g'morning

The hike yesterday afternoon was a good one. Happy to report that there were no bee stings again. *g* However, Coon didn't make it with us more than twenty feet past the gate, I guess he heard too many bees to be comfortable. Poor dog! Had fun with the other three, though. We...well, I saw a deer when we were coming down. The dogs were so focused on getting to the little creek for water that they didn't even look up on the hill where it was! But even I only saw him or her turn around and fly off. Too neat.

Got batteries for my camera, but they're the wrong size. So gotta turn those in this weekend and get the right size. Ugh! But, we have our tickets for the fair, so that's good. I'm not listed in the computer, however, so I have to find my lost code or hope that one of the catalogs comes in my name. I have no idea if it does or not, or where the card would be. Aarrrgghh. Hate that!

The Scandanavian Festival is this weekend! YAY! I love going simply for the chance to get ableskievers. They are so yummy!!! I should dig out my pan and make them, but never seem to do so. So, I enjoy the once-a-year opportunity to indulge. :o)

Egads, the rest of the family is sick this week. So far I'm not, I just hope it stays that way. O.o

*looks wide eyed at her friends page*

LJ has gone crazy tonight!! First it wouldn't even load up the page, and NOW it's running all the entries all together and overlapping a wee bit....the background disappeared, and then it came back, and then everything was fine for five seconds. Nuts!!! At least I was mostly caught up before it really started going insane.

day-o, day-aaa-o

Only two more days left this week. Whooooo. And the best news for tomorrow is this: It's Sharon's day off, and I'm all caught up on the current P/A's today, therefore, no more tomorrow! So I can get caught up on my phone calls and such that are clamoring for attention. YAY! YAY! YAY! I never in my life thought I'd be so happy to be on the phone, but it's really starting to bug me that I'm falling so far behind in that section. lol. AND today we got the new doctor into the system so we can print actual schedules! SO MUCH better than the handwritten ones! Hallelujah!

And then it's Friday, which of course is a fantastic day just because. *__*

Ate lunch in the little parking area/park today. The blind guy who walks around ALL over town (you'd never know he was blind except for his white/red tipped cane, cuz he walks super fast and seems to know where he's going...) walked by...with a gorgeous harlequin great dane!!! He didn't have an actual harness, though, so I don't know if he's a dog he's had trained, or if he's petsitting for someone, or what. Cuz he had the leash hung over his left shoulder, but was holding onto the dog's collar with his right hand. The dog was amazingly sweet and just walked right next to him, no hyperness or anything. Was just really cool to see such a gorgeous dog, and wonder what the story was behind all of it. *shrug*

In other news, I've almost talked myself out of doing the Sisters hike next month. I don't have anything purchased except for my backpack, really. And the other three women who are going are fantastically inshape people who workout ALL the time. I am improving lots, but am by no means in their league. I'm terribly afraid I'd be such a drag in that sense, and don't know that I'm quite up to dealing with the negative emotions I'd feel, even if they didn't exactly. So between the money issues and that, I'm not sure I'm going. I may have to wait until next year, but at least we're planning on doing this annually, according to the signup sheet. Sooo.....hhrrrmmm.

I wish I'd remembered to bring some of my scrapbooking stuff over here, but I forgot. Ugh. Must do that this weekend.

OK

Now AOL won't let me in to read my mail. What's the deal???? *grumble growls*
