Friday Fragments: Thanks, I Guess.

Welcome to Friday Fragments.

**********

As you know, this past Saturday was our local Walk to Remember. As I am on the committee, I was super busy last week getting everything ready for the event. I barely made it home after the walk was finished before I had a huge crashburn. I slept and lazed around most of the rest of the weekend, and I have yet to regain my energy!

I don't know what to subtitle my Friday Fragments anymore!

I'm now atwitter on Twitter!
Find me @waaoms or see my updates on the sidebar of my blog.

If you are a twit, have you any advice?!

This week I discovered that there is a new version of Let's Make A Deal with Wayne Brady as the host. Now, the original Let's Make A Deal was well before my time, so I have never watched it. Only heard about it. It's fun! (Plus Wayne Brady is not too hard on the eyes either!)

Last week, I noticed my brakes were making all kinds of noise. Groannnnnn... Screeeeecchhhh. I took the car in and turns out my brakes were "metal-to-metal", and in all, it cost me 900 dollars to get my oil changed and my brakes fixed. Yowza! 200 of that was just for "inspection and labor" and another 100 of that was for taxes!

**********

I need a job.... but I can't bring myself to look for one...

**********

I keep going back and forth about my trip later this month. I know I can't really afford it (especially after those brakes!) But it may very well be my only chance to go. I haven't bought a plane ticket yet... better get to that this weekend if I'm going to go. And find someone to take care of my dog. (on the upside, my hotel room is booked)

Speaking of trips, Patches the Bear will be on his way sometime this week. He's a little behind schedule but he's heading out. Next week one day I will post a Mr. Linky for all of you who would like to take part of this and have a visit with Patches.

This weekend is Canadian Thanksgiving. *sigh* It's hard to know what to be thankful for.

Here's a photo of our last Thanksgiving at home (2007)



I originally posted this photo HERE.

One year ago this week, my husband ended up in the hospital for what turned out to be the rest of his life.

*********

10 years ago this week, my husband and I started (unofficially) dating. I say unofficially because we were "just friends" and didn't admit, even to ourselves, that we were becoming anything more. I remember exactly when because my friend had a baby that week and I went "home" for Thanksgiving early so I could meet the baby. After I left the hospital, I didn't feel like going to my mom's house so I went to see my friend who I hadn't seen in a long time, who later became my husband.

And did I mention my daughter was due in October?

**********

I miss my family.

Apparently, I'm Weird.

It's cold here. I think we had exactly 3 days of summer this year. So much for Global "warming". It's supposed to snow this weekend.

**********

I'm still accepting questions for my most recent segment of Ask Me. So, don't be shy. Ask me!

************

I'm still working on the project I showed you teased you about HERE. Hopefully, I'll get it done this weekend. I'm anxious to show you what it is!

Well, hope you all have a great weekend. But first, check out the Friday Funny below:
