Loving Labels Again

My Baby Piglet

All Aboarrrrrrd




Last week Jim and I enjoyed a quiet evening in Branson while my parents watched Sydney. We went to a quiet steak house (TBones) then to the new Titanic Exhibit that was opened this year on the main drag. I was still recovering from the nasty summer cold and was downing Musenex DM pills like Pez candy every few hours. I was physically drained from being sick and thought that me coughing my way through a musical was not a good choice of events to plan for the evening.
We stood in a short line as the evening was young and really too humid for anyone to stand outside in the hot humid late afternoon. We each got a ear listening device which I highly recommend to attend our walk through (at your own pace). I exspecially liked the to scale model of the Titanic that was used in the movie. It was a haunting reminder of all the lives lost at sea. Objects/items that were recovered from the waters or off of persons were on exhibit along with a beautiful picture showcase of the Titanic from the building to her last days.

T.P Plug

There is nothing more sexier than toilet paper shoved up your nostrils to keep the thin runny snot from running down to your lips. Now don't everyone say ewwww at the same time. It happens to us all. "No more brains to plug up with snot so we'll just run out". But when you go to blow - nothing comes out. What is up with that???? Your gagging into a gut wrenching short of throwing up, sometimes piss your pants cough, post nasal drip, and a two nostril t.p. plug; it's a summer cold. Was this something that Christopher Columbus brought over to the new world? I can see why the Indians died.

p.s. It was 105 AGAIN today

Tim Curry, Brian Bostwick, Susan Surandon- Rocky Horror Picture Show
I was introduced to this show when in the 80's a friend of mine Torry Martain took me to the movies with a paper bag filled with items. I never knew why.........and then I saw the movie. What a great time I had.

It's Hot And I Can't Get Up

Now when it is hot I can be the Bitch of Blab. It is HOT, I HATE the heat. Why did I ever leave Washington State? Water under the bridge now.
Since Jim decided he was going to learn to live with this night owl, I have been cleaning out Sydney's closet to get rid of junk. AKA Crap. Tearing into this job has been slow and very tedious. Old on-line class work, log books, pictures etc... All items that I have had to go through to make sure there was not anything of importance to keep. From 3 huge binders I only kept a 25 point Power Point Tip paper that one of my instructors posted.
2 cross stitch projects that lack a meager 2 hours max each to complete. They are years old and I will vow to myself to get them done this year since they are Santa Clause stuff for Mom.
I tore the remaining carpet and padding out of the closet but cannot find a hammer to get the tack board up. Total chaos. Now I cannot find the dust pan either. rrrrrrr
I'll use the vacume.
And if that were not enough his bunk beds are not complete because of a Tiwaneese who drilled the holes in one of the rungs backwards. I have to wait 1-2 weeks till that new peice comes in the mail. Well, I may be lucky if he does not take a flying leap off of the top bunk till then.
I saw a baby snake today in the front yard. Only snakes would like this weather.

And wasn't David Bowie Too Hot in The Labyrinth? Yeah Baby he was!

All Work And No Play


I have been working this last week while Jim has been taking care part time of Sydney. Now I am off and he is working this weekend. He has been complaining that there is no time for us. He got over it quickly after a confrontation though.
