MEET JUDE, THE COMPLETE MAROON!

Ever do stuff that when you realize you did it, you just look at yourself in the mirror and shake your head at yourself? I went to bed last night forgetting to wash my makeup off, and woke up this morning looking like a racoon, lol. I don't wear much makeup, some eye makeup and blush, lipstick....... anyway the lipstick had long since worn off by the time I went to bed, but not the mascara! So it was down under my eyes and I truly looked like somebody needing to head off to emergency, lol. Usually once I get home I'm itching to scrub my face clean......but for some reason last night it wasn't bugging me and I just forgot all about it. And that's not a good thing with skin my age. Let's just say, I'm at that "I don't give a shit anymore" age, where I feel like I can speak my mind more and not be the mousy little thing I sometimes used to be. Heh Heh..... I'm kinda enjoying that, actually. And if you don't like it ~~ EAT MY SHORTS! See? Like me so far? Anyway I digress.........I was talking about my remaining few mentalpausal brain cells wasn't I. Wasn't I???? LOL

So sister Pammie and I are heading out this afteroon to a big flea market. It's in a humongous building and is open on weekends. Normally both of us (me from being just old, lol......and her from fibromyalgia) are just too tired to do that AND get out weekends for groceries, so when we have a long weekend, we generally try to get to the flea market. I'm not looking for anything in particular, perhaps some teacups and saucers, seeing as my old stoneware ones are history and the new melamine set didn't come with them. I don't normally use them, I like my tea in a MANLY MUG.......LOL But I like to have a few on hand for when I do teacup readings. So I'll look for something inexpensive, perhaps in Corelle as they are so lightweight. We're always on the lookout for Corning Ware "Cornflower" pattern stuff for Pammie, as she collects it. So anytime we see something that's a different piece than she has (and she has lots now) she considers getting it as long as the price is okay and the piece is in good shape. Now I will also tell you that "if the price is right" means: that it is not over priced, and also that Pammie isn't the sort that can "haggle" over prices, whereas I AM. heh heh See? I never used to be until I hit the "I don't give a shit anymore" age. So if she likes something, I'll pick it up and haggle the price for her. Aren't I a good big sis??? I think I've helped her save a few bucks here and there and that's good, because she's the one who drives, so she pays for the gas and I get free rides! **thanks Pammie ~ smoochies and hugs**

So I put in my two hours at the office yesterday morning ~ of course Fridays are always a day off for me (I work Mon.-Wed.) but I had to go in to do the bank deposit as the other two ladies who know how to do it were off. Anyway, it's something that I'm fairly new at, I know how to do it well enough, however where I run into problems is when it doesn't balance (not often) and knowing how to fix it! So I get in there, and lo and behold there are notes everywhere!! Problems with our Moneris (interac) machines the day before, OY. Plus there was a slight problem with the cashroom deposit (for the Insurance Agency) which we figured out with the help of the Ins. manager. (he basically said yes, fix it like we thought we should) Long story short, I was proud of myself for figuring everything out and STILL got it done in 2 hours! So I was outta there at 11 a.m. and went home to bed for a nap. (I only got 3 hrs. sleep the night before) Out of all the many things I do in the cashroom, doing this deposit will be the only thing that I still do when we move and my job changes. (yes....I'm still mourning that one...)

Well I'm off to my vanity table to apply some warpaint and get dressed to go out flea market shopping. For any of you on a long weekend, have a good long weekend! For the rest of you, have a good normal weekend! LOL May the wind always be at your back, the sunshine on your face, and may PEACE be yours ~~~ until next time,

Love Jude

AND NOW..... ANOTHER HORROR SCOPE BY GYPSY JUDLES
"With Saturn aligning with the stars in Orion this week, all signs should buy an expensive car. Watch for falling debris from above if you are a Cancer or Virgo. Maybe it's just dandruff from that cheap shampoo you use. Because Libra is sitting in the cusp of Venus right now, this is a good time for all signs to ignore Libras. They are far too highly opinionated and stuck-up anyway, and it would be fun to watch them squirm. If you are thinking of partying tonight and you are a Taurus, keep the imbibing to a minumum, as everyone knows you get far too promiscuous with a drop of vino in you. Have some restraint for a change, geez. All babies born on this day will have blue hair. No. Eyes."
