I’ve been thinking about this feeling like I’m scooped up in a tornado feeling.   And a factor in this feeling is because of that “middle man” thing that I’ve talked about before.   Add to that the “questions I couldn’t possibly answer” thing.   An example … yesterday morning hubby calls me at 9:00 am.   He talks a bit and then he asks “Why didn’t Rachel (son’s fiancee) go to work today?”

How would I know that?   Everyone is still asleep when my daughter and I leave the house in the morning.   Son is the next up and out.   Hubby and the fiancee are the last to wake up and leave the house.    And unless something is terribly wrong, why would I care?   She’s an adult with a great job – great pay – lots of leave.   I’m not her momma and she doesn’t need to report to me.

Hubby won a raffle.   Two Washington Redskins Hoggettes  (yes … men  with pig noses wearing dresses) …

… will be coming to a Redskins party that we are hosting on November 29.    See, here comes that tornado again.   WE are now hosting a party.   A big party.   Seems that part of the raffle  deal (you know, the raffle that hubby entered .. not me) is that someone (maybe more than A someone) from the local media will attend for pictures and a story.   Pictures and a story because the raffle was to raise money for adult day-care in our county.   Oh man.    At least hubby had a very good initial thought … which is to call the local firehouse and see if we can have the event there.   And he’d better get the word out that everyone needs to bring a dish/drinks because this is quickly going to turn huge and I’m not cooking for all these people.   Even still – you and I both know this is going to be a whirlwind trying to get this party organized and nailed down in less than two weeks time.   Whoosh … I just got tossed around by that tornado again.

My rings are spinning like crazy.   This is a good thing.   This means my fingers aren’t quite as fat as they were a month ago.   I’ve lost about 10 pounds.   The same sneaky 10 pounds that found their way back home after I lost them last year.     Perhaps all that whirling around in the tornado makes a person drop a few pounds.

I just came back from having a drug test.    And while the idea of someone wanting to test me for drug use (it’s a requirement of the new job) is understandable, it still cracks me right up.   Like I have time to be a druggie.    Drugs are not allowed in a tornado.
