Rant and Rave Wednesday

Wednesday, July 28, 2010....




Any readers following me on a regular basis know if it's Wednesday, it's time to Rant and Rave about the past week. Without further adieu, here are my Rants and Raves from the past several weeks:


Rave: The new season of Mad Men started up.

Rave: There has been a slight break in the weather here. It is still hot and humid, but not as unbearable as it was last week.

Rant: I invited my dad over for lunch on Sunday for 1:00 p.m.. While chatting with hubby at 9:20 a.m. (he was in kitchen and I was on computer), he's like your father is here and I was like ha, ha (my dad is known to show up early) and when he opened the door and I heard my father's voice, I was like 'Oh Shit' -- I wasn't dressed and wasn't quite unprepared for him. Hubby and I planned on running some errands before he came. My dad's only comment was "I know I'm a little early". A little early??? Hello? Try 3 1/2 hours early. Wonder what he considers to be very early.

Rave: Caught up with some friends for dinner Monday night. One I hadn't seen in over a year.

Rave: A very fun food pantry dinner party last week.


Okay, that's it for me. I would love to read any Rants and Raves you want to share?

That's so funny about your dad! Maybe he was just really excited to see you?

I have the opposite problem with my dad. He'd show up 3 1/2 hours late!

He learned his lesson when WE all learned how to drive. He's not there within 15-20 minutes? We leave.

My in-laws are just like your dad (my mother-in-law's record is 3-1/2 hours early). I don't get it. They only live 30 minutes away and there is never traffic, so where is the justification in leaving your house FOUR HOURS before you need to be at my house?

I guess my rant was very similar to yours this week.

Don Draper makes me happy in ways I can't even decribe.

My rave...........spending time with my grandson

Joanna Jenkins said...

Yeah for Mad Men! Love that show.

And I'm not sure which is worse-- early or late relatives. My family usually shows up 2 hours late!

Cheers, jj

You should have sent your dad out to do your errands - that'll teach him to show up early ;0)

Enjoy the glorious weather - you know being spoiled with a summer like this means we will get clobbered this winter.

I'll go along with the weather rave. Today is the first day in a while that will not be 100+ degrees and high humidity here. Instead it will be a balmy 90 with 100% humidity. {*grin*}

Claudya Martinez said...

I'm usually early, but not THAT early.
