Almost 2 p.m. here, I need to get moving again. I did make a DPC, and then talk to E, my genealogy friend for our monthly check in. I'll need to s2s before going to temple later too.

I should run out right now, I can get envelope and gift wrap at the nearby CVS, I think. Before that tho, since I've been sitting awhile, I'll ck BP.

Home from a successful but extremely wet homeschool event. DS10 and DGD7 loved it.

I heard the thunder before the rain started. I told the kids "Come on, we are leaving now". They wanted to stay with their group but I wanted to be inside the vehicle ASAP. I'm not afraid of storms but I have a healthy respect for lightning and don't want to be hanging around outdoors when it is hitting nearby. We ended up getting drenched by the time we made it to the car. The rain came in a downpour. The kids were squealing. I told the kids not to run because the water was about 2" deep and we were going over rough ground. I reminded them they would not melt. ANYway, we arrived home safely but totally soaked and with some good memories made.

My 5x5 =
1.Take kids to homeschool classes
2. Pump extra water out of plant containers.
3. Try the new BBQ place that a DFriend is opening today
4. Contact septic guy
5. Menu planning & calendar updated.

Where is CathyS????
1. Know what you want.
2. Go after it relentlessly.

One of the gift bags for this shower tomorrow was too small, so I need to return and try again. I will try to do that before I head to temple. I'm going to pack and address the envelope with photos for dnephew and dniece as a substitute for my list completion. I also registered today for a week long genealogy institute in June too. Trying to get my mojo back. :D

And on to the two planters in front...

I'm lurking more than posting these days LadyM!

Hi.

I've been doing a lot of cross stitching because the cats are starting to look like cats.

We are going out for supper tonight to our new favourite fish and chips place in St. Catharines.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SADIE!

A couple nights ago when I was here very very late I saw her "light" on, so she is around. I hope she comes out of hiding!

Some organizing stuff at my desk done. I am working in the master closet and the dresser back there. I'm having to figure some stuff out so it's slow going.

2 phone calls took some time. DGSon and DSis! :lol: :lol: Come on in and talk to us!!

Happy Birthday Sadie!

Hello to everyone.

5 x 5 is always works well for me. If I have a day where things can happen as they may I don't usually follow a list. However, there are days when I have to work around a planned event such as Dr. appointment, etc., then the 5 x 5 is followed more closely.

My loose 5 x 5 today:
load of laundry; wash, dry and put away
start weekly cleaning: sweep and mop floors
brush dog
desk work: gathering important paperwork, making copies
call dcousin RE: lunch date next week confirming day and time
Extra:
more research on future city

I had a lovely phone call with dsis this afternoon; always happy to talk with her. I also had a phone call from ds#2-J who was on his way home from work. He will be here tomorrow after his half-day work to do some yard work.

Ds#3-T called last night on his way to pick up our dgson17 from a JrROTC event. He wanted to let me know that he had the results of his MRI on his left hand that he had hurt more than a month ago. He has a torn ligament in his wrist and will need surgery. There is some cysts that showed up also that he hopes will be taken care of at the same time. He has to call surgeon on Monday for office appointment. He also told us that ddil-A's dmom was in the hospital and had surgery yesterday for infection and perforation of bowel; they're not sure just how long she will be in hospital.

Lady M, so happy for you with good news on your tests!

Yesterday I said to dh that we should go grocery shopping early before the storms that were predicted for our area started. We were out by 11 am and home again by 1:30. The rain started just as we finished supper and we had lightning and thunder off and on till 11:30 p.m. We got a fair amount of rain, but we've had worse summer storms than this one.

DMinnie is looking at me with pleading eyes...I think she's telling me she wants her supper! And I need to decide on what we are having also....
