Jo's Kitchen (and yes, the coffee IS on...)

MountainStar · 08-23-2010, 06:48 AM

Awww thank you for the flowers!!! I really enjoy our phone calls and it's wonderful to be tucked in at night

Yet another Monday blooms. I have been up for an hour and took the dog out and then looked up how to remove a water stain from a wood table...I have a new roomie....sigh....you would think everyone would know to use a coaster. Hopefully what I read on the internet will work and take this out. I will find out tonight!

Good luck on finding the labourers...I know you will!

Coffee is on...Tim Horton's brand this morning, along with steel cut oats, raisins, and walnuts. For those who don't eat oats or porridge as they call it up here - I left out french bread and whole wheat bread for toast along with juices, milk, and if I remember right some Dr. Pepper for a Floridian whose girl is making her way there or is there or something like that.

Make it a great day!! Don 't forget to smile and breathe...mostly make sure you breathe lol.

Oh...and quit smoking day is Friday.....the countdown is on!

So I had to call the moving truck place and put it on hold. I am now in search of some labor to help get the truck loaded and unloaded. I have vowed to have the resolved by the time tomorrow is done.

It has been raining here all day.. dark and overcast. However, we really needed it given how hot it has been for the last few weeks. I am sure the plants are loving it out there right now. I love it as well. I have a big window ledge outside My bedroom window and when I open the window a bit.. I can hear the rain hitting it. smiles.

Just got off the phone with My girl. .and tucked her in for the night.

So now I am headed that way Myself..

Here is some and for the late night and early morning kitchen patrons.

Waves to Jo, scoote, Zimmy, durrrrr, Abby, Braedon, Midnight, Incubus, dc, morningstar.. and anyone I missed.

For My girl..

Goodnight All.

Packing is almost complete as I get ready to head to NC and start my new job.

I understand where I will be will have a lil snow over the holidays - this will prove to be very interesting lol as I've not lived in snow in well say forever *grin*

for my staff...i got a bad steam burn from my crock pot Friday night so this morning they got together and re-did the desk duty schedule so i don't have any today!!! AW!

Good evening everyone

Dinner tonight is fried chicken breasts, mac & cheese, peas...and your choice of brownies or ice cream or both for dessert.

First day of school was today, but we only got the registration process halfway done. May be another day or two before he's attending. Of course, that may have worked out for the best. The Rooster is growing so fast that all of his pants turned into high waters sometime in the last few weeks...so we were clothes shopping instead, and then off to the beach. It's nice to see him enjoy the water so much.

Sorry to hear that your move didn't happen Jake. It's always tough when you're counting on others to help. Hopefully it all goes smoothly on attempt #2.

In the meantime, hugs to you all....and I'll put on a pot of decaf so we can all have a last cup without ruining our sleep.

baby....

durrrrrrrr · 08-23-2010, 06:23 PM

evenin everyone

hope y'all are doing alright. I only had to go into work for a couple hours today and the only reason i had to do that was due to a physical for the company i work for. it was kinda funny during the "eye" test. she had me stand 25 ft away from the board. and then she told me to read the bottom line that I could read...I told her " made in china" i then looked over at her and she was like this she then turned around and looked and at the bottom left hand side in small print it said " made in china" she then said to me " i think the eye test is done" lol.

MoutainStar...good luck on the quit smoking

Jake..hopefully you can get the moving help ya need and get that over with.

Jo and Scoot..maybe its a good thing that rooster doesnt go in school for a couple days? give rooster time to get more settled in? hope y'all are settling in and doing alright.
