Causing a ruckus??

It involved a grocery bag breaking at checkout, smashing of his toes and a customer service visit. That's all SIL got. Never know, with him. He's got a pretty mild temper, but a very sharp, smart tongue and a willingness to go with brutal logic to the mat over something. Probably irritated someone with his refusal to let go.

Good times.

And the patriotic singalong just started with God Save The Queen! I mean, My Country Tis of Thee - but you couldn't hear anyone singing, so it might as well have been the other...

They make fake B&B in four by eight sheets. The real stuff looks so much better, but it's a pain to do, plus, way more expensive.

And these days, the wood is total crap and generally way too crooked.

my last real person crush just got engaged. hmmph. not that I have a crush on them anymore or anything, just hmmph. getting damn near to last one single in a certain group of folk.

Being kicked out of Walmart is a feat.

Noah and Grace are siting in Grandpa's living room playing with books and reading. The lack of humidity in Idaho is not good for our little girl. Well, neither is the altitude. Her pulse ox levels were low on the first day but have adjusted. Poor noodle.

In other news, Idaho is making me fat(ter).

It's weird listening to the booms out the window and seeing the fireworks on the tv. Next year, I go outside!!

I know, right? And even in Alabama. (which..yeah, I shouldn't stereotype., but I've run into so many things down there, even at the University, that just make my jaw drop to the floor and spluttering some vague pushback.) Bama is...different. I'm grateful for the people my brother and SIL are, so my nephews don't get some of those attitudes. It was interesting to watch my SIL's interactions with other parents at school registration. She talked with everyone and made tons of line-friends, but there were some clear class and race distinctions happening there.

I can hear booms outside, but can't see the fireworks from my porch.

The light in my kitchen burned out, and when I went to replace it it's a weird little halide bulb or something. Have to stop by a hardware store tomorrow and pick one up. Gives me an excuse not to finish the dishes tonight!

Apparently, my brother got asked to leave WalMart today. I am so proud... WTF?

I have no idea what this is about, but getting thrown out of Trump Tower and Empire State Building and WTC on the same day is something my BFF and I look back on with pride.
