Sadness

My sister and her children left today at 8am. I woke at 5am to get them over to the airport. I find myself pretty sad that they are no longer at my mom's house. I'm not even sure I'll make the trek there every weekend from now on. My sister's husband is supposedly getting a transfer to either Georgia or D.C. in May. I hope that happens.

Otherwise, things are the same. I am trying to decide on my contribution to the feast that we're calling Thanksgiving dinner. Really though, why do 20 people need two turkeys and a ham? Those are just the meats. I fear for my waistline. It's just started to shrink, thankfully, and I find the ordinary day-to-day decision making with meals difficult. I just pray that I'm somehow given the willpower of a thousand dieters. Good juju appreciated.

What else? (I should change the name of my journal to that, huh?) I never did find a new phone I could afford to upgrade to so I've got a land line I'm going to have to start using. My cell phone angers me. I had to stop myself from throwing it the other day. I'll call someone or someone calls and I get all of 30 seconds to talk and then "call failed". Oh how I hate those two words. Maybe I'll hint that Santa should bring that to me.

Happy Saturday night.

They're all the same

So as per our new routine, the hubby and I did a little shopping, then dinner out and then a movie..at home.

We sat through the first 45 minutes of "The Wendall Baker Story", I'm not impressed so far.

I went to try and get a new T-Mobile phone tonight. That bombed. Since I've only been a customer for 9 months I get practically no discount on an upgrade. I calmly explained that my phone has not been holding a charge and the phone drops calls like someone with the shakes. He suggested I "reboot" my phone. I considered this. I realized I never turn my phone off. So it's resting now. I am not going keep not turning it off. I have resolved myself of it - I shall remain...unreachable. Heh.

Anyway, Sprint, T-Mobile...doesn't seem to matter. They're all the same.

i heart 30 rock

I heart it so much it deserves it's own LJ entry.

I seriously have never laughed continuously through anything on TV. But last night...

Ups

Hmmm....

I'm all agog about the wonderful messages regarding my impending move. Thanks! However, nothing is laid in stone. I've had to let myself not think about it until next year. I hope that I won't be hurt too much if/when we live in Vancouver...Washington by the way.

I'm so doing ok right now. I've developed a Facebook addiction and regular TV routine that includes Heroes on Monday, Pushing Daisies on Wednesday, NBC all night on Thursday (damn, I love 'The Office'). It's what we do.

Not much else. Meh.
