I have been remiss in posting. Been busy with tax season. Nothing like the hours I used to put in, but still a lot for me. I'm in beast mode. After the 18th, I will go back to working a couple of days a week for the rest of the year. My garden awaits.
Checking in with some random thoughts.
Tomorrow we are having my daughter's birthday celebration. She will be 43! Her past few birthdays have been a wash for her due to covid and some other issues the past couple of years. So this year we are going to make it v nice!
GBabe is quickly becoming a tween.I took her to Hot Topic & the mall the other day and she was beside herself in glee. I bought her some Madonna gloves. She said the 80's are a big thing at school rn. I told her that the 80's her friends think of are nothing like how they really were. I left it at that. I also bought her a big faux fur coat reminscent of Penny Lane's. teehee.
I can always tell when Faux News is on a tear about something, because Lonnie my neighbor puts out her 'merkan flag. It's out today, I presume it has something to do with her King's pending indictments.What a nut!
My little rescue one eyed Siamese kitty, Lilibet is growing like a weed and is so much fun. But much like a toddler, if it's too quiet she is either doing something dangerous or destructive. She and Lola are BFF's. It was the perfect match.
I has a sad because I can no longer wear sexy high heels (havent' been able to for a long time). I should know better than to cruise shoe websites.
All the rain we have had makes me think of Seattle and I am ready for some sunny days.
Love,
Houseboat
