It just feels like a mint.

Oh, it is. Cost me ~$120 each time I did it. Partly because I have so much hair she needed multiple packets of color. I saved about $600/year when I stopped coloring my hair. But since I cut it so short I have to get it cut more often.

The Boss did awesome at agility today! That was really nice. And now I'm making Mark Bittman's cassoulet with spicy sausage and a glass of rose-in-a-can from some Oregon winery. Not bad!

Yay margaritas!

The problem with wine in a can is that it's 12 oz of wine and an average pour these days is 4-5 oz. So basically it's a drunk Consuela in a can.

Go msbelle!

School work kicked my ass today. First big assignment and it took me a good hour just to figure out what I needed accessible to complete the assignment. I had a choice of a PowerPoint (with detailed notes) or a paper. Silly me choose the PowerPoint. Each is based on a different reading, so I can't switch now without completely starting over. Ugh. I think the presentation is done and tomorrow I'll finish my added research and I the notes.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Yay monthly game night, msbelle! And margaritas!

Tonight got all derailed in a good way, except for the dr slicing his finger open. I love my neighborhood.

I just got an e-mail about a sweepstakes offering a big trip to Great Britain as a prize. You know, a few months ago I'd have been all "sign me up!" but now I'm thinking I can get craziness, violent bigotry, and incompetent politicians at home.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Home from the beach. The drive was interesting -- North Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia, and Kentucky are places where people fly the Confederate flag unironically, AND YET we didn't see a single Trump sign. That gives me some hope.

Yay game night msbelle!!

I went to a friend's new house party (she moved in with some other folks, one I already knew). Had drinks with a different friend first, then to the house party together. Good times. Pretty chill, and didn't stay late/long, but it was nice to see people. Also, dragged myself to the gym today and am proud.

Our wings are not tired.

Yay friends, and margaritas, and wine, and parties!

AND YET we didn't see a single Trump sign.

Woo! Not the case on the west coast of Florida. But I hold out hope that these are the minority.

Up early to get some work done since none was accomplished yesterday. Mom looked better last night. She is recovering on the Cardiac floor because of her significant A-Fib. I have confidence in her doctor and her hospital so we'll see. They did make her get up and use the potty chair. Since she already has pneumonia staying in bed isn't allowed. Easier said than done with abdominal surgery, but she did it. Go Mom!
