Tuesday Note....

Random notes kinda like
Blondie's Monday mop up.........

except it's Tuesday.

1. To the SU - When the daughter's boyfriend is putting the Christmas lights up on what is still YOUR house it would have been MORE appropriate to say "Hey thanks! I hate the job ( even though you won't admit it!) and I am not good at it. Really appreciate this." instead of saying... "better you than me!"

2. More to the SU - If you are going to go shopping and buy the young one $130 worth of new clothes, it would be a good idea to insure you provide an equal amount for the older daughter who has lost 35 pounds and has no clothes that fit and needs anything and everything instead of telling her she's making you go broke. I have two words for you.... $600 camera!

3. Again SU- you're not funny. Your *jokes* don't fly. Just be civil and polite and we'll all manage better.

4. Rebel - had a cardiologist's appointment today. He is very pleased with her general health and well being. The heart still sucks, but everything around the heart is good. Her weight is good because the fluid retention is down. She is eating better and healthier. He is not sure he wants her to go to work. He also said, for some people there is more stress being at home and NOT working than there is going to work. He warned her to listen to her body and take signs seriously. We go back in a month. While on the transplant list we go in every month for check ups until she has a suitable donor.

5. City people came by for an inspection of the house for property tax assessment. AS IF I know the size of the stoop (deck) the SU built. AS IF I know what materials he's used in the garage. I suggested he take care of this little bit of business.

6. I am excited to see my Bombers in the Grey Cup final. Tickets ! oy! An unreachable $400 per ticket. For the cheap seats. Sports bar here we come... wearing our DOG shirts. TRUE BLUE!

7. I bought my first Christmas present yesterday for the RT. Something she's wanted since she was about 9 years old. You know The Clapper? Couldn't get them here ever. And to get it via the InterNet what with the currency exchange, the taxes and shipping and handling. Not worth it. Found it by accident next to the pharmacy at WalMart. Kid wants The Clapper... she even mentioned it again a couple of weeks ago. I roll my eyes.

8. Was going to take a cross border shopping trip into upstate New York to Syracuse or Watertown on the 23rd of November. Then realized... no way... that's like a suicide mission. Couldn't understand why all the malls were opening at 6 AM. Day after American Thanksgiving. It will be worse than Boxing Day sales here. We're pushing back that particular trip to another Friday off. I am so excited to get to a Target Store. Only because there isn't a Nordstrom's within driving distance.
