Mornin', all. Workin' on the 2nd cuppa coffee right now, and just canNOT get self motivated.

Rain is a possibility, and we could use it. Wish the humidity would just get outta here, though. How is it in your area, 'Manda? Clean-up getting somewhere?

Oh, and Cassio is due back, eh?

Re: Sunday, July 20th, 2008

Today is the first of 4 work days in a row, then Thursday we're heading back to WI for my sister's wedding. Things are still a mess here in Cedar Rapids- but things are slowly getting back to normal....

I often ask 'define normal', but I take it that 'close enough' would be terrific, eh?

Re: Sunday, July 20th, 2008

Good morning, ya'll! Cat, you asked a good question... what is normal? Normal is all about perspective. Just as pain is truest from the individual's perspective. Wow, where did that come from?

Lot of stuff on my mind. I hate moving but whether we move in a couple of months, or this JAN it is inevitable. BTW, my son called me yesterday to let me know his wife's sonogram confirmed that Cooper Lee [a boy] is in the oven. OMG, I'm going to have a grandson. WOW!

I've had my Vette for sale for a few weeks but very little response. I've compared my asking price to other similar Vettes for sale in my area and feel my asking price is very reasonable. I'd hate to travel from WA to TX with three cars.

Lot of stuff on mind...

Incoming mortar attack, I guess! 1st, you're getting rid of the 'Vette?! Pardon me; gotta pick myself off the floor here.

Then, gotta take a pain killer myself. Feels like someone rearranged my GI tract (which did happen a few days ago). So, I can hear ya on the pain bit.

Geez, son couldn't wait, could he? Is he permenantly stationed, or is he gonna be 'all over'?

My son is assigned to 1st Cav at FT Hood. Where they go, he goes. They are slated to deploy to Iraq next March 2009. That is always subject to change.

Selling the Vette, then will sell our 2004 Honda Civic. My wife will keep her 2004 Honda S2000. I want to buy a 2008 MIniCooper S. Already know the exact one, which I've selected online. You have to order one online at the dealerhip, which takes about three months for delivery. Now that we are moving in a couple of months I'm glad I waited. I will order one in San Antonio. I'd plan on individual sale, rather than trading in my Vette. However, so far very little interest?

Re: Sunday, July 20th, 2008

I am back now. We got home about 11 this morning and got the car unloaded and got mostly unpacked (didn't sleep too good last night I planned on a nap today but it didn't happen) we went to pick up the dog from mom and stayed at her house longer then I planned.
I put about 2700 miles on the car...my counter says I used about 94 gals of gas the least being in the $3.87 range in KY and GA and the most over 4.25 in Palm Beach.
Have a hair appt for 1 tomorrow afternoon, need a pedicure have a dinner mystery shop tomorrow night (only gained about 3# so not as bad as it could have been being I ate way too much every night). I go back to work Thursday for a long strech...need to get things in order so I can start those travel positions in Oct.
