Seriously

I'm not kidding when I say I'm tired, it's more than that I'm exhausted, or maybe weary,
whatever it is, it's to the bone. I feel like I sleep good, and long enough, but I cannot concentrate or get anything done, because I'm yawning all day!

Iron poor tired blood. I want to sleep for a week!

Taco Tuesday!

Well, it's Tuesday evening, we had tacos. I'm real tired of the same 9 things that are on my list of meals. I'm too lazy to try any of the recipes that I'm constantly reading from magazines. (I even go as far as cutting them out or taping them to cards and put them in my recipe file.)

Sometimes, when I'm looking at a magazine in a Doctor's office and I run across a recipe that looks yummy (of course if looks yummy, if it didn't they wouldn't put it in the magazine) so I sashay (?) to the front desk and ask if I could possible trouble them to make a copy of the recipe! Then, I fold it and put it in my purse (aka "the black hole of Calcutta") and later, maybe up to (2) weeks when I get around to cleaning out my purse, or decide to change purses, I run across the recipe, and I say to myself: "Self, that looked good in the magazine, all colored and stuff, but this black and white copy. . . . . not so good!" Then the paper finds it way to the garbage!

I keep telling myself that one day I won't always be tired and I'll try fun and creative recipes (and my husband will acquire real taste buds and want to try these creative dishes)

There is a road trip in my near future. I will be bringing someone who likes to try new and exciting dishes home with me. I'm giving her a "heads-up" This old kitchen wants a new taste treat on Tuesdays. . . . . . and every other day of the week!!

Elko Weekend

Boyd and I went west this last
weekend. There was a
motorcycle show called:
Rumble in the Rubies
In Elko, Nv.

We had (2) really cute reasons
to go.


This is McPhie #1 & #2 at
the show, standing
in front of
an ice cream vendor.

This is Mr Boyd standing in line
for a BBQ sandwich. . . .
it was m-m-good!


Here's Shawn, Aimee, Kimberly
(Shawn's niece)
McPhie #2 and McPhie #2
waiting for the
concert and the
raffle for a motorcyle
Shawn was hoping
to ride home on
a "won" Harley!
no such luck.
Thanks McPhies for your
hospitality. We loved
seeing all of you.

not this bad

I did a scary thing yesterday.
It was a 1st.
I rode my "Benny" to work.
I left at about 9:00 a.m.
It's about 14 miles, 1-way.
It took 35 minutes.
It was scary. . . . .
Oh, I already said that.
I had a bad case of "helmet hair".
I worried all day about my route home.
It took less time to get home.
It was less scary.
Sort of!
I was very tense when I got home.
Yahoo!!!

All-Time "HIGH"


I could only wish this was the number
I looked at when I jumped on my scales
yesterday morning. I jumped off and
back on (3) times. I held my breath,
I stepped on a different way,
I moved the scales
thinking they were on an "uneven" tile.


I.COULD.NOT.BELIEVE.IT.


So. . . .Fatty-La-Rue
Will be doing what
everyone that loses wiegh
does. . . . . .no magic
pill. . . . move more
eat less

Wish me well, ask me
occasionally if my a$$
is shrinking. I will be
drinking a caffeinated
beverage each morning
(Diet Mt. Dew) to keep
my strengh up what with
the diminished calorie intake
and all!!
