Tuckered Wednesday

I am beat. To drink 74 ounces of water today--wore me OUT!

So much to do. My kitchen floor screams to be mopped and clothes wonder what it feels like to be hung in a closet and dust whispers it's tired of being on the piano.

Oh well. Chicken awaits to mingle in a bowl of lettuce and spinanch as today's episode of the Young and Restless glides by on the TV.

Priorities.

Almost...

But not quite. The weekend---the LONG weekend. So in the meantime, after all the DWTS and American Idol, plus the banter I had going back and forth on chums' Facebook Walls, I'm ready for a breather! See, they were for Kris Allen, and I wasn't. Uh...I said no more Idol until 2010...I lied. Oh, and wouldn't ya know, one of those chums said I really knew how to stir up the pot.

Sweet!

Did the Senior Rec Center tonight and tomorrow morn, I'll step on the scale to see if it screams as loud. Hope not. Funny, how much I missed the whole bike, treadmill and read routine. Getting my nerve to do the pool there. My bestest good best friend, Bingo agreed she'd walk it with me. After the over 30 years, we've known each other, Bingo didn't realize how terrified of water I am. Like to be around it, wade, yet gotta always touch the bottom. Life as synchronized swimmer woulda been a dream unfilled.

I could go on and talk about a bunch of stuff, but ya know, that's what tomorrows are for. Right how, gotta finish putting the trash out, eat a salad, pet a cat and watch today's episode of the Young and the Restless.. I just want to slap Jill and wish I could remember the back story of Mary Jane and not feelin' Cybil Sheppard's daughter Clementine as Mac. Anyhoo, the train to Genoa City awaits.

And cue up the Commodores with "Sweet Love" just because I heard this in the grocery store tonight. Reminded of how good a song this is especially before Lionel Richie became LIONEL RICHIE, and when he played in a group.

Word Up Walk Wednesday

Made it for a walk around the park before night fall. Got a kick watching the ducks do their paddle thing in the pond. Nice word shared with God as I trekked. Needed guidance on the short story I can't seem to pull together--it's really two stories in one, which was not the plan. Heck, I needed guidance---period.

And then Maurice Green was booted from Dancing With the Stars....ya know, he was good, yet he favors a guy from church--who wound up being pretty nasty. I critiqued an article of his not as good as he wanted. Oh well. He called me what a female dog is called....so even tho Maurice was good--he looked TOO much like the idiot from church.

OK--and Young and the Restless....any watchers out there? This whole Paris arch is such a snooze fest, they could have filmed it on a stage back in LA.

And then I heard this song in my Pumpkin as headed to the gas station to pump gas for >drum roll< $1.86. I have the nerve to think that's cheap--anyway---the song. Catchy and so 80's.--gotta love it--Cameo from 1986--....cue 'em and remember this is the day the Lord has made, and rejoice in it...Word UP!

Wednesday Whimsy as I head to Work...

Young and the Restless. The powers that be have aged Summer. She looked about three. Then David Chow--wow--they made him all Soprano in a matter of a few days...never cared for him....and Sabrina--I don't mind her--yet I didn't like she got with Victor in abou five minutes. Tired of Jeff and Gloria cat and mousin' about that face cream. Jill just needs to stop. Brad should grow up...and Amber needs to go a "I Will Not Whine" Class...Chloe--ugh. And Lilly...yea, sure...I FF thru them....And can Nikki please stop pushing the hair out of her eyes....?

And yes, I'll be watching today's episode when I get home!

Thursday aka Friday Eve...

Pretty much says it all, huh?

After I munch my salad, it'll be time for a cat to fight over my lap while I watch today's Young and the Restless episode. My questions: WHEN is somebody gonna say something about Victor's 'snip' job? And don't you just love Jack being all nasty again? Who cares about Chloe? I don't. Nor Lilly, nor Devon. Kinda feel for Amber, yet sick of her crying. Jill needs to just go on a vacation! Has Jill forget Brad was her pool boy? Oh, probably so, since we never knew Brad was a Navy Seal. Does JT have a job? Where's Michael's Dad? And can't Rex Sterling really be alive so Kay can have some added fun? Her living with Jill is such a downer. Also what about Nina and her son, Phillip--the boy Jill has called 'grandson' for so many years? Hmm. Stay tuned.

Anyway, after all that--and maybe a spot of ice cream-the minutes will tick until it finally IS Friday....

Does say it all.

My '99 Candy Apple Red Grand Am.....

....with a gazillion miles on it--translation:over 110k--including treks up I-35 to Iowa, and back to Dallas--needs a head gasket--translation: $$$$$

Yep--this worm may be the final one to spoil this apple---permanently.

Thank goodness I have today's Young & the Restless episode for a quick escape--I mean really, do the writers WANT us to forget about Victor's snip surgery--isn't that why Ashley stole his....wait--I'll stop now....

Nonetheless, say a prayer. I know He's got my back.

Stay tuned.

Monday...

*Yawn*

Work. Cats. Food. Litter Boxes. Daily Meds---for me. The neighborhood rooster crackles. Breakfast. Pet the cats. Bask in the sunshine. Set the DVR for the Young and the Restless--doesn't anybody remember that Victor was 'snipped' a few years ago---so how could he get Sabrina pregnant---UGH--Strawberries. Say good-bye to the cats. Car with 3.99 a gallon gas.

Rejoice in the day the Lord has made. With grace and mercy He let me rise on this day. For this day, I do for Him. Seek ye first.....plus a stop for a a good cup of coffee--mine is yuck.

Guilty Pleasures......

The Next New Food Network Star----Aaron McCargo Jr---is still my favorite entree!

Bag filled with strawberry mini fig newtons---130 calories. Just enough taste. Love em.

Watching VH1 Classics. Remembering how it USE to be.

Blue Bell (the best ice cream in the country--OK--maybe Texas) fave flavor Chocolate Covered Strawberry---I'd forget about Terrance Howard for a half gallon of this creamy taste of heaven.

Onion rings.

Mint Mocha Chip Frappucino (Light)

Watching "You've Got Mail" for the zillionth time and wishing Tom Hanks answered my mail.

Purr of a content cat.

Watching the Young and the Restless. Trying to remember if Victor got snipped years ago, because his soon to be bride is pregnant. Discussing all the happenings in Genoa City with the work chums.

Listening to my favorite Barry Manilow songs....cue "All the Time"

.....did I mention Blue Bell Ice cream....?
