The spoiled kids

The pics did not turn out as well as I had hoped. I think all the good ones are on the second roll, which is still in the camera. I need to finish taking that roll before I can get it developed, and at the rate I take pictures, that could be a while.

But, I did promise a picture, so here is one of our spoiled kids, Giorgio and Sunshine. Sunshine is the black one, so she’s kind of hard to see, and Giorgio has that sleepy, “what the hell?” look on his face I think he was born with. They are on our bed, which seems to become their bed during the daytime hours.

Precious, aren’t they?

I have some money!

I have some money! Wow! You see, several months ago I ordered something from a mail order catalog. A few weeks later, they sent me a little postcard to advise that the item was on back order. A few weeks after that, another postcard, still on back order. A couple of weeks later, another postcard… well, you get the picture.

Yesterday, they finally gave up. They admitted that they are very likely to never receive the item I ordered, and sent me a refund check for my order. “We hope you’ll shop with us again,” the check said. So, I have money! Yeah!! Not much, but it will pay about half the gas bill for the big trip.

So I’m off to mail the money to my bank, since I have one of those internet bank accounts and the only way to deposit money into my account is to mail it. Then I’ll stop by the drug store and pick up the pics I left there yesterday to be developed. I asked them to put them on a disc. Perhaps I’ll have a pic or two for you later.

You have something to look forward to. Yeah!
