Keely is the unmom...at least she is on Tuesdays.
This is an actual, unedited or retouched photo from my back porch on Monday evening, around 8 p.m. eastern time:
I don't think I've ever seen that color sky before. Magenta? It was amazing.
I worked from home on Monday, scoring applications for a teacher workshop we have in the summer. We have 80 open spots, and 176 applications. Today, I made it through the first 55, alphabetically. That took from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Only 121 more to go...
Our tax refund arrived on Friday last week, enabling me to pay off several bills, and still help finance Ms. Partly Cloudy's upcoming nuptials (still 8 months away). I do not forget how fortunate we are = quite a lot really.
Our departure for Florida is eleven days away. My pedicure is still seven days away. Any chance I'll lose ten pounds in the next eleven days? Probably not. Actually, I'm okay with that. Not the pedicure thing, though. That needs to happen.
I have been enjoying the occasional Tigers' spring training game on the radio. They are typically interspersed with days that feature Red WIngs' games, which means I am in broadcast heaven. Except yesterday. There was a Tigers' game, but no radio or TV for it, and the Wings are off until Wednesday.
I love my Wings like they are my own offspring, but I'd be a poor mother not to recognize that they wouldn't stand a chance against this year's Vancouver Canucks. I feel certain the Cap'n will agree with me, unless he still can't figure out that he last signed in here as Supreme Leader, AKA, SUpreme Crusher of Dreams.
He usually participates in this Random Tuesday Thoughts thing as well. Go check out the links at Keely's place. You won't believe the treasures you can find there...
