I can't believe I did it AGAIN!!!!

Last night at 9:00 I went into my bedroom and settled in on my couch. I wanted to watch some tv before going to bed. I started flipping through the channels at channel 4, as that is our starting point here in Jax. I got to channel 7 and stopped to watch a PBS special on....sandwiches. They were going all around the country showing different restaurants and the various types of sandwiches that are local favorites. It was very interesting and fun to watch. Dh even came in and watched it with me. However....

When it was over I continued flipping and got to channel 25 (abc), and noticed Boston Legal was on....which set off bells in my head. "Hmmm, isn't there something I usually watch before this? Ohmygosh-I-FORGOT-TO-WATCH-DESPERATE-HOUSEWIVES-AGAIN!!!!" I can't believe I forgot....again. What is WRONG with me? I watched the AOL recap this morning at 6:30, which was an entire 4 minutes and 10 seconds. I suppose it covered most of the important points but....what did Zach do or say to Julie that she did not think was funny at the pool party? Anyone want to recap for me? If so, send me an e-mail!!!! I'm desperate....

Still no decision on the vacuum. I almost bid on an Oreck last night....almost. I know if I buy anything else I'll be sorry in a week....so why don't I just do it? I don't know. This is driving me nuts. I've decided against the Dyson, as there are too many conflicting reports about the suction power, and frankly, I think a bagless vacuum is not as sturdy or clean as the bagged kind. (I have a backup bagless).

It is so nice out this morning. I walked to the bus stop with wee one and the birds are singing, the air is clean and fresh. It makes me want to take a walk, or work on the yard....that will be happening soon enough. We are going to get the back yard into pristine shape this year. That is my goal. We are going to re-sod and put in rock instead of that cruddy mulch. I love the mulch but with the amount of humidity we have here, it rots away and in the spring all you have left is dried up bits. We are spending $200 a year just on mulch! This year we are getting rock. I want the red colored stuff. I'm also starting to plan what I want to plant as well. I want COLOR this year, and lots of it. I can't wait to get started!

Okay, I'm off to start my day....sans kids. Yes, my children have school today....they are having a "hurricane make-up day". LOL....never thought I'd be saying that! Have a good one!

I can't keep the kids on that show straight, but I think Zack is the one that has the sister that was killed, right?  Anyway, the other boy, Bree's son, was kind of making fun of him at the pool party, and Zack said to Julie that he could take care of him cuz he still had his mother's gun.  This came after Julie's mother had told her that she thought Zack was dangerous, i believe.  It was a good one, you'll have to watch the rerun.  Isn't it still on Saturday nite?  Hope I helped a little.

Well you know we went ot red rock around our house too. It lasts for ever and the mulch can cuase termites. So we went to rock. You also dont have to replace it. We are working on our back yard this year due to the pool will be leaving and adding hte back door. Oh yeah did they show on the recap aout the two gay boys and the part where that boy who wanted to be gardner told Eva that he thought he was gay. then after the party jluies mom was looking for her and ran into the gay boys in the pool thinking they were julie and a boy. AND then when the condom bree found was not her hub's or her sons it was her daughters!!!!!!! she was goinna sleep with the gardner. Then bree that was hilarious she asked him over and said I Hear you wnat to take my daughters viginity and the boy agreed to dump her daughter cuase he loved someone else. Then even went over and kiss the room mate of his who wanted ot be her gardner for free. Then eva at the end was so sweet to her hubby. said she had been broke but never poor its a state of mind. They are selling htier house. I set my vcr to tape in case I forget to watch or cant. It automatically tapes it. But I am thinking of getting the statelite that tapes and everything Lori

Please just go to sears and they should let you test out all the vacuums. Bring some dirt with you and sand from your yard. LOL I can't believe you missed DH uhhhhhgan. I never miss it. Thank god. It's great. Brees kid teased the crazy kid and when he walked away the crazy kid said to the girl..."I know why my mom used her gun" he made like he had a gun in his fingers and popped it off at that kid. Then brees son was seen screwing around with Johns roomate. Yes he's gay but he yelled out, "I'm not gay" When the ditsy mother went to see if her daughter was there at the party. I can't remember a name if you paid me sorry.

My kids had some hurricane makeup days on SATURDAY when we lived in NC.  (DH and I LOVED IT!!! heheheeh)

I can't believe your children have to go to school on a national holiday!!!  Even if it's a makeup day, that just doesn't seem right.  But, then again, it is Florida and you guys make your own rules their re: school.  You watched a show on sandwiches instead of DH?!?!  That is too funny!!!!  I still don't watch DH, probably the only woman in her 30's in America that doesn't!  Sorry to hear about the indecision re: the vacuum.  It will come to you though, like a vision, and all will seem right in the world again.  LOL!
Hugs and love, Lisa

LOL, I've been following your vacuum dilemna, well sort of.  I am not as enthusiastic as you, but I was inspired to respond today becuz I did get a bagless Kenmore and I HATE IT.  I had a Kenmore cannister for 12 years and I loved it.  2 years ago I got the upright, beltless, bagless self propelled kenmore and it's a piece of crap.  It was over 300 bucks and was so not worth it.  So there is my .02 cents.  I watched DH last night but was only half paying attention so I can't give you a recap.  Boston Legal was really good as usual though.   Pamela

LOL, you sound like a desperate  housewife, wanting the 411 on desperate housewives.  Wish I could help, but, I'm just as desperate. I got side tracked and forgot it was Sunday.  Keep us updated on the vacuum decision.
