What? Where am I...?

This is from Nancy's blog....

What? Where am I...?

New Year's Eve

Well, Christmas was a hit with the grandkids. Except the ANTS didn't arrive for the ant farm! Poor Jake. He got a blob of Jelly from Grandpa and no ants! LOL. He'll get them soon. He got a million other things, so he was happy.


It's New Year's Eve day. Nothing scheduled for tonight. Maybe the Slugout or Back Street Tavern. Maybe home. Scared of the Farmington Gestapo!

Oh, well, I'll post after the "celebration"?

Ahhh Christmas shopping...

I used to be terrible at Christmas shopping. I'd wait til the day or night before. Rush in and pick stuff out that was terrible and end up feeling guilty that I'm not like the people who do theirs on Labor Day!

Well, thank you internet! (And also my friend jestsetgirl4 in cyberspace.) Now I (she) does it a couple of weeks before and UPS/FedEx/DHL bring them to my house. Christ, I feel like I'm having Christmas when the trucks beep, beep into my driveway.

Best gift this year: Ant Farm! This is for one of my grandchildren. (Ants sold separately, lol!) I really want to plague my daughter LOL. The ants haven't arrived yet. By the way, I do I keep the ants alive between now and Christmas? What the hell do they eat?

Slower than slow......

Boy, I wish I were more persistent! The blogger.com is a great site and makes it very easy to blog, but I keep putting it off. Look at the lapse between my posts. Terrible isn't it. What do I have to say anyway?

Actually, I could say a lot but I'm scared someone might actually read it. It's Dec. 15 and it's cold and very dry in Maine. The dew point is 0 (zero) and the temp this AM was 2 degrees. Why do we live in this climate?

Oh, about the blogger thing... how do the people who post comments send ads? Annoying. You have to type that weird letter thing in the comment section to post. So do these a**holes actually take the time to go to random blogs and cut and paste ads and the type the word thing? IS it some computer program thing? I don't know but it is mean spirited.

I'm going to try to blog more. (Yeah! Right!)
