Thoughts on the Day

  • The planned trip to the ice skating rink turned into a trip to the roller rink for Girlie Bear and her friend.  I’m thankful that they are now old enough I can just drop them off and come back.
  • Trying to find a pair of denim shorts for my daughter that don’t make her look like a prostitute or a gangbanger was a lot more work than I thought it would be.
  • Having to crawl under your car to fix a loose wire, in an asphalt parking lot, at 2 PM, on the hottest day of the year so far is a less than optimal way to spend your off time.
  • To the twit in the store parking lot who parked crookedly across both her and my parking spaces, thereby shoving her front bumper into my front bumper, I hope that little SUV of yours bursts into flames in your driveway tonight.  
  • My youngest son seems to be a test to see how many languages I can count to 10 in.  So far, he’s got me up to four before the red-tinged tunnel vision subsides.
  • Half of the peaches that Irish Woman picked last night, along with 10 tablespoons of pectin and 12.5 cups of white sugar are now cooling in 8 jars.  
  • I have been informed that I will be making another batch of pickles on Sunday.  
    • I need to pick up some fresh garlic and a couple jalapenos.
  • The residual foam and syrup from making peach jam makes a darn fine topping for vanilla ice cream.
  • I put a new boomstick on layaway today.  Details to follow.
