I liked this, for me. starting at 3:10 on video about being firm but kind to ourselves. Hope you like it. that part - it's not the whole video but I liked (actually I like the whole thing 8-) :D ) but this part hit home for me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=htaGko2kaxA&t=203s

You must have married as babies!
Absolutely, Twins -at least it seems like that must be the case. Sometimes I wonder just what I have accomplished in those 60 years!

Feel better, Harmony.

Thank you all for your kind wishes. Now to get through the next couple of months! There were many times I thought we'd never make it anywhere near this far! And except for things making me older I still feel like a 'spring chicken'.
Begun is half done -SO! JUST BEGIN!!

Dee - CONGRATULATIONS to you and DH! That is such a huge accomplishment!

I was up early this morning and used the quiet time to develop an outline for my talk this afternoon. Once I got the main points developed then I filled in with some details. Hopefully having it organized will help me not be so intimidated with speaking.....and those listening to not fall asleep in boredom. )

This morning trip to the class about volcanoes was a success. DS9 and friend enjoyed the time together as well as learning and hands-on activities. Next week the class is dissecting crayfish. I need to tune my curiosity meter because it just sounds like eeeeeewwww to me.

DGS21 came and ate lunch with me. Time spent with him just flies by.

Hi everyone. Quick post here. We had a thunderstorm early this morning. I woke up a little after 7 a.m. the storm started around 8 and didn't stop until after 10. Dgd20 and dfriend were still sleeping.

Happy Anniversary Dee and DH!. ❤️

Dgd20 and dfriend left at 11 for a little time at the beach. I've been taking this opportunity to do some much needed pupa while they are gone. I have a load of laundry going and the kitchen is clean so far.

(((Rose))), so sorry to hear about Courtni. Hope your migraine headache has eased.

(((Blessedw2's dd-younger))).

(((Harmony))), hope you are feeling better. Do you have a Dr appointment today for your hand, or did I misread?

Good work, Nancy.

Lady M, I know you will do well this afternoon!

Toot toot!

Grabbing a bit of lunch so checking in with all of you.

Have fed Dbrother twice- he has 5 meals a day.

Fed big baby and bathed him.

Little baby has had 2 bottles, bath and tummy time. For tummy time I put a thick blanket on our dining table and I sit right next to him and do the things dr recommended. A lot has changed since I had a baby.

DH returned from errands. Need to shower and get ready for work

Congratulations to the Dees!

I don't know how others cook multi veggie things - without it taking time. :shock:
I made a corn/green onion/jalapeño/tomato/cilantra/etc. salad for tonight
I also made chimichurri - lots of cut up garlic, cilantro, radish/green onion etc.
wow - the time it takes.

nice thing is tomorrow I have already made stuff - cabbage with white wine and onion cooked already,(french thing), carrots cut and cooked already, brats for everyone else. french potato salad - easy peasy
next night fish packets with veggies and compound butter (pre-made and in freezer)
eat out breakfast saturday morning.

time to cook the chicken part of the dish and then clean up.
it is always a joy to be here with you!

Toot toot!

Got the donations bagged up from the office & desk decluttering I did yesterday and loaded them in the trunk.

The pantry is half decluttered now.

I worked on the table some. Plugging away trying not to feel stuck.
Thanks Sunny.
