As far as Parent Swap goes.... both boys were out last night for dinner and most of the evening...Jeff and I had a nice night....watching the Red Sox..mostly Jeff watching. I was playing with our new phone....

finally had to get rid of our 7 year old nokia....
it was a great phone and we will miss it....but we had no choice....the TDMA towers are coming down and our reception was getting worse day by day.
I do love our new Motorola razor V3xx ..bluetooth phone...got the cool gold color....voice dial.....holds pictures and music , takes pictures and videos....

Steven Wright at Foxwoods....


Howdy all,
Jeff and I saw Steven Wright tonight....the comedian...in case you don't know...I didn't know his comedy until tonight. He was fun. Strange dead pan bizarre sense of humor.
some of his quotes

On the other hand, you have different fingers. -- Steven Wright

I was sad because I had no shoes, until I met a man who had no feet.
So I said, "Got any shoes you're not using?" -- Steven Wright

What happens if you get scared half to death twice?

I used to have an open mind but my brains kept falling out.

I couldn't repair your brakes, so I made your horn louder.









a few videos ...check them out...




check out blogger play

http://play.blogger.com/

these are the latest pictures that are uploaded to blogger thruout the internet.....if a picture interests you...click on it ....it will lead you to the web page it is on......interesting.....



How long do you keep your pillows?


Howdy all,

been hanging out with the ma ther and the pa ther ...ordered down comforter and pillows today from Macys.....ours has lost many feathers and has a hole...and is many years old. Also order a few down pillows..cause I have been meaning to replace my old flat ones for a while......and saw on TV many months back that you should replace pillows every six months to two years....well i think six months silly........and two years seems silly to me too....but considering mine were over ten years maybe fifteen or twenty....ha...i decided it was time to replace them.....

So I have a question for you......How long do you keep your pillows?????
Do you wait till the drool has them all stained....or till the feathers all fall out?

Books I am reading

Get one, two or all three of these books...
If you just get one get Ultraprevention
to loose wieght fast...
buy The fast track detox diet...




This Book is very interesting. I really feel that your PH is very important to health.
This book is great reference to see if you are eating the right foods to keep your PH balanced.
Ph Miracle website

Great book...good info... I first learned of this book watching Oprah.
The two authors were on the show talking about the work they do at Canyon Ranch.
A book everyone should check out...
also check out the website......
Ultraprevention website



Another very good book...very good advice on Diet and health. Gets you metabolism moving again. This may be too difficult for some to do. Jeff and i did this after gaining weight and at first I lost a few pounds then a few weeks later i started losing more.It does get your body ready to burn the calories. If i stuck with this diet I would certainly loose more pounds.
Fast track website

didnt do much today ...just starting to get thing together for the cape....
as you know i am complaining about packing...
Today i packed up the motorhome stuff....just in case we happen to get lucky and find a campsite...and also it will make it easier when we get back here from the cape to leave for ct.

Did some errands....mom will love this I bought some sunglasses two weeks ago from marshalls...and the darn things break....gets me mad....all these cheap sunglasses i buy are breaking after a few weeks...never used to do that ....seems like they are making the cheap sunglasses to fall apart....anyways i mad...so i went to marshalls with my reciept and got new pair....ha......

Also got a few things for the trip...like makeup remover pads and bug spray from whole foods....
the pads will work good ..because i dont want to bring a washcloth fore each day....

Went into lexington center and bought two pretty file things to put my to-do lists in and assorted papers...they will sit on my little table by the sofa and look pretty.....rather than have papers sitting all over the place....i like the neat pretty look.....

I think i am writing silly stuff......who wants to know these mundaine things? my family.......me myself and i.....but i dont care...i just like to ramble now and again.....
I am sitting outside now...it is getting dark and around eight thirty....ballie is whining...i think he wants to go for a walk...nobbie is sitting on the red chair beside me.....jeff is at the smoots watching hitch.....i will go now and walk ballie...
he is very demanding

Hanging out....scanner shopping and more


Well here i am blogging again......late at night, I might add....
Today was a full day....woke up at seven and did my morning walk away the pounds tape....went with margie to get color for my hair and then to pick up the boys from camp....
Jeff had his annual dr appt...so i went with him into brookline....I had some errands to do while he was at his appt....Had to have a bra resized......ha......I lost some weight ...and i lost it there.......yep....oh dear i just wrote something personal in my blog..........my mother told me never too write anything personal while blogging......oh well ........ha
Anyway..ran into old friend...traudel...in town...so we went out for coffee....I had jasmine green tea..@peets coffee shop.... It was nice catching up....
I still had time for my resize and more time.....jeff and i had walkie talkies to communicate......I called him and he was still at the doctors ........so i went to trader joes...picked up a nice bean salad and california roll...plus curry chicken salad for jeff....Oh and some nice preserved ginger....had sugar but not as much as that crystalized stuff.....

Anyways jeff got back from dr...had the normal tests ...blood taken etc......
We then went to pick up a wallet that i wanted to buy with my MAD money...here is a picture
mine is in chocolate brown of course......

Jeff and I then went scanner shopping.... Went to Best buy, office max, office depot, and comp usa....... we think we found the right one for scanning photos and slides.... .Jeff wants to put together a presentation for his moms 85th birthday. So this should do the trick.....

I ordered this tonight from buy.com....I really like buy.com...seems like I always get good prices there.....by the way mom, this will be shipped to your home....

Click on this to see the scanner

After shopping around forever for scanners we did a few more errands and arrived Homey after eight.....leftovers for dinner.....and more research online for the scanner before i ordered it.....

Our cape cod plans have changed ......much to my dismay.......the state park where we normally stay no longer allows camping in the overflow area for our Homey.....booo hoooo.....I called all the rv parks in the area and of course everything is full......so the plan is now to leave homey here in mass.......drive to the cape on saturday with a packed car and the cats .....we will stay in the house that Margie and Sandy rent. There is an xtra room we can stay in with the furboys.....

But i have to whine now...cause i am so spoiled living in Homey

not having to pack and unpack when you go to a new place is wonderful

.........now i have to pack up stuff....lots of stuff and think about what to bring.....ught...i will have to start a list.......

I really dont want to do this......Ugh.......
I have to go now...it is past eleven and I need to start a list.....
Ugh.....
Oh ....on the bright side....i found a nice flosser....check out the oral b hummingbird...
its cute small like a hummingbird and sounds like one....it uses a battery and vibrates to clean between teeth....i like using the pick best......one more thing to pack.......ugh
