Happy Happy happy Monday! How are all of you? I am better now than I was a half hour ago. I was int he middle of an intense dream- a murder trail, complete with defendant in an electric chair- when my alarm went off. It took me a long time to get out of the dream, into wake-up zone and then finally out of bed.

It the last day of school for Caitlyn and tonight is her graduation. She is really not wanting to go and is disgusted by the bright gold satin robes the girls have to wear. Apparently in a discussion at school the girls decided that they should get the black robes, b/c black is slimming.Now, *that* is one bit of reasoning I hadn't heard before LOL

Our Father's Day was nice, we pulled off a yummy breakfast and Yes! Gary was able to eat it! Then off to MIL's with the all of my extended family there. My SIL Diane has two girls 8 and 11, and they think Scott is just the funniest, coolest thing ever, especially the 8 yo. She just looks at Scott and laughs hysterically. Its so nice to see that.

Then I feel into bed, grabbed my book and then I hear banging out on my front steps. Ray starts to growl a bit, and I look outside- the Mama bear is back trying to steal our garbage can again (did I tell y'all Gary and Scott were able to rescue it?) but we tied it to the stair railing. A little while later, I hear more crashing and she got my neighbor across the street's can.Rolled it down her drive, across the road, across my lawn and then into the woods. I wish I could have taped it because what a crazy sight! Big Mama bear and literally rolling and dragging a bear can..... and the little ones running around beside her.

I have to admit I am both a bit worried for her and by her. Four cubs is unusual and beign that she is consistently going after bear cans means that there is not much easier for her to get- whether it be non-secured garbage or naturally foraged food. She is either going to have to stay aggressive in food-gathering and risk getting tagged and or killed, or those cubs might suffer. :(

Enough about me, how was your weekend? What are you plans for today? I hope they include lots of good stuff!

i think yesterday was the longest day of my life, for some reason. i was up at 5:45 and the day just DRAGGED from there. some yard work. some laundry, some grocery shopping, a little of this a little of that. and it dragged on FOREVER. i think that's a clue that i'd better find something interesting and worthwhile to get involved with today. my family room is looking NASTY. looks like a giant Clean-a-Thon is in order. not that THAT is interesting....

hope everyone's week starts off well and keeps on going in that direction! :wave:
 
Morning all - walk is done- the parts of the house I cleaned last Thurs/Fri are still clean- I was able to read and concentrate- this is scary= what if it sticks this time??? Well off to shower and work and bring in the dog- surprised he can breathe out there a hot sticky week here.
 
Morning everyone... It's almost 5:30am here and I am up for work already. I think that I have been awake off and on since 3:00am :mmph: I know that I am gonna crash and burn later on this afternoon!!

Fathers Day supper turned out great! We had steak and prawns, stuffed potatoes, asparagus and salad with fresh sliced strawberries topped with walnuts and raspberry walnut dressing. I sure paid for all that rich food and had heartburn most of the night!! The Prawns were huge and ohhhh so delicious, my MG cooked them to perfection on the BBQ.

Chris - Wow graduation nite already?? Didn't school just start a little while ago?? Hope all goes well with the gold gowns! Sounds like your Mamma Bear is finding the easy food and could be in trouble soon! Must have been quite the sight watching her take your neighbors garbage can! Your dream sounds interesting! Were you watching some kind of murder movie last night before bed? We watched "The Grey" the other night and I dreamed of Wolves all night long :fear: not a great movie BTW.

Phylis - I think that today will be one of the longest days of my life!! I wish I could just stay home and go back to bed!! Hope your clean-a-thon goes well!!

Laurie - Wish I had the energy to get in a walk this morning!! Send some of your warm weather here please!!!! It is still cool and wet here.

Have a great day everyone, I am off to shower and hopefully feel a bit more awake before dragging my butt to work. :wave:
