Can you find MC Daughter in this group?

Word of the Day

Pilforkate - To steal food from another person's plate while they are not watching.


Yesterday, MC Daughter graduated from Correctional Officers Training. Go MC Daughter! She'll be heading off for more advanced training at the end of the month...after which we'll have to start calling her Sgt. MC Daughter...or...for brevity's sake, Sarge.

The winds of the other day blew away the hot temperatures, ushering in the some cooler, sweater weather. I no longer have to rush to close the windows. Actually, I ended up having to hunt up one of my sweaters.

The Gator is still puddling on our driveway. Even though HTP took it back in yesterday and they supposedly fixed the problem...it's not fixed. HTP took some pictures and is bringing The Gator back to the shop as I write this.

Added to the list of things that need doing...again...the water softener that sprung a leak which had to be fixed and was fixed, sprung another leak in the same spot. Unfortunately, it's been longer than 30 days since our last repair. 35 days.

Noteworthy Quote of the Day

Without the aid of prejudice and custom I should not be able to find my way across the room.
