Monday in the mines

I finally did it. I have my own blog and no one in the world will ever read it. Why in the world have I done this? I could never keep a diary when I was a kid or a journal when that was all the rage. I just never have a lot to say - on paper, or screen. I have no problem talking to people - unless I just met them and then I spend all my time trying to remember what their name is. I'm never successful at remembering names. I used to have a lot of penpals (about 35). But now its down to about 4 and I owe all of them letters. I'm just not in the mood to write letters. I email my friend G. We talk a lot. She just retired and is really busy most of the time so the emails have slowed down a bit. M (dear hubby) and I went to the coast on Sat. We stopped and had a nice breakfast at the Indian casino and then continued on to the coast. The weather was beautiful with just a touch of Autumn in the air. We hit the outlet mall - along with EVERYONE else in the state. I thought all the shopping was done for a while. I think there were a lot of tourists and they were buying lots. Good for them. Leave you money here and then go home. We had a Governor who actually said that, years ago. Well, when your state has no sales tax, people like to come visit. Lets see - my interests are reading, exciting movies, crafts - knitting & crochet - crafts in general. I made a "Knitted Babe" over the weekend. She turned out really well and she is pretty funny looking. I'll have to put a pix of her on this page - whenever I figure out how to do that. Things have been fairly crazy at work today. Only 3 weeks til our vacation. We're going to visit our son & new wife in Indiana - oh and our "Grand-dog" Lucy. Our son D said October in Indiana is beautiful. We've not taken a vacation in 7 months so we are really ready for some time off. More later - Froglegs
