What Are You Doing Today? (an SKMB greatest hits)

Hedda Gabler

I need to get out of this house.  I'm going to get a starbucks and drive thru Mickey D's for some nuked breakfast.  I will take my wet wipes and my paranoia. We will cavort.

I'm a people who needs people.  But, live, masked, 6-foot-away people. 

  arrrrrggggghhhhhh!!!!!

Enjoy the coffee and Mickey D's Hedda.

Thank you. I hope you are having a lovely day.  Is the sun shining down on your face yet? Did the dreary skies change?

Nope, had yet another bloody downpour. My two fingered gestures up towards to sky did absolutely nothing to alleviate things.

Perhaps Mother Nature was reapplying her runny mascara at the time and missed said gestures?  Try again.

Today has been busy, I slept late which never happens. Then oldest son texted about a family bbq we have been trying to set up since Father's Day. Doing it tonight. So ran to the store to get stuff and then home, was going to do chores. Scott had to go renew his drivers license and wanted me to go so I went. Home again. Then Scott remembered he needed charcoal so out we went again. One stop for bricks, another stop for wood chips and yet another for booze. 

Now it is 2:30 and I still have dishes to do! Sigh. 

😄

Interesting tidbit I overheard at the dmv... a guy was in there trying to set it up or whatever you have to do to get an interlock device on his vehicle because of a DUI and the lady told him he should wait because he hadn't been to trial yet. He said he was going to be found not guilty and sounded confident about it but she said it wouldn't matter. They give the interlock orders out on the citation now, not the conviction. 

Seems not exactly right to me but guess maybe it is supposed to be another deterrent to getting behind the wheel after drinking. 

Anyway, it is one little room and I was not eavesdropping on purpose, but it is hard not to overhear things in there. Neither of them were trying to be discreet. 

Guess I will go clean my kitchen up now. 

How'd the party go?  What yummies did you have?

We had a great time! We were missing Riddik, he was with his mama. And Evan was working but we had a great time. 

We had steak, grilled and smoked with pecan wood chips. Hot dogs for the littles. Ali is a master at baked potatoes basted in butter/garlic/parsley, topped with sour cream and cheese. Pasta salad and grilled peppers. And Marti brought a chocolate cream pie that was delicious!

Holy hell. I want what you're having.  But,  I just gained 5 pounds reading that! 

Honestly, that absolutely sounds deeelish.

I only ate about half of mine. 😆 Leftovers for lunch! I could eat grilled peppers with everything, I loooove them. 

Hedda Gabler

All of that sounded mouth watering. 

I wish I had a grill.  Ours bit the dust after many years and we didn't get around to replacing it.  I miss it.

I like it because Scott takes over when we grill and I only have to worry about sides! 

We use ours even in the winter. 😆

Oh, I did too!  Snow all over the flippin' place and I was trudging out with steaks, chops, burgers, veggies.  All winter. I don't care how cold and miserable it was outside.

Well, now I'm off to watch some game with my kid --Trouble in Terrorist Town.

There are teams of innocent people, a detective, a jester, and bad guys and everyone's shooting,blowing up or knocking someone out with a crowbar.  It's total chaos.  

And I don't get it.  But, it's how I connect with my kid so I will sit through many nonsensical games to spend time with him.

Have a great day everyone!

I have to go clean up my kitchen from last night. Been a lazy morning but need to get it done. Night shifts start again tonight. Always turns everything 🙃

I went to M'Dee's drive-through for dinner tonight because I am Home Alone for a couple nights (fist pump) and my absolute Achilles heel is their mini M&M McFlurry... which I of course asked them for extra chocolate sauce. I'm now sitting here, fighting my way through this chocky good lil b'stard... I will not let it beat me.

Right before covid came twirling into town and life was normal, I made the decision to grow my bangs out.  I look terrible.  I hate them.  I can't get them to do anything even remotely cool.

I was at the point of asking @Sundrop how to cut my own bangs.  I'm a bangs girl.  I have to have them to break up my long horse face and witch-like features. The urge to whack them was very strong.  Just comb all that forward and what's hanging in my eyes, cut straight across, right? Thank jebus I didn't do it because we all know cutting hair is geometry and physics and oh so very calculus. Black magic.

I texted my hair specialist about 2 weeks ago and asked her if she had someone cancel, to get me in there for a cut and color. She was booked out for too long.  I got a text yesterday that she had a 12:15 today.  So, I'm getting my bangs back, I'm going to go a little darker with blonde ends.  

I'm going to be kind of free, kind of wow --
