The sun got up before me today. That's fine! To bed late, cold in bed -- turned on the mattress heater thing, then to sleep. Got up to cold inside! :rolleyes: It's 68 in here but, only 50 out "there". ;) Guess Fall is truly here. They say a high of 58 or so. OK...60's all week....time for the long sleeves to come out. Not time for the heat but, long pants & shirt sleeves. Just crisp when you jump out of bed! :D =D

My DD has advised me she is going to go "back to school" by retraining for another type job. Looking into medical billing. :idunno Right now she can get some grants to pay for it as single parent, limited income and all that stuff. GO for it! Her almost MIL has done it for years, from home. Guess that is also a plus, the "from home" portion. Nice. I'm looking at "from home" too....retirement! :lol: Seems we can both graduate about the same time. :caf

This weekend I hope to work out the timer & light in the coops stuff. And with the colder temps, a kick to get all the "winterizing" complete! Pull heated tubs, check them out, look at all pipe insulations, etc. Time consuming but absolutely necessary. So that's my goal for next couple weeks. And Fall clean up time is right around the bend. Foliage dies and you "find" stuff. :hide

My demo sampling days are getting good now -- gotta entice those hungry shoppers to buy! This time of year we start with the coffees, hot cinnamon rolls, apples, hot teas, cookies, heated dips, hot wings; then go into hams, steamed veggies, lot of appetizers, wines & beers. Yeah, tasty time of year! :D That's how I spend most Fri, Sat & Sun afternoons -- it's a job.

I need to get ready to go to work. You all enjoy your day :clap

Ahh..it's you...you're that person.
Those people do NOT want me to come around their table and sample the offerings.

And why? You'd be eating all of their samples?:D
No. I wait till several others are gathered around, then I reach in & take a sample, make a :sick :eek: face, cover my mouth, feign gagging and gastric distress and hurry off toward the restrooms.
The sample cookers are usually not happy.
(Dunno why. I was born with a sunny disposition..most people seem to like it)

We kept the 2 year old last night. Mom had to be out of town, Dad didn't think he could handle all 3 by himself, so they asked us to keep the little one. She was a live wire and finally went to sleep at 9:30 and up before 5 AM. I took her to day care. Papaw and Carson (puppy) are both in the recliner sound asleep-worn out from entertaining a 2 year old. LOL
