Imma thinking Kat and Lori's children could have a mighty fine spaceship in the backyard.
It would be decorated inside with pink curtains (gingham with embrodiered flamingos, natch) and lots and lots of books!
how are you, Laura? I feel like I rarely see your font cause I'm always skipping and skimming.
I'm with Jen on
Sela Ward. I love her. Absolutely love her.
a spaceship in the backyard
I installed the overhead control panel with it's 24 toggle switches tonight, despite not having much time to work on it. Now that it has a rear door, but is minus engine pods and the nose the spaceship has become a makeshift castle. I suspect the toy swords have something to do with that. I hope to get out with a jig saw soon and cut the portals and the top hatch.
Unfortunately working on this project has started me thinking how I could make a better spaceship (using a 12 foot wooden beam as a spine to suspend a cockpit from the main body connected with a tunnel made of 2x6s). Alas, there really isn't anyplace in the yard where I could put such a big thing though and the cost of the wood would be pretty scary.
I'll leave the making of functional spaceships to Lori.
OMG, Sue, no way. I've always liked her. But, yes on the Dr.
ChiKat. Right? We are so right.
Currently, I'm enjoying Chris Meloni and Ice-T. It's a good night.
how are you, Laura?
Doing good. Taking a bit of a break from my working 18 hours a day mode and pampering myself with girly stuff prior to the NOLA F2F. Doing the works this week. Facial, manicure, pedicure, haircut. It has been like about forever.
Next week is the last week of school here. I am sick to death of fighting with kids about homework and ready to vacation with them. They are off until August 10th I think.
What's new in KatLand?
I like her too.
Ok, so my parents are coming for 7 days. Because they have to share their time equally with their kids.
I think I might lose it. I have a 1 bdrm. I do not have children to distract them. Someone sleeps in the livingroom, someone in the bedroom. WHAT was mom thinking?! She knows I get nutty in close quarters. I love them to pieces and really really wanted them to come up here because they haven't been in so long, but OY.
They get the bedroom. Dad explodes into all available space and I can't deal with my LR a disaster like that for A WEEK.
I think I must push for an out-of-town couple of days. Annapolis. Eastern Shore. SOMETHING. I gotta see about boarding the sugar cat in that case.
Sara, my family came to town, and I went to NY. I advise it.

That's a good call. Are you taking off work?
sara, can't you get them a hotel nearby? Sharing your place for that long will be rough!
Laura! I was just out at Indian Cove Group Site 5 this weekend, the one that we nearly got flooded out of on your 50th. It was blazingly hot there in the middle of the day, but very pleasant otherwise. We siesta'd by hanging out in the shade of the big rock propped against the much bigger rock right where you climbed. There are a ton of wildflowers out there right now.
