Hi guys, I have been in a funk for a few days but trying to get back to myself. Busy week, night shifts, dr appt tomorrow, grocery and school shopping tomorrow too. And somewhere in there I need to move furniture out of the bedroom we're redoing for Ali, shampoo the carpet and get the walls ready to paint. Have the littles coming over Friday night too. But I will try to pop in more! Big hugs and positive vibes to all! ❤

Thinking of you ((( @cat ))) one job at a time, my friend... things are easier when you think of them separately. (maybe a little delegation too if you can...)  

You could take the red eye over and shampoo the rugs for her...🤗😊🤗

Dammit Triple O, if only you'd caught me before I sold it to buy toilet paper....
Think man, think!

Today I was going to go out and do the usual watering of the garden but surprise! Mother Nature beat me to it.

I'm thinking of starting a new plant that is a perennial from seed even if it's not spring - I like to experiment

Picked up three bags of dirt yesterday from Pollock's Hardware, did some grocery shopping and last night attempted to crochet a face mask. It looks okay but might need a bit of tweaking today. I can unravel the top and make it a bit bigger so it's not so tight.

Hope everyone is having a really great day today!

I chose the WTF button Scott but actually this is pretty funny! (And yes I did adjust the mask - it's really just decorative). I have to wear a disposable mask with it. I also put a pipe cleaner up at the top - just wove it through the stitches

I'm all ready to go to Wally Mart now!

@cat hope things are perkier for you today. 

Tell me something fun.  What would be your dream vacation if you had time and all the money in the world and Covid was back in its hole?

What would you do? Where would you go? Who would you take with you?

A log cabin, deep in a forest and near a small lake. A companion dog. All my TBR books, a kindle for additional books,  a source for music. Well stocked pantry. Total serenity.

Things are going better. It has been tough to get out of vacation mode and back into real life, never ending chores mode. 😉 

I have many places I would love to see.  But I am terrified of airplanes, so all the money in the world would have to make me forget that first. 😄 

But, that aside. I would love to see parts of Germany. That is where my family is from and hubby has done some research, there are still people with my maiden name there, and there is a bar or tavern or something with our name on it. I would like to see that. My husband's family is also from Germany and it would be interesting to see our origins.

I also have strong german ancestry.  Maybe we're related?

....easy choice.....Kansas, to do the one last Kon.....but since that didn't transpire, I have always wanted to go to Ireland and immerse myself in the culture....would take the Blonde Bombshell, so she could mind my pints and quarts.....

I would host all my family, friends (including all you fine folk!) and anyone else who(m) would like to come at The Mount Washington Hotel here in NH.For at least an entire month in summer and again in winter. Get the best it has to offer that way.😊

Grumble grumble.  Ok thanks.  Who the hell schedules an interview for 4:30pm on a Friday in a City?

That's a grand hotel indeed!  Have you stayed there @Out of Order?

.....define "stayed".....raiding the beer cellar I hardly think qualifies as "staying".....

Reading.  Reading.  and more Reading.  

Plucking my eyebrows and these rogue hairs that taunt me from my upper lip.

Staring at the heat waves off my patio. 

Avoiding scrutinization (is that even a word?) of my feet wondering how the hell they got in such ghastly shape.

Stuffed myself like a butterball turkey and now thinking about a nap.  A serious nap.

....being pissed off....that's what fat boy is doing......a second case of CoVid has popped up at work and now we're going back to mandatory 12 hour shifts and all the shite that comes along with it......someday, I might have a life again....not trying to be Donnie Downer here, but DAMN!.....

Not right. What are they going to do when the watchers and caretakers are sick?
