Monday Musings

[Liz]

Good morning ladies!

It's going to be a marvelous monday here in Central FL. The humidity has broken, it's cool and crisp...predicted hight of 79 today.

Sooo, the coffee's hot, goodies laid out, don't you waste a minute. I'm off on another adventure. Will show and tell you about it later.

Enjoy your day!

Oh boy I can't wait to see what you are up to this morning...I bet it will involve gorgeous photos!

Looking at my list of chores for the week and thinking I can be much more creative than this. Maybe half the list now and half tomorrow?

Diane, I really appreciate the way you schedule and pace yourself I am quiet familiar with that style!

Nothing like someone getting our curiousity all out of whack early a Monday morning!! No telling what you are up to , Liz. Whatever it is, is sure to be fun for all of us. Hope you have a great day, and I like everyone else, will be looking for the answer to this puzzle, of where is Liz?

Beautiful day here, sun looks gorgeous, leaves are drying, I hope so I can rake some of them up. Unless of course, I get a call that shocks are in shop or that my door, for rv that I have been waiting for since Alaska trip to get here,has finally arrived. They come in wrong size, or damaged, so am praying for one to arrive, that can be hung.

Safe and Happy travels all,
Carol

I always say, never do today, what can be put off until tomorrow, if there is something fun or exciting to do. The work stuff will always be here, when you aren't. Don't remember what age I was, when this popped into my head and lifestyle, but life is sure more fun and makes you appreciate each day more. Of course, I am the only one to live in the dirty house, I leave. lol:

Can hardly wait to see what Liz is up to next.

Texas weather has FINALLY gotten cool and comfortable. It was 37 when I got up this morning and my rig wasn't much warmer since I left all the windows open when I went to bed. I, however, was warm and toasty with a dog on either side keeping me warm. I'm off for a swim and some time on the treadmill trying to keep the weight off that I lost this past summer. Had to cancel my December trip to Gallup for the balloon festival but will definitely make Port Lavaca in April. Am still trying to get used to my new computer but have to say, so far, I like Windows 7. The only thing that wouldn't transfer from my old computer cleanly were my business cards cause I made then with a Corel WordPerfect program. No matter, since I'm keeping my old Dell "just in case." Those of you that know me, know that I like to have backups.

OMG, just heard my first Christmas commercial. Remember the good old days when they would wait until after Thanksgiving. By the time Christmas arrives I'm sick to death of Christmas music. When I was a kid we would all go downtown the day after Thanksgiving to see all the decorated store windows. Oh, the good old days.

Hmmm...thought I posted this under good morning. Must have gotten up too early. Who's been messing with my mind today?

[AlmostThere]

But this turned into a good post anyway! People can pop in and let everyone know what they are up to any time.
Me? I worked out at Curves then came home and made a call to a guy that owns his own garage. He was referred to me by one of the gals at Curves. Per Sharon's advice, I need to take Little Missy into an alignment specialist for my wandering issue. That's what this guy is and comes highly recommended. Only one draw back. His shop is made for lower profile vehicles and he wasn't sure my Little Missy would fit inside so he could check the alignment. He said to bring her over as he wanted to check out a few other things, too, so off I went. Had to use my new Garmin or I'd really have gotten lost. Washington state roads are the pits for trying to find any place not in the city!! Even people's private driveways have numbered signs! Today it went from 144th st to 139th st in one jump. No inbetween #s! Some roads stop in one spot and then you have to pick it up again a mile away. And if you haven't a clue how to take the round about way to find it, well, good luck!! Luckily my Garmin did a great job. My problem was when I missed 139th there was no place to turn around on the narrow two laned country road. So I did get to enjoy some of the beautiful countryside as the Garmin got me back on track.
Woody, yes that's the guy's name, checked out Little Missy the best he could and he was correct, in that she wouldn't fit in his garage and he needed a level place to do the alignment testing. He did jack up each of the front tires and checked out a few things and said all looked good. He then gave me the names two different places that he knew of that I could take her to for the alignment check as he says that's about all he can think of that "might" be the problem.
Woody lives in a gorgeous place in Hockinson, WA. He has wild deer in his yard that come right up to him! One hung out with us the whole time. He said in the Spring the Moms come to his yard with their new babies and leave them there while they go forage. SO cool!
Ok that's my day so far!
