CAKE DAY !! AND I WAS JUST THINKING I HAD LOST A POUND OR TWO AND THE DARN CAKE DAY COMES AROND AGAIN. THE GEORGETOWN FIRE DEPT HAS BEGUN TO RELY ON CAKE ON THE 19TH... GEORGETOWN IS CLOSER THAN IPSWICH...WINDY ROADS TOO... THE TOWN OF IPSWICH IS SO OLD THAT THE ROADS WERE ALL PLANNED BY COWS..
I SAY OLD--- AMERICANS DON'T KNOW WHAT OLD IS-- HERE HOMES IN THE 1700'S ARE "THE ORIGIONAL" BUT IN BRITAIN 1700 HOMES ARE STILL COVERED BY THE ORIGINAL WARENTY--
THINKING OF BRITAIN GETS ME WONDERING WHY THEY PILED ALL THOSE ROCKS UP ON TH E AIR FOR STONEHENGE...-- I KNOW FROM GOING TO UNIVERSITY IN EDINBURGH , TH E KIDS THERE HAVE A TERRIFICALLY CREATIVE SENSE OF HUMOR.. I WENT TO COLBY IN MAINE WERE AN AMUSING WEEKEND WAS HOW DRUNK ANYONE GOT- AND THE AMUSEMENT WAS HOW TO GET THEM IN PAST THE HOUSE MOTHER WITHOUT HER NOTICING. SEEING AS ALL HOUSE MOTHERS WERE HIRED BECAUSE THEY HAD SIGNIFICANT HEARING IMPAIRMENTS IT WAS NEVER DIFFICULT- NOR WAS IT PARTICULARLY AMUSING TO ME-- I WAS NOT A TEA TOTLER
BUT DRINKING WAS NOT A FASCINATION EITHER... IN SCOTLAND SOMEONE ANNOUNCED A FRIDAY NIGHT PARTY-- TO GET THERE YOU TOOK THE LAST BUS OUT OF EDINBURGH INTO THE PENTICOOK HILLS AND THE PARTY WAS ON TOP OF SOME HEATHER COVERED HILL OF SIGNIFICANT SIZE WITHOUT A BUILDING FOR MILES AROUND-- YOU CAREFULLY CARRIED A PEBBLE FROM THE BOTTOM TO THE TOP AND ADDED TO A PILE ?CARIN? AS WAS THE CUSTOM -- THEN YOU SAT AROUND AND ARGUED ABOUT ANGELS ON THE HEAD OF A PIN OR SOME OTHER EARTH SHATTERING CONCEPT. NO SMOKING.. NO DRINKING... NO ONE HAD CARS YOU WALKED.. AND TALKED..AND AMUSED EACH OTHER WITH IDEAS... EXACTLY THE ATMOSPHERE OF HOW HARRY POTTER CAME ABOUT-- HOW PICTURES ON THE WALL WATCHED YOU... GOING BY...
HOW ODD A CONEPT NOW---
******
IT SEEMS NORMAL THAT BRITAIN WOULD HAVE THE MOST CROP CIRCLES -- BUT THERE IS AN ALARMING CONCEPT.....
IF YOU LOOK OVER THE CIRCLES IN BRITAIN-- THEY ARE VERY INTRICATE AND PERFECT... IF YOU GOOGLE CROP CIRCLES NEBRASKA, YOU CAN SEE A CIRCLE THAT IS NOT QUITE ROUND--- AND HAS A PATH ONTO AND OFF OF... WHY CAN BRITAIN DO THINGS SO PERFECTLY- AND THE CORRESPONDING THING IN THE STATES COMES OFF AS "SLAPDASH"-- THIS OF COURSE IN NO WAY PERTAINS TO HEALTH CARE...
**********
SLEEPING PILLS-- I HAVE DETERMINED THAT 1/2 CUP OF BEEF STROGONOFF WILL CAUSE 4 HOURS PERFECT SLEEP FROM 1 TO 5 AM --- I NEVER SLEEP THAT LATE... !!
I REMEMBER..... MY HUSBAND COUOLD "SET THE ALARM" FOR AN EARLY MORNING FLIGHT SOMEWERE BY THE AMT OF WATER HE DRANK AT BEDTIME. CRAZY BUT IT NEVER FAILED.
********
ALONG WITH OTHER PERSONAL MATTERS, I HAVE ELIMINATED ONE BIT OF PLASTIC IN MY LIFE... THE LAUNDRY BASKET--- SINCE IH AVE A WASHER AND DRYER IN "MY ONE ROOM WITH A BATH AREA"-- AND I BASICALLY WEAR THE SAME UNIFORM DAILY- I LEAVE THE WASHER OPEN FOR COLLECTION AND DRESS IN FRONT OF THE DRYER.
IT WORKS. THE FACT THAT I HAVE 3 IDENTICAL SUN PROOF SHIRTS IN TEAL.. MAY CONFUSE YOU ALL ON CAMERA... BUT I OWN 3 IDENTICAL-- CAUSED BY 3 DIFFERENT PURCHASES AND NO SHORT TERM MEMORY... AT LEAST I AM CONSISTANT. I CHOSE THE SAME THING 3 TIMES.
*****
I HAVE HAD A REQUEST TO DO A SUDUKO.... LIVE.... AT MAIL CALL--THAT COULD BE INTERESTING.. SO MAYBE TONIGHT I CAN GET OUT THE "BOARD" -- IT WILL BE PRETTY FUNNY IF I GET STUCK... IN WHICH CASE IT MAY TAKE ME A FEW MINUES/HOURS LONGER...

PIXIE REALLY ENJOYED THE MOVIE TODAY. WE WENT TO SEE DESPICABLE ME 3, MOM SAID I CAN'T WATCH ANY FRESH MOVIES CAUSE I HAVE TO KEEP MY INNOCENCE. WE SWITCHED UP OUR DAY. IT WAS HER 1ST TIME AT THE MOVIES AND SHE DID ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! I WAS SO PROUD OF HER. SHE WALKED BY THE POPCORN ON THE FLOOR LOOKED AT IT AND KNEW IT WAS NOT A TREAT FOR HER. SHE SAT UP AT ONE POINT IN THE MOVIE TO WATCH IT LOL SHE JUST SAT LIKE A GOOD GIRL AND WATCHED IT FOR 5 MINUTES AND LAID BACK DOWN AND SNOOZED AWAY. THE LOUD NOISE DIDN'T EVEN PHASE HER EITHER. SHE NEVER SEEMS TO AMAZE ME WITH NEW THINGS.
WE CAME HOME AND DID OUR ANNUALLY DAILY NIGHT TIME ZOOMIES AND PLAYED TILL PIXIE JUST COULD RUN ANYMORE. MY GIRL IS OFFICIALLY POOPED OUT TODAY AND RESTING UP FOR HER BUSY DAY TOMORROW.
HOPE YOU HAVE A WONDERFUL NIGHT.
