I slept for 12 hours.
Went to bed at 10:30 and woke up same, same.
I had no idea how short I had been running.
Family stuffs to welcome home the Mom here today. Maybe going out for lunch or sumthin.
I have a big porky roast thawing for dinner tonight.

I have to go into work today, but only for 5 hours. I'm doing laundry right now and I've already been to church this morning.
A nice, relaxing Sunday. :)

Cool and cloudy....the predicted sunny Sunday....looks like it could rain.
M made a nice breakfast...ham, eggs and biscuits. I've been catching up on reading here and at milnet. Thinking about putting on a pot of chili afterwhile. And I'm determined to finish my book today. Also need to run and do a couple of driveby shootings for 2 reports due by 10 in the morning.

I went to the $5 Chinese buffet again, but they were out of spicy pork. Dammit. That's the only reason I go there.

I spent all day at the dance studio, doing a Basket Bingo fundraiser (never heard of one before I moved here, but they are crazy about them). Got there at 9:30, and just got home about 7:00. Poor kiddo is still there, as she had class with the "master choreographer" from 4-whenever. They are setting their dance for their Spring conference.
Tired.

That's what I said when I first heard about it!
It a Bingo thing...the prizes are Longaberger Baskets (Which I guess are serious collectors items around this area?) filled with various stuff, door prizes, etc. People pay friggin $20 a ticket to come play for 20 baskets, plus we raffle more of them off, have concessions, and thing called King Tut (people pay for more chances to win up to 5 baskets). People around here are insane about these things!

Interesting! I had never heard of them. I understand though why they are willing to pay $20 to win one. That's a bargain compared to some of the prices listed at the website. They must be some sturdy baskets. At least I hope so!
You learn something new everyday...

I don't understand the fascination with Longaberger baskets either, but to collectors, they are priceless!
When a particular style is discontinued, the value of them gets even higher.
