I was also surprised by some developments (especially kitty being pregnant). Although as soon as she got ill it was apparent.

I was also extremely unhappy with the custody developments. It seemed a bit harsh (especially since she is the mother and the family is so prominent and rich). I'm not saying that they should have given sarah full custody. but at least shared seemed fair. Plus they didn't ask the kids. Okay i know this is just for temporary custody. but the whole thing just really bugged me and made me despise joe!

Good morning, all! I woke at 7:30 in a great mood.  By 8:15 the Macbeths have put me into a depression.  I just spent the past 30 minutes writing an email to my brother Randy, the Macbeths, and the esatate attorney telling the Macbeths, essentially, that I was tired of his snipes, and that once this property and estate were settled it was my hope that the only communication between us was  an occasional nod across a crowded room.

I do not want to return to Ohio in two weeks.

Off to Toyland, Fed Ex and God knows what other hell.

I also enjoy hearing about the fundraiser and I enjoyed hearing about "The Brain ... X" details. But we've had lurkers who read the details and we don't know who they are. I fear they are not nice people.

Good morning!

Cooler today and beautiful outside. No rain in the forecast for the week, so it looks like we're back where we were before with severe drought conditions.

I don't have any specific memories of Halloween as a kid. I do remember we could and did walk all over town with no fear at all about people wanting to hurt us. Boy, have times changed!

Went to some great costume parties as an adult, but all that seems so very long ago now. Now, I turn the lights out if I'm going to be home and watch a movie or something. Any candy I buy, I buy for myself.

I'll have DEXTER and COLD CASE to watch today, and hope to start RATATOUILLE if it comes in the mail as expected. If not, I'll surely watch the DVD IT'S THE GREAT PUMPKIN, CHARLIE BROWN, my first Peanuts special on the new TV. Since that special looks the best of the Peanuts specials that I have on DVD, I'm looking forward to seeing the colors really pop.

I also need to finish GIRL CRAZY which I'm only about 45 minutes into.

DR Jennifer,

What REALLY made me despise Joe was that he had been planning his "coup" for at least a month not indicating to Sarah at all his concerns. I found that exceedingly low of him.

Well, that was a very painless World Series as far as TV viewers were concerned. Nice that it won't interrupt BONES or HOUSE which I'm grateful for!

Good Morning!

I'm up, I'm up...  And since I slept in this morning, I still have yet to go to the gym.  However, that will occur shortly.  I knew I was going to sleep in, but I when I looked at the clock and saw that it said "10:30", well... I was thinking it was no later then 9:15, 9:20, so... I guess I needed the sleep.  And sleep is good.

As for the Topic of the Day...

I remember a few from my childhood: one particularly rainy one when we lived in Seattle - but we kept on trick-or-treating!; as well as a one from when we lived in Connecticut where my brothers and I managed to up and down our street twice(!).  Some of the parents/houses were on to us, but some people just wanted to get rid of their candy.  ;)

Of course, nowadays, I love seeing my nieces and nephews in their costumes.  Soooooo cute.

Heading down now to check the mail and do some simple household chores (cleaned the dining room this morning so that is out of the way). No lunch out today. Postponed until tomorrow.

Monday morning greetings!  I'm having a relaxing day off - errands and a medical appointment, then a movie date with DH Richard.  We're going to see Elizabeth:  The Golden Age.

TOD - One Halloween I remember from childhood, it was so cold in Detroit that my dad caught up with my mom (who was shepherding my friends and me on our rounds) and brought her her fur-lined snow boots.

For the first time in years, I'm having to come up with a costume.  Our new department managers are trying to build some comradery, so we're having costume day tomorrow.  Mine has to be something that I can just put over professional clothes, because of a luncheon meeting at the Dayton Racquet Club.  Part of DH Richard's clerical garb is a billowy white surplice with sleeves like wings, so I'm wearing that with a gold tinsel halo, and going as an angel.  Do you think I'll get the award for best re-purposing of household items?

Or "Least recognizable."   8)

Yes, I enjoy reading all about the Fund Raiser and other projects that MR BK and other DR's are involved with.  Makes me feel in the know and part of "show business."

But there are those pesky lurkers searching for who knows what.....
