Good morning, everyone, and happy Sunday!

I'm not sure Peaches has made it over here.

We're also still missing Dogged, although hopefully she'll find us when she has a day off, and also Decaf and Kitkat. I don't know if anyone has an email address for either of the last two, or some other way if getting in contact? There are a few other ladies who posted almost exclusively in the Coffee House thread, but I think AFlyer has been in contact with them.

Today will be church, with one of my favourite visiting preachers (our church is without both a vicar and a curate ATM. The previous vicar retired and there were some long-standing "political differences" that had to be settled between us and our daughter church before we could even start to put an application pack together to attract a new incumbent. Fortunately we have a very good supply of visiting preachers. )

Afterwards, I'll be visiting DF E 99 for coffee and a good catch up (I haven't seen her for a few weeks as she's been unwell). Then home to sort out lunch, and hopefully a quiet afternoon

Happy Sunday!
good night, gma, you really ought to be in bed by now!
have a good one at church, kittykatt!
helia asked yesterday about our family movie - we did second part of Hunger Games. All kids are really invested in the story, and even DBD, who tends to fall asleep during movie nights, was up till 11! And she's all like "I wish I was 19 at the movie!" and the twins are like "Oh, now we get why Haymitch is trying to drink himself to death when he has to witness this year after year" and DS, who prefers to be in bed by 9:30, hasn't been complaining about the movie running late, so it's a huge hit with all of them

Skipping church today. I really hope I will feel better tomorrow, as I have three in-person meetings at work. Poor DH has caught the bug too and had a rough night
Priority for today will be getting caught up on school, some limited gardening, getting the house in working order for the upcoming week, and if possible, also paperwork. My taxes are due March 31 and I haven't gotten started on them! Come to think about it, I don't think I've actually received the wage confirmation - it's handed out second half of February, but given I had a week's vacation and ever since have been in office only two days a week, it's entirely possible that when HR was doing the rounds, I just wasn't there.

* * * Good Morning! * * *

trissie, I hope DH and you are on the mend soon. Our taxes here can be delayed until early June. A good opportunity to procrastinate ! I hope you can get all the paperwork sorted out.

Kittykatt, have a good time at church and with your DF ! Serendipity, hmmm... Clearing ou the clutter in DS6's bedroom this morning ended up with him redicovering some forgotten toys and unboxing things all over again. Is serendipity any good when it comes to house cleaning tasks ?

Hi Gma !

It's grey but still mild today. We may have a family walk on the beach, or just time on a beach, later today. Some house chores this morning. Yesterday was a nice evening, France won the Tournament indeed (thanks helia but I don't deserve any congrats for staying on my couch watching the players struggle and sweat ) and DS9 was still awake to enjoy the ceremony, past 11pm.
Today, some catching up on house things, some time outdoors to breathe fresh air and hopefully have a clearer mind. And I will jot down a few things and facts before tomorrow's work meeting with boss and boss's boss, and MrNG is sowing flowers to attract bees, and planting potatoes.

TADAs
up after short night (thinking and worrying, and growing new grey hair every hour)
all fed
vacuuming and sorting toys and the kids' bedrooms
cooking lunch - sweet potato and regular potato mash, fish in oven, not sure if I add dessert

TODO
eat, clean-up
decide which sea shore spot we will be hitting, enjoy fresh air and sunlight daylight
find serenity ?
prepare week ahead
check the past week's to-do list and prepare next week's to-do list
post weekly to-do list here, somewhere ? (I'm not sure there is a Payroll She thread)

Good morning!

kitty ~ I let Dogged know about the move in the last couple of days. She responded back. She's familiar with a lot of names here. I also posted on the Lenten thread as they seemed to be off by themselves. I think everyone on currently active threads has had a head's up.
trissie ~ ugh... Sorry you guys are sick. Hoping you have a quick recovery. How fun that the movie series is such a hit!
hey, Gma!
FFB ~ do you live right on the beach? That sounds lovely.


It was a little sad checking in on the SHE Forums - and no "new posts" ~ but VERY happy to have a new community. I'll check in daily for activity until it shuts down.

Had a wonderful friends' night out last night. A df of ds/M's - who's now become like family along with his wife - decided to cook steaks for his close friends on his birthday. OMG.. so good! Li'l H was there with a friend. That's always a joy spending time with her. She'll be here this afternoon. It's been a couple of weeks..... Trying to decide whether to run to the grocery store this morning.....

Okies... off for awhile to do nothing except drink my cuppa.

Morning girls…

It fun to see where your day will take you.

I post my days list, but not as detailed as you, mainly because some of my tasks are included in a category like … morning routines and picking up my footprints, a term my husband created for me. Long ago he said to me… I know where you’ve been in the house cause you leave things behind. He was referring to my coffee cup, mail, hair clips, etc.

So that’s the sort of things you will see on my daily list in no particular order.

So today
Morning routines
Strip my bed and remake it
Wash sheets
Back exercise
Remove footprints
Take care of my sunnies
Work on my garden

Most of us girl know sort of where we all live..I was living in Arizona for many years and now live on the west coast of FL.

We are a curious bunch…let us know where y’all are from…
