It sure helps me when I have a lot to blow on about (although my readers get their ears pinned back and probably cry).<br /><br />You poor thing! Also, I am not, nor have I ever been, a pot smoker, but I think I'd have to recommend it for days like yours right there. You'd have been sitting on the floor making pictures in the coffee puddle and trying to build ant trails out of salad dressing.<br /><br />I swear I'm not a pot smoker; I just play one on your blog.<br /><br />And high fives to Grandma J for this:<br /><br />"Your first mistake was packing a lunch."<br /><br />which made me make donkey noises. Again -- not a pot smoker. MWAHH!!

Almost as bad as an automatic lawn mower...it won't work...arrghh...<br /><br />I'm going to bed. She can sort it out herself!<br /><br />Yes, a great idea to get her to write something as a guest on my blog...better still she could come and be a guest commenter here. Or should that be a common tater?

There's lots of good ethnic food in Arlington, and you've picked a fantastic weekend to explore all our tourist attractions.

I also ventured out on the lawn mower today, no roomba in sight, although that KILLER GOOSE came at me more than once when I was looking for the gas can in the barn next door. Oh, the humanity. Hey, it's nothing but a Fantastic Voyage, this thing called life. FV was on an album. But I had oh-so-many 8-track cassettes. They were so good.)<br /><br />BHE - One cannot argue with you or a trained medical professional. Amen, sister.<br /><br />Annie. Oh dear. Please don't judge Virginia by Northern Virginia, although it has plenty of merits. If you ventured just two hours away in either direction you'd find yourself in a whole 'nother world. One without Thai food, for example. You will enjoy the Smithsonian and all the amenities the city can offer. I recommend Viet Garden restaurant in Arlington. Oh, they have some good stuff. But then again most places you eat up there that aren't chains are going to be wonderful. Enjoy your family and wish you could be here in July for our little gathering. Little sis? Would love to hear from her, maybe she'll do a guest post on your blog.<br /><br />Have a great Friday/weekend.Chesapeake Bay Womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07187804072769932131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2240067140694289750.post-52432317799652477492009-04-16T21:18:00.000-04:002009-04-16T21:18:00.000-04:00Whew...you are also making me worn out...and I was...Whew...you are also making me worn out...and I was all worn out already before I read your post!<br /><br />My sister and I traveled down to Washington by bus(coach?) today, and we are holed up in a nice hotel somewhere here in Arlington...luckily between us both, we have one brain, so it was nice to get here safely, and settled in. We may never move out again!<br />Smithsonian tomorrow, bus tour Saturday..or something...back to NYC Sunday ...little sis who does all the organising, and is only 3 days into her jetlagged trip from Australia, is flat out asleep and snoring on the bed already. I took a photo of her and the flash didn't even make her stir...now I am going to send it to her husband, kids, big sister and brother!!<br /><br />Hope you do recover from your stressed out day...I am sure you will wake bouncing and fresh in the morning, just don't try to carry too many things at once. Boy I remember those days when the kids were at school and there was so much happening, sports, music, etc. I am so glad I am old now!Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10698343129217681652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2240067140694289750.post-11415407326477983552009-04-16T21:16:00.000-04:002009-04-16T21:16:00.000-04:00If you were to tell your doctor about your day, I'...If you were to tell your doctor about your day, I'm sure he would prescribe wine.

I have been reading all of the blogs but by the time I can reply-everyone else is already in bed.

Thanks to you I have been having "Double Dutch Bus" screeching in my scary head for a few weeks.

You know, I think about you often as I try to streeeetttttch out my work day and remember a recent post you did on your typical work day before you retired (i.e. get coffee, talk for ten minutes, etc.).
