*A NEW ADDITION TO THE FAMILY*

*Awh don’t you just love that smell of fall in the air…wishing I could bottle it up and sell it.*

We Squeaked through Target with BB only spending $48.52. This is an honest to God record. Me throwing things into a big very empty very jumbo cart things like Ponds exfoliating clean sweep towelettes-I swear these things are the best since slice bread I’ll tell ya. I added Neutrogena Healthy Skin ANTI-WRINKLE CREAM I’m 41 years old now, I should have started using this kind of cream 20 years ago. I’ll just have to treat my skin twice as nice now. Target has recently introduced a wine section- how novel-really. The low rack has the $5.00 wines, middle has the $7-10 wines and shockingly the top rack has $12 wines. I settle for the middle shelf because I’m in the middle kind of a girl Ruffino Chianti a 2004. Just had my first sip, not bad for $7.25 ask me how it is after you finish reading this entry.

BB always heads into a different section of Target, he knows I’m so indecisive about making purchasing and he can’t handle my brewing over what to buy. I was good tonight though because I had Pork in the oven. I knew there would be no dilly -dallying around or the house would burn down. What’s cooking you might wonder, country styled pork boiled in a big costco pot for 1 hour and then tossed into a dish smothered with yellow onion–Now, I would much prefer the Walla Walla sweeeeeeeeet onions which are so much better but they are so gone now until next year. I Topped it off with jar of brown sugar bbq sauce and sprinkled a cup of brown sugar over the meat for a very sweet good meause, oven temp is 350 for one hour. BB bought an assortment of Halloween decorations for the cabin. He really gets into the holidays I don’t really care about them it’s all materialistic-the holidays aren’t like they used to be.

Ok, that was some fast typing taking a sipping break.

So BB is now sitting in his fancy leather recliner relaxing with his laptop in his lap. Me glancing over at my nice leather recliner that I have never sat in. What a waste of money. Reminds me of my mom and dad and their matching recliners….*sigh* I’m refusing to grow old. I mentioned to a caregiver at work the other day that BB “drives like Chitty Chitty Bang Bang” She looked at me as if I was dipping into my patients drugs. “Chitty chitty bang bang” I repeat again and again. Blank stare. She had no clue to what I was taking about. Just another sign of me getting old.

Insert growing old tears right here________________better start smearing the wrinkle cream all over me.

BB is still mesmerized by the INFAMOUS CRAIGS LIST I was hoping he would soon be tired of it but I’m afraid that Craig is his new best friend.

He is buying CHIT now

His first purchase was deer hides two of them. I have since learned there is a new breed of people who sell chit on this craigs list. It’s a little scary if you know what I mean. We always meet in a public place and trade our money for the goods. Last Friday, BB really splurged and agreed to spend $650.00 for ..This ..Well I’ll let you see the pictures at the end of this entry…

no peaking “K”

We were a little daring this time around and agreed to meet at a Sureguard Storage building in Woodinville. I’m thinking we’ll most likely be abducted and tied with duck tape and thrown into a storage unit. My mind always thinks of the worst case scenario. Sure enough a mini van pulls up, I see a middle age couple older than us, They motion us to follow them to their storage unit. I couldn’t help but read their bumper sticker on the car it said BUSH IS A LYING SACK OF SHIT. I wenched out in horror, BB warned me to keep my mouth shut and don’t let them know I’m a republican for fear of being tied up and bound by duck tape by liberal hippies from Woodinville.

I kept quiet and stayed in the car

Just finished watching season one of SIX FEET UNDER My oldest sister wanted me to watch this show. She just didn’t get it that I don’t want to watch a show about a funeral palor. I have enough of death and dying at work to contend with. She would go on to say that I reminded her of CLAIRE a star of the show. She would go on and on about how her and I were so much alike. So I checked the dvds out on NETFLIX and started to watch them, I was just going to watch one episode so I could see this Claire girl. Well, It’s obvious to me my older sister doesn’t know me very well. I’m nothing like Claire…ok maybe in high school but not now!!

I’m absolutely hooked on this show–just got season two disc one. I love Love LOVE this show. HBO rocks! Oh, and I just signed up for season one of Lost and Deperate Housewives. Looks like I will be busy catching up– now I just need to get a tivo and I will be set for the winter.

BTW: Chianti is very good it will go well with Big Brother

Our new addition to the family hasn’t been named and this is where you can help. Please think of a cool name for him —oh and Bullwinkle is a no go.
