Up: the loving generousity of so many friends and family during my wedding.

IA: We have 18  spatchulas, 12 measuring cups, 5 sets of pyrex, 3 toasters, and a partridge in a pear tree... ;)

(and enough plate sets and towels to supply an army!)

UP:  I am still swooning over my guacamole from last night.

IA:  There's only a couple spoonfuls of it left.  :\\\'(

UP: the dishes we had for the potluck were better than I thought they would be

IA: supper was slow plating up, so was kinda cold by the time we ate it

Ours was hot, hot, hot!  >:D  (actually I went a little milder this time, for HME)

Is that a hint?  :)  Want guacamole piped through your letter slot?  :P

I'll have to get some more avocadoes - the good ones (Haas) seem to be in season right now, so it's definitely the time for guacamole.

I have been having tummy issues again this past week I was having the same problems about 2 months or so ago but then they stopped but now they have reared there nasty ugly head again. the pains were that bad I had to leave the gym an only did part of my gym routine cause of it.  ::)  >:(

IA: You would think the sky is falling according to some people, over the US healthcare bill of course.

UP: Against my better judgment, I set the record straight on a few comments some goons were making on a friend's FB status.  Needless to say, all is now quiet on the Western front.  ;) It doesn't happen often, but when it does, I love being right.  ;D

I could manage hotter - make some more, make some more!

IA:  I got a letter from the IRS, saying that they were changing my filing status to Single and reducing my income-tax refund by over $700 because my dependent did not have a valid Social Security Number. 

UP:  I compared my 2009 return to the previous one, and found out I'd transposed the last 2 digits of her SSN.  I was able to straighten it out over the phone, and will be getting my full refund in 2-4 weeks.

IA: it doesn't finish until just before midnight - hope I can stay awake!

IA:  I visited the doctor on Wednesday and got some prescriptions.  The pharmacy told me that my asthma rescue inhaler, Alupent, has been discontinued.  Ventolin doesn't work well for me (I need at least 8 puffs to feel any relief).

UP:  I went online and got coupons for some of my meds, saving $45.
