Crazy week

Boo got hold of my knitting. Don't worry, I take those nasty needles away from her pretty quick!
But I could not resist taking a few shots.

Yesterday we had a lovely visit from my blog friend who writes "Higher Ground"(Tiding)
We had a wonderful time just sitting around the table chatting. Wheelie didn't disappear to the other room either, so he must have enjoyed it too.
It's so nice to talk with an adult once in a while.
So, thanks Joann, for taking the trouble to drive all the way up here and not getting lost. (It usually takes people a few phone calls and wrong turns the first time they try to find us, and that includes any delivery person, FedEx and UPS, although the last two know by now where we are.)

So PH's restaurant is closing it's doors tonight. His boss, the owner, doesn't seem to care much as he was never a hands on owner to begin with, but now just sits around with his customers getting drunk.
What a shame.
This restaurant closing phenomena is getting ridiculous in this town. Within the time span of one week I've heard of three of them closing shortly. One of them a brand new Fudruckers. Also a lovely little place called The Tea garden, which offers typical "English High Tea"
Bugs took me there once for Mother's Day.
To see if they can drum up some much needed business, Bugs' boss decided to 'open' on Sundays. Tomorrow being the first 'Sunday'

She will be working late tonight in order to get the new menus going and to prep.
Tomorrow she is going in at eight to get ready. She told me that one recipe takes 3 hours to prepare.
Knowing how absolutely dead Cartersville is on Sundays, I don't see how they can even afford to open their doors, even for 'just lunch' but we'll see.
In the meantime guess who's baby sitting, yes she's even staying overnight, no use dragging her out late tonight only to come back at seven thirty.

So much for my weekends back.

I know, I shouldn't be bitching about it. I'm tired though. I never did get around writing my Christmas cards. That's a first.

So we'll just go with the flow.

Gas was $1.62 this afternoon.
It has been raining 24 hours straight and will be again tomorrow and Monday. They are even whispering: snow! Wow!

And th th th th that's all folks!!

I'm going to put my feet up. Nothing on TV, so I'll read.

SGMKJ!
