Finally Friday

[scattered]

Good Morning Villagers.

I was supposed to get up an hour early but that didn't happen so now I am in a crunch. Have 15 minutes left to finish packing for the weekend and get out to work.

Got just about everything except costume and laptop packed. DP's DH is picking up DS13 tonight and heading to NC with the boys, DP and I will be heading down together when we get off work at 7pm.

Have a great Day!

Good Morning!

Scattered - I hope you have a great weekend away!

Another commitment filled day. Need to remember the time slots that are not filled and are available to get some cards done.

Between now and noon -
** Repeat Mammogram this morning.
** DH will take LO to school. Today is LO turn to bring snacks. Red velvet cupcakes are packed and ready for them to take.
** Stop by lawyer office and leave a check.
** Buy LO some smaller pants. He lost weight when he was sick and now his pants literally fall off......sliding down when he runs.

Got up early this morning because ds was dropping by between 7 and 7:30. He's now come and gone. While waiting for him I stripped and remade the bed, put the sheets in the washer and mended three pillow cases and a shoe bag.

I'm just finishing up my tea now.

A very good start to the day but I'm going to write out my schedule again. Things kind of fell apart yesterday but I still got lots of things done in spite of measurable pain.

Today is to be sunny and almost 70 so outside chores are our priority but only until 10 when dh leaves for a movie with ds.

Edited to add: the Sunday School Curriculum has been found. Someone was out for a walk, had her keys, went in, saw it and decided to teach this week. She hasn't been in church yet this fall so I didn't think to ask her. So that's one less thing for me to do today.

Good morning! It is nice to have a more low-key day ahead of me. though last time I said that, I ended up going on a little 3 hour trip!

I am still far behind on everything but hoping to make a little headway today.

Today: I do have WW at 9;30. My weight will be up; I've been eating b/c I've been a little on edge lately, and I have not been exercising as I should be due to scheduling difficulties. Also, I ate too much at dd17's party last night. Then, Dd14 has a Dr. appt. at 3:20. I swear, these kids keep me going to medical appts. on an almost weekly basis!! Last week, I took ds and dd14 to the dentist. I also took Lily to the vet. Next week, dd17 has a dentist appt. - and I have a dentist appt. The week after, there is a break - no medical appts. on the calendar. The following week, dd14 does her blood draw and then goes back to the dermatologist. That is a monthly appointment for her. Today's appt. is for some back pain; b/c she was diagnosed with mild scoliosis this summer, I want to have the pain checked out.

Later today, I think I may need to take dd17 to the church for the retreat departure. I'm not sure when that would be, probably 5:30 or 6. I also need to buy 2 bags of apples to go on the retreat. I forgot this when I went to the groc. store earlier this week.

So, right now, I'm going to s2s and work on the a.m. routine until I leave for WW.

Glad you had a 'find', Kathryn. My finds yesterday sure helped me feel better!

BS this morning at 6 was only 63 and I was definitely feeling it. Took meds with juice & had a slice of cheese.

Another dneighbor is in the roadway hooking up his truck to his MH -so another one will soon bite the dust. Think he's the last one on this side (other than us). I didn't think they were leaving until tomorrow. Originally they were slated to be here at least another week.

It's nearly 10 and I'm still not s2s. Need to go do some minimal shopping -but definitely needed. Picking up pepperoni & cheese for pizza night at DS-A's Sunday. This will be our final get-together for this year. Our church Smorgasbord is tomorrow night -need to make scalloped onions (for 30) for that. Thinking about making them in my crockpot so they stay hot. Can't figure any reason that wouldn't work.

Have a bunch of dishes to do (since I cleaned out our fridge yesterday). Just couldn't get the oomph to do them last night. Also have to clean out our deck fridge so dh can get that wrapped later today. So that will be first on my agenda. I see a lot of beverages going to DSs Sunday.

I'm off>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Happy Anniversary to the Atlantic Flyers!

Good morning! I need to head out to my dmom's soon. I slept in a little later and have walked the ddogs and left dMacs at the vet for an ultrasound today. I know I have a lot on my li&t but I haven't even looked at it yet.

I've got the laundry out on the line and s2s but aside from that, I'm still distracted. I took a photo of my laundry (my idea is to make four season shots of my laundry my facebook cover shot so I'm starting with autumn.) The camera wasn't working right, it would shoot but not record. So I've spent 45 minutes trouble shooting that. I eventually backed up all the photos on the SD card (all photos here are backed up in two places) and then I formatted the card to give it a fresh start.

I like my laundry shot.

Good morning, villagers ~
I'm getting a slow start for a Friday. Woke up much too early but got up anyway so I wouldn't disturb DH. Did a few chores and checked FB until DH left, then I went back to bed. After another hour of sleep, I got up again to see what looks like a gorgeous October day. I know it's cold outdoors, but it's sunny right now and that makes all the difference.

I'm going to drink 1 more cup of coffee before s2s.

Today is errand day.
* Library to see if everyone has paid for silent auction items from last weekend.
* Hopefully a bank deposit for the library.
* Pet store for cat food.
* Used book store because I have a coupon that will expire soon and it's next door to the pet store.
* Lunch.
* Goodwill store (if I don't take too long in the book store) because I have to drive right past it.
* Gas in the car because I forgot to get it the other day.
* Sam's to pay the bill.
* WM for groceries.

Just checked a local news site for forecast. Yes, I will need to wear a coat. Brr!

Morning y'all

Woke up this morning feeling better, but I'm not over it yet. Gonna take it easy today and do a little at a time. It was 48* here this morning......finally!!!!! Stood out in my backyard trying to breath it all in. If I stay feeling as well as I do at the moment, will take Willis on a long over do walk.

Chicken turned out great. My. Brother makes beer can chicken on the grill all the time. You can google the recipe. However I cooked as my brother taught me.....preheat grill on high. Cook chick on high 15 min, turn grill down to low, continue cooking chic for another 45 mins.or 180* internally.

Time to start picking up footprints....got a lot to do. Cya'll later
