The best laid plans of mice and men-----

My dd and I were supposed to go have a mother daughter day.  She was supposed to drop her son off at school and then she and I would go play but grandson got sick during the night and so he did not go to school.  Her husband had to work , she had to stay home with the baby.  I was disapopointed and worried about baby.  I hope he did not ge tthe flu.  So many children are out because of the flu and one of the private schools in the area has simply closed down for a week now becasue so many of the students had to miss.

My dh got off of work early so we went out to get some groceries, and then we went to Wendys,  but we left without eating.  About the only thing there that I could eat was the boneless honey chicken, and they discontinued serving that item.  I wish I did not have the allergy but I do and so I had to leave without eating.  But dh said tomorrow everning he and I are going to the local restaurant and I will be able to order from the menu just what I can eat.  Next Fri. dd said she and I will be going out and we will play all day.  I think she wants to go to Ruby Tuesdays,  and I know I can eat there.  I like their cheese fries,  (maybe too much) 

This morning I heard some dogs barking, and I looked out of the window. There were 3 dogs barking so I went out to see what was going on.  They saw me and started towards me growling and acting like they were going to attack.  So I began yelling and kicking and clapping my hands I picked up a huge branch and began swinging it at them and they ran away.  I told my dh about it and I know how to shoot a rifle and a shotgun and we have both.  The next time I see those dogs I wll shoot because when grandson is here I can't take a chance that those dogs could get after him.  Those were huge dogs and he is so little.  Dh told me to call the police first.  I will but really people should keep their dogs in a pen or tied up. 

It's going to be cold tonight and then we will start getting warmer and warmer.  Tomorrow I will be planting some lettuce seeds, and peas.  Who will help me plant my seeds??? said Henny Penny.

Sleep well everyone,
God bless.

  1. not me, said the dog! it's been a looooong time since i've heard that story.

    i'm sorry your plans went awry, Joy, but now you've got all week to anticipate this friday, Lord willing!

    i agree about the dogs. it would bother me to see that, and especially if there were a kid around. you can't take any chances!

    its been a long time since i've had ruby tuesday's, but you saying that makes me want to try some of those fries! the maddest i've ever been at a restaurant, and i'm embarrassed to say this, was at ruby's when i ordered a bowl of white chicken chili, and it was like a teaspoonful.

    stay warm and sleep well yourself, Joy. enjoy your weekend! love ya.
