Our Day Today ~ Oct. 7, 2006

OK- as my mama would have said,"I'm worn out tonight."...Or maybe it was "I'm WORE OUT tonight!"
Whichever way she would have said it - equals the way I feel tonight...which is totally BEAT!

I was up very late last night! Or, rather it was, late- into the early hours-that I was up! Can you believe making potato salad and stuff well past mid-night? LOL- and breaking a jar of Claussen Kosher Dill pickles in my haste in finishing up the clean-up chores! I just had to laugh at the absurdity of the whole thing! Here I had just finished this 'Masterpiece' bowl of potato salad ( even under rushed conditions) and I end the whole thing by letting that jar of pickles slip through my fingers!
( would you have laughed or let go a few choice cuss words??) ;)

Truth be told, I was not ONLY doing potato salad, baked ham, etc., I also was listening to some fine Moody Blues music! I get caught up in the music and need it to relax enough to be able to sleep!...Anyway, with my music, potato salad making, and breaking of pickle jars-and the necessary clean-up, I did not get to sleep 'til around 3:00 AM!

Was up by 7:00 AM to finish my preparations for our company!

Here are the folks who were here!

First- the old folks of the farm...Charlie and me!!


This is me with 2 of my sisters and my SIL

This is Charles with the Brothers-in-Law (my bro Ray on the R)

Some little boy nephews! ( great or grand...but ALL little boys are Great and/or Grand- aren't they!! )

Alli and some second (or third?) cousins she had not seen in a while.

This is my sister and her son and granddaughter.

Alli and Gabbo :)










My sweet granddaughter, Alli!






Alli with 'Ginga!'


Oh-and if anyone noticed the strong smell of pickles, no mention was made of it! :)

It was a good day.

Now I'm off in search of some ZZZZzzzzzzz's!
