November 3, 2003 – morning

Happy Monday! Really! I’m in very good spirits today — the result of a very nice weekend.

We didn’t get a single trick or treater on Halloween. Another reason why I can’t wait until we get a house — which should be happening in 2004, by the way.

The Blackwells arrived on Saturday night bearing a fantastic chocolate cake. We had dinner in the dining room, which until then had become a repository for stuff. But it cleans up real purdy. I made lasagna using the no-boil pasta. It really did cut prep time in half, and tasted just like regular lasagna. Made my own gravy, natch. 🙂 We watched the video from Erin’s and my trip (I know that’s grammatically incorrect) to WDW in August, which was a lot of fun. I think we should have another girl’s getaway weekend this summer, but with all the changes who can make plans? Then we played the “Who Wants to be a Millionaire!” board game until midnight. I think we’re getting together again to see “Haunted Mansion” when it hits the theaters.

Yesterday we hung at home, munching on leftover lasagna and cake and playing with Max. His behavior is much improved now. I played some Asheron’s Call but truth be told, I’m not into the game as much as I used to be. Last time I felt this way I took a few months off and played Dark Age of Camelot.

Wt: 144. Much better than last Monday, but miles to go.
Mood: Happy
Work docket: I think we’re going to be doing monthly numbers again. Which is good, since that’s what we’ll be doing after Alex leaves. I updated the Jackson boys starvation case page and the Ingle page. Will do battleship section update, careers update, and maybe get cracking on my self-evaluation. I have to get that done before Alex leaves.
Lunch: Healthy Choice something or other.
Afternoon: Rousing walk with Max.
Evening: I know I have stuff to do — just can’t put my finger on it. :/

By the way, I updated LadyGypsy.net yesterday…why don’t you scoot to my home page and have a look around? 🙂

Hello!

About Me

I've been blogging for over twenty (2 decades! 2-0!) years and I'm apparently one of the few over-50 female bloggers who haven't sold out to THE MAN yet; hence this blog remains quirky, homespun, and unprofitable. No big. However, if you're from Disney, Doritos, or Dave Matthews Band, I'm open to talk about selling out.

I live in Southern New Jersey with my husband WM, and our dog Murphy. I'm an adult who likes Disney but not a Disney Adult. I used to work a fun (really!) office job in Philadelphia, but since March of 2020 I'm a work from home hermit. So if you're looking for a childless, slightly round, marginally boring GenX woman's blog to follow, you've come to the right place! :)

Well, that happened.
