More of the same...

I just returned from walking and I am hot, hot, hot. Certainly not in the sense of being "hot" looking. Phew! I came home to find Earl gone to some PGR thing. Glad he left me a note because he either didn't tell me he was going or he found out about it after I left the house. I didn't care because now I will be having most of the day to myself.


Saturday I volunteered with the lawn games at the Tryon Palace. It was fun, but being in the sun, chasing kids for 6 hours sure wore my butt out. The costume was a bit warmish too. Earl thought I looked like a round pilgrim. Very complimentary, don't you think?


Besides the round pilgrim comment Earl hugged me last night and said "fully packed". Somehow I don't think that was a compliment. Do you? Anyway, I have to agree. Now I just need to get some motivation to do something about it. Where is that going to come from? I have become so lazy and hungry with little discipline. Actually none.


One of our local schools has closed for a week because of 5 probable cases of the Swine Flu. There has been one confirmed case in New Bern. Any suspicions of some in your area?

I finally had my hair cut way too short. I am looking around for more hats to wear until it grows some. Geez, it is short.

  1. It would be nice to see a photo of you in your pilgrim attire.

    Also, I take my hugs however they come, and would have taken the comment as a compliment.

    Don't kiss any swines.

  2. I will have Earl take a picture of me in my pilgrim clothes Thursday. I am volunteering in the dry laundry and hopefully will be able to practice spinning.

    You are right. Hugs are great even when they come with backhanded compliments?

    I am getting ready to go walk off a few calories. Now how many calories does it take to lose a pound???? LOL Of course you know I know.

    Speaking of walking Gordon called last night and said he had gotten a pedometer. Yesterday he went to work at 5 a.m. and worked two shifts. I can't remember exactly how many steps he said he took. Maybe 33,000 some that was somewhere near 14 miles. He said his "dogs" really hurt, but had to be back at work by 5 this morning.
