Mom: To save, we will each pull a name out of a hat and buy one gift only for that person! Oh, my...this hat is so old! You need a new hat! Dad: Let's use your hat, dear. Mom: I don't have a hat. Cathy: You don't have a hat? Dad: Where's YOUR hat? Cathy: I lost my hat. Mom: You need a hat! Add hats to the shopping list! Hats for everyone! Dad: Total savings: Four minutes they weren't at the mall.

Now you know why he told Irving to “buckle up” when Cathy told him and Mom that she and Irving were expecting their first child — and that it would be a girl!

I bought my DH a new hat yesterday for Christmas. At Tractor Supply.

@GretchensMom – We picked Carabbas in Gilbert AZ (part of the Phoenix area) by random choice two years ago. Now we make sure we have at least one meal there every year during the conference I attend. Fantastic food and great service. Good morning Cathyites. I’m posting way too early in the day as my world is upside down this week. Still working until the wee hours of the morning as usual but waking up way too early since the contractors are here repairing the flood damage we experienced back in October. Hard to sleep in when they are rebuilding the room under you.

Yet another example of Cathy’s and Mom’s good intentions run amok.
hendelca – sorry about your flood damage. :(
Hello, Cathy Clan: the regulars, the visitors, and those we miss and worry about (i.e. Aaron and Billy)

Well, that cost-saving good idea veered sideways and went over the side of a cliff in a hurry! In actuality, Dad’s hat was probably in excellent shape, Mom and Cathy were just looking for any excuse they could find to go shopping. As-a-matter-of-fact, Mom’s in such a hurry that she couldn’t even be bothered to take off her apron before throwing on her coat and running for the door!
Hi, rgcviper!hendelca: My husband used to build Carrabba’s restaurants when he worked for his previous employer. You’re absolutely right about the food and service being excellent. Can’t wait to go there again sometime!
Aaron & Dr. Billy: Missing you both very much!
Hello and Happy Thursday to all my Cathy Clan friends! Only one more work day until the weekend!

Hi Cathyites!! Well at least they know what to buy for each other — maybe they could find some heads with brains to go with the hats.Sorry it’s taking you so long to repair the flood damage Hendelca. We had renovations done on our cottage in Canada and it took 6 years to complete — so I can empathize. Hope it gets done soon.
