I'll miss that hip hop version of "Forever Young" on the pepsi commercial. I've only listened to it about 10.000 times. Actually. I'll never drink pepsi again.

Oh Py.. if I could still wear a tube top proudly...I'd buy two, one for each of these flappy old lady upper arms. I really wouldn't care what season it was.

;)

(And if you think I'm serious, you're wrong. My arm's don't flap. I'm joking! They jiggle just like everyone else.)

What the heck is a Busker?

If I ever get interviewed for an on the street question, I am going to say I am a professional LJW commentor! That would be hilarious.

A book of verse, a jug of wine, a loaf of bread and thou beside me................... on the patio.

R_I~ I think you can still wear your tube tops after Labor Day as long as they're not white.

Also--as long as you stay indoors with the shades drawn whilst wearing them. Agreed, girls? Multi? Ronda?

This was the best summer I've ever spent in KS, due to the lack of excessive heat. Even in August, the fields were green and not scorched and dead.

And, while I don't miss school being out, per se, I do miss the luxury of not having to set the alarm clock.

Fall is my favorite season, so...not much. It was fine while it was here -- actually, this was better than most because the weather was more pleasant than usual -- but I'm happy fall is here.

Much better question. Thar be ducks in that sky. Cool mornings and cool evenings with Indian summer afternoons. And it is early Teal season. Football, even if momma says that the foosball is the devil's game.

Did Donna pass away? Disco will never be the same.

Oh, the season. It will be back in a couple hundred days whether I miss it or not.

Let's be a 'Positive Polly' and look on the bright side.

spending extra time with the kids and watching my lefty finally get to the stage where he could swim during swim lessons without looking like he was having a siezure.

I lettered the side of my riding mower, "I survived mowing season, 2009".

I have never mowed so much in my life! I think it rained every 4 days or so. Sick of it!!!! I am getting ready to spray Round-up on the gravel drive for the third time this year. (Can't seem to get Merrill out to my place. Must be busy pickin' weeds in town.)
