Alright - here's a quote from my last post which I believe was Thursday...
"Everyone else is in bed (except for Jade who is still not home @ 12:30am). She should be home and thumping around any time now."
I was so tired and just wanted to go to bed. So, I decided I'd fly out to Hortons to grab a coffee while I waited for the Princess to arrive. An hour went by. No Jade. Two hours went by. No Jade. So, I decided I'd go check her room to see if she had snuck in while I was out grabbing coffee. Nope. No Jade. Then I see it. A note. While I was out getting my coffee, she had come home to get her stuff and left a note saying that she was spending the night at Katrinas and that they were heading back to school on Saturday. I sat up and waited for nothing.
Then - my considerate Princess arrived home Monday morning at 12:30 (as I was heading out to the grocery store) looking for a ride back to her place. Guess they decided to stay in Burlington instead of going back to Niagara as planned.
Did I mention it was pouring rain? Dagnabbit - frickem frackem. I was not impressed. So - 45 minutes there, 45 minutes back. And, I still had to do my groceries. There was absolutely nothing to eat in the house. No lunch meats. No bread. No snacks. No drinks. NOTHING. So, my night continues as I head out to Sobey's.
Did I mention it was pouring rain?
Holy f*&#. The front path was under 2" of water. What used to be grass surrounding the path had turned into a giant mud puddle - 2" deep as well. I had to make four trips through the swamp carrying groceries. It was during my first haul up to the front door that I realized I have holes in my shoes. Not nice. It was 3:15 in the morning and I still had to put the groceries away (with muddy-wet socks on).
Then my spirits lifted... while laying on the couch wondering how I was going to function on 3½ hours sleep, I saw an infomercial for the Cricut Expression die cutter thing. I was mesmerized. Then after only 2½ hours sleep, I woke up, turned the computer on and looked online to see how much they are. Needless to say, I will be saving for a few months so I can purchase one. They have them here at Michael's for $499 - however I was advised that they do go one sale now and again. So I will save while waiting for a sale.
My birthday is in a couple weeks, which means I have to take the Rendezvous in for a drive clean and I have to buy stickers for the plates. Had to get new photo id last year, so that at least saves me the extra $90 or whatever the Hell they charge for that. Money money money.
Thursday we're going to the Leaf's game to watch Daryl's friend and old teammate who plays for Tampa Bay Lightning. More money.
Friday, Tom is going to play simulated golf. More money.
Saturday, Tom is going to play poker with the usual suspects. At least he wins money (more often than not). I will be the DD again.
OMG - I have to end this. One of the cats just came in and left a nice steamy pile in the litter box sitting in the corner. Must have been Bonnie or Clyde. They for some reason will not cover their poop. Outta here - GAG!
