I know blogs kinda are blah without the pics, but I haven't been doing any major outings lately on account of a few things. One being I got used to staying in because of a tot with a nose problem which turned into an eye problem over the weekend and now it back to nothing, phew. But during that time I learned I could save money by staying home...surprise. Last week I saved money on gas and mindless spending, which lent to a major shopping spree over the weekend!!! I'm not unhappy about that so I'll stay home some more this week and see what happens. No spending spree in the future though, we have to save to go to a party in DC. One of Thomas' friends is getting married and engagement partys are all the rage now. Grandma is coming to watch Tyler and we are going to zoom down and back.
Outside today is beautiful, and I am at home waiting for the door repair man to come. I can't even go for a walk in the brisk air, which is my favorite air to walk in...I don't think Tyler likes brisk too much though, he hates wind. That means that right now is not his fav. time of the year, especially with Ike sending us some major wind (another reason not to go anywhere.) SO here we are waiting until noon for a man who will probably not show up. The fix it men never show up the first time. Not until you call and say nobody came do they really send someone over. Grrrr! I would rather fix it myself but it is beyond repair they need to replace it.
So with no pics to post, I am looking through the pics that we do have and am realizing that I need to make more of an effort with this picture taking thing. I don't have any really great pics to boast of and it makes me sad that I live in this beauty of a place and I have not been doing my best to capture our time here...sappy, I know! But anyway while fall is here I am going to make an effort to take better/more pictures, which might mean I have to create some photo ops.
Today: Where is the fix it guy!?! I got my coffee in hand. Thanks Thomas!!! and were waiting. Tyler is on a poop boycott (again) and is pacing to keep it all in. The laundry monster has been staring me down all morning and I'm gonna have to give in at some point. I gotta get the guest bed ready for my mom, and in general I need to clean. But it is more likely that I will be reading for a good part of the day. Chow!

Finally back on line today. So enjoyed a couple of new blog days ! Lots of down limbs and leaves but no damage. Fingers crossed at the first rain, hard to tell about the roof, but I can't see any loose shingles. Pattie and Gary still haveno power, so a generatoris a good item to have. I think I'll get one around Christmas. Did the door person come? LOL! You and coffee !!
