Finally, A Day Off!

It's good to be home. I pretty much slept all day. Two and a half days on the road can be pretty tiring. Yesterday I went in to the store around 3 a.m. I started my drive home around 1 p.m. It was a long day. I am just glad to be home. I was able to see my brother Wednesday night. We had dinner here.

It was good to see him. It's always a treat. Between he and my sister, we get along better. Neither of them read this blog, so it's safe to say. Anyway, today was totally uneventful and it's almost a shame. It was a day wasted on sleep. Oh well, I guess you have to have them from time to time. I didn't wake up until nine, went out for breakfast, came home and watched my shows on DVR, took a nap around 2, got up around 5 and started dinner. We had turkey burgers with chipotle chili mayo and cream cheese corn. Not exactly a meal with working parts, but hey, it worked tonight.

Tomorrow I am working for a couple of hours, getting my work mail caught up and visiting two stores. I have a hair appointment to touch up the gray areas around 11 a.m. I think the girl that does my hair is afraid to cut it. Every time I mention a trim or a hair cut, she seems a little leery to do so. My hair is past my bra strap, so it's getting pretty long. It was down to my waist earlier this year and I had her cut about 8 inches, and then three months later I had her cut another 6 inches. My hair grows super fast. I need a touch up on color every 4 weeks. Sometimes I can stretch it to 5. This time I went almost 6 and my eyes are begging me for a trip in. It looks ghastly. I wish I lived close to Cheryl. I know she does great hair. She wouldn't be afraid to cut my hair.

I also need to do some grocery shopping. I have to pick up a few cleaning supplies and a week's worth of sack lunches for the kid. He is enjoying the teen day camp very much. Every day I pick him up he has an entourage of tween girls surrounding him. Here we go..... It turns out they like him because he is nice to them. Most teenage boys won't give them the time of day, but it turns out my kid is actually nice. He gives them a hard time here and there, but for the most part, he treats them like little sisters. They practically cling to him. I have a feeling this won't stop until he's older.

Well, enough rambling. I believe it is still raining out. We have had storms off and on all week. It is helping my vegetable garden. Good thing I have not had to water the plants for almost a week now. They are getting to be huge. I wonder when they will start producing. Hopefully soon. Have a great night.

Jayhawk Country - Here I Come!


I am heading for KU country today. I am needed to help out one of the stores up there for a grand opening. Woohoo.


I've been rather busy these past several days. Lots going on at work. I have not had a day off since last Sunday when I came back from vacation. Let's see, I am going on a ten day stretch with no day off until Saturday. Ugh. That's almost two weeks in a row. Lovely. What I do for this company!


Good thing I will have Saturday off and I only have to work four hours on Sunday. It will be a great weekend!


Well, I better get on the road. It's a two and a half hour drive to Lawrence, so I better get on my way. Have a great week and I will be back on Saturday.

I am getting ready to head out the door. Not working all day, so that should be a plus. We had storms last night so my vegetable plants should have received plenty of water. I already have blooms on my zucchini and tomato plants. I haven't seen much from my pepper plants or baby eggplant yet, but hopefully I will soon.

Have a Super Sunday!

Keeping it short and sweet tonight. Will post more tomorrow.

Long Day

I am so tired this evening. Sometimes when returning home my body just wants to sleep and I end up taking a nap. That's what happened tonight. Now I will be up until late.

I have to work in Hutch tomorrow. I tried getting a hotel room, but the whole city is booked. Can you believe that? Oh well, good thing it's only a 40 minute drive.

Today was pretty uneventful. I went to the store this morning to grab lunch for the kid, dropped the kid off at camp, drove to Hutchinson, spent most of the day in two different stores, drove back to Wichita, picked up the kid, headed home and made dinner (pulled pork) and fell asleep watching House Hunters. It's such a dramatic life I have..... sigh. Now I am having the kid kill a spider. Yucky!!!!

Hopefully you have had a better day than I have. I am off to read your blogs now.
