Had trouble getting here first thing this morning but I'm in now. Having a truly lazy morning.

Thanks for the musical start, trissie. I recognize that piece - but not the composer's name. Need to get those connected. How nice that DBD can take an art class!
You have been productive, Doggedly! Your vacation is coming up!
Nice you could spend the morning outside, Kitty. This website has been having some issues lately. I'm in now but had trouble earlier.
Fresh berries sound great, Lauralind.

Today, I have no meetings/ appointments on my calendar!! Nice after the weekend that was full of get togethers. I plan to get in a jog, a trip to the grocery store, and visit my mom. I'd also like to finish the change of address cards and a couple things re: paperwork for my mom's health care. A start on exam prep and working on the brain dump list would be good too.

Good afternoon!
I see the boards were down this morning, so was I. It’s not easy getting back to routines when bare minimums have been the protocol for several days.
A quick what I’ve been up to… dd came home, lovely visit, then dh and I left for 3 days while she house/pet sat, spent a day with her, Saturday was tribal elections so went to that, they do it up big, serving food, entertainment, and kiddie rides, before sending dd back to Tuscaloosa. Dh and I visited a couple of the tribe’s casinos and enjoyed the getaway. Found some lovely thrift shops, one three stories of a mall full of “treasures”, a little overwhelming, we didn’t make it 1/3 of the way through so will have to go back and keep digging away at the finds. I found a cool 70s pic on fb marketplace so met up with someone to get that, her friends new thrift store (coincidence to what we did all week), shopped some more before spending the evening trying to get back in a work frame of mind. Apparently I failed haha. Dh just got home, ate a late lunch and left for dr appointment. Now I really need to get my mojo revved up. I’m sorry I haven’t caught up with all of your news but will do it as I go along.

Hi there, Bama! Is your family of First Americans origin, or did you just go for the rides?

Hello, everyone!

Fresh berries sound delicious, Laura -what kind are they?

Enjoy your less scheduled day, Helian!

Bama, you've had a lovely few days away!

Trissie, spaghetti carbonara is a firm favourite in the KittyKatt household too.

Hi, Peaches!

I'm finished for today. Upstairs is clean and tidy, and I have also found DH's Bluetooth speaker and his computer glasses that he had lost. Time to give Matilda her anti-inflammatory med and then off to nest.
