Where did September go?
Memory: In 2001 I was seeing my family doctor quite frequently to discuss ways of dealing with depression. I was told him I was trying to talk my husband into buying me a dog, and asked if he could write a prescription for that; so he did. Here is how the prescription read:
"It is a well know fact that pets improve depressed conditions. In particular Dr. IWAN ADOG has shown the efficancy of a small bichon shitzu in helping manage these problems."
Dr. Yee actually wrote this out on a real prescription notice. I loved Dr. Yee. Whether he agreed with some of my suggestions or not, he always had an open mind. Needless to say it took me we another 5 years and a lot of tequila to convince Bill I should have a dog; and I traded in the Bichon shitzu for a chihuahua. I figured if I can't find the time to get myself a haircut, when would I have time to take the dog for a haircut.
Well, it's Sunday, and the weather turned out beautful - there is reason we have autumn. The trees are so beautiful (despite most of their leaves landing in our yard) I've got a roast on the BBQ, potatoes in the oven, asparagus on the stove, and two margaritas down already. (you can take the lady out of Vegas, but you can't take Vegas out of the lady)
Next week in our Thanksgiving (De, I hope you remember to celebrate your inheirited heritage). The son is coming home for the weekend and has promised to be available for our dinner.
This is the last week of golfing at the course for Bill, so looks like I'll be back to making regular weekly suppers again - I love being a golf widow.
Busy week coming up - back to three regular jobs and subbing for a fourth. Despite how busy it sounds, it's still only part time hours - and did I mention, I love my jobs.
Have a great week.
Stacey
