The Smokies
They are breathtaking……even in crappy weather

Meet the Bibbs
Bobby, Betty, Buddy and Bunny………who just happened to cross the path of my camera whilst on our trip this week *grin*
Now, I ask you…….just who in this family is responsible for this? Not one of them seemed to be the least bit dismayed about looking like a bunch of bumpkins. And these kids are not so very young; Buddy appears to be about 16 and Bunny, I’m sure is college-age………the rebellious ages, you know. And yet, they went along with this?????
Dear Children,
If I ever, EVER ask you to do something this stupid……….just lock me in a padded room and throw away the key.
Love,
Mom
P.S. Lord, I ‘pologize…….
Oh, What Fun It Is…
…..to stand for hours, hunched over the stove, sweating like a whore in church……..
See what you missed this year, kids?
Merry Christmas to Me…..
From my son Joey, my daughter-in-love Monica and my son John:
Joey and Monica gave the camera and John gave the accessories kit.
Thank you so much, kids! I L O V E this camera……….but not near as much as I L O V E Y O U!!!
Counter-Productive?
I’m a counter; I count everything from steps to and from the toilet to the number of handfuls of laundry it takes to load the dryer to the number of slices to cut up a potatoe to how many crackers I crumble in my soup.
It’s a curse, I tell ya! There’s this little calculator living in my brain always counting……..everything.
In my professional life this was a blessing; but, damnit, I’m retired now and I don’t want to count anymore!
MAKE IT STOP!
A Feeling of Recumbency
I took the plunge………yesterday The Prof and I went to Dunham’s Sports and bought a recumbent exercise bike.
Grant you, I’ve tried more than my share of exercise equipment (I really need to lose about 50 pounds); in our basement you’ll find the Gazelle as well as the Ab Lounger, neither of which I spent any time on.
But THIS time I’m determined. I hear you saying “yea, yea, yea…….why should we believe you this time?!” Well, I’ll tell you why…….because The Prof has started working out and he’s shamed me into it!
So, watch out world……..a sleeker, slimmer and healthier Kit is headed your way!
Foofed-up Blog!
Lookie what my Joey did for me!! He Chrismas-foofed my blog!
Thank you, son!
