dress day

well today my goddaughter, and her two mothers went to find the most important dress of her life. "the wedding dress" i have to admit i was not sure what kind of dress this my only daughter would want to wear on her special day. this is the child who in her colorful life has, worn clothing from goodwill for a class picture a work shirt of someone named craig, dyed her her a very bright pink, always worn colorful underware, and has had ponytails on the top of her head often resembling horns:+) i was so impressed with the very classy dresses she picked out. she look stunning, like a bride. even the viel looked good although she is not confortable in that yet..... she even had all the correct hardhare on under the dress......now the task of picking out her favorite will take place in the next few months. it will be analyzed in every way know to man or women in this case. but in the end no matter which one she choose she will look like the princess she is, under all that ruby dirt.

home

we have returned from our vacation in punta cana in the dominican republic. it was great. the beach is one of the best i have seen, and i have seen alot of beaches. the water was blue, the sand fine and white, the sun hot, and the women topless!!!!!! just the way men like them. of course when i returned my washer was still not working. but all seems to be well now. back 1 week and i finally i'm getting caught up on laundry. hopefully it will not break anymore since it has all new parts now. and yes when we returned i the one who packed everything unpacked it all also. but it was ok because i could take my time and not have to run off to the 9 to 5 grind and worry about the things at home to do. i love retirement. "the body" did not eat for two days while we were gone and she stayed in the basement and howled for another two. she missed her family. but all is well agian she is back to eating and sleeping 22 hours a day. today i baked a chocolate cake for my family it seems like forever since i used my fine Kitchen Aid mixer. now it is time to pack up and sell this house and move to the great state of delaware. it is kind of sad but exciting at the same time. we have lived here for 26 years. i wish we could keep both houses but it just makes now sense to do that. and retired people should not have to take care of two houses. they should enjoy life.

almost time

Tuesday night we leave for vacation,,,, finally....but one could say i have been on vacation for a year already. we go to the airport hotel tuesday night hopefully before 8:00pm so i can catch AI. the at the crack of dawn and i mean crack 6:00am we leave for the dominican republic. for a fun filled week of r&r. my arms will be on OT lifting my cosmo glass and beer bottles. the only problem with vacations is packing for everyone. because i live with three men and do i need to say anymore. the body will also be in for a week of r&r with aunt lisa. althought she will get to sleep 23 hours a day instead of 22 for a week, she will miss someone being loving to her...and talking to her during the day. well i least i think she will maybe she can't think because she is a dumb old dog. but i will miss her. hopefully the day after we return the washer repair man will be here with the long awaited part that we wre in need of. if not there will be trouble with sears......because i will have a vacation weeks worth of dirty clothing. this vacation will be especially nice because we are going with another family that also have two children and that love the beach as much as we do. also what will be nice is I will not have to go back to the 9-5 grind when i return, i will return to my postion as domestic goddess of the house. and i will be able to then have as much time as i want to catch up on anything i want. i am so lucky.....but of course i earned it:+)

broken

Last week on tuesday my mega washer that i love...stopped working. I called a repair man who could not come until yesterday. he was set to arrive sometime between 8am & 2:30pm he finally arrived at 6:00pm. Only to tell me that he has to order the part and that would be another week!! So remember it has already been a week since my last load of clean clothing was produced. I have 2 teenage boys who wear clothing for 30 minutes then put it in the laundry basket. So today I gathered up all the dirty laundry all 4 baskets of it and went to my sisters. i was painting her bathroom for her today so i used her washer also. Since grandma and grandpa live next door to my sister i also used their washer. Well actually grandma did three loads for me, and i did three loads. then i had to load it all up in the car, bring it home and put it away!!!! How do people go to the laundry every week. why would you have a home without a washer? I remember now the days that I didn't have a washer and it was terrible then and still is. please let my washer be fixed soon!!!!!! then today i had to explain to grandma my theroy on the one-legged sock people. and how they have followed my from my house to hers.......

a family again

well the man of the house is home after a week of male bonding and golfing down south. i often wonder what they do on a man week. i imagine that it is pretty boring. i bet they never meet movie stars like we do on girl's week. they never shop either all they do is golf, eat, and sleep. i bet they don't even talk about anything except for golf and cigars. the bathrooms in the condo are probably a pig pen and i bet their beds are never made. but i guess they enjoy it because they do it every year. Now the question for the day is...who has more fun on their vacations the men or the women?
