Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

not your mom's socks.

Hey you Philly peeps: what's the weather like? Summer? Fall??

mostly 70s with some spikes. Two days ago it was 85 and then it poured rain. This morning it was 55 when we went out. now it's lovely and 78.

That's all the weather predicting I'm good for. Bring a fleece or a sweater, some short sleeves, and you should be great. Our sundresses are in the 'to put away' pile.

So after last night's hilarious shoveling out of the passenger seat, I decided I really needed to go through my car. Kitchen sized trashbag full later... mostly receipts and packaging, a couple broken unbrellas, random waterbottles. And I now have quite the stash of grocery bags for trash. And I found that lipgloss I lost ages ago. But good lord.

Anyway, maybe I'll try actually taking it somewhere to get the whole mess vacuumed and cleaned.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

so I got to stare at Mandy Patinkin being crazy-obsessive for a couple of hours.

Sounds like a typical day in his life! What was the play?

Now tagless for your comfort.

Preparing for the Manning Bowl. DH and the kids all have their Colts jerseys on.

Man, I want a vacation from motherhood.

I think I am going to have to increase my meds for a while. Or maybe I need to think about getting a live in helper.

Nothing huge happened tonight, it just mounting up.

I'm sorry it is so wearing of late, msbelle. Meds sound like a good direction.

I think it might be time to pull one of the ac units. I'll leave my bedroom one in a little longer, for when the humidity gets up there. But not tonight. My arms are sore. Managed 2 miles every day since friday, and even at a brisk pace, so I'm paying for it.

I need a vacation FOR home improvement. So many things I'd like to get to, but simply not enough time with daily life, especially my daily life now. I'm not complaining, just still adjusting.

Because books.

I'm officially tired of being sick. Blech.

Excellent news about Drew!

java, it's been summerish during the day and cooler in the evening the last week or so. Not sure what this week is supposed to bring.

Man, I want a vacation from motherhood.

I know that feeling. Have you thought about an a pair, maybe?

It is kinda what I am thinking. I could move into the guest room and give a live in the master. They could be a student or even have a part time job and maybe I could pay a bit and give free room and baord. Not sure how it could all work, and it would to be someone trained with difficult kids.
