Random thoughts…
Before I start exchanging comments with promisesunshine, just thought I’d post some random thoughts today…
It’s almost May and there is a freeze warning tonight and I was dodging sleet and rain this afternoon. Gotta love north eastern Ohio weather.Added bonus that I’m less than 10 miles from Lake Erie. Where I work at, I go to the end of the street, I can see Lake Erie. It’s cool to see the waves crash on shore from where I stand. So i am afraid of what the summer will bring. Either it’s going to be a scorcher or another Ice Age. We had the rain last year so I’m kinda expecting drought conditions. So who knows.
Went to the local library for it book sale. Was hoping to pick up some more For Better Or For Worse collections but it was not to be. I did score some interesting items. Some of the things I picked up were: No One Here Gets Out Of Here Alive, Season One of Millennium in good condition, The Godwulf Manuscript in pretty good condition, two other Robert B. Parker books that I didn’t have (He did write 50+ books), A Max Allan Collins novel on the show Bones, A Elmore Leonard book, a book by G. Xavier Robillard that caught my eye, The Richard Bachman collected books, The Guns Of Navarone, A couple action/adventure books, a Tim Dorsey book, a Vince Flynn book, a couple of westerns and a U2 CD I didn’t have. All told I spent a whopping $13.00. So before going to bed, I will read the Bachman book. I love Stephen Kings introduction to the book…
Sister is cooking something I was told that has to sit over-night for some damned reason. I have enough left-overs of my own to eat. Nothing like Won ton Soup with fried rice with shrimp, ham, pork with assorted vegetables. That with a week old pine apple up-side down cake and I think I don’t have to cook to much this weekend.
Cut the front yard yesterday after watching the weather forecast. Hoping to get the rugs and curtains to a laundromat tomorrow and maybe do some weed trimming around the homestead depending on how warm it it is…
Time for some dinner unless I get distracted by making comments on other Xanga posts…

We had such a drought last year that the rain here is welcome.
I absolutely LOVE a good book sale. Love it.
i missed this! sorry. hope today is glorious. the sun is shining here. i’m going to slay the grass when it dries a little bit. (it’s pretty darn high)
i don’t know much about any of your fine purchases. but i love a book sale. we have a local booksale every year. it fills a BARN. yes, you read that right. a BARN. i’m salivating just thinking about it. it must be soon, in fact.
