Thanks for all the congrats, beautiful army people!!

Tipps, I can totally relate! My eldest is only 12 and recently she and her friends were messing around with makeup-- Cheeses! is right. Scary. What do you have planned for tonight?
Dreamy, cabin fever!! Yikes! Do you have any trips planned for the near or not so near future? How's the weather in your area? Where did you do your gallivanting? I have to say I am so happy to have the next 3 days off I could SCREAM!!!!

You've a few more years of keeping your eye on the boys, Tips and Els....

Els, drove around the blueberry consultant's farm, took some pics there - much better now, thanks! Working from home has its drawbacks, unfortunately, and the rainy weather the last couple of days didn't help much, either. What are you planning for your days off?

Off to make something to eat - absolutely starving here!

Dreamy, I've got a whole lot of nothing planned! No, I think we will head to a museum tomorrow-- something we never do in our own town! May as well be a tourist here if I can't go anywhere else!! FOR SURE I will head to the gym each day until Monday. I was on such a role and then got off for a week and a half. It's the most important factor in keeping me even-keeled. What are you fixing to eat? I just had a delicious salad with roasted fennel bulb and shallots with cranberries, roasted hazelnuts and endive with a sweetish white balsamic dressing. Yummy-- from a new cookbook I have..

That salad sounds absolutely divine, Els! I made curried meatballs some time ago, so having that with a onion and banana relish and perhaps brown rice - will decide when I'm in the kit hen.

And a lovely quote from her: It's the friends you can call up at 4 a.m. that matter.

You said you learned in Highschool, didn't you? Or at the University??
What languages did you learn as a child in school? Loved the quote...

Curried meatballs! yummy...

Off to watch a film with the BF-- no idea which one. Will let you know if it's good.

A few of you know that I archive old documents in a lawyer's office and I came across this today...........

'Our client works for XYZ with an income between ?500 & ?700 per month. She also receives child benefit of ?138 per month.

Her husband is a Police Office (a Dong Handler) earning ?37/38K per annum'

Needless to say not a lot was done as we were weeping laughing.

Now that I would pay to see.

Just as well it wasn't a court document and had to be read out as written.
