Well now....

The late night clothes washing has commenced...

Wake up call expected @ 7 so I can have Mom a couple of counties down the road for an eye doc appointment....Tis the life....At 7 i may not be the most cheerful but past experience indicates that one day I'll wish I could just do it once more...

The dash is back in the Ranger and all remains good...Should all go good at the doc's I'll head on down too the Tractor Supply and purchase a tool box for the Ranger tomorrow...

**edit**

Those clothes still aren't dry!!! Last week the toolbox was 279....on sale now for 223....Just found out that little piece of info....Karma....is what it is...FB is full of Phil Robertson...Hey now I know all about free speech and stuff and old boy has every right...However ala Paula Deen....if you cashing in best too watch whatcha` say there Holmes...might be used against you...

I doubt Phil really cares. I'm sure he's entirely willing to walk away from A&E if they try to gag him. I suspect the rest of the family feels the same way. I don't know what their contractual obligations are with A&E, but I'm sure plenty of other networks would be thrilled to have them.

Morning all, gonna be a warmer day here too :)

I said my piece about Papa Duck on FB too Dee, but I took a little heat for my comment. I can't and won't defend his beliefs, but unless he made derogatory and vulgar remarks in that mag interview, I feel he's entitled to his freedom of speech. He's not entitled to everyone's agreement, or to be paid to spread hate.

Errands are waiting...!

Ouch, hope he's ok Fran. He'll sure feel it tomorrow :(

Well, now that I've had time to read more about Papa Duck's remarks (rather than the watered down version I saw last night) I'm pretty offended. He's welcome to his beliefs, but I'm glad A&E took a stand against his remarks.

<--- is eating crow for lunch, I like to own it when I'm wrong!

(((Fran))) So sorry to hear about Wayne's Dad. Will keep Wayne in my thoughts. The situation reminded me of my Dad in the fact that he never woke up once at the hospital. That stinks. You just "hope" they can hear you.

Tell hubby I hope he heals quickly, ouch!

Bov, I have not read the actual Phil Robertson comments, but what the radio said I didn't much care for. I agree with you whole heartedly.

Little known fact but I was raised by a gay woman, my favorite Aunt (that I miss terribly and was like a second Mom) was gay, and my favorite Uncle is too. I've met no better people in this world than them, they'd give the shirts off their backs to anyone who needed it. Am I gay? Absolutely not a single bone in my body, but Love is Love in my book and equal rights to all. ;)

Time to go start dinner....hugs to all!!!

I worry about Katie falling too Fran. The front and back steps both have a (fairly useless) tiny peaked overhang, and as the snow and ice melt, it pours down on the stoop, steps and walk. No matter how much salt melt you toss on it, it's been a solid sheet of ice up until today. We got quite a bit of melt today, by the time the rain gets done I expect we'll have the basement water problems.

Give your hubby hugs, I hope he's not in pain too long.

Fran so sorry to hear about Wayne's Dad...A Son losing a Dad is the ultimate smack down....Hoping your Husband doesn't have something really messed up...Hope he feels better really soon...

Bov I find that duck show rather silly...I've not read any of Robertson's comments nor will I...He ain't no icon too this Southern Boy...I'm sure the FB friends are up in arms...

The only box my local TS had was covered in dust...I did see a few minor scratches and was given an additional 10% off...I got it and brought it home...After washing off the dust I found much more shipping damage than I'd bargined for...The next TS down the road has another in better shape and is willing to trade...I didn't have the box with me when I rode over there...Light scratches on this one as well and the guy there seemed too think his manager would give me more than an additional 10%...Thinking about returning the first box for cash though,,,I can always drive a hard bargin with cash in hand...279 turned into 201...Hey my gas ain't free...I'm looking for an even better deal...
