And we have pistachio butter! Time consuming but delicious. Think part of the problem may be my little food processor is a tad under powered for grinding nuts. Now, off to figure out why I am not getting any notifications from the DIC.

Ok, tim, I have a banking question for you. Why do I need to show my ID to make a CASH deposit with a pre printed deposit slip? Do people really go around making deposits into strangers accounts, using the slips that come with the checks. Then the twit teller wanted my debit card besides! If I wanted to make a deposit thru an ATM, I would have used the drive up!

The really frightening thing is those examples probably were real, not made up in some writers mind

Oh lovely! County Faire starts today, horses move onto the showgrounds tomorrow, ( senior ranger agreed with me that horses and 1st night fireworks were NOT a good combo), and now the weather geeks are talking a heat wave, high 90's, high humidity, and heat indexes well over an hundred. Hope the power grid at the park will support the huge fans the horses will need!

You will. Just focus on being home with your men! Had a GOOD call today. Pony I brought to the equine clinic a month ago is ready to come home. Of course, daddy called while I was in the dentist chair!

It would not bother me as much if I ignored my mouth like my hubby does, but I do the brushing, flossing, regular cleanings, and still...

Busy week coming up. Dentist 1st thing in the am Wednesday. County fair also starts Wednesday, so most of the afternoon will be ferrying multiple customers to the fairgrounds. Have one going to a show Saturday. That's eventing, so most of the day S there are anywhere from 10 min to 3 hour breaks between the different disciplines. Sunday is a dressage show in the morning, followed by ferrying all the fair going 4H horses home again in the evening. My new dentist thinks I am being unreasonable to just want whats left of my teeth out and replace them with dentures. I explained that I am tired of putting thousands of dollars into each tooth to have it fail all over again. She asked what I mean. Take for example tooth # 4. Cracked it eating popcorn. Crowned. Abscess. Root canal needing a specialist because of the crown. New crown. Flossing one day and damn thing falls out. Surgery to remove root. Replace with bridge. Bridge fractures. Now she wants to remove one tooth of the anchor, and do a bigger bridge. Nope. I know how you feel waiting on that last day! Best thing I ever did was walk away from my last job for other people.

Missed this update! Glad things are improving for you! My pervious advice still stands, tell jerks to take a long walk off a short pier, and not just intrusive twits re cancer, ALL the jerks. My life improved dramatically when I instituted a no BS policy.

Warning, rant ahead. If you are not in the mood, skip ahead! Had a lady call me to pick up a horse in NY a couple weeks ago. She was quite happy with the cost quote, and horse was delivered to her backyard barn, no issues. She calls me again a week later, asking for a quote to pick up a mare in southern Virginia, a 6+ hour drive each way. That makes the run a 2 day deal. Drive down Saturday, pick up horse Sunday. I charge half the price of the lodgings on a 2 day run. I also charge for estimated toll money, and if I find a route that can cut tolls, I return any unused toll allowance. If tolls go over what I estimate, I eat it, do not charge extra. I give her a quote, explaining again how I set prices. She hems and haws at the cost. I don't hear from her for 2 weeks and assume she has decided on either going for the mare herself or hired another hauler. Today I get a text asking if I will take 20% off my price. I am not in this to get rich. I know horse ownership is expensive. My prices are set as low as possible to still make a small profit. Cutting 20% means I lose money. I apologize, but explain I can't run a business at a loss. She freaks. Calls me greedy, and says I am preventing her kid from getting the new show horse she has fallen in love with. Umm, no, feel free to hire someone else and please lose my number. Rant over. I'm going back to watching the t-storms roll through.

I'm well equiped.

Not too sure of this. I was told at the show Saturday I can be "one scary bitch, but in a good way".

And contrary to popular belief, one size does NOT FIT ALL!

In Australia

I second that!

Talk to the orthopedic about diclophenic sodium cream, brand name Voltaren. It is available in otc strength, and somewhat stronger by Rx and was a godsend when I tore my hamstring 4 years ago.

I fully understand the importance of an outline. They are a moot point for me since I never seem to progress past an opening chapter, but for Authors like Carlos who have created entire dynasties, not only story outlines, but over all picture outlines are a must for continuity. I just wondered why we were made privy to this one.

Do I want to know why you are posting outlines?

Quite true, but that does not preclude a relationship with Jj. I know many married men with children that have a gentleman on the side, most with Momma's complete knowledge and consent. My question is if Jj is going to end up out in the cold in favor of the marriage & heirs.

He can borrow mine. Nice heavy cast.

It is.

Good lord! I would be loosing my mind!

Right?!?

Maybe! Perhaps he went to domino's when he screwed up one too many times @ the tire store. No excuse, just looked totally dumbfounded. This was a pick up order too. Hubby no longer thinks I am nuts when I check the contents of an order befor leaving the counter.

Ok, silly question time. How does one order a medium sausage pizza and recieve a medium Hawaiian with a slice missing? The wrong pie I could understand. The missing slice...

It sort of has to be. It's too small to function if it was disorganized. As for me and my fry pan, I dont threaten. If it has come out for use as anything but frying, take cover. I couldn't picture one guy Mike's size in my kitchen, let alone two! And I have way too dominant a personality to tolerate them stepping on toes and bumping arms in my tiny space. We decided a long time ago he cooks or I do, both just does not work. My knives are too sharp for him to be jostling me while they are in use. I LIKE my fingers where God put them!
