A photo of my hard work yesterday....the front yard...




Well, that photo is too dark to see the gardening that was done. But you can see how tiny my home environment is!

Backyard. As you can see Freddy feels that he should be in every photo.

There is still much yard work to be done, and once spring really kicks in it will all look much nicer (everything still has that winter look to it). But it all looks much better then it did when I began Saturday morning!

Green grass and daffodils a "winter look" does not make!

I guess all the Wussburgers are still passed out (or nursing hangovers) -- pretty quiet around here this morning...

HA!  I stripped the wall paper off one wall in the bathroom, scrubbed the bathroom and kitchen floors on my hands and knees (as my mother says "It's the only way to really get them clean") ran the vacuum throughout the rest of the house, went to the grocery store, peeled apples and made an apple crisp that is now baking in the oven, threw out a bunch of garbage and.... oh yeah, right after I signed off earlier I made a homemade corned beef hash for lunch...passed out....yeah right  ;)

And I finally bought my office chair at Office  Max this afternoon.  Brown leather, terrific back support and nicely contours to my tush.  Small problem where I couldn't fit the box in my car, but I simply took it out of the box and loaded it in (the store had no problem with me leaving the box in the vestibule.)  The chair was a snap to put together and I'm sitting on it as I type.



Nice chair!  I'm going to be looking for one of those soon. We don't have an office max  :(

DR MBarnum, I think your home environment looks great. Love the back yard and it looks like Freddy and Bosco do too.  Green grass ?? What's that?

British Airways Places Dead Passenger in First Class Seat
Sunday , March 18, 2007
 
A British Airways passenger travelling first class has described how he woke up on a long-haul flight to find that cabin crew had placed a corpse in his row.

The body of a woman in her seventies, who died after the plane left Delhi for Heathrow, was carried by cabin staff from economy to first class, where there was more space. Her body was propped up in a seat, using pillows.

Good Evening!

Well, the A Train is running "local" this weekend due to track work (there are no C Trains this weekend which normally run "local").  So, after quite a long wait at 23rd Street for a train uptown, an A Train pulled up, quite packed with people, and I packed myself in with them.  34th... 42nd... 50th... 59th...

"Due to the fact this train is running late, this A Train will be making express stops past 59th Street/Columbus Circle.  The next stop will be 125th Street, followed by 145th Street.  If you require local service, please wait for the next A Train."

-At that point I cheered.  Silently.  But I cheered.  ;)  -And I was home just three stops later.

...And now that I'm home, and that my work week has ended, all I really want to do is go to sleep... But, there's "Grease:YTOTIW" to watch tonight, and we have some friends coming over for pizza and "TAR".  So...

I also want a beer.  Or two.  So... But since I'm working tomorrow (not on All About Us)...  -Oh, and I also just picked up a nice one-day gig playing for a reading of Tom Jones!  -When it rains, it pours.

LAURA'S DREAM HOUSE:


The Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe

Quote
From Australian artist Maureen Williams comes this salute to one of the most popular Mother Goose Rhymes ever written, The Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe.
"There was an old woman who lived in a shoe, she had so many children she didn't know what to do"

This wonderful creation features not one, not two but three different eggs!  The artist has used an emu egg for the toe and foot part of the boot and an ostrich egg for the heel.  The ostrich egg has two floors, all areas are lit with 9 volt lights (with plug-in adaptor). The front of the boot opens to reveal the nursery with a quail egg cradle. The pitched roof features wooden shingles.  The detailing is fantastic.   It even has eyelets for the laces!  Note the flower beds with the kitten playing in the front yard.  The boot has a bit of a heel, so the artist has even provided our little old lady with steps leading to the front door - note the pots at the foot of the stairs.

Thank you Mucho, oh Being with Lovely Brain Tissues!  I kind of figured that she was the "life coach" one, but I wasn't sure.  ..... and I don't remember getting the "Bus and Truck" CD with my copy of Writer's Block ??  :-[

DS Rob and I made an excursion to Kenwood Towne Centre in Cincinnati today to trade in my blue iPod mini on a racy new red 8gig iPod Nano.  It's syncing with my iTunes as I type.

Dear DR Hunk....(or MB) - What type is that lovely BIG tree in your backyard?  I wish I could see the upper part of it (but it may not be leafed out yet up in your part of the world)..
