1) I had finally got a hair cut (^_^) 2) Machine knitted hats for charity (^_^) 3) Set up another 3-tiers book shelf and had organized all the knitting books that have been laying everywhere around the house (^_^) "To do" list for the next few days and weeks: 1) Routine back up the laptop 2) Clean the dining room to make room for knitting machines. 3) Clean out stored stuffs from the 3 bedrooms. I really need to do a garage sale. Sigh... I say this every year and haven't gotten to it.

Whidbeykathy, although I never had to do this, there was a period of time where - if called upon, I would have had to also because it would have been a necessary thing. I thank God it never came to that. I hope you will let it go and not accept any blame of your necessary action, this was not a wrong doing on your part, you should not accept or give yourself blame. All that will ever accomplish is a deflection from the person who behaved badly enough that this became a necessary action which caused you a lot of unhappiness - keep the focus where it belongs - on the wrong doer. But not for that person, you would not be going through this grief. You did the RIGHT thing and are to be commended for doing the right thing despite the hardship this caused to you. Never allow youself or anyone else to tell you differently. Keep the focus where it belongs.

I was in Smart&Final (name really fits this story) the other day. The lady in front of me was buying a large quantity of cased soda. She had one each of 4 kinds and 6-8 cokes. She put the 4 different kinds and one of the coke ones on the conveyer belt. The checker insisted she had to ring each of the cokes separately. Another checker opened a new line. Since I was next I went over to him where a man from the end of our line tried to cut me off. Then the same man proceeded to invade my space with his cart. I finally had enough an hip checked the cart back into him. HARD. I did this without looking. Heard a loud OW. Again without looking back I said "whoops didn't see ya". Checker grinned. My item rang up higher than it should have. I figured there would be another snag but checker simply asked me the price and punched it in. As I left the lady with soda was still being rung up by the dumb checker she got. My smart checker would probably make rude guy behind me jump through hoops. LOL

So here's one not involving me but husband and grandson. GS was over this afternoon helping clear show. Tonight husband and I were at our large mega grocery store . I was somewhere else in the store. Kid walks by and husband looks at him and neither says anything. Both thought it was their relative but then husband said he didn't say anything. And grandson said I was sure it was him but he didn't speak so... Both, of course, we're masked up to their eyes. I told my daughter it was dumb and dumber...

Nothing. I'm a caregiver, worn out and weary, need I say more... Sitting here eating a Taco Bell tostada I don't really want, wishing I had the energy to shower and shampoo and a facial and... Sigh...

In went to the Phoenix Women's Expo with a good friend. We had free massages, free hair cuts and make up, lots and lots of venders, small vodka drinks and got to meet Nancy Grace. It was a great day!

I took a class that is necessary for my job. Now, I am going to spend a little me time working on my Halloween costume accessories, and then a nice cup of tea while I read before going to bed.

To celebrate the gorgeous day and cool night, I built a fire in our firepit using some of our seasoned (two years) oak and hickory plus some applewood we get (for free) from a nearby orchard after the winter pruning. I'll bet that you've never smelled such a fragrant fire....plus, the applewood burns with a bright blue flame.

Last night, we sat around the firepit for a long happy hour, then roasted hot dogs for supper! I whipped up a batch of creamy slaw and opened up a bag of kettle chips.

Hadn't had such a fun, spontaneous evening in a long time. We sat outside for hours.

Arranged for a clock repair person to clean and repair our grandfather clock. Been putting that off for a couple years. I took a short 100 mile motorcycle ride; first one all year.

Today, I will get on my bicycle and ride 10-15 miles. May run too, if it gets a bit warmer.

Yesterday DS and I went to an event at the basketball coliseum at Iowa State. It was free, they expected 1,000 fans and over 8,000 showed up. They introduced the men's and women's teams and coaches and then they had a 3 point contest and a dunking contest. The men's coach announced that he plans for the team to win the NCAA championship this year. The crowd went wild. It looked like everyone there was having the time of their life.

Saturday, I went to the soccer field and watched (and yelled) as my GD won the Governor's Cup Tournament by shutting out all of the other teams.

Sunday, I went to church (which always makes me feel better) and this afternoon prepared some meals for a family. Makes me feel good to help those in need.

Slept in on Monday, after driving over a hundred miles one way, on each of Friday and Saturday to a bunch of seminars and displays relative to investments, and going to church Sunday, where I announced at social hour of a 2-hour nation-wide phone-in from 4 - 6 p.m. that afternoon about assisted suicide, which had been spoken of in the service.

Teased some ladies playing dominoes here at the library today, saying that it didn't look like much fun - that the tiles all looked alike. And the story that I told here a while ago about not stripping the husks off of ears of corn in the store. I find that I've told that story a number of times, recently: usually results in a smile or two (including one on my face).

Laughter is the best medicine.
