's 15th bday is tomorrow and my Mary Kay pamper party is Sunday!
Going to have a great weekend!

I basically want B to cut a flower shape out of plywood. I'll then tile it in yellows and oranges with a black centre. The table and chairs are being painted green, and when I'm done, I'm going to put it out in the yard under some trees as part of the decor. I may even mosaic the chair seats.
Depending on my progress on this, I may go garage saling.
