[ulysses]

1. This!!!

Now ask me why I am still here. Because I "thrive" under pressure! :hi:

[ulysses]

2. heh!

I "thrive under pressure" too. Of course, Ms Uly calls that "prefers to put shit off", but that's her. :D Good luck getting the laundry hidden! :hi:

[ScreamingMeemie]

3. For some reason, MrG seems to hold that point of view too.

But he's off golfing today... which is what I call walking and drinking beer. :D

How's baby?

[ulysses]

6. doing fine.

He's really cute right now - I have him in the office w/ me while Mama is sleeping late, and he's sitting up, drinking his bottle and stroking his pillow while he gets sleepy. :D

He's gotten into that annoying phase where he won't eat anything except Cheerios or other crunchy stuff he can feed himself...

4. the gym

if i can get my eyes unglued.

5. Take my daughters water-skiing and wakeboarding.

Already done.

Breakfast - check.

Now looking at washing the dogs.

I have to get everything completed before college football begins!

[lizziegrace]

7. Yardwork

we finally got rain and now the weeds have taken over again. The string trimmer's going to get a workout too. The Buckeyes play at 3:30, so I'll be parked in front of the tv. :)

[ulysses]

8. I need to do some of that this weekend.

The little razor thingie that trims the weedwhacker line to the proper length fell off last month, so I have to keep scissors in my back pocket while I trim. x(

[lizziegrace]

10. That sounds like a pain!

I have a cordless trimmer and that's good with an acre and trees. No cord and no heavy motor. The downside? The charge doesn't last very long. x(

[ulysses]

13. I need to just buy a new one.

This one is probably ten years old and already held together in places with spit and the duct tape I bought after 9/11...

[RetroLounge]

9. Update my finances in Quicken

find out who gets paid first...

[lizziegrace]

12. You don't use the

throw-all-the-bills-in-the-air-and-the-ones-that-hit-the-ground-first-get-paid method?

[RetroLounge]

16. Sometimes...

:rofl:

Also use the squeeky wheel method.

RL

[lizziegrace]

22. I use that one too

I have a fondness for electricity and a roof over my head!

:hug:

[RetroLounge]

25. Exactly!

and the ability to drive somewhere in a nice enough car.

[buddhamama]

15. lol

[femmocrat]

17. I just sorted through a week's pile of junk mail.

I also have to clear out my email box. Then I'm going to do school work.... It's a rainy day, so good time to do things indoors.

[ulysses]

18. yeah, school work.

Jesus, but I overextended myself for the fall...

[terrya]

19. Coffee

That's first. Coffee.

[ulysses]

20. well ahead of you.

I'm about to go make my second pot. :hangover:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

21. My first priority?

After getting off DU............get in the shower, get dressed, get my breakfast, and read the paper.......

THEN wrap the birthday gifts for my grandson!

His party is today........

:bounce: :bounce:



on edit: misspelling

[ulysses]

23. happy birthday to him!

Chris has his first in three weeks. :party:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

24. I thank you so much, my dear Ulysses!

Congrats on making it through the first year!

Isn't it amazing watching them grow up?

Matthew will be four! :party:

[av8rdave]

26. Mow the lawn and fly to Atlanta

Have to work an early flight to St Lucia tomorrow morning.

[sarge43]

27. Move compost from the pile to the veggie garden.

Damn. I don't know if I can deal with all the thrills.

[KatyaR]

28. Turn off the AC, throw open the windows, & breathe in the cool, damp air!

It's 69 degrees here this morning, it rained overnight and is supposed to be cloudy and rainy all day. I'm in heaven. After weeks of 90-110 degree heat, this is paradise. I fell like I have more energy than I've had in weeks.

After coffee and the news, I'm off to clean the back room and organize it into a craft room. My spinning fiber and yarn is taking over the whole house--not that that's a bad thing, but I'd like to actually be able to SEE my furniture and the floor.

Have a great weekend! :bounce:

[XemaSab]

29. Go back to the Salton Sea.

:P

[WCGreen]

30. Do my chest thumper and inhale some anti-biotics
