Life is good.

I just wrote a lovely synopsis of why life is good. It was really something. And now it has been lost. I will not let this alter my good mood, especially while I am writing, "Life is good."

Must keep the faith!

The Best Gift Ever!

I am so excited about giving my new neighbors their Christmas present! It's been my signature gift for the past decade...it's the "Fork It Over"! Love, L-O-V-E, love it! It's a fork that extends like an old car antenna. You can reach across the dinner table with it and watch the show! People are funny about sharing food anyway and the looks they give as they see your fork attempt to pierce their food are priceless! An added bonus is in the giving...you get the look that says, "Oh a fork, isn't that something. Thank you Phoebe. A fork. I have 20 at home. I really needed one more. " Anyway, it's some good clean fun at Sunday dinner, weddings and Bar Mitzvahs! Let the good times roll, baby!

On the menu

This evening's dinner consists of last night's left overs from Fleming's. Three onion rings, four bites of medium rare prime rib (shared with Maggie who got two!) and four chocolate covered strawberries. Dinner overall tonight: fair. Dinner overall last night: good, but could have been so much more.

Pillow Party!

Woohoo! This past week I came home to a living room full of snow! (Which is odd given my location in Florida!) Three pillows were missing and Maggie, the subject of my profile picture, stood with a look of quiet fulfillment. Batting was hanging from her jowls. A pillow party had a occurred in my absence. Yes it's an easy cleanup but fingers crossed we don't end up at the vet with $500 surgery bill for gastrointestinal blockage! I have no idea what she found so alluring about those pillows but the balance of pillow decor have been placed out of reach for solo habitation by canine of this property.

The Summer of George?

I think not. More like the Summer of Knee. First Dad, next Hester, and now my embarassing oops one two on a pinecone. Lord help me...THAT will leave a mark! Really must get to beach to tan these beat up legs. Set goal for a minimum of twice this week. Dog Beach and Pass-A-Grille, with or without guests...but must go for sake of sanity.

Tomorrow: to gym for cardio and circuit. Dinner at Osaka? Return items to Lowe's and Home Depot. Look up order from KA to determine total and deposit checks. Call LH to pick up order. Same for MR. Bike dog around neighborhood if scraped knees allow. Set appt for pedicure.

This week: staffing work on Tuesday. Must smile, be positive and gracious. Gym on Wed and Fri. Wed SA birthday. Check with A's on lake?

By next milestone birthday: Cartwheel. Waterpark. Cruise. Remodel back bedroom to something functional. Win lottery or find sugar daddy. Install sprinkler system. Get life.
