    Whats on todays agenda for everyone?
    I'm cooking a big pot of beans for my husband. Got some green tomaotes at the farmers market yesterday and he want beans and biscuits. Also found blackberries for only $2. quart , so he wants blackberry dumplings. I guess I'm cooking all day.
    Got lots to do today, so I'll pop in when I get time.

    Hi, Sue, I am and I thought I needed to reboot to get the Board to work faster.

    I didn't get to stop in the Coffee House yesterday. One would never believe my day.

    1. I took the dog to the groomers. I forgot where I was going and had to double back.

    2. I took my car to get the oil changed and get my free car wash. I needed the car washed more than the oil changed. They couldn't wash the car. I have to go back.

    3. Then I was going to meet my Sunday School Class for lunch. While I am out running around they are phoning each other and cancelling the lunch. I came home stayed for about an hour and a half, but left about 2 minutes before they called me to cancel so I am rushing over to the restaurant to eat. I get there, no one there. I was thinking I really don't want to eat so I will wait a few minutes (they don't have my cell phone number and I didn't have any of their numbers with me) and leave I really wasn't that hungry. Then two ladies showed up and said they came to eat with me because they couldn't get in touch with me to cancel. Wasn't that sweet? We had the nicest lunch. Just the three of us.

    4. Then I go by the pharmacy to pick up Ed's meds and they had to be ordered and weren't ready.

    5. I decided to get a new battery for my watch because it wouldn't work. Stopped at Target, thinking that if they didn't have a battery, I would just buy a cheap watch.

    Clerk said, we can't put batteries in watches that we don't sell and walked away. I waited a little bit to see if she would ask to help me further....no, I'm not going to beg them to take my money.

    All the while I am looking for a cool summer dress that has sleeves.....there are none.

    6. Go to Walmart. Got a new battery for watch.
    Bought a skirt ( no dresses there either)

    Take skirt to cashier. The counter was wet from someone buying groceries. Clerk cleans counter but not scanner. I suggested twice that she dry the scanner. She said it is only water....Well, I had to train the clerk that water can spot clothing. [​IMG]

    But the day ended well, when my husband took me to eat pizza.

    Today will be better I am sure.

    THanks for letting me rant on...At least you don't have to read it. :D What it you were Ed and had to listen to it. [​IMG]

    Katie,

    Today, I am going to get the car washed and then go work for my son in his shop because all three of his older children (who work in the shop) are at church camp. He has a photo lab, but all I have to do is type some addresses, labels, or something. Not sure what. I just can't refuse my son when he asks a favor because he is always there if I need him, besides I need another day off from packing.

    Just a week and a half until closing on our house.

    See you all later.

    Good Morning Betty!

    Whew! I'm glad to know it's not my computer. ;) I don't have a problem until it comes time to view my post...then I have to hit stop and it stops and a second later starts again and shows me my reply. :confused:

    Sounds like you had a GREAT day yesterday! :rolleyes: I have had days like that, but I can only handle them once in a while. [​IMG]

    I hope today is calmer for you! [​IMG]

    I am slow anyway. I thought the Board was just making room for me...

    What is that worn out saying, When the world hands you lemons, make lemonade....And, the best plans of mice and men.......

    When you have those kind of days, you decide to go back to bed....but then, you find the bed hasn't been made.....oh well, just get on with it....by the way, Why do we have to make the bed before we can climb into it and have a kip?

    Never thought about adding blueberries to dumplings...Sounds interesting!

    This afternoon, I shall be taking my computer in to get a new soft drive, then I can mess about with photos again.

    Back to the drawingboard. See you all from time to time.

    Cheers,

    Jim

    LOL Oh Betty! I have those sorts of days sometimes! Oh why oh why does it all happen at once? LOL :eek:

    Wow, talking about slow! I will reply to a post and by time my reply shows up, 2 people have replied and thrown the whole conversation into another thread. I figure it's my ISP. During the summer and school holidays, things are SLOW! My computer is new and I've got plenty of memory. I clean out my temp files, use Spybot and etc. every night but it's slllooooooooowwwwwwww.

    I'm just getting around to my tea! My hubby didn't leave until after 9 today so I chatted with him and helped him with some things first. Seems like I'm in slow motion too some days! I certainly don't have the energy in this heat that I do the other 8 months out of the year!

    Good Morning Diane! The board is running slow for everyone today! It is getting better though.

    Jim: I just had that done about three weeks ago. Total cost, $100.00. My local ISP always fixes my puter for me. I still, however, cannot get my scanner reinstalled. :confused:
