D D Trying to get

a jump start on tomorrow.
Not that I have any plans.......just because.  : 0 )
  As I entertained the thought of showering and getting ready for the Outback, I decided to dress UP.
Dressing UP is wearing more than the usual jeans and top.
I'm one of those that wears the same damned things and saves the nicer things for..........??? beats moi.
A friend gave me a gift certificate last year for my birthday. Was planning on going to kid#6's in Sarasota,Fl at that time ( March ) and got 2 lovely summer outfits.
Did wear them while I was there, but since then..... maybe once.
Figured they ( meaning the family ) will not have me laid out in one of these as they are short sleeved ...... funeral directors always want long sleeved clothing. : 0 (
I secretly think they want to save on make up that way.
Asked myself, why not enjoy wearing these all summer long when we eat out on Sunday.
Much too pretty to hide away in a closet.  Oh la la,,,,they have embroidered flowers and sequins on both the top and bottoms.
Self said:   Fool, jump on it....time is at a premium at your age.   I shit you not!
     Can you believe this.....I have always saved things for another day. One would think I would have learned my lesson a long time ago. Way back over 50 years ago when the first ex took off with every gift he had ever bought me when he was in Japan. China still packed in crates, crystal, knick nacks, the whole nine yards.
With 5 babies under the age of five how could I display and use it?
Found an empty attic one day.  His second wife enjoyed them.  They had no kids. She ended up divorcing him and he died in his house alone as I told him that was the way he would go some day.
Knocked her around like he did moi.....you really can't teach an old dog new tricks.
 Sorry mom that I didn't believe you sooner.
   Dinner was great.....definately wasn't a diet platter. Coconut shrimp appetizer,a salad, the meal and a Strawberry Peach Sangria.  Burp!
Filled out an Outback survey online and got the appetizer free with that. Was given Outback  scratch cards last week by the manager and got a $5 off my meal with that. Dinner bill came to $21.42 with that $15 taken off.  Yessssssssssssssssss do I know how to save a penny....LOL  Plus the tip of course.
Have had more drinks in the past few months than I've had in 5 or more years.
I shit you not!
No, it isn't if you can't beat them at their game, join em.
Not going to worry about becoming an alcoholic at my age.
Should I ?
   Jill came home from work around 5 p.m.   Got drenched in a few of the downpours around this area.
Showered, made herself a rum and coke ( pssssssssssssst ! She now keeps a bottle of rum in her room ) dressed up, did her makeup and hair and left.
Asked her what her plans were as it was early.  " No plans".... was my answer.
"Probably will meet up with George."
She has told me he is always singing Georgia On My Mind.
Is that an OMEN??? Her dad was engaged to a Georgia George before he married moi.  I shit you not!
He definately isn't what her taste has been in men......looks are not everything, I know. 
He is also older than the previous men. 57 I think. Not that that is a problem...not at all.
Did say to her the other day she shouldn't tie herself down to one person.
Will she listen....  do your kids ever listen to you no matter how old they are. sigh!
Some of her so called friends were calling her while she was getting ready to go out. Miss you, when you coming out, come to my place for a drink.....you know the kind. : 0 (    loosers! 
Know that DeeDee and Tom are....this Karen I don't believe I've met.
    Jill just came home....almost 10 p.m. She made herself a drink.The friend and her are sitting outside....
He's a beer drinker....would be fair to guess he has a beer with him.
Hubby was a beer drinker. Since the brain bleeds 6 years or so ago he hasn't touched a beer or any hard liquor. Water is his drink of choice now.  
Not faulting anyone that has a few drinks now and then.  That would be like calling the kettle black...wouldn't it.   Made myself a tall Strawberry Peach Apricot Brandy ???? before I sat at the computer.
Loosened my fingers up.....wouldn't you agree ?????????? 
You know who that's for... if you are reading this post....ROFLMFAO my friend.
Chow!
Be back to post this in the morning. G'Nite.

It's Monday
   Kid#5 Cheryl called minutes ago to let me know she had another baby robin.
This one isn't as young as the first.  Her son Danny was telling a friend about her raising the baby robin and they knew someone who had one. Everytime they placed it back in it's nest, it would hop right out again.
They called her last night at 9 to ask if she would take it.
She has Sucker written on her forehead, just like her mom has. LOL
Oh ...... if I haven't mentioned it before ..........she could talk the ears off  of a deaf person. LOL
I shit you not!
That's All Folks!
