I didn't do a huge burly workout, i kept it mellow and made sure I was holding my body right so I can get by shoulders, arms and back into the right shape, alignment and strengthened. That's my wrist problem, I have weak shoulders.<br /><br />Anyway, after working out I spent an hour trying to buy Tori Amos tickets and failing. Presales suck. Now I have to do the general sale tomorrow during my rolfing appointment. I will seriously duck out for 10 minutes to buy the tickets on his reception computer. I take my tori shows seriously!<br /><br />We have wasps trying to nest at under our solar panels. They seem to keep to themselves, they aren't aggressive, I hope they stay that way because I can't really get to where the nest is!Chantrellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01304351215076622980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7341973562786153133.post-69211210904101951142011-07-28T13:31:58.424-05:002011-07-28T13:31:58.424-05:00I'm OK with the bees, tho I doubt I will ever ...I'm OK with the bees, tho I doubt I will ever be a TRUE friend to them.<br /><br />Really not with Wasps.

Always up for a little international intrigue ;)<br /><br />It won't be ONE tree, it will be many branches interlaced into a wonderful climbing adventure.<br /><br />The funny thing is I took pics and sent them to Slam'er (who is taking the tree DOWN) thinking oops this tree is WAY too big for taking down, and I got back a "Nah, it's med to baby Tree Beast, no worries."<br /><br />Does Derby breed such strong souls or does it merely attract them?
