Hi gang. Just got back from being out all day. Drove with the 'rents up to tax-free Salem, NH to purchase a small refridgerator at Sears. It's a gift for my brother and his wife for their anniversary. Drove from there to my brother's house to drop it off. We all went out to lunch, then to my nieces' dance recital at 2pm. After that was over, on the way home, the 'rents and I went out to dinner. Dropped them home, and did a little home shopping at Mom and Dad's Market.

Brought home a can of coffee (it was on sale, mom bought it while out shopping this week), a quart of ice cream (again, purchased on sale, stored in her freezer) and some meatballs that she had made this week. I like shopping at Mom and Dad's Market. The food is great and the price is right!!
Oh, and I need to add my nieces' dance school teacher to Sloe Gin's hammerpunch list. My younger niece is on a dance competition team. One of their performances is called Arlington National. It's won them awards this year. They performed it in the recital today and there's this part of the routine where they have headstones on the stage and they're all supposed to carry them off the stage. One girl left it on stage while the rest of the performance was going on. No biggie. You probably didn't know if you hadn't seen the performance before. Anyway, at the end of the recital we were waiting for both the girls to come out, the older one came out and said the teacher was reaming out all the girls in that performance for screwing up and leaving the headstone on the stage. And was not letting them out to say hi to their families. They're
11. Who the hell reams out 11-year-olds for something so minor??
