Odds And Ends…
Had to do a double take while listening to a football game on the radio. A commercial that Subway is running has the song “September” from Earth, Wind, and Fire in it. I guess everyone has to get paid. But whatever happened to originality???
The weather is FINALLY turning cooler. And I for one, am happy. The long months of being covered in sweat are almost over. And next week the temps are going to be in the mid 50′s. Now, I can start my walks again…
Got an interesting letter from management about our raises. In so many words, we the workers should be lucky that we got a raise. “Scoffs” “Snorts” Well, if you read in between the lines, that’s what gist of it was. Ah, gotta love it. And had a good laugh at it.
T-Mobile, my cell carrier, set me an e-mail about a $5.00 a month data plan. Now, if only Wal Mart has the cell phone I want. Or do I want to wait and deal with the paper work of a mail-in rebate? Decisions, decisions…
I have amend one of my favorite desserts: Pineapple Upside Down Cake. Just bought one and damn… I have to pace myself or the whole danged thing won’t last weekend… (Need to walk for an hour if this keeps up. Or maybe sweating at work wasn’t so bad after all…)
Halloween falls on Wednesday, and hopefully when I get off from work the good candy will still be around at Wal Mart. I swear, I saw people with loaded shopping carts with candy at 50% off last year. (yeah, may have to relocate to the summer like climates…)
Well, the clothes are washed for the week. Maybe tomorrow I’ll know how much the cost of the repairs on the lawn mowers or if the place rents them… (that’s what I’ve missed, mowing the lawn and getting a decent walk in…)
Well, crossing my fingers, Top Three Tuesday will be back. Long hours on Mondays addled my brain cells more than usual.
Short night tonight. Have to be ready to go and take scrap the recycle center in A.M.
Have a quiet weekend everyone!!!

I am loving the cooler weather. However, I’ve not been able to enjoy much of it since I’ve been sick. Happy to know it’s going to stick around for awhile. I am so sick of the 100+ temperatures here.
I love pineapple upside down cake. It’s been forever since I’ve had it. I’d completely forgotten about it! I also used to love an orange ambrosia cake that a bakery in a small town nearby used to make. They closed for renovations and were supposed to open in a month, but I think it’s going to be permanent. *sigh*
Enjoy your weekend! Hope the repairs aren’t an arm and a leg.
