Sounds dee-lite-full on all counts. Hang on the bell, Lizzie!

My DH and I are moving a huge bell tonight. It belongs to the Nesbitt Union Chapel. He is president of their preservation group. Tomorrow we are having the dedication ceremony for the historical marker the state has erected...despite our group being in a huge legal battle with some folks who think they own the property (and who destroyed most of this stone chapel with bulldozers.) We hope the weather will be nice and we can ring the bell to conclude the ceremony.

Last night I dreamt that I moved to Medford, was living in a friend's attic and forgot to put in a change of address with the post office.

Odd thing is that the friend is someone I rarely see anymore, and really don't want to see...and her ex husband was there in the dream as well, although I am still friends with him.

I seem to have a lot of dreams about moving, particularly to Medford...trying to find a decent place to live, but always wishing I had not moved.

Next dream was that I was moving the Medford with my mom, evil stepdad, and younger brother Dan. We were moving into a nify old house, but I was worried about living with my stepdad again, because he was evil.

Of course my mom and stepdad have been divorced for about 20 years and he is, in fact, dead now.

I do wonder what the Dream-o-matic can tell me about these two dreams. The second scenario is a common theme in my dreams lately.

Re JRand's analysis of the plants.

My analysis of my plants: blossom end rot.

I am convinced that most of the people who work in nurseries these days don't know anything about plants.

That certainly hold true here in Atlanta. However I am blessed to have friends who are excellent master gardeners. I bet you do, too!

For over a year now, I've been checking the accounts of 2 of our ~~borrowers~~ thieves. One of them has $150+ worth of materials from my collection and the other has $250+ worth. I don't want the money, just the books for others to use.

Don't even get me started on GED test preparation books!

Maybe she had a dream about your moving to Medford and living in the attic of an old friend with whom you are not friendly but you "are" friendly with her ex-husband.....

Is there any possibility that a job transfer is in the offing in Medford and that you're afraid it's going to be offered to you?

DR MBarnum: I hope you have learned the identity of the new HOH in the Big Brother house. I don't have the live feeds, but I was checking in with www.hamsterwatch.com to find out who won. It didn't last as long as some of the other marathon HOH comps,

I don't think he would find out since he doesn't do spoilers.

I actually only found out who won this morning. But rather than read via hamsterwatch i read a play by play over at the live feeds discussion board at tvwithoutpity. For events like this endurance comp i'd rather read what happened as it happened in real time:

Right now i'm listening to last night's evicted houseguest on the early show:

Back from shipping packages and doing errands. I'm now completely caught up and my dining room is once again looking like a dining room.

The problem with getting everything done by 10:30 is that there's the rest o' the day. I'm meeting Kevin at six, and there's really nothing until then. Oh, I can do some organizing and whatnot, but that's about it.

No, nothing like that.

Medford is where I grew up, however.

I don't go to work until 1 pm today so I spent this morning cleaning my living room...which really, really needed it.

This weekend I will tackle the bedroom, bathroom, and/or kitchen. I need to take a bunch of stuff to the Humane Society Thrift Store again, I think.
