Random Thoughts and Observations: February 1, 2009
Posted by Busy Nothings on February 1, 2009
It’s been a busy weekend. So much so that I haven’t really had a lot of time to compose my own thoughts even though I updated Lucy’s Blog. Sometimes it’s just easier to see things from her perspective that to think my own thoughts. I really enjoyed this weekend and the company that we had. I just wish I had another day to do laundry and rest a little. It would just make the week seem a little less long. I can’t complain though. I don’t think that I’ve worked but maybe a couple of full weeks since Christmas for one reason or another. Anyway, here are just a few random thoughts for today:
- I think that cities should have an ordnance that states that developers cannot build a mini mall until every other mini mall within the city has full occupancy. I saw another mini mall going up today on the way to Farmington, and saw several along the same road that have maybe one tenant. I loathe seeing land developed for these stupid mini malls that have no tenants.
- I much prefer Puppy Bowl to the Super Bowl. I just don’t care for professional football despite my love of college football.
- I’m hoping that this week will be normal and calm. You know, no rear endings, no colonoscopies, no ice storms, no disasters or issues at all. I just want to go to work this week, have a calm week at work, come home in the evenings, play with my dog, prepare dinner, do the dishes, iron, cuddle with Bart, and call it a day.
- I’ll be happy when the dirt road in front of our subdivision is repaved.
- I love Rick’s Bakery sugar cookies and sausage rolls!
- I still get a kick out of talking to my niece, Emma, on the phone. She’s a card.
- I love my family, both blood, my marriage, and those friends who’ve become family over the years.

I’m hoping for the same thing this week… a normal, calm week. Brandon’s already talking about Greenwood or Fayetteville again next weekend, but I think I’ll skip out whether he goes or not. I just need to be home for a while.
Glad we got to visit with you, though. We love hanging out with you all!

I hear you on the mini mall’s. It’s so frustrating to look at yet another eye sore just sitting there empty when there is another empty one a block or two away.
And professional sports just don’t seem as fun as college sports. I’ve never really been able to get excited about the Super Bowl.
I hope you have a normal, stress free week.
