3 Boxes of BS

Getting friends, family, bloggers, readers together for a blog shoot; not so much.If I thought I had a chance, I would demand more money for the job.

{{ This is just for me, a chance to kvetch, so no one else read this. If you are one of the people I invited through Facebook and asked you to send an EMAIL ADDRESS to me and let me know how many people are going to be attending; DON’T JUST LIKE THE FRAKKIN’ POST, actually send me an email address!!!!!!}}
/Rant

Okay folks, getting down to the wire and I hope that I’ve gotten in touch with everyone. Still waiting to hear back from a few folks about attendance so please contact me as soon as possible.

Would anyone be willing to step up and bring the following:

A. Paper plates for about 80
B. one or more of the fixings for hamburgers; lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles
C. Ketchup, Mayo, Mustard

If you haven’t received an email from me with the address of the blogshoot, please let me know (3boxesofbs_AT_gmail_Dot_Com) and I’ll make sure you have it.

I promised Daughter a long time ago if she ever needed a dress I would buy it for her.

Now, she is taking me up on that promise one last time; her wedding dress !

I really don’t want to hear about it, I don’t want to admit she is 25 and getting married next year.

But she is shopping, incredibly wisely, for her dress and I have to take my fingers out of my ears, stop stamping my feet and screaming “I can’t hear you” and act like an adult.

Can’t we go back to the time when she was shopping for a prom dress?

Update — $1,500 dress at retail purchased for $450 on E-Bay. Still have to see it, make sure it is as advertised, get it tailored. Dang it, makes it all too real that she is getting married.

Okay folks…I’ve heard from quite a few of you but still need to touch base with a few more. If you have not received an email with the club location, definitely let me know.

Also please let me know the final count as much as possible. I need to purchase the hamburgers, hotdogs and buns soon

Really hard to do, so hard there is a free (at least for today) e-book on how to do it.

Kinda hard to believe the anti-rights cultists when they are yelling we need a law and the federal government in order to do background checks, eh?

It’s about all I have in the tank this morning.

Long night last night at the club board meeting. Caffeine consumption might kickstart the brain cells soon.

A tyrannical rule cannot in any reasonable construction be accounted lawful, and therefore the disturbance of such a government cannot be esteemed seditious, much less traitorous.

In other parts of the Dallas Fort Worth Metroplex; not so much. 6 confirmed dead, 14 missing, hundreds injured, mostly in the Cleburne and Granbury areas.

10 Tornadoes reported last night across north Texas. We didn’t have one in Arlington but my son (out picking up his wife & not taking cover) says he saw rotation just south of Bunker BS.

* – at least I am physically; mentally I’m not so sure yet. Spent 45 minutes in walk in closet with 2 dogs, a 10 month old, a 2 year old and a 4 year old. While the alert sirens wailed in the background and She Who Lets Me Make Her Coffee Every Morning kept running out to see if she could see the rotation.

Edited to add – Saw these at the last Self-Reliance Expo – Storm Dorms Storm Shelters – thought it was a great idea. Made the mistake of showing it to SWLMMHCEM last night. Going to have to figure out how to finance it.
