library

I hardly ever have my camera during the day anymore. S is taking photography and we are "sharing" which means she takes it to school every day in her purse and if I think to ask her for it I can use it on weekends. This means most of the time I have to sneak Beloved's out of his camera case, carefully take a quick photo (if we are at home), down load it, put it back in it's case and move on with the day. Very tedious. Today S forgot hers my camera so I grabbed it when we headed out the door to the library. The library was very fun, when we finally got there. Lu, not-dog (the only member of the herd that ever leaves the house to go on errands) and I went to the library. We got there a little after 10 only to be informed that the library changed its hours and wouldn't open until 11. We decided to spend some time at Kohl's and drove over and browsed. So many cute things!! We went back an hour later and it still wasn't open. This time I got out of the car and went to read the sign, open at noon. They just changed their hours last week. So we went to Chick fil-a and played. Then at noon went back. Finally. Had a good library visit, found some books, did some puzzles. The End.

I should also mention that last night Beloved and I watched the debate, of course, and it took a really long time, again of course, why?? you ask. Well we watch about a minute and he pauses to rant and rave and rip out his hair. Then we continue. Over and over. Beloved is very frustrated. I don't care as much. I have a hard time getting excited over McCain, although I'll vote for him. He just looks half dead and who is dressing him? Nobama has much better "people" cuz his tie was nice. I'm worried about what will happen to our country under a socialist regime, sadly McCain makes some good points but is unable to hit it out of the park so he will probably lose and we will probably find out. I guess we'll see.

oh yeah, one more thing. Last night brother was reading a book about walruses to me and he said "mom you are like an ancient walrus". (Thanks son, that's the best compliment I've ever gotten: said silently in my head), out loud : Oh? Yep, you are 40 and that's how old they live. OH! Okay. Come on, being compared to a walrus is a little too fluffy even for me.
Did you know that walruses live in separate herds, boys in one and girls in the other. When a male calf is born he lives with his mom until he's weaned then off to the boy team he goes. Brother thought that was awful and told me "if I was a walrus, I'd always live with you" (the best compliment for real :) )
