Wake Me When The Boring Stops


quote by happy bunny.

Every morning for the past 4 mornings, I have been woken up by a fly crawling all over me. When I bat it away, it just comes back to land in another spot. Gross.

So I am ordering those vintage, antique fly paper strips. They really seemed to work when I was a kid. Remember all those disgusting flies hanging on the strips for days? Yuck.

Hubby couldn't get the day off on Monday, so we contacted the topper seller on CraigsList via cell & paid for it by Paypal. What a blessing technology.

The smoke that has hung in the region for the past few days is finally leaving. Thank goodness.

After hubby got off work, went over to get my nails done at 5PM in Airway Heights at Regal Nails. Was very relaxing. Got a dark navy blue on my toes.

Walked 'Lil Bit & Isabelle. Bit lifted his leg to pee FOR THE FIRST TIME! This will go into his baby book. He lifted his leg so high, that he nearly tipped over! It was hilarious. The grass was so deep, he loved to play in it. Ran around like a darned bunny rabbit - darting.

KRL-N had gone rock wall climbing at REI, so we contacted Matt to meet us at the Rusty Moose for drinks until she could join us.
"Our overall experience was not enjoyable at this restaurant. Yes, it does have a certain rustic atmosphere with all the moose decor. But it would have been better if they had put some of the decorating expense into the food &service. The potato soup which was featured as the 'speciality of the day' arrived cold. Dinner salad was sparse with watered down salad dressing. Both of these side dishes are a separate charge. The first alcoholic drink that is ordered at the table is quite strong while the following ones are quite watered down. The outrageously expensive filet mignon was cooked to perfection, but absolutely luke-warm. When asked about the description of the servings, the wait staff presented a vague explanation and was unable to clarify the sauce of the crab pasta; when the order arrived, there was no flavor to the pasta dish & almost no crab!The lighting is dark within the seating area and the font is too small to read on the menu without a magnifying glass & a flashlight.

After purchasing two $50 gift certificates via KAYU promotion, we were only allowed to use ONE gift certificate per table. Our total bill should have been somewhere around $70; instead it was over $150. Totally not worth it."

On Tuesday, I left the above negative comments for the restaurant on Google.

Rode bikes at Farragut Park early morning with dogs. 'Lil Bit really enjoys the exercise and runs on the trail quite well.

Talked to KRL-N for a while after hubby went to work.
