I have never tasted Mountain Dew, either...

Good morning! I'm hungry so I'm going to make me some eggs today. Maybe some bacon too. I don't want to get out of my nice, cozy, warm, comfy bed though. Guess I have to, boo.

I just took a decent nap. When I woke I thought it was a lot later than it is because it is so dark out. But it is just threatening more rain.

got this from jayhawk in email..

This year, July has 5 Fridays, 5 Saturdays and 5 Sundays. This happens

once every 823 years. This is called money bags.

Kinda interesting
...
This year we're going to experience four unusual dates.

1/1/11, 1/11/11, 11/1/11, 11/11/11 and that's not all

Take the last two digits of the year in which you were born - now add

the age you will be this year,

The results will be 111 for everyone in whole world

The last time that the end of the world 'came' people stopped paying bills, sold off belongings, etc to do what they wanted with their last few days. They ended up in a world of hurt and in some ways it was the end of their world as they knew it. Not mowing shouldn't have too much lasting repercussions, though. So go for it, Cindy.

Good afternoon! I'm waiting for my breakfast to digest and then I'm heading out for a run. I got a lot of errands done yesterday so all I need to finish today is laundry. Amanda brought her boyfriend over today, seems like a nice kid. Carol, that's early but like you said, you'll still have the rest of the day.

I miss Miss Weezie! .. and Merme and Dodge and... tears
In case you didn't figure out what my tests were about...
So far I have listed 125 key words and phrases that will automatically link to an appropriate Garden Helper page, unlike many sites that use the same feature to bombard you with unwanted ads...
It will capitalize plant names etc, and convert an all cap keyword to the appropriate case.

Unfortunately, it doesn't do plural words. If you ask a question about Hydrangeas, it won't take you to the Hydrangea page like I had hoped. I may have to fix that... I'll ask Moguai what he thinks.
I'll be adding many new keywords to the list, as time allows.
I hope everyone finds it a helpful tool...

I made it 'til almost 10 pm with no nap. I let my schedule get a little skewed the last few days and I want to sleep tonight. Every time I felt 'droopy' this afternoon, I got up and dusted something. I hate dusting. But I stayed awake and got about 6 months of dirt moved out of the house in spots. I think I deserve a good night's sleep.
This is Teddy's last full week of school. I am looking forward to the 3 weeks of before summer session begins.
