The pool is closed!

*frowny face*

Guess that means I bounce and walk today.



So Grandma's card came today. This time I think I'm gonna hold onto the mula for a bit. ^^ Two other cool things is that she sent a couple of crockpot recipies she knows I love, and she also wrote a quick note that made me grin. Looks like I'm not the only one with a long memory, because she was telling me she was glad I started swimming again; and that it reminded her of when we had to go Speedo shopping my freshman year for JV swim team. XD. That was a good warm fuzzy for me.

My state tag for the car arrived today, so it promptly joined the inspection sticker, thus making me good for another year. I consider that a nice b-day present. :)

Both admin and the volunteers sent me a birthday card. I know that they send one out to everyone, but it still makes for good feelings.

And [livejournal.com profile] rebl1969? You're in trouble. I laughed for a good ten minutes. And if you think I'm throwing it out, you've got another thing coming. It and the note are getting framed, and when I'm famous with R for the novels we're writing, and I get interviewed, I'm going to make sure that's sitting right behind me, set up as suggested. *eg* (PS--Thank you. ^^)

Don't think I'll do it? Heh.

Note how the eyes follow you all around the room.

Hee!

Right now he is guarding my new age book collection (it was the only place where there was room to set him up and where he wasn't stuffed in a pile somewhere. ^^)

'Course, you realize I'll end up with a weird rep when I do this. *g*.

You'll need to send me a photo after you get him in a proper frame.

I will. ^^

I think I'll have to take him into Micheal's so that I can get a proper matting job done on it since I want to include the letter. I don't have the materials myself, and they're out of budget at the moment.

Hoo boy, that'll set you back a bit. It's flattering that you want to include the letter but if it were me I'd get the collage framed then tape the letter to the back of the frame. That way they're still together but it won't cost so much as having them framed side-by-each.

However, he's your present, soooooo.......

We'll see. ^^ if it's THAT much, I might break down and buy my own mat-cutter anyway. You know. In case I want to mat and frame my own work later on for selling. ^^

Sadness for the pool.

I took the dog for a short walk. He mostly enjoyed it, I think.

So, what's this present. And yours'll be late. But it's coming. :)

:D!

I'll have to show you. You'll giggle. So, scanner time when I get home.
