So, not that it matters, but here's how my morning has gone so far:

5:30 - bathroom time - I get up and open the bathroom door.quietly.
5:31 - Mom: "Is it time to get up?"
me: "Not yet"
Mom: "Well don't I go to work today?"
me: "No, Mom, no you don't"
Mom: "Then what time should I get up?"
me: "about 9" (we tell her this, but she actually usually gets up around 8, except when we need her to get up early, then she sleeps 'til 9:30 or later)

5:45 Mom: "Is it time to get up yet?"
me: "No"
Mom: "well I'm going to be late"
me: "No, no you don't, and it's not time to get up yet"

Rinse, lather repeat this cycle 3 more times, til I caved and let her get up at 6:30 ish, made breakfast, cleaned the commode, got her clothes out for the day.

Meanwhile Thelma and Louise were crying because they hadn't been fed yet, so I picked their dish up off the kitchen floor to find it surrounded by hundreds of tiny ants. Cleaned that up just in time for Thelma to barf under the kitchen table. Cleaned that up.

I keep a dispensing container of water in the fridge all the time for cold drinks. Our water has a slightly chemical taste to it, so I filter it with my Brita before putting it in the container. So I had filtered a pitcher full earlier this morning and eventually dumped it into the refrigerator decanter only to see a large earwig climbing INSIDE the filtering pitcher when I was done pouring. So I had to dump out the refrigerator container, bleach both containers, and refill the filter container. Now we have drinking water that probably tastes like diluted bleach, and isn't all that cold.

Meanwhile, Mom finished her breakfast and washed up for the day, so I helped her back to the bedroom and assisted her getting dressed. I try to have her do as much as possible for herself, but she needs a little help with dressing, especially socks and shoes. She usually makes her own bed though, and gets insulted if I offer to do that for her. So as I left her room this morning I said "OK, just make your bed now and you'll be all set for the day." Her response? "Well, I'm a little tired, could you do it for me?" :banghead:

I experienced my first "Truck Day" at work. Every Thursday the delivery truck comes in and the back room becomes a cluttered mess.

Oh boy, the memory of shipment days past at The Disney Store!!!!! :joyfull: ;)
We used to get, generally, between 200-400 boxes in one shipment every week, and as many as 800 during the Holidays and sometimes more than one shipment a week. Our back room was completely insane for the first few hours while we organized the boxes and then processed and stored all the product. :confused: :)

Pburgh is pretty big on fireworks. The displays usually last 10-24 minutes and because of our layout, can be seen from all three rivers and twelve neighborhoods.

The company that sets them off is zambelli...here's some info on them

Despite this, there's nothing better than disney fireworks. :)

Hahaaa!
The first thing I thought of when you mentioned PGH fireworks was that family! They were on a History Channel show several years ago. :)
Also, earlier today, PGH was the featured city on Bizarre Foods America. :)

So most of the fireworks that were supposed to go on tonight were postponed due to the possible problems with Hurricane Arthur. We're supposed to get rain and wind tomorrow. so most fireworks are postponed til Saturday or Sunday. Oh yay!

Boston rescheduled the Boston Pops concert and fireworks on the Esplanade, from the 4th to tonight, because of Hurricane Arthur bringing a lot of rain tomorrow. It's odd having it on the 3rd, but a smart decision. If they postponed until Saturday, some of the headliners would not have been able to perform. (Joey MacIntyre, and cast of Phantom of the Opera were unavailable to perform tonight, though--only the 4th was possible). The good thing is that the Beach Boys will be performing this evening. (I'll just watch the concert on tv tonight. I have no desire to deal with crowds after working today.) Nemo, I don't know if you get WBZ Boston on your cable/satellite in RI, but it's on at 8 p.m.

The preparations for the concert today provided some good diversion around midday. A bunch of us watched the Army drive down Storrow Drive with their howitzers attached to the back of their trucks. (They set those up for the 1812 Overture and set them off during a section of the corresponding music--those puppies are LOUD! BOOM!! Happy 4th!

As for the 4th, we don't really have any plans. DH is supposed to run in a 5K in the morning, but he said if it rains, he's not going. Guess we can't barbeque either with the rain. I'd say that the 4th here is beginning to look like a wash-out. :(

But I hope that the rest of you have a wonderful holiday! :cat:

We have a cookout to go to on the 5th and a 90th birthday party for DH's aunt on the 6th, so by Monday Mom will be totally confused. As far as tomorrow goes, we'll be home probably baking stuff for the cookout.
