Im sure this took me so long to type there are other things that were posted, but its hard to get anything done that takes more than five consecutive minutes.
Since Mrs E just left with Charli, I am taking all three kids to watch the hot dog eating contest. One of my co-workers is trying to qualify for the July 4th contest on Coney Island.
Then wander over into GameStop to trade in a few things to get some new games.
Then buy lunch. But just for me. The kids better start behaving if they want to eat.
Then head back home, let them play outside while I fiddle around with the boat and try to make some progress with it.
Hope everyone has a great day!!!
Charli has been fixed and LOVES her new lamp shade.
Last night I wound up with what felt like a wooden spike in my toe. I got the splinter out at about 2am this morning.

OMG, I would have grabbed an air horn or something!!! PAYBACK!!!!
Bliss had her first customer

I cant wait till I can get my boat on the lake....
You said track, and I thought you were taking the 'Stang to race! You need to look into a "run what you brung" kinda of race. You may need a helmet in that car though. 13.999 ET or quicker needs a helmet, and Im betting that yours does a 1/4 mile faster than that.That just goes to show you how much we are all used to tracking our vaping supplies.
We are going to the drag strip tonight. I thought we were supposed to go last night, turns out it is tonight. I was so disappointed that we weren't going out last night, Lenny took me out last night anyway as a consolation prize.
Im giving up on cliff notes... I cant keep track of everything, so I will just stick to whats happening in my little world. Charli just got fixed yesterday, thats why the cone on her head. Mrs E is taking her to the vet right now. Shes got an upset tummy and hasnt eaten since Thursday.

I dont thing so... We're worried too...
Morning!
Welcome back Stretchy!!! Hugs for you.
James, poor puppy - our lab had a cone last year and she wouldn't eat or drink with it on and could not get into her kennel. Ouch on the splinter
Paul, would love to see what you have for sale!
V - I don't like unexpected company either.
Sallie, sorry you have to work today
Bliss, so happy for your first day!
Hi to everyone else - sorry if I missed anything else.
Interesting phone call yesterday. The room at the resort we booked in Reno was horrible and we checked out after one night. I wrote a review on Trip Advisor - I have a screen name but nothing in my profile, no email, no name, etc. The phone call was from the director of the resort. He wanted the review removed, so he refunded us for the night we stayed. How he got our name is a mystery, but I removed the the review after he refunded us our money....I agreed to do that. Today I got an email from him with the copy of the refund, plus he said if we were to ever go back he would put us up free in their spa tower! (Not going back to Reno)
If my hubby ever gets out of bed, we are off to the Farmers market, fresh peaches and nectarines are in!!! Nothing better than right off the tree. Then a few errands and back home before the 108* hits. I need a Foreman grill, I gave mine to my daughter before we moved and I miss it!
One more week and my baby boy will be home! I asked him yesterday if he missed CA - he said NO.

We are taking the roush, but not to race. My husband raced the GT a few times. He might even race the roush. Up to him. We have a helmet, and yes we would definitely do better than 13.999 in the 1/4 mile. My son's car does better than 9. That is the one I want to drive.

Hey SP... nice to see you, and I am so sorry to hear of your loss. ((((Stretchy))))

Not a bad day today. My coworker ended up eating 10 Nathan's hot dogs in 10 minutes. The winner downed 24. Got my kids in the "Neat Eating" Contest before the main event. Any kid under 12 could go up there, but one hand behind their back, and the cleanest eater afterwards won. Of course, when everyone had finished, everyone got a prize, but it was still a cool thing to do for the kids.
On the way home we stopped by Game Stop and traded in all of the old games that no one played. I now have $81.xx on my account, $39.xx on a reloadable gift card, and $25 on a regular gift card. But with three kids, I wasnt about to hand around too long to see what I wanted to get. That reminds me, if anyone wants a PSP-3000 let me know. They wouldnt take it because I had no wall charger, but I do have a USB charger and a $30 A/V cable that lets you play the thing on your TV. Its barely been used, bought new for Christmas 2010, in great shape. Just PM me. (FV, sorry for hocking on your thread. I will delete/ if I need to.)
Got home and let the kids play in the yard while I messed with the boat. I think I finally got all of the cushions and trim pieces in the right places. I hooked up a battery to check the lights and accessories. But the only key I have wont fit in the ignition. It works in the glove box just fine. So, I still dont know if anything works or not. I may end up just having to replace the ignition switch. Fun stuff.
Kids are in bed. Now Im trying to decide if I want beer or ice cream....

Too late. Ive already finished the first beer and have started on my trough of ice cream. With another beer ready to be opened.I'm back!

He's proud. 
I lived through shopping and so did everyone in the store. So he's proud of me too. I did give the evil eye to a few people, and did mention that I was aging once while waiting, but other than that I behaved.

If thats all you did, you owe yourself a beer and icecream too!!!
Nah, he's pretty easy going. He just rolled his eyes (both) at me.
Pizza and Pepsi tonight. I didn't cook. But my chickens now have a section of the back yard all fenced in. No more poop deck at the hut.

That reminds me. Mrs E came home from work last night still giggling. One of her coworkers asked her "Did you just roll your eye at me?!?" At least Im not the only one who's seen it!
You would never make it in the navy without a poop deck.

I still have to be out there when Victor is out. He still wants chicken for dinner. And I don't think 3' high chicken wire is going to stop the dog that jumps past peoples faces.....
LOL, no poop deck! Not many things are grosser than going outside for your morning coffee and stepping in chicken poop. Yuck.
