Ordinary Joe: What I Did TodayPosted: Nov 30, 07 8:39amEven if the earth did not move under your feet today, tell us what you accomplished. To kick us off, my day has been 11 1/2 hours long and I know I have peaked. I will not be any brighter than my last communique here today. I called my daughter (we never talk on the phone), but I was worried about an injury she had and hasn't updated me on. DH is spending the day in the city with a friend, so it is a selfish day spent primarily on me and vegetating and renewal if that isn't an oxy moron. I did run to the store and got a big buy on clearance Brussels sprouts and turkey bacon. A few items that lightened my wallet by 20 bucks, but can anyone really resist a bargain? I walked away all fuzzy feeling. Next? Connect?  Huh? What Say You? 76 Comments

Please tell me there's no such thing... but then, for me it would be hard to find enough money to make me eat them. The mind reels. Or perhaps it's just the lack of sleep. My day started after a refreshing three hours of sleep... my own fault since I stayed up FAR too late talking to a college friend. Totally and completely worth it... so today's big accomplishment is making it to work and remaining upright. Yay me!

I won't explain clearance. My husband will be so thrilled at this purchase (his favorite veggie) that he will not be ticked off at the tire marks on the lawn I brought in.
