What a Monday!

Man, what a Monday!  A rainy Monday!  We've been drenched in the Dallas area.  Which is fine by me but not fine by someone I know that has a coat of fawn fur. Cody completely freaked out when he thought I was trying to get him to go over a puddle.  It's just a puddle!  He's not made of sugar...he's not going to dissolve! He's always so difficult to deal with in bad weather.  He's Mr. Grumpy-pants!  I think I heard it was a triple round of storms passing through the next few days.  It's the same system that caused flooding down in Austin over the weekend. Buck up little camper, more rain tomorrow!

As if dealing with difficult Cody wasn't challenging enough for me, I had an issue with a family member over the phone. This particular family member has been rather harassing to me over the last few days as he has continued to call in an effort to beg for money.  Geez!  I gave him a piece of my mind today!  It wasn't a pleasant conversation.  I was like a Rottweiler off her leash during the conversation.  I can be sympathetic to people that are in a truly difficult bind.  But a drug addicted fool calling me names because I won't give into his wishes...well that is completely different.  Look out because I'm going to blow when one acts the way he acted today on the phone. I haven't been that mad in years!  This situation has been such an issue for me I've actually considered changing my phone number...not seriously, but the thought has crossed my mind.

Oh and my nephew decided to play a little joke on me.  He and his girlfriend are expecting a baby in mid to late December. I'm helping to host a baby shower at our place for his girlfriend early next month.  I've been working hard to plan this baby shower.  It's been fun though!  I love things like this.  Anyway, he was trying to be funny.  He sent me a pic of a newborn baby at a hospital with the accompanying text that read "look what we have here".  I of course freaked out a bit.  I did think briefly that a 2 month premature baby would be in an incubator and hooked up to machines.  Yet I still instantly called him to see what was up.  It was just a joke!  The baby has not come yet!  Whew!  I then told him to be patient.  You don't what your child going down that road of being a preemie!  You don't want that worry! 

As for the plans of the evening I'm so glad to be able to relax while watching Monday Night Football.  Hopefully it will be a good game.  Super competitive and lots of scoring is what I'm wanting!  In fun news, it's experimental meal night once again for us.  I got the meal in the oven so that it will be done right at game time, as usual on Monday night. The experimental meal is truly an experiment.  There was this pork chop casserole dish at the family reunion that I have tried to recreate tonight.  Totally unsure how this will turn out.  Fingers-crossed it's yummy!  If not we'll be ordering a pizza! LOL!
