Serenity now on the TVM!
Yes...the last 2 days before we start to celebrate the Star Trek Starship Captains.
In the meantime, we will finish up with the muppets!!! Please don't leave popcorn under the seats for George the janitor to clean up....
I don't think he'll be very happy about it.

My, my, the weekends are soooo slow around here.
Not much happening at my end of the world.
Had a good dinner of sandwiches and salads and fruit and now I just want to sleep. Actually, I've been dozing all day. I missed two innings of the afternoon ballgame today due to falling asleep in my chair. All that adrenalin that dropped into my system yesterday made it hard to sleep last night. I should be able to get a good night's sleep tonight though.
Scribbles, you working?
I hope not....
 to the lot of ya...
*Due to lack of people to do for, gives the Svens the night off, then sets about getting things set up for Captain's month...*
Oh, don't worry, if someone needs a Sven, there's one on call...

And I've been just sleeping for a good part of today. The hubby and the younger daughter made a long walk, and I would have loved to join them, but I was simply too TIRED. But, I had a nice and peaceful time while they were away and the high school graduate went to the beach with her friends, and got cleaned up after the party quite well. Plenty of leftovers from yesterday so I didn't even have to cook.
Back to work tomorrow, help.

*flutters in to greet new thread and wave goodbye to Muppet month*
*stops short at the sight of the Svens*
Oooooh, lookie!  
*has Sex on the Beach for refreshment*
(I looooove hot chocolate with rum - but it's not for a warm, sunny day, so at the moment I'll have a nice, light, chilled white wine...or something juicy, like the above. )
Hope everybody is having a good weekend!

I know that
technically
the Sesame Street characters are not 'THE' Muppets.. but is it true that 'Cookie Monster' is now 'Veggie Monster' and that there is no more 'Grouch' and that Bert & Ernie no longer live together?

Oooh boy! 
I had heard that the cookie monster wasn't allowed to have cookies anymore or create the impression that cookies were good...  - so, I could imagine you are right there, Rose. Looks like it's not just your neighbourhood where the mind-control are busy at work.

*sigh*
Well, I promised I was going to catch up but unfortunately, it's been a less than stellar day, which in turn made it into a less than stellar weekend . . .
It's gone. One moment of bad roads and bad judgement and one bay of the garage is hauntingly empty tonight . . .
Hubby called this afternoon . . . (I was puttering in the garden after church, he went to see our friends at a Show 'n Shine in St. Albert.)
"I just wrecked the car."
. . .
"the car"
of course, was our beautiful 2008 Mustang Convertible . . .
Y'know, that's the phone call I never want to get . . . thank the Good Lord in Heaven that he's alright. THAT of course was my first question "I don't give a crap about the car, are you all right!!!!" And I had to ask twice!! Sheesh, men. But he got off lightly; a bruised thigh and he says, his lowest rib around back is hurting a little bit but no gashes, no blood, no breaks. I made him promise to go to a Medi Center tomorrow and get checked out anyway. He could have a bruised spleen or any number of minor internal injuries . . .
But the car is a
write off
. Damn. Our beautiful baby is gone . . . just like that.
The Lord giveth . . . and the Lord taketh away.
And thank you Jesus that you took the car and not my hubby . . .

OH NO!!!!! Scribbles! You okay? In shock I am guessing. Wish I could be there for real and hug you.
I'm glad Mr Scribbles is okay. Looks like it could have been worse. Hope he doesn't have anything wrong internally. Poor car. Will insurance cover the cost of a replacement?

Thanks Dubs and nl.
I'm okay. I still can't believe she's gone, but alas, it's true. And yes, we took out a "replacement cost" clause on our insurance, so they will replace the car since it's totally written off.
I think hubby feels far worse, he had done a lot of work on the car already to make it "personal". You can see in the picture, he blacked out the back panel and darkened the taillights, then mounted the old-style raised Mustang lettering across the trunk. The non-visible things were a cold-air intake, a performance tune and MagnaFlow exhaust with bigger chrome pipes. All things he can re-do when and if we get another, but you know how it is . . . he's devastated. But right now, our biggest concern is the two tickets he got. If they're high demerits, they could cause him serious trouble with his work . . .
But as I mentioned before, I'm just so grateful to God that hubby is alive and the other good thing is that it was a single-vehicle crash. He didn't hit anyone, nor did anyone hit him. It was all bad road conditions and well, maybe a bit of a heavy foot . . . But thank heaven no one else was involved or seriously hurt.
Well, except for that poor tree. But I'm pretty sure the tree has already forgotten about it . . .

oOOO. Too bad about the car, Scribbles. Glad the hubby is okay. Thank goodness for things like seatbelts and airbags.
Testosterone and fast cars are not a good combination.
As for Lee~...... we could ground her. But then she'd be here all the time.
So we won't ground her.

Um...right. Star Trek Captain month. Must go fix some things.....

Aw, Scribbles! *sniffle* *sniffle* And she was such a beautiful baby too!
I'm glad your hubby is okay, though. I mean...it could have really been bad.
On another note...I saw Sesame Street DVDs at Sam's Club a couple weeks ago and was soooooo tempted to get a set.
Edited because, for some reason, I got Dubs and Scribbles mixed up!

Scribbles, I, too, am glad your hubby is well and I do hope he does go see a doc. Looking at that picture, he took quite a bumping.
The poor baby...
She was a good car.
She gave you some of the greatest times of your lives.
May she rest in peace.
Maybe we should speak with Treebeard about wandering Ents in Canada.
Take care...
