Rave: Pavillion seats for Annie Lennox and Sting tonight! Major Annie fan here, and she doesn't perform often, so this is a big rave. We are making a TRAVEL adventure out of it, staying out close to the concert area overnight.

Rave: I second the rave for summer, esp. flowers blooming all over my gardens.

Rant: Poison ivy or oak, always get it every summer and itching like a dog. today. I wish the home remedies/preventions worked for me, but they don't.

Rave: It's almost OBX beach vacation time!

Rave: It's Friday!
Rant: Weekend will be too short, as usual.
emd: We saw Sting 2-3 years ago. What a great show. He sounds even better in person. And I'm sure Annie Lennox is equally great. Enjoy!

Rant: NC summer is setting in, with 95 degrees and humidity. Locusts sound like rattlers all day long.

Rave: it's still getting down to 70 at night so mornings are still fresh, won't be in a few weeks.

Rant: Dear son departed for other coast on Tues., won't be back 'til Christmas.

Rave: tickets for co-old-fogey spouse and me to Chicago and Earth Wind Fire concert.

I have sandwiches wrapped in PITA all the time.... so wot's the problem??? ;-)

Rant/Rave: Was supposed to leave for Niagara trip w/son & hockey team yesterday. He still went, but I'm home on bedrest with a blood clot and have to go for bloodwork daily, yuck. He called to say he's having a good time. I was SO looking forward to this trip, but I guess everything happens for a reason, at least that's what I keep telling myself.

Rave: I can't wait to hear the fun things about his trip when he returns on Sunday!

Rave: Just bought 2 pre-sale tix to Kenney Chesney in Aug., yeehaw!

Happy Anniversary Statia! May you have many many more!

Have a great weekend everyone!

Got a big RANT today...My mother, who basically has nothing anyway, had an emergency stay at the hospital a few months ago. Turns out she is a Type 1 diabetic and didn't know until she got bery ill. She was in between insurances with a change of jobs. The hospital bill has now put her in bankruptcy. This should NOT freakin happen. Where is my one way ticket out of this country? I'm very upset.

RANT: Little Miss Riley slept through the night last night...from 6 pm to 6 am. Excellent!
