When I recently ran out of computer printer ink. I usually keep a back-up cartridge but I forgot to get one and needed to print something so I had to get one immediately.

My dog couldn't find his favorite chew toy. I looked everywhere and couldn't find it either. Then I looked up and it was sitting on top of a shelf I had apparently set in on, which I had forgotten about...lol.

Oh my goodness -- I'm moved into my new house! A beautiful day in the NV desert, with temps in the mid-70s.

Today's Question(s):

What was your "why did I wait till the last minute" moment ? I'm a planner, so I tend to work ahead most of the time, but the last time I said "Wow how did I miss that" was when I realized that I'd emptied the refrigerator at my rented house and forgot to empty the freezer! Have to go back to the house anyway to give it a final clean (have it through the end of November), so I'll get the freezer contents then.

I am really really trying to get my unpacking done today!

On average,how many hours a day are you up ? 16

Today in History:
1940 - Green Bay Packers become 1st NFL team to travel by plane. My team!

Word of the Day:
idioglossia \ id-ee-uh-GLOS-ee-uh \ , noun;
1. A private form of speech invented by one child or by children who are in close contact, as twins. I didn't know there was a word for this! Very interesting phenomenon.

Today is:
National Baklava Day Yum
Homemade Bread Day Mmmmmm
Take a Hike Day I'm sorry I offended you.
School Pride Day

OK... Back to unpacking! Have a wonderful day all.
