Uma Karuna Thurman (born April 29, 1970) is an American actress. She has performed in a variety of films, from romantic comedies and dramas to science fiction and action films. Following her appearances on the December 1985 and May 1986 covers of British Vogue, Thurman starred in Dangerous Liaisons (1988). She rose to international prominence with her performance as Mia Wallace in Quentin Tarantino's 1994 film Pulp Fiction,[1] for which she was nominated for an Academy Award, a BAFTA Award, a Golden Globe Award, and a Screen Actors Guild Award for Best Supporting Actress. Often hailed as Tarantino's muse, she reunited with the director to play the main role in Kill Bill: Volume 1 and 2 (2003, 2004),which brought her a BAFTA Award nomination and two additional Golden Globe Award nominations.

Good morning, everyone, and happy Thursday!

Good to see that KitKat has found us! The kitties are all well, thank you for asking. 😀

L.Ann, it must have been the day for kitchens yesterday, and I didn't want to do mine either! But, I'm with you, and the thought of coming down to it undone the next morning is not a happy one!

Gma, unfortunately Openreach are the only company (at least round here) who actually do the fibre installation. I think part of the problem is that when we had ours done OR used only OR employees., whereas now, they subcontract a lot of the work and the results are ... variable. And also, of course, there is the problem of the lack of communication between the back office, who don't update their maps to show real life, and the people working on the ground. There are several companies who you then have your actual contract with to provide the internet service. Dnextdoorneighbour C is using the same company as us, but our experience has been very different.

Thinking especially for Helian today, as her DMum is moved to the new, nearer NH. Prayers for a smooth, uneventful journey.

Today is going to be church, followed by coffee, and hopefully some time in my garden this afternoon, if it stays dry. I need to be OTD early.so need to get moving!

Good morning all. I need to make this fast. I need to be out the door in about an hour.

Last night, I had dinner with dbro and then shopped for some cushions for Mom to be put on the floor in case she falls out of bed. I also gassed the car.

I slept a little better last night but still not 8 hours. I will probably crash at some point, Friday night maybe, and sleep many hours.

Next:

Later:
- pack up: clothes, toiletries, electronics
- pack up: cooler, snacks, nonperishable food items
- strip bed

- DRIVE to the nursing home in MI, about 5.5 hours
- bring necessary stuff up to her room
- unpack stuff in her room
- make her bed
- home; unload car
- unpack food items
- dinner at some point - no idea what

Done with work for the day. Far from done with everything I had planned, but a major project was completed and sent for peer review. It's something that I started on in... geesh, September 2023? but it was a very complex issue and I am pretty happy about the way it all now works together. Called DH and he is flooded with new issues at work, so he wants to stay later, hence no movie theater tonight. No problem with me, I haven't done anything downstairs this week and I need to get groceries, so we can just order pizza and binge watch some of the shows on our looooong list instead!

L.Ann, yummy foods on the list as always! I think I had a good orzo salad recipe, that was not suitable for kids, so I may try that!
Who you having for dinner on Sunday, kitkat?
helian, I think that after all that stress, a crashing down is pretty much guaranteed! Safe travels today!

Good morning! I’ve finished my dailies so allowing myself to read and post. :D

Kittykatt, Thurman Thursday is very clever. I confess I never have understood Tarantino films.
Trissie, congrats on finishing the project. I’ll have to look up jostaberry, that’s a new one to me.
LAnn, enjoy the walk and the rest of your day, I take it you have a good weather forecast. I never cooked with orzo until recently, probably due to a picky eater in the house, but I tried a recipe with Boursin cheese and chicken and it was delicious.
Kitkat, are you cooking an Easter meal?
Helian, prayers and good thoughts as you travel and get your mother settled in, so many little details to work on.

Today is Paper Day here, there is plenty to so, maaaaybeeee I’ll tackle some of it.
♥ Wake each day expecting good things to happen! ♥
