STAR TREK, ETC

IT IS COMING.....ONLY DAYS AWAY..........

I went to our local Burger King this a.m. to get my glasses. My hubby, who knows my quirks, left me a god awful amount of $$ to get a set of glasses... At 6:03 am, they didn't have access to them yet. At 10:13 am, post shopping, I got a whole set for not the cost of 4 BK meals + glasses, only 1, I was hungry anyway, and the cost for the cups. So I left BK with a breakfast meal, it was actually gross, and 4 Star Trek cups.....

I think I need another Kirk, if I use this one, I might need it for my box of Star Trek memorabilia....I am a geek, I admit it....

We were without phone and internet for most of the weekend. I had used my minutes up so we were without a cell phone as well. I missed the continuing education class in Iowa City because I couldn't look up the time and didn't have the phone to check. Come to find out, the splitter for the various tvs, etc wasn't done correctly, as my hubby swore it was, so he adjusted and it came back on...........They still haven't buried the line in the back yard yet, but supposedly that's the city contractor's fault that they have to go through....I have cable, internet, and phone.....That hasn't happened for quite awhile....

PS-At least I didn't actually NEED the continuing education, otherwise I really would have been screwed-

Post Weekend Update

A busy weekend for me! We went on a cancer walk in Des Moines. My sister, my niece, and I went to a new location for the event this year....We got lost twice, and I wasn't driving, but we made it....It was actually a glorious day full of sunshine and a light breeze and it was probably about 70 degrees when we walked so that was nice. They had a breast cancer survivor tent where I went to collect my goodies....It will be five years this year.........the whole thing got the best of me and I broke down in tears, but the day went on and we had fun.....Have pics to post, should I get them loaded.

Graduation Days

I can tell it is graduation time and that everyone I know is getting older, and so are their kids. Every Tom, Dick, and Harry that I have ever known is now sending me graduation announcements for their kids.....Oh joy, oh my bank account!

Why I Have Cats by Me

I have cats so when I wake up in the morning I can find 6 inches of cat barf in my closet. (I measured). The end..

Update

My eyes have new glasses, which I hate. New glasses drive me batty. I can never get them to feel right and it makes life interesting to say the least. The bifocal bump up is nice. I like the extra bang I get with these.

Spent the weekend (a long one) in MN with BFF and Hannah. Spent some money, got some cont ed, cheese, and shoes which are all priorities on a trip up North. I think I've met my cont ed requirement but am going to take the child abuse and adult abuse course to finish it up....

The cats got presents from MN which was nice for them. They like their tent and I found my beautiful black boy cat sleeping quite soundly in a pink cat bed with bows....I do worry about him sometimes....HAHA. It was quite adorable and we just stared at him for a couple of minutes.

The job front--interesting. My manager is on sick leave from B&B so I'm not enjoying it quite as much these days...

I am going out to trim the yard and try to get motivated for the day--

I was a bad girl and put a picture of my hubby and his siblings in the paper for their dad's birthday today.....I didn't put their dad's name, or the kid's names but there is a picture...My hubby is 4 yo so that gives you an idea about all their ages...It is pretty cute...My hubby was ready to blow a gasket, but I think his dad will get a kick out of it...You only turn 80 once and I think you need to be spoiled a little bit....Plus, us in-laws should get a good chuckle from it...
