1. What are you wearing right now? Black dress pants, tan sweater, my fave argyle socks (at work). What have you eaten today or plan on eating? Plan on salad for lunch and cauliflower pasta for dinner. 3. What is your weather like today? Ugg! (Boston) Kinda overcast - AGAIN. It's *slightly* better today, but still no where near what June 25th SHOULD be! 4. Do you have anything special or important planned for this week, and if so, what? Trying to get some office work done before I'm off next week for my husband's shoulder surgery. 5. If you could sit and gossip with one famous person, either from past or present, who would it be? I'm not talking about Big Brains, I'm talking about someone you think would be chatty, gossipy and fun. :) Well, it would have to be someone from the past, I think, as I don't much care about today's gossip. I'd love to have met Isabella Stewart Gardner. She had a real reputation for eccentricity. Plus, I'd ask her what she thought about the theft. :) Where do you prefer to get your news from? Internet and talk radio. 7. For you women, do you wear a bra when you're home, knowing no one is coming over? hee Sheesharee - ditto! I am almost ALWAYS wearing one. Don't know why, it's just what I've always done. 8. What plant in your garden is thriving this summer? My son's green beans he planted in school and brought home. Seriously, he doesn't get his green thumb from his Mama, that's for sure. 9. Where did you get the best hamburger you've ever eaten from a restaurant or a fast food place? Do not include homemade burgers. From a little restaurant in NH that I cannot remember the name of, when we were on vacation. 10. What do you see out the window closest to where you're sitting? The Mystic River (from my office).

Napping weather! LOL. Kids went back to school today, so the house was peaceful. We've had 2 inches of rain the last 24 hours, a very even rain, not too hard, but constant. So, with the quiet empty house, dark skies, the sound of the rain on the roof/windows, and in the background my dryer running... I've had a hard time keeping my eyes open today! For a while I just gave in and let myself recover from the last two weeks of chaos. ;o)

Here in my part of Ohio, it's currently 28° with about 2 inches of the white stuff on the ground. Only supposed to get up to low 40s, but the sun is out. That's always a plus for me. Shirley

Sunny and coolish (68) in Long island. Supposed to stay that way thru the weekend. I'm so glad, my town has a street fair with all that great carnival food-curly fries, sausage and pappers, yum!
