Sunset and Sass









My sassy sister called the cops on our darling neighbors Saturday night.  Ellen came came home from work around 2:30 to hear loud music and arguments taking place next door. She calmly waited and waited. She had some cake. And she waited. Finally at 4:30 Ellen sent a patrol car over to pay a little visit to our noisy neighbors. I believe they got a citation for weed as well as the noise. I also believe Ellen slept soundly that night.

Earlier in the evening Grandma hosted her "Jordan and Ellen" birthday party, despite the fact that Ellen couldn't attend as she was working. Both Jordan and Alston were there which was quite the treat for Granny. I showed up a little later and enjoyed the catered meal by Bessingers. Jordan brought Jessica with him and also a present for Ellen. The present included a bowl that can't spill and a reaching stick for those heard to reach items on the top shelf of her closet.

And earlier than this, Saturday morning Buddy threw up all over the carpet in the playroom; extending from the washing machine all the way over to the computers. Scott Steamer came right over. Unfortunately, there was little he could do. We are now considering new carpet on account of the stain but more importantly, because of the intense reeking stench that has conquered the playroom.

In Dad news, things are going well as he is wrapping up projects and has gotten an offer on one of his newly completed renovations. He has sold the last piece of furniture in Bobs garage and Bob is more than pleased. Dad is more recently perturbed that someone has taken him up on an offer he made to build a house WAY up highway 17. I guess he didn't think they would take it.
As Dad works on, Mom's only hits on her job search is the head wrestling coach for the Charleston County School District or the assistant manager of Chuck-E-Cheese. I think we've got a match.

Now if you'll excuse me, I ditched class to write a paper. I'd better get something done.
