:::waving::: Hi folks!!  No, there is no volcano this time :::giggle:::I hope you all had a day as magnificent as mine.   Why was mine so great?  No reason.  LOL  I really didn't do anything.  A little shopping, some more laundry, lounged around the house, cooked and cooked.  Played here of course!   Nothing major. 
 
While I was doing laundry I couldn't help but notice the trees out back, as well as the vibrant green grass.  I came back upstairs and grabbed my camera and shoes.  I went down and out the sliding doors to the patio.  I decided to take a few different angles.  None are actually 'in' my back yard, but rather the woods that are behind the houses on my street.  In the one shot you can see my neighbors garden (or what is left of it) I was going to edit out the fences but decided against it.  The chair is one of two that sit out on the patio.  I decided to grab a shot and tube out the background to use as an accent here.  You all know I've been going to town with digital scrap kits and I am really pleased with how this came out.  I am actually going to redo it slightly.  Taking off the existing text and I will add Welcome.  I'm going to print and frame it to hang in my hallway near the door to my house.  Opinions?
 
The Bills didn't play today.  Instead they have the privilege of being totally embarrassed on national TV playing the Cowboys on Monday Night Football.  Oh the joy!  Of course I will watch, but my gut feeling is they will get their asses kicked and look like a JV team playing with the Pro's.  I am a jock at heart, as though you might have missed that, so football has been on all day.  I haven't been glued to it, but it's been my background noise all day.  Ahhhh Sunday's!   While I'm talking football, can someone tell me why Da Bears decided to come to play today?   Sorry Chicago fans, but I would love to see Brett win this game.  I'd love to see the Packers go 16-0.  LOL  Aaaahhhhh Brett  :::googly eyed:::
 
My sister worked all afternoon so I did dinner.  I did beef stroken off...  I mean Beef Stroganoff.  As it simmered the house smelled wonderful.  Just like fall but with temps in the low 80's.  I have to admit it tasted absolutely wonderful. 
 
Ok, just something I noticed as I type this entry.  I generally open mail and type away as though I am typing an email.  This way I can save it as 'send later' in case something comes up.  It also helps if I get booted.  Once I'm done typing I just copy and paste into my entry.  So here I sit and I am being totally distracted by wiggling asses.  Yes, you heard that right. In AOL's infinite wisdom they have ads on the bottom of each mail you type.  Imagine that!?!?!  LOL  Anyway the ad I've been seeing is for cellulite.  HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO who the hell does AOL think is going to click on it?  Can't even tell you the product as it now has changed to Under Armour.  Good Gaaawd.  How freakin distracting!!! 
 
Back to the regularly scheduled entry.  I also made some chicken to have during the week.  Just like old times.   Football Sunday was always my day to cook.  I'd plan out the week and do a good chunk of the cooking while the games were on TV.  With working every day it just made it easier.  Warm it up and have dinner done before 8pm.  Me thinks I am so smart ::evil grin::
 
So, if you've made it this far, thank you.  My boring life.............    Off to play a bit more before calling it a night.  I am looking for the video the Sabres played on opening night.  You Tube here I come.  LOL
 
Hugs

hmmm me thinks this picture is going to throw my journal out of wack.  :::sigh:::
A Prayer for my Sister?
