Got my badge (check)
Got my thoughts (half check)
Got the MJ entertained (half check, he's on the sofa laying under his favorite blanket sucking his thumb... it will hve to do)
Tried to win me somme money today but I guess my fingers just aren't fast enough. Didn't make it to the 10th caller. next time they will do it again before noon.
Groceryday, must get food! you know real food so I can continue cooking meals. Tonight as AJ says "you have to go to school too today", it's Meet the teacher night.
i'm stuck on my laptop this week because my desktop wont show me anything! I suspect a video card was killed/maimed/distroyed in the rebuilding of my computer. The personal tech has been using and creating words I don't like.
This laptop keyboard drives me to insanity. I just accidently highlighted the whole post and it vanished into 1 letter. ACK! undoooooooooo
I think MJ might just fall asleep there. Maybe if he does that I can go back to bed? no that would be lazy, pushing almost 400.00 worth of food should be a workout right? I wonder if that's what the sign outside the grocery store means? "need a work out?" it came be the gym upstairs because those people just look to happy bouncing around. They all smile after they leave? it can't be a real work out, I've never smiled after busting my ass and leaving 400.00 at the cashier?
The Fall fair is over, I didnt' go we didn't take the kids and we didn't fork over 26.00 a person. YAY! that reminds me my van does need gas, I hate putting gas in my car, I need me a full serve gas station.
My Gas station likes me though because I get loyalty points also for buying various bad for me things in their convenience store and bread and milk and eggs! They are actually cheaper there which totally goes against what it used to be growing up. Convenience store = more $, not here.
That reminds me our babysitter now makes pizza down there instead of babysitting and that means I've got to book a different babysitter this month. GRRRRR
I feel bad that Patrick Swayze has died at 57! that's so young but I have to say it's not many in Hollywood that can say they were still married to their original wife! Pancreatic Cancer is so very scary. Is it just me or do you hear of more people having it? I can count 5 just in my head without thinking long about it.
Fall has been beautiful so far. Oh and I did get the tent to fit back in the bag! I worked hard saturday morning nd realized that I had to roll both tents that were in the bag and the fly around the long poles! win, I got MJ to sit on the bag while we zipped it and then we also zipped the extension down to small again. YAY!
The ShopVac got all the sand out of my van, I was tempted to get out the hose.
Oh and the laptop does know how to get my pictures off my camera YAY me. I did that yesterday but tell me how many of you have paper pictures in your home since the invention of digital cards? Both boys have asked for pictures to bring to school of themselves for projects. It took me a hour to figure out how to copy some pics from FB and then send them to my printer on this. Of course my little helper dudes were telling me they knew how to do it. Sadly they learn on Windows at school which doesn't always work the same for me and my linux machines.
Oh and the critter count increases, we were sitting at the dinning room table and I hear a scratching, I look out the closed patio door and see a chipmunk (ground squirrel the one with stripes) trying to climb up my patio window. MJ and I investigated and then thought about feeding him a single serving cup of Kraft PB but then I got all worried that his poor tiny jaw would stick together like a dog and a piece of gum? we took the PB back in. He'll be back I'm sure just to see MJ try and let him in. It was the funniest when he first started scratching because my window looked like one off those "squirrelized" pictures.
OK I've rambled enough, if you're still here head on over to Keely's and get yourself a badge and ramble on yourself or just find yourselves some better Random Ramblers. OK now Ive got that song Rambling Rose? (is that a song?) in my head.

It was sad that Mr Dirty Dancing died. But when they said he was sick...I kinda thought it would happen.
A gym above a grocery? That's kinda sadistic don't ya think?
And non-digital pictures? What are those??
wow - that was totally rambly. and linux ? people still do that?
My daughter uses Linux too because she doesn't like how Windows has all the unnecessary add-ons, and sucks the power right out of your computer to run it.
I always hated the full-serve gas stations. It was the law in NJ and it ticked me off.
September is the most beautiful month of fall, isn't it?
I'm sad about Patrick Swayze. I'm going to have to stage a Dirty Dancing marathon as a tribute...although I don't expect my husband to appreciate that much.
grocery shopping totally qualifies as a work out.
and, I've, had, the time of my life...thankfully DD will live on
Did you say $400 in groceries? I hope that's for the entire winter? That's weird about the gas station stuff being cheaper, it costs an arm and a leg when you buy for "convenience" here. I like chipmunks, we don't have them here though.
Happy Tuesday!
I went grocery shopping and saved $60 off my $110 bill and I get to go again tonight for Triple Coupon night and I'm all tingles because of it.
You know, I was really impressed that he was still married to his wife and that they had been together that long -- you're right there are not many (especially in Hollywood) that can say that. It was sad that he was so young though.
