- Started reading Claudia's book.
- Discovered a great new blog - 'Catalog Living' (Click to check it out - very funny)
- Packed up most of our apartment so we could move this weekend.
- The problem I have with most technology is that you usually have to know a certain level of math and/or science to setup, operate or repair it. (Which is fine but what about the other 99 % of us - huh)
- The problem I have with living in a year round sunny, warm climate is that you have to shave your legs all the time - not just for a few months in the summer ...
- The problem I have with giving up a land-line and primarily using a cell phone is that I keep forgetting to make sure it's on ring & not vibrate so I can hear it.
- The problem I have with living in this apartment is that I have to park 4 stories underground and live 6 stories off the ground. (unnerving in earthquake country)
- The problem I have with relocating is having to make all new friends (something I am not good at)
5 Things I am hoping for:
- A quick & painless house sale
- A successful home purchase
- A job - any job. Will work for __________! (you fill in the blank)
- A trip to Napa Valley with Mike in October
- A new Kitty cat (when I get a house)
- That Aidan loves grade 2!
- That Dad has no more problems with his hip or scooter.
- That I get to go see either "The Last Exorcism' or the "Takers" tonight.
- That we go eat Sushi this weekend.
- That I am reunited with my Tivo soon.
5 Things I am praying for:
- That Dana gets the job she recently interviewed for, really wants and is so ready for!
- That the miner's trapped in Chile are able to stay safe & sane until they can rescue them! (33 men trapped in a 600 sq. ft. room - 1/2 mile underground for 4 months ...)
- That Ron & Yuping have a safe & wonderful trip to China.
- That I win the $133 million dollar lottery this weekend (LOL - I'll share)
- That every one I love has green grass to play on, sunny skies to play under and a warm bed to sleep in.
-Happy Weekend Everyone -

Okay, I am routing for the $133 million as well. I assume if you won that much the nieces would be included in the wealth!!!LOL

Absolutely!!!
ReplyDeleteI would for sure buy one of the townhouses at Parksville for everyone to share. Heck! maybe two of them - then two families can vacation together without being crowded!
First, I've got to get myself dressed and walk over to the mall to buy a ticket.
I sure enjoy reading your blog. Thanks for the love and prayers.
ReplyDeleteWhere are you??? Everyone in my house forgot my birthday today and I went straight to the blog knowing my birthday wish would be there and it was MISSING!!!!!

Great lists! I live in a warm climate, but I definitely don't shave my legs as often as I should...oops!
