Greedy Girl

I have a funny story from yesterday at the ranch. I had an egg carton filled with 17 eggs, and I only needed one more egg to complete the carton.  I set this carton on the stove and went out to see if the chicken laid any more eggs. I was so excited to see 2 more eggs.  I headed back into the little rental house and found a huge mess to clean up. I must have used 1/4 a roll of paper towels to clean up this huge mess.  I don't know how those eggs fell off the stove. Isabelle said I should have cleaned up the mess with a dustpan, which would have been smart.

Random Musings

I remember being off track in the past and I was lucky to pick up the phone and call one of my sisters and they would always answer their phones, but now they have jobs, and are always working it seems.  This stinkin' working from home keeps my peeps busy. So now can't really call them, and I have to keep myself busy, but I don't want to do the work that I need to do. I feel guilty when I go off and have a day of fun, because I didn't work on the things that I need to complete.  I guess that problem is as old as time! I am off work and I want to have fun, and not do work that I never want to do.

I did manage to go to Yosemite for the first time ever last week.  Yellowstone is better, I can say without a doubt in every sense of the way of a national park.

I had a birthday last week and I decided to get myself a little something special.  I pooled all my birthday money and I bought a lovely turqouise, actually the color is adriatic, Kate Spade purse. This is my second major indulgence in the fancy purse area, and I don't know what has taken over my common sense. Last summer I bought a red purse designed by Michael Kors.  My desire is to have several purses to rotate through the typical year.  I have my brown western purse, my red purse, and now my summer fun new purse, perhaps I will add one more to my collection before I am done.
