Another Grand day!!

Just didn't have the energy to write last night. Had to get up really early to be a witness on a phone hearing by Texas workforce for the hotel where the club is. Couple of months ago had to call the owners of the hotel in California because the girl on the front desk was DRUNK....not just drinking. She got fired, filed for unemployment, got denied, appealed and hence my need to testify. Got up after 6 hours sleep and then she didn't bother to call them so she lost by default, lack of sleep on my part for no reason!

Since I was up I got busy...did payroll, updated reports on the computer, paid bills, and balanced 3 checkbooks. Laid down for a nap but got woke up by a phone call from the hotel manager again. Gave up, got up an went to the Texas State Fair with my hubby Lee for "date night".

Mondays are our date night since it's out only night off together. Doesn't mean we can't do stuff with other people, we just both have to do it. Sometimes it's just out to eat and then home to snuggle on the couch and watch TV or take a dip in the pool. I really look forward to date night.

So by the time we ate our way through the fair and got home after not enough sleep I was too pooped to write.

Got plenty of sleep last night though and didn't get up until 11:30. Since my baby sister is still visiting she was making lunch and doing alot of the stuff I do...made me feel like I was on vacation. Had planned to go to Sam's for the club, do some banking and other stuff but since it was my sisters last day here I decided to play hooky and hang with the girls!

Had a great day...dropped the great grandfather off to play Texas hold em with the seniors and then went shopping with my sister, mother and grandmother and still got all my Tuesday work done. (I just couldn't seem to blow off the work stuff) We went to a thrift store and made a donation, bought a few things there and then hit Sears @ the mall. Called mall security on a homeless guy who got mad 'cause we wouldn't give him any money.When we got home I told my husband he's got to start getting up earlier and stop me from shopping with them, I always spend the most money...LOL.

Tuesdays are pizza night for us. We all go to Pizza Inn and often other friends and family join us there. Tonight there were 8 of us and we had FUN!!! Ate too much and laughed alot.

Our dad was a big jokester and we seem to be carrying on his tradition, especially my brother and myself. Now the "great", Mama, has joined in and you just never know whats going to happen. We need to separate her and my husband Lee at the dinner table since they just feed off each others antedotes and pranks, but what would be the fun in that?

Got home from dinner and Mama came in mad because 1) her husband touched her in the car..2) she almost tripped walking in the door (that jam has been there 2 months)...3) she ran into the end table by the couch cause she couldn't see it (forgot where the light switch was) ...4) her closet isn't big enough and she doesn't have enough places to put her "crap". When we bought the house she decided she would rather have her own bathroom instead of a second closet. We spent about $10,000.00 changing the closet into a bathroom....I guess when your 92 you deserve a good bitch every now and then, but she used hers up tonight for the next 4 weeks as far as I am concerned.

Lees @ work doing Karaoke tonight and everyone else is tucked in bed.. Since we moved in together I can't smoke in the house anymore, which I hope will help me quit...but I'm out on the patio smoking and blogging and listening to the crickets.

Life is good with the "Grands" and tomorrow is another day..goodnight.:)
