Monday NOOZ in order of the Sunday night call

Chaz and crew:
Friday saw a contractor's quote to install the laundry upstairs in Lily's closest. Since it backs up to the Master Bath, the contractor said no problem and it would take 2-3 days to finish. They will install a ceramic tile floor first. So, I guess it's a go!
Saturday, Chaz took Ray and Lily into Cincinnati to the Observatory. Maria had to attend a faculty dinner at MU for a new professor and the Sunday morning presentation, so she spent the night at a collegues home. Ray was very enthusiastic about the Observatory and Charlie had never been there before. They got to look into the telescope - saw the sun - sez Ray.
Sunday was church, Krogers ( a donut with candy corn on it for Lily- she gets a donut every time they go to the store) then play time. That means bike riding for Ray and running through the sprinkler for Lily. Chaz was finishing up bathtime for them when I called.

Lisa
7 more days until Lisa and Brian leave for LAS VEGAS and their anniversay.
They'll be there until Friday. She has booked 3 shows to attend Tony and Tina's wedding, Cirque De Soleil, Jay White. She has rented a car and they hope to explore the area somemore during the day. They can only spend so much time at the pool drinking pina coladas or something. She has 2 new Marilyn Monroe halter type dresses for night time shows, satin pants and gold top and new gold and white thong kitten heel pumps. She's our fashionista.
Brady also goes to 6th grade camp that week and will have his dad pick him up on Friday.Perfect timing. He lost another football game on Saturday. Bummer. He has not won one game in ?? years. Next year he will be out for middle school varsity football.

CC and Charles:
Ceece was watching the Food Channel in the bedroom when I called. Charles and Leon were watching- what else- football. Charles was also doing his Sunday night ironing.
She worked at Belk's Friday night and Sat morning. Also she had her first Bridal Registry consultation. Since she is still a "newly wed" she had great credibility. That night she and Charles double teamed to babysit Julia and Brady.
Her hair is still growing- no haircut since the wedding. She is keeping it long until after Lauren wedding in December. We're promoting a Locks for Love donation. The big Bachlorette Bash in Chicago is set for Oct 7th.

Kellster:
Jay's dad and wife were over for dinner Sunday night. His dad's lodge home is still progressing. He has a saw mill on the premises cutting the cedar logs that he and Jay cut and hauled last year. The Amish are going to erect the structure.
Kelly spent Saturday stripping wallpaper, taping and painting the guest bathroom " a warm gray". Now they need to get new fixtures. She also is taking my suggestion to get a new comforter for the bedrooom.
She had just taken the garbage out to the curb for the night - a sign that the weekend was over.

Momma, Queen of the House
Tom mowed the VW house lawn while I picked up the pears that had fallen from the tree, littering the mowing surface on Friday night. Saturday, we went out to the farm. He mowed, what else? I checked for more mushrooms to find the 'Fairey" ring had disappeared or was eaten by the deer or ??? and the puffballs were slowly "mellllltinng". We left early to get to Roshecks for the disasterous ND/MI game. We left after the1st MI touchdown in the second half. The Cronleys were crying in their beer after that game.
Tom is hoping ND is still devastated when they play MI State next weekend.
Then the 6 of us went to Bell's Brewery's Beergarten downtown for a pint or 2. Sunday, we went to 7:30 Mass, I sang at 9 and Tom went out to the farm while I had an open house 2-4. Then we picked plums, raspberries and apples from our garden. Tom peeled and put up it all up in the freezer.

Sorry, I'm so talkitive today. Have a great week. Luff ewe all.
