Well, I give up. I think I will keep the Chromebook -- unless ds comes up with something great to get me a good browser on this laptop. And even then, I think I'll just learn to use the Chromebook. When I opened the laptop just now, it told me I probably needed a new battery. Sigh. It was a generous offer of him, but no, it's just not really going to work, it it? (I'm on the Chromebook now.)
So today, so far, I have slept till noon. I'm sorry -- we were both just EXHAUSTED... but we did finish all the laundry folding while watching Wagon Train last night at 1:30 in the morning, LOL.
I've been to the post office, paid two bills, made dh very upset and anxious by offering to call the kidney doctor to see if they had conferred with the surgeon... (NO he does not want me to call ANYONE, he does not want to THINK about this anymore for at least a few days, would I please not utter the word DOCTOR again until he brings it up???) (In my defense, I thought he HAD brought it up because he was talking about how he dreamed about operations all night. SIGH.)
I've eaten and read the magazine that comes monthly from the electric co-op.
Now, to do --
[ ] exercise
[ ] s2s
[ ] Bible reading, "morning routine"
[ ] dgd's ballgame
[ ] finish setting up planner for 2024
OH, (((
blessed)))... olive oil all over the floor is just as messy as pineapple juice... bless your heart...
My dh is not very adventurous in the kitchen either. And he wants to eat out 90% of the time, (partly because he feels he is supposed to help with clean up after supper and he just doesn't want to deal with it). And actually, though I know it's not the healthiest, I can deal with eating out 7 nights a week... but as you said, I don't want to forget HOW to cook. Which I basically proved I have done with that ham... still shaking my head...
BTW -- what is the Linus program?
Cathy, good that someone is seeing sunshine... it has been so dreary around here the last few days. Someone said we had a bit of snow showers, but of course, nothing stuck -- I didn't even see anything except rain sprinkles. It's supposed to rain a LOT tomorrow, however. DH said he heard we were getting 3".
I can see why you're concerned about the burn hazard across the street. Good luck with getting some action on that!
Yep,
Mystery, you can see I am all in favor of lazy days...
Good for you,
Twins, on a very productive morning, and looks like a productive afternoon!
Dove, 3x5s are certainly being neglected around here. I did get a small bit of planning done last night, but I am another person who will not really feel like it is time to start the new year till the Christmas decorations are all put away. MAYBE this weekend, but more likely the first of next week. DH said he hated for it to come down.
And
Nancy, you are right, the lights are so cheery and cozy on these cold, dreary days.
(DH is REALLY nervous about the surgery, being put to sleep, recovering, etc. EVERYTHING about it scares him... and sometimes I think he is afraid this will be his last Christmas.
I'm nervous too, of course, but I am trying diligently to keep his spirits up and assure him that everything is going to be FINE.
Doing a lot of praying.)
LadyM, yes, the password problem is solved, and I think I'm just going to have to give up on Windows7.
Your spaghetti sounds delicious. That is ONE thing I think I cook well. I do my sauce from scratch and the noodles cook IN the sauce. It's a recipe from the old red and white Better Homes and Gardens cookbook, which my dmom used all my life.
Waving to ALL, because I'm sure I've missed someone... this is as far as Topic Review will take me, and I'm still learning this Chromebook keyboard and mouse, you know, but I think I WILL learn it -- it's only been a week so far, and I haven't used it every day since Christmas. DGD will be thrilled. Plus, it IS smaller than the laptop, so if I want to take it to College Town, it will be easier to travel with.
Hope you all have a great day!!!
