I haven't slept well for the past few nights, so I am doing not much today. It's sad when you wake up tired. But I digress. I did make a pot of vegetable soup that will be enough for 3 meals for me and the Old Man. And I'm here to say if I could find a candle that smelled like my vegetable soup when it's cooking, I'd buy a case of them.

I Am Not Procrastinating
Last year, I waited until I got the car registration notice from the County Clerk's office, only to have it arrive at the house two days after the deadline. Today I am going to be proactive. I am getting ready to go out to the Silver Bullet and get the registration info and I will do my registration online. Go me for not procrastinating.

Random Fact About Me
I know four sets of twins - three sets are identical and fourth set is fraternal. Ironically, all of these four sets of twins went to my church.

Mullet Watch
This might be a first for Mullet Watch. I went to WalMart this morning, and saw a young boy and his father with mullets. I have to say the son's mullet was better shaped than his father, but we had a father and son mullet none the less.

Update From The Compound
It's been a busy and crazy, stressful few days here at The Compound. We have so many friends and family that are battling illnesses and health issues, and that has preyed upon our hearts .
Yesterday, the Old Man's cousin, his sister, and his wife came up from Breckenridge County to visit us for the afternoon. Due to many health issues with his cousins, we hadn't seen them since 2 years ago when they came to the Old Man's 90th birthday party. We had an awesome time visiting, reminiscing, and laughing. You can't ask for much more than that.

Things That Make You Go Hmm Addendum
I had to go to Walgreens today to pick up another prescription for the Old Man, and as I was walking down the aisle, I saw another product that was behind lock and key - particular sticks of deodorant. I can only imagine why.

Things That Make You Go Hmmm
I went to a drugstore today to get a few things, and as I was walking down an aisle, I noticed that the store had deodorant under lock and key. The sticks of deodorant were behind the heavy plastic covering that could only be opened with a key. I know that a lot of the drugstores have decongestant pills like that, to deter people from buying too much to make some crazy type of drug, but I never thought about sticks of deodorant.
