Is the world off its axis today?

I can't believe it's been such a long time since I've posted anything. Seems like there aren't enough days in the week, much less hours in the day lately!

What with working two days each week, teaching conversational English to a very nice Mexican lady two afternoons each week, attending all kinds of classes in order to become a "better soldier" in the ASDF, teaching ladies with embroidery machines how to use their software and how to digitize, and paper work up the ying yang this old gal doesn't have time for an occasional "pit stop" these days!

I can't believe the price of gas! Good golly Miss Molly, but po folks like me won't be able afford to drive to the grocery store - and if we do scrape the funds together to get there, we won't be able to purchase any groceries! Why doesn't this make any sense?

Isn't today supposed to be the first day of Spring? Everything is in bud and trying to bloom, and the weather is cold, cold, cold! The old bones are creaking, groaning, and moaning very loudly these days!

Hmm, sounds to me like I'm complaining, doesn't it! WELL, I AM! Did you ever have one of those days when you wished you hadn't? Today is one of those days for me - nothing I've done has come out right, everything I've touched has landed on the floor in a huge mess, stepped on Miss Freckles' tail and hurt her feelings (probably didn't hurt her tail at all), while pouring my first cup of coffee of the day the mug broke (I did learn that hot coffee will sure put a shine on my kitchen floor!), and the "check engine" light came on in my car as I started it up to go to the post office. Think I should just go back to bed and try to start the day all over again - but, with my kind of luck, things would get worse!!!

Micky Finn is done for today!

Good Afternoon,
How's things going. Sorry I haven't posted before now. I have stopped by several times between the Feb. and March post.

Hope all is goiing OK at your end of the world.

I wish we knew something about Mama Mouse. It would be nice if Mr. Mouse posted something for her.

Have a great week-end. Hope you aren't expecting any uninvited guests and hope the weather is nice so you and Ms. Freckles can go outside.

I also have another blog at http://oldladylincoln.efx2.com

Hello Finn,
I know all to well what you mean by a bad day. It wasn't to long ago Cpt. Pyro and I was at Denny's eating and when we finished, around 9 p.m., we went outside to leave and my truck wouldn't start. To make matters worse, the first two people I called to come help us was already in bed asleep. The third person I called was awake, but fell asleep before he could get ready to come get us. We finally made it out of there around 12:30.
