4 Day Weekends

... can be a GREAT thing or an incredibly long battle of wills with one's family. Thankfully?!? Mine is almost over and two of three men in my life will be back doing what they do second best... getting an education and earning a paycheck. :D (first often times being annoying me) Mail delivery goes back to its haphazard, ne'er do well existence as well tomorrow. Why on earth the USPS is still in business the way it runs, who knows! Throw in the fun of military postal options and it gets really really hairy.

Today is to be spent retail therapy-ing myself on the economy and hopefully getting some cleaning done around the house. I host a group coffee in three weeks and I look like a tornado victim. Yes, this is what children (and a bad maid) do for you. WARNING: like a clean home? Just skip the part of marriage where you have kids, buy a home (or rent) and accumulate crap to decorate it with. Saves you a great deal of the heartburn associated with cleaning. You might wonder why the maid is still working for us... it's me. I can't or won't be fired. I'm here for life : )

That's it for the moment... back to your regularly scheduled internet madness.
