Monday Monday

Yeah MONDAY! (I'm trying to psych myself up here.) I should be ready for it - I didn't do anything this weekend to have me tired. And having a job to go to is a good thing. Still, when it is raining and cold it is so hard to drag oneself out of bed especially when I had one dog to the left of me and one to right, there I was stuck in the middle again. And oh, so warm and cozy.

When I stepped outside the rain slapped me in the face and it was all I could do not to do an about face!

Yesterday I didn't even read - I was that lazy. I made stuff for my work lunches chicken salad and chicken stew (sort of I made it up but it is delish!) because I was too lazy to get dressed and go to the grocery and that was what was in the freezer and fridge ...apples, red and yellow peppers, raw jalpeno, onion, crushed pecans, cilantro and chicken. The apples, pecans and a little jalpeno made the salad and the rest made the stew/soup. (My husband said the soup was so good he would like to just take a straw and drink it.)

I stayed in my jammies and laid around barely washing clothes or anything. I did decide to change my hair color. I'm no longer blonde. Now I am sort of, well, dishwater blonde? Not really happy with it but I'm going to live in it for a month and see how it goes.

I was so happy to see that the voting was rocking on in Iraq. (In your FACE Kennedy - you blow hard) One guy was voting and said he thought they should put up a statue of President Bush in Iraq! (So THERE Kerry!) And another said when he dipped his finger in the blue ink to vote, it was like sticking his finger in the eyes of the terrorists. I thought that was cool. I'm praying they keep moving forward. Despite people over here who think they are so smart and know what the Iraqis want. They seem to know what they want to me - and that is freedom. Oh, and I laughed out loud when Dan "Blather" was reporting and said that it was going really well. I thought he was going to choke having to admit that. And then the guy on the news asks him again and Danny boy had to say "That's the only way it can be assessed." Did that mean he had tried and just couldn't come up with a different spin! I was so tickled.

I did manage to change the sheets and cat liter. Really I was a lump, until supper, when I went out with the husband for Tortas and margaritas.

It was wonderful.

So you see, no reason not to be pumped and ready for the week.

Still, it's Monday.
