I'm back from my weekend - and with a cold! 
But it is getting better - I just don't know if I"m coming or going - and my head feels like it's stuck inside a cloud.......... 
I feel rejected - someone I was supposed to meet up with , blew me off! !!!!!
( And in a a rather not so nice way.....

You're the one who put me on to the Larry McMurtry books! You had either mentioned them in your blog or in a comment to me, I can't remember. I'll have to check out Kate Atkinson. I think I've heard of Case Histories . . .

I have been vegging out with the Olympics now that we're back from our shit. The house is finally cleaned and got the yards mowed this morning, so now I can go back to drinking my wine and eating cheese and crackers! I have missed my quite times here at the house. Now that it's quite, I missed the grand kids,
So, have you caught up on your sleep?

You're quite the busy girl. I truly hope you have a fantastic Birthday. Mine is in a month and I'm actually looking forward to it. The past few years I didn't care much about my b-day but this year I feel more inclined to party and celebrate. Don't know why, just do. Anyway, best wishes.
mrchairman:
REALLY??? Mine is 9-12, go virgos. My wedding anniversay is 9-11.
I'm all packed and ready for the drive back to Seattle. Black Butte was fun and very relaxing - but I must return to the real world.
We have been watching the Olympic coverage at night..Wow! I'd forgotten how much I enjoy it! And how about those opening ceremonies????????? !!!!!!!!

I'm a maniac Olympic junkie and have been since age seven and the 1972 Munich games. Those opening ceremonies were, without question, the best EVER!!! If there's a trophy for entertainment value and precision, then just retire it now. The Chinese got it goin' on.
Glad you enjoyed my fair and lovely state. I've been so busy with work and rehearsal and various performance commitments it would've been impossible to find time to get together, I'm afraid. Maybe next time? Have a safe trip back!

I am having a very relaxing time here in the mountains of Oregon. The weather has been less than stellar - but it's OK too. ( See how chilled I am? ) We are all bonding together in this big house. The cousins are having a great time - There is nothing I feel like doing - so I am doing a whole lot of...

Heading off to Oregon tomorrow - Weather east of the mountains is hot and dry!! Yay! I it that way. Not meeting up with anyone I guess...... too little time, and a whole lot of driving.........
I went to a local fair the other night, and heard my brother's band play. One of the 3 or 4 he plays lead guitar in. I was very...

Aren't you a bit forceful. 
The Kid Rock concert was awesome! He sure does put on an excellent show!
I have 2 new corsets and a whole bunch of photos to look through. Hopefully I'll like a couple of them and post them, so watch this space -
Going out west to Seattle and Oregon, on Monday. Be gone for 3 weeks but I will have my computer with me....

Apparently half of Detroit will be on the West coast next week. Will that make the water deeper in Malibu and shallower in Atlantic City? Might be good for the Outer Banks, they need all the sand they can get.
Well - No Clint Eastwood today....... but I did get my new corset half finished
I also got my toenails freshly pedicured and polished. I'm a freak about keeping my feet nice - any foot-fetishists out there??

I know, all I ever hear from homeowners is them bitching about their houses! So why do they keep telling me to buy one?? I'm convinced I'm making the right decision.
My horse SIssy is a little lame, so I haven't been able to ride her for about a week - I wrote about it in the equine group. I rode another horse in my lesson last Monday, but this week is the county fair (e.g., horse show), so no lessons this week. Sissy's doing REALLY well, though. We went through a rough period where she was testing me left and right. It was right when they started using her as a lesson horse (go figure) (she's owned by the barn). But I was consistent with her, plus I increased our positive time together since I felt like I was correcting her left and right! She looooves grooming, so I did extra long grooming sessions, and hand-grazing, and finding all the places she likes to be scritched, etc. We got through that period and our relationship has just grown even better. She's a real sweetie and continues to improve. I hope she gets better soon! I'm glad you & Xena are doing well!

Oh, and you had the wrong Anika. You had the SG Annika. Anika's page doesn't come up. She went anon before going grey. I fixed it for ya.
