Another Stolen Meme
From Blackbird at Say La Vee.
... reading--Another Goldie (the caterer) mystery. I hadn't checked out a "fun" book from the library in a long time!
... listening to--radio streaming on my computer
... watching--The Mentalist. I'm not at all into police shows but this is a fun one. Lots of eye candy, too!
... eating--my husband's yummy cooking
... drinking--green smoothies most mornings for breakfast (usually as I drive to work)
... making--plans for a couple of sewing projects--baby blankets to donate and an apron or two for my daughter
... waiting--for the weekend!
... wondering--if my boss is going to retire and leave me unemployed
... hoping--to see some sunshine this weekend
... thinking--about all of the things I would like to get done

Re-entry
In an attempt to start blogging again, I have decided to try to write something every day, even if it is just about the weather.
How many people do you know who have said, my grandmother kept a little diary, and every day she wrote about the weather. I've heard it a few times.
So, just for the record, we have had one of the wettest Octobers on record, and it has not hit 70 at any time this month, which is also unusual, I hear. At least it hasn't snowed!!! I also heard on the weather report this morning that we have only had two total hours of sunshine in the last 2 weeks but we are supposed to get some this afternoon. Yippee!
Autumn is my favorite season, and it has still been spectacular in spite of all of the clouds and rain.
Well, there you go! I'm baaaack!

Random Fill-Ins
From Fridays I missed.
1. It's cold and dry (as in not humid) for July. Yippee!

3. My favorite health and beauty product is Crest Baking Soda and Peroxide Whitening Toothpaste.
4. Taking my daughter to college and back last year was a nice long ride. 3600 miles is a nice long ride, right?
