I'm Catherine The Great

Hope this will be a leisurely and great day for all of you. The biggest news for me of the last week is that I had my annual physical on Wednesday. I still haven't received the results of the blood tests. It is a good sign though that the doctor hasn't billed me yet. He must think I am going to live for a while.

Next week the only thing on the agenda is to pickup our minister and take her to Mom's for a visit. Remember our minister is a blind woman that obviously doesn't drive. She really is an amazing woman. I enjoy spending time with her so for a couple of hours Wednesday afternoon I will be in the company of two amazing women, the minister and my Mom.

On to the entertainment update. Saw a couple of movies. The Bounty Hunter, ugh, terrible movie. Backup Plan, not awful. The Amazing Race didn't eliminate anyone last week. I'm still rooting for the Cowboys. They just seem nice and they are having fun. The also seem to fight through obstacles in good spirits. On The Celebrity Apprentice they didn't eliminate anyone either. The two teams did so well with their challenge that the Trumpster kept them all for another week. On Dancing With The Stars sadly they eliminated the bachelor. It should have been Niecy.

OK, before asking about your lives I thought this might be a fun thing to do. Find out what historical figure you are:

Here is my answer:

You are Catherine the Great! You are very intelligent and a socialist. It is very important to you that all people be treated equally in a society. You are able to fully comprehend social problems and you are outspoken when it comes to dealing with them.

Now it is your turn. Let me know what went on in your life last week. How everyone in your circle is doing. Friends, relatives, and strangers. Let me know what is on the agenda for next week. I always love to hear what you are up to. If you are new to blog I would absolutely love it if you would introduce yourself. And don't forget to tell me what historical figure you are!

I had a amazing reunion with my step-brother who I have not seen since my mother died, November 1986.

Saw him twice this week. His ship deploys to the Persian Gulf at the end of the month.

Oh- and I was Catherine the Great also.

How great about your reunion, CD.

Ummm, I'm afraid I don't fit the profile I got ... Cleopatra? I don't think so.

Bill, still hold good thoughts on the test results. Also hoping your "nothing much planned" agenda holds better than the one for this weekend.

Pretty much status quo here, with the pool and editorial project. I think the good hours are outpacing the bad ones with the shoulder/arm/hip and keeping fingers crossed. Spent a delightful couple hours at the Farmer's Market annual plant sale yesterday and brought home more creeping perennials and some bedding plants for color. Lots of walking, then just a bit of weeding when I got home, so we'll see what the next couple days bring. Oh, spent time trying to get Living CkBk to import from MasterCook (to no avail) and then time trying to get MasterCook to set up meal plans (to no avail). I'm convinced the message here is that I'm not supposed to cook (BG)

So DR is Cleopatra! I was beginning to think that everyone was Catherine the Great, since I was, too.

Nothing new here, I'm afraid. Same old, same old.

DR, take it! Any excuse not to cook!

Hi DR

I see some Cleopatra in you!

Thanks for the good thoughts. Tomorrow should be good for me as the caregiver is there all day!

I'm glad the good moments are outnumbering the bad but I am praying until there are no bad moments!

Any excuse for not cooking is fine by me!!!

Hi Pat

It doesn't surprise me that a lot of us came out the same because a lot of us have the same views.
