HRH and dd have made a pizza. We'll watch an "Are You Being Served Again?" and then settle in for the new "Big Bang Theory". 2nd load of laundry just hung to drip dry.

wouldn't it have been nice that we all could meet at d Kathryn's church d helia
came back from movies with d mil.. we had a lovely time at lunch and then saw Les Miserable - We loved it! Can't wait to get the cd eventually (trying to control the impulse buying).

Really fun
no work done ended up with a headache but thank Goodness for Tylonel
Really proud of my dmom as she has been so good about just enjoying the time with the girls instead of making comments. keeping fingers crossed- girls said she has been so kind!

I'll keep praying that things stay that way, dblessed!
Can I scream yet? I thought I had a good week & a half before Annual Reports had to be to our secretary up home. Seems she published the wrong date for the meeting. According to our by-laws it's mandated to be the 4th Sunday of January, she published the 20th. That means I now have to have everything done and to her by Tuesday morning at the latest. This is so they can go over everything, get it printed and collated.

I've been 'at it' for over 7 hours solid so far today. Have a bunch of reports not even in yet. I was supposed to go to Parrish, FL on Saturday for the day. Not happening. DD is going with dh in my place. (It has been decided to stay with the 20th). Can we say P R E S S U R E?????
Just finished dinner -very good! Felt bad that I didn't get it cooked myself. DD & DH worked on her DMIL's yard all afternoon. Looks nice from pictures. It was terribly overgrown. I know how much her dmil appreciated it.
Need to recharge my computer -2nd time today. Going to relax for a little bit while it does. Can't work in the morning -have to be at our church here to do the bulletin.

Waving to ya'll...
Didn't sleep very well last night so I sort of dozed while watching some tv this afternoon. Very unusual for me. Made dinner, cleaned up and then Sweetie and I took the doggies for a walk. Winds were still blowin, but I loved every minute of being bundled up and walking. I think about these days in the summer.

Need to take it all in before it disappears.
Harmony...I have a Gazelle Glider in my office and I'm about to get on it as soon as I finish here. Thanks to who ever mention laundry...I forgot I have a load in my washer and need to flip it.
Need to put away my washed dinner dishes and flip the laundry...Nitter's to ya'll...g'day to Lynlee. Cy'all later ...

I wanted to say hello to everyone. I enjoyed reading today's posts and I like
Lynlee's A-Z quotes opening.
I woke up in the middle of the night and couldn't get back to sleep so read for a little while. Finally drifted off and slept till 9:30 am, so got a late start on my day. I did a quick pick-up through MBrm, living room and dining room and cleaned up kitchen while dh went to Sam's to pick up an rx refill. I watered the three house plants and a few out on the front porch.
This afternoon we took all the frozen cookies we had left out of the roasting pans they were frozen in and transferred to ice cream tubs. We condensed the 9 roasting pans down to 5 tubs and fixed one big tray (back in freezer) to give my dcousin when she comes to visit and one smaller tray for us to nibble on.
Ds#2 & ddil gave us a few lottery tickets for Christmas and I checked the numbers today for yesterday's drawings. None of our numbers matched!

Oh, well.
It's been gloomy all day and finally rained a little around suppertime. Temp is at 63* now.
Lilac, I always thought the house looked bare also when the decorations are put away, after being used to all the bright colors of the holidays.
((Dee)), That's a lot of work in a short time. Our annual conference used to be in May so there was always a little more time to get ready - and not by long distance. You do an outstanding job with all you do!
MT, new kitchen sounds really nice!
Happy Birthday Suzlew! Hope it's been a great day for you!
Waving hello to everyone!

Sunny, thank you for checking our calendar for special dates. I always hate when we miss someone's birthday or anniversary.
Happy Birthday Suzlew!

Hubby got the chicken door hinges and a latch on the inside of the coop door on tonight so that freed up some space in the coop; don't have to have the bale of hay holding the door in place but did loose the insulation it was providing. The chickens waited to go into their coop at dusk.
The chickens were milling around the run and using the outside nest boxes for warmth waiting on us. As soon as we finished up with this and cleared tools out and put the roost ladder back up they lined up and piled in to the coop.
Red the roo's days are numbered he's been picking on [pecking] the hens. Ack! That's not good news.
The ones that lay green eggs have not been producing this week but others have been; to make up the difference for it. And interesting development don't know if it's the cold crowded coop, New Year's Eve celebrations of fireworks in the neighborhood or something else maybe they just like it outside better. It's supposed to warm up to the 40* by the end of the week so they can go back to the other roost if they want and that will free up some room.
We had boiled eggs this week enjoying having them for tuna salad sandwiches & for breakfast as well. Dgd got to collect two eggs today on different trips they were so excited they called their dad!
Granny duty has been watching some civil war movies with dgson here this week.
I got the dishes done [again], cooked up the pumpkin and got 3 gal. out of the big one! This morning I vacuumed the living room and swept up the dust bunnies in the laundry room when the grand kids were here.
