Wednesday Woo-Flop, I'm Tired.

Well, I almost didn't woo-hoo today. It was kind of a crapper of a day (no, this is not a reference to my toilet adventures) and I'm just feeling a little overwhelmed with many, many, many things. Ah, but if one can still find joy and laugh, that is half the battle. So here we go, better late than never!

Woo-hoo that I caught the yard on fire today - and got it put out before anything disastrous happened. As you might guess, I am in the drought area and I didn't listen to reason or my husband and somehow, after ten minutes of watching my trash burn (that's how we handle our trash here at Chez Brown, burn or recycle everything), I thought it was fine and came inside. Ah so, it was not so.

My daughter came flying downstairs screaming, "Mom, the whole yard's on fire!" - which was not true, but sent mad panic through every fiber of my being until I saw it for myself. It was only a small section, but by God's grace and mercy I got it put out quickly and with little fanfare.

My husband is embarrassed of the "evidence" and has instructed me to "take care of it" tomorrow. This sounds like a bad Mafia scene. It could have looked like a bad Mafia scene, too, because I nearly parked a car right where the fire burned, and the car would have caught fire and exploded very dramatically, I'm sure, because that is my luck, that's why.

We ran out of water (we're on a well) as I sprayed the last of the smoking grass. Woo-Hoo that it was just enough ;0)

Woo-Hoo that my numbers here at Everyday Underwear continue to rise and that I have the most wonderful followers! This week, I tweaked the Top Followers widget and made it a little more difficult for you to get top billing. It is now counting comments from all time, not just the last 30 days. So if you're going to be top dog and highlighted weekly, you're going to have to comment and interact often with posts. Glorifying this week's queens and kings:
Did you make the cut? Some of my favorite peeps are on this list! I loves ya, peeps! Two men on the list this week - go testosterone! Some competition for you, ladies!

Woo-Hoo that I am surviving this exhaustion of just being too dang busy. It's a good problem to have, but I'm tired. I've taken on a job helping care for an elderly neighbor of my in-laws' and it is too much time out of my week, even though I am happy to take on the work. It is temporary, so that is the good thing. I love the lady to pieces, but my schedule was already too busy. We sacrifice for those we care about and that is good.

I think I have my virus problems (computer, not funky rash) fixed. Please remember to alert me if you see any spam from me - unless it is in a can and comes by snail mail, then I might have done it on purpose. Probably not, but you never know about me and my weird sense of humor. Potted meat-stuffs just could be in my humor range, I'm not sure.

I also think I've put a stop to my blog trying to post a spam link. I'm swimming in a sea of new passwords and no living being can copy anything off my blog without my permission, not even me! Now that's security when you have to go and lock your own self out of being able to do harm.


Woo-skkjxkjfjdiadlksdf.....zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. Sorry! I fell asleep on the keyboard there for a second. G'nite, friends! It's time to rest this weary head.

  2. How does one 'get rid of the evidence' of a little grass fire during a drought? Tough one, eh?


    But you know what they say - "If you want to get something done, ask a busy person to do it." You dear, are that person!

  3. Let's see - fire in the yard, running out of water, computer hackers, caregiver for an elderly person, did I miss anything? Hmmmmm....I think STRESSED may be the word you are looking for. Stress makes me tired!

  6. Yes, Barbara, you missed my kids' social lives and cheer practices causing me umpteen trips to town (and I live 15 minutes out of town) and church twice a week, which is also 15 minutes away. Thank goodness for church, though, because without God's help and getting my regular doses of Jesus Juice, I am not sure I would retain my sense of humor. Ha ha!

  7. Well, I actually did it. My husband wanted me to mow over it with the push mower/bagger, but I just raked it instead and now you can hardly even tell it happened. I would make a great mob wife.

  8. Trying, Lisa. The good thing is that when my head hits the pillow, I'm normally out like a light.

  9. I thought I was the only one who had 'Woo-Flops'. Not so much? *grin* You have noting on my husband, who is known for miles around as being the guy to light anything and everything on fire. Mostly accidentally. *sigh* Thanks for the giggles today - needed that!
