APRES TURKEY DAY

Well it's the day after ("apres", oui oui!) all the turkey dinners in the States, and what I wanna know is ~~ how did everyone enjoy it?? I'm watering at the mouth just thinking about my next turkey dinner at Christmas..... YUM! I tried soooo hard yesterday to get an audio Thanksgiving message on here, joined the Audioblogger thingy and everything, made a message....waited all day...never showed up on my blog, tried another one.....waited.....nothing. So then I get the bright idea to go read up the audioblog FAQ and lo and behold!!! Looks like it's only usable from the States so far....... AARRGGHH! Yup, it's those simple little things like details that'll get me every time! Sheesh!

Well peeps I just got back from my dentist appointment with the by now famous Dr. I.L. Drillya, and he did the final filling on the root canal which is doing just fine, and he was supposed to do either a filling or root canal on another molar. Well. Turns out it definitely needs a root canal, and really I've lost so many molars on that side that I guess I don't want this one yanked afterall. So we compromised. I told him after my body gets back to completely normal again that I'd come back for a root canal, and only go on the antibiotics IF and only IF it gets infected, like this one did. So I'm off the hook for now. And no, that's NOT his real name ~~ and if you really thought it was, then I wanna hug ya cuz you must be mentalpausal like ME. (you poor thing)

What a gorgeous autumn day to go for a walk!!! The sun is beating down and the breeze is stiff but refreshing, and it's just SO ALIVE out there! I almost wished it would have taken me longer to walk to the dentist and back, it was lovely. I could have kept wandering around my neighbourhood, but ~~ LAUNDRY AWAITS ME! A woman's work is never done, the saying says, and it's true isn't it? I just got it started, but I still have to go strip the bed yet too. (no Debs, "strip the bed", not "strip ON the bed") Savin' that for later! LOL **go Judy, go Judy**
(hmmmm, "Pour Some Sugar On Me" could come in handy here)
Def Leppard famous song in strip bars if anybody out there doesn't know the song ~ not that they wrote it for that purpose!!! It's just a really really fun song for the fans to sing along to at their shows.

Okay! What's next?? I'm really looking forward to the wedding reception here next Saturday for my sweet friend Monica, who just married her soul-mate Shane on the beach in Oahu. You may remember I was telling you about a wedding gift that I made for them, and once this reception has come and gone I'll try my hand at posting a pic of the gift on here. I've been to Maui 4 times on holidays through the years and it's my favourite place on earth! (not that I've been all over the earth or anything.... ..... I should be so lucky) but you know what I mean. Back in 1977, 1978, 1984 and 1989 I holiday'd there and fell in love with the place. It's not as commercialized nor as crowded as Oahu, particularly I guess Waikiki and Honolulu, but it has the night life if you want it and the party bars even through the day. But the beaches go on forever and there are lots of them that you may say "hi" walking by someone every 5 or 10 minutes. It's absolutely lovely. And the people are so friendly and laid back. And if you EVER go to Maui, you simply must go to Lahaina (old whaling village) and browse through the gazillions of little shops on the water front. Dammit now I wanna go back there..... couldn't take the heat anymore though. In my hot-flashing lifestyle, I'd probably do better sunbathing on a glacier up in the North Pole regions...... aaahhhh... **sizzle sizzle** Could cause global flooding though, yikes!

Well peeps I guess that's about it for this time. I hope you are all having turkey leftovers and sammiches now to your heart's content! Be good to yourselves and to others ~~~ Until next time, PEACE!!
