Good morning everyone.

I just woke up to a flooded den. I have an inground pool in the backyard. It's been pouring down rain for a couple of days and for the very first time the pool water has spilled over the cool deck and the back yard is flooded. Thus, my sunken den (let's hear it for the 70's) is full of water.
But, you know what? There is nothing I can do about it right now except move the furniture to higher ground and wait for the flood to subside. So, I am going to deal with it when the rain stops because my life is just about perfect and a little water is not going to even begin to make a dent in it.


Today's Question(s):

Anyone else having "What day is it" confusion ? Yes. This happens to me from time to time since I retired.


Extra Credit Question:

With the fall TV season about to start, which season premieres are you looking forward to? Survivor!

Did they cancel or end any of your favorites ? Not that I am aware of.


Bonus Question:
Lets talk about writing

When you are writing something down do you use
Printing ? Usually printing.
or
Cursive ?

For our QOTD folks with children, are they still teaching Cursive writing in school ?

When it comes to your signature, can you easily tell it is your name or is it squiggly lines ? People can tell what my name is.


Inquiring Minds Question:

Is the milk in your fridge in a:
Plastic container ? This one
Carton ?
Glass bottle ?

Do you prefer:
Whole milk ?
1% ?
2% ? This one
Fat free(skim) ?
Chocolate milk ?

What type of milk is in your fridge right now ? About to expire milk. lol


Just for Fun:
What is your favorite "canned" food ? Cream of Mushroom soup

Karla u r 2 funny "Confusion" well I think if u just confused when u have a long weekend then u r doing a-o-K. I' confused and somewhat bewildered most everyday. I am not really into TV so I could careless about the fall line up will watch some I am sure. I am a combination writer always have been and boy did it get me in trouble at school back in the days when they could beat for anything. My milk is sometimes in the plastic container, but I still purchased cartons too. I prefer whole milk cause I like to add my own water if I choose to water it down. I love Nestle's Quick Chocolate Milk. I buy milk for the kids I am not that into it. Soy and Almond are my choices for the most part. I think canned pineapples are what I enjoy most... Well it is Wednesday aLLYaLL keep the peace and don't let no body push ur buttons .
