It is time to update this thing.....

I know someone reads this blog because my old pal "pika" (that is her MSN name) msn'd me tsk tsking my lack of blog updates. I have signed in a few times intending to update - but have drawn a blank when it got down to the typing part.

Doing a little on line banking and shopping tonight - ordered some clothes from Sears online. I probably will end up returning them; I have been ordering a lot of clothes and sending them back because they do not fit the way I like nor do they look as expected. But, one of these days, I will find something that works!

Saw "The Upside of Anger" last weekend with Big Sister and JM (the other person that reads this blog). If you like Kevin Costner and/or Joan Allen, you must see it. That is all I can say on the subject!

Work has been going well - except I called in sick on Tuesday because I felt I needed a day for just me. A very relaxing day as I slept in a couple of hours. Watched "You've Got Mail" - I bought the DVD awhile back for $10 and hadn't got around to watching. I think the last time I saw that was when it was in the theater (1998). Cute movie! And did some housework (vacuming, dusting, rearranging knick knacks on the mantle and hutch) because I find that a day cannot go by without me being compeled to do so. A little bit of it anyway.

plans for the weekend - getting hair done (going back to blond, one highlight session at a time) after work Friday night. Have some tentative plans to meet up with a couple of friends at Churchills pub afterwards. I have the majority of the weekend to myself as husband and SS are going to be at the in-laws for Friday and Saturday. Husband is assisting with an extracation course (firefighting "stuff") up that way and SS is having a visit with his Nanny. I hope to sleep in on Saturday and I may go to church on Sunday morning. I actually went last Sunday as SS had a reading to do in conjunction with the Baden Powell program (aka cubs). It was the same church that "pika's" sister and husband attends so I didn't feel too out of place. Also, my great-great-great grandparents and one great-uncle are buried in the church yard, and another great uncle and Aunt were married there. There is also a stained glass window dedicated to g-g-g-gparents from 1902 that we sat beside, so....I would like to attend again. Should bring my husband sometime, too (he was working last weekend).

I am sure I will also go shopping with Big Sister on Saturday at some point. I emailed JM today suggesting doing lunch or something but no answer yet - JM, let me know.

Going to sign off now and get ready for bed......
