This I know: The first day of vacation edition

Today I did little to nothing. It's my first day of that much awaited vacation. 

I lost 2 more pounds. Huzzah!

A bottle of Pinot Grigio is even sweeter when shared with a good friend. (No, it's not on Michi's Ladder but some exceptions are permitted in the Rule Book of Riss.)

Tulips are more lovely and fragrant when delivered with sincerity.

Sleeping in while the rain gently hits the rooftop is not to be taken for granted but wildly enjoyed.  The cats were silent and obliging which made the extra snooze time that much more gratifying.

Saving sweet voice mail messages is highly recommended.

A new bra was delivered and I think it is the one. Daily wear trials will put the final stamp of approval on the simple contraption of support.

I cannot recall a time in my recent adult life where I felt more relaxed and at ease within my own skin.

A gap of decades can be closed with just a smile and an embrace.

    HA! It took me a second, but now I understand "Bush Photo" -- for a flash moment I thought it was a very bizarre request.

    *snort* and yes, I know you better than that.

    I'm having trouble with the "Bush Photo" remark. Enlighten me, if you will....

Today makes the third day off work. Seriously, I need to find a way to make money doing this; screwing around online and in the process maybe hammer out a coherent thought that resonates with whomever stumbles up on my blog (either by accident or intention). This mornin g I had no inclination to do my laundry after Mancub left for school. No, what I fully planned was crawling back into bed for another hour or so. Then, once fully re-rested, I'd make a pot of coffee and chillax with the morning news. Oh, who am I fooling? I would have parked my carcass at this amusement box and goofed around on Plurk or Facebook with an intermittent perusal of one of the blogs I have listed over there ----------> Maybe I should always plan on being Miss Slackerass because, rather than going back to bed, I put on clothes, sorted laundry and hauled my tuchus to the local gas n'sip /launderette. Small town living is just so freakin ' peachy. For a Monday, the gas/laundry facility was

Inaugural video message from your Wildhair

Oh, nice still frame! I look like I'm about to heave or I'm doing my impersonation of Jabba the Hutt. This is an impromptu idea. I wanted to give my friends, family and readers something special for the end of the year. Let me know if this version of my randomosity is something appealing for the future. My random blathering takes on a whole new meaning when you witness it live ... or almost live. Happy New Year!

Doot, doot, doot lookin' out my front door

I am blessed. For several weeks my front right tire has been slowing losing air. I'll stop by the gas station and fill'er up with air and go about my business. I know neglecting such a thing isn't wise, but single mom on a very tight budget here. Still it's not an excuse for not taking care of my vehicle. In the past week or so I have had to fill the tire more frequently. I was certain it could wait until payday. Every dime I have is tied up with nagging utility bills, insurance, fuel, etc... My supposition about said tire was wrong. On Monday afternoon I went to my car, and as usual took a look at the tire. I hadn't driven it on Sunday. Sure enough, it required air. The filling station with the free air is only a couple of blocks away. With air gauge in hand, I removed the cap, turned on the air compressor and started filling ... and filling ... and filling. It was no use. I had overextended my luck. I don't know if the frigid temperature had anything to do wit
