....because it was so nice and cozy under the covers on this chilly day. Ahhhh.
But, I realized that I had a lot on my plate and hadn't been posting for a few days so I decided to 'crawl' out of bed and get the day started!
****************************************************************
For starters, I will be getting a new furnace and air conditioning unit first thing tomorrow morning. My antiquated system has had its last hurrah and needs to be replaced. I have spent way too much money trying to keep it all running and it was time for a more efficient system.
The bad news is that this will be quite costly....but, the good news is that by getting it before the end of the year I will qualify for a $1500 Federal tax credit.
Thank you, President Obama. : )
**************************************************************
Oh yeah, when it rains it pours.
My washing machine and dryer (also quite old!) both need replacing. I have to run the dryer several times before the clothing fully dries...and the washing machine is leaking and not functioning very well. (That kind of sounds like I feel some days...ha ha)
When all is said and done, I should be running a more efficient household. Poorer, but, more efficient!
Maybe now you can understand my hesitancy to get out of bed this morning..... : )
*************************************************************
I know that I need a life when I found myself getting irate over the Dancing With The Stars results show last night.
Bristol Palin is in the finals....but, Brandy is not?
What is this world coming to?
************************************************************
Cardiologist follow-up appointment this afternoon. I have my long list of questions ready to go. I hope that the dr. is in a good mood!
I have to feel that drs. really appreciate a patient who asks a lot of questions. To me that means that the person is taking care of their own health and becoming their own advocate.
In this day and age, I truly believe that it is important....not to mention the importance when you are my age.
*groan* : )
************************************************************
Speaking of age, you know that you are truly a senior citizen when the clerk doesn't flinch when giving you the discount on Senior Day at the grocery store.
Just once I would like for them to ask me to prove that I am over 60!
***********************************************************
Thanksgiving is approaching....it is one of my most favorite holidays.
Unfortunately, my kids won't be coming down this year.
Fortunately, Dave and I are heading to our dear friends home to share the holiday with their wonderful family....children and grandchildren!
Unfortunately, I won't have any leftovers.
Fortunately, I bought a little baby fresh turkey yesterday that I will stuff and make to have here at home!
Unfortunately, I will so miss getting to see my precious grandbabies.
Fortunately, I will be awaiting word on my newest grandbaby's arrival in the next couple of weeks!!! A brand new baby to love.....
I truly have so much to be thankful for.....

XOXO

I do not watch Dancing with the Stars but it appears to be more of a popularity contest rather than a talent contest.
I was so angry....I even said on fb a nasty word, but, I wanted Brandy and Jennifer to be the final two. They are the best and have improved leaps and bounds over Bristol......
