March 7, 2012

Good morning! It's a beautiful morning. Today's forecast is for mostly or partly cloudy; right now, though I can see pale gray sky, brilliant sunshine is pouring in my window. It'll be mid to upper 60s, and no rain expected, so a nice day to be outside.
Yesterday: I had a busy day. We rushed around and got out of the house "on time"' but we ended up leaving the function we were attending a bit early. In the afternoon, I did a bunch more "running around" - gas in the car (major OUCH on that! LOL!), pay the rent, get a few groceries. I must say I love my crock pot - dinner cooked itself! LOL!
Today: I *think* today will be calmer, with only one errand to take care of (so far). I really hope to make more progress on my big paperwork project, as well as the "routine" cleaning that I'm a bit behind on this week. I also need to keep working on getting my "office" organized - if that's even possible! LOL!

March 6, 2012

Good morning! It's a beautiful morning. It's clear and bright, wonderful sunshine pouring in my window. Today will be upper 50s, and without yesterday's high winds.
Yesterday: It turned into a bit of a busy day, but with a few quiet "lulls" in between. I got some of the things done I needed. By mid afternoon we had to leave. We had several errands to take care of, ate dinner, and then spent a large chunk of the evening visiting family.
Today: We have more family functions today, but it should be quiet by afternoon. I have no idea what I will get done, because I don't know when we'll get home. :)

March 5, 2012

Good morning! It's a wonderful morning. It's cloudy this morning, and probably will stay mostly cloudy all day; but so far we've gotten no rain. North of me they've got "winter weather advisories", but I'm far enough south that if there's anything it'll be rain. We'll get up to mid 50s today which, while not warm, certainly doesn't mean snow or ice; but they are saying it'll be another very windy day.
Yesterday: I seemed to have a lot of odd intervals of working and doing nothing. :) The boys were only here a short time. I was lazy a lot, but got enough of a spurt of energy to make sure everything was neat; got a cake baked, and dinner prepped. We had company for dinner, then they left for a church meeting, then came back again for dessert.
Today: This morning has gotten off to a very early start with a supply delivery. Since we'll be involved in some family functions later, I will need to get busy, so just as well I got up early. And if I keep saying that, maybe I'll believe it! LOL! Or maybe I'll just go take a nap. :)

March 4, 2012

Good morning! It's a wonderful morning. It poured rain late into the night; and this morning it's still cloudy, but the rain seems to have stopped. They're saying it may start to clear a bit by late afternoon, but the clouds will be back again by tonight. Today will only be around 50, and a bit colder tomorrow. Typically for NC, we get a "last gasp" in winter in March!
Yesterday: The day ended up much busier than I expected. I did get the things done in the morning that I needed to. The afternoon was spent delivering orders, and then just being a bit lazy (too wet to work in the garden) and planning this year's garden layout. Then in the late afternoon 3 of my "bonus" DGSs came over, so the evening was busier than expected! LOL!
Today: I will try to "catch up" with myself. It's not a day for doing housework; but I'll do some general decluttering. Late this afternoon we'll be having company for dinner, so that's pretty much my only "focus" for today. :)

March 3, 2012

Good morning! It's a wonderful morning! I think perhaps the "drought" they've been mentioning is much less of a threat now! Wow, did it ever rain in the early morning hours ... lots of thunder and lightening. Today's high is predicted to be around 70ish, but early in the afternoon; and then the temps dropping. I think it'll be cloudy all day, but for now the rain has stopped.
Yesterday: My day was a bit hap-hazard, which tends to happen when last minute changes get thrown in the mix. I still got all the "must do" stuff ... the things that make the house look presentable if someone were to show up unexpected. I had planned to go to town for groceries, but had to change my timing (which was just as well, since I managed to miss showers that way!). Also, my last chocolate order arrived, so that needed to be sorted and dealt with (although, that's a fun thing!)
Today: I'm trying to line up my days and weeks so I don't schedule anything but basic cleaning on weekends. I want to leave them free for parties, or just relaxing. So today I will get the basics done (dishes, cooking, bed, and a little bit of laundry to finish putting away) and *maybe* drop some trash at the dump. Then I get to go deliver chocolate orders! :)

March 2, 2012

Good morning! It's a wonderful morning. It's a bit overcast now, but not really "dark" ... though it may get there by the afternoon. The high today will probably be around the low 70s, and chances of rain - maybe even storms - by afternoon.
Yesterday: It seems days when we have to go out in the middle of the day become very unproductive. After clinic (an hour), stop at drugstore for refills, trip by auto shop for small repair, and then lunch ... wow, the day was mostly gone. And ALL the energy was gone! LOL! I barely managed to get everything for the evening done and still catch (most of) AI. OK, I admit ... I really like the last guy "in" ... he reminds me of Jason from a few years ago! :)
Today: I thought I was going to stay home and finish up some various projects and spot cleaning. But, the phone's already been busy this morning, and it's looking like I'll have to make a quick trip to town. Oh well, I will get some things done today! :) I won't be going out later since the forecast is for possible storms; so I might as well go on and get grocery shopping done this morning too. :)

March 1, 2012

Good morning! It's a beautiful morning! There are a lot of the "high, thin" clouds, but brilliant sunshine is pouring in my window. We might even set a record high today. The current record is 82 ... and I generally get temps higher than the predicted (80). There's a tiny chance of a morning shower, but the afternoon will be hot and windy. Hmmm ... no trash burning today!
Yesterday: I had a fairly busy day, though I'm not sure it was particularly "productive". I had an eye appointment - nothing going on there except some drops (yay, more eye drops!) for dry eyes. I had a good meeting with my next party hostess. I got the last party orders sent in. In the afternoon I actually made a bit of progress cleaning my "office/sewing room". Wow, I found the floor! LOL!
Today: DH has a clinic appointment today, so probably not a lot will get done. An appointment in the middle of the day tends to chop it up; so we'll probably go from the clinic to the drugstore (just to check for any refills), then to his son's shop, and maybe eat lunch with "the kids". It's sort of a wait-and-see-how-it-goes kind of day. :)
