April 30, 2012

Good morning! It's a beautiful morning. The forecast is for "mostly to partly" cloudy; but there's brilliant sunlight streaming in my window. Today will be upper 70s, and maybe a chance of showers.
Yesterday: It was a sort of odd day, very busy but with things just slightly "out of kilter". There were a lot of minor issues; but they all apparently were resolved. I didn't get as much done in the house as I hoped, but bits and pieces were accomplished. And a lot of work got done in the garden and yard.
Today: The supply order has already come (very early!). In a few hours we'll be leaving for an appointment at Duke. This one is not at the main clinic, but farther away. But, he is usually pretty quick too. I'm just hoping I don't get stuck in that afternoon traffic again! :)

No Photographs

As you can see - if you've looked - I quit trying to keep up with the photographs. Some of the "subjects" were to me awfully silly; or maybe I'm just not creative enough. In any case, I seriously doubt anyone was even looking at them. In which case - really - what's the point?

April 29, 2012

Good morning! It's a wonderful morning. It's very overcast, and the forecast is for mostly cloudy - but no mention of rain. Here in the southern part of the state it'll be warm, maybe even low 80s.
Yesterday: I ended up deciding to stay home and work on making progress on some of the (many) projects I always seem to have going on. I was fairly successful, and managed to check several small items off my list, and get one room mostly back to "usable". It's still some cluttered, because I'm gearing up for a vendor show next weekend - and my supplies have to be *somewhere*! :)
Today: This afternoon I'll have some of the "bonus grands" for a few hours, so I'll have help with a few projects. Hopefully I can bribe them with pudding cups! LOL!

April 28, 2012

Good morning! It's a wonderful morning. It's overcast right now, and the forecast for today is mostly cloudy and possible sprinkles. It'll be "cooler", mid to upper 60s - which is actually very pleasant!
Yesterday: I didn't end up having to "help" with the gardening, so got some bits and pieces done around the house. At the last minute I needed to meet someone in town, so rushed off to do that (and then she was late! LOL!). I had my hair appointment, stopped by for a quick drool in a new shop I love, and then hit the grocery store. At the time I thought I *might* have some of the "bonus grands"; turned out I won't, but it's ok. I spent the evening making lists of all the things I need to do! LOL!
Today: I actually don't really know, which sort of drives me nuts. :) I do have a list of things that need to get done .. at least during the coming week. There's a vendor show in another town, that I'd sort of like to check out ... but, don't need to be shopping! So maybe I won't go to that. It's a gray day ... maybe I'll just take a few hours of the afternoon to myself - and watch a movie! :)

April 27, 2012

Good morning! It's a beautiful morning. At the moment it's clear and bright, and today is to be mostly sunny/partly cloudy. This will be a nice warm day, mid to upper 70s; and no mention of rain - plants will need watering!
Yesterday: I ended up making a quick trip to town, for a refill DH didn't need. I think I need to learn to CALL the drugstore to verify when I get an automated call something is ready! LOL! But, it didn't take too long; and I actually got a lot of projects done! Yay! That's not to say, of course, that my house is clean; but it's so much closer to being neat and uncluttered ... eventually I will only have things in the house that we use, or really love. :)
Today: I hope to finish up some of the areas I didn't get to yesterday. A bit of gardening may get fit in; but I don't do that very well. That's why I have a "gardener"! LOL! I have an appointment in town in the afternoon, and will most likely take trash (yes, more!!) to the dump on the way and pick up some groceries on the way home again. I'm hoping I can get enough done to go to a trade fair over the weekend - guilt-free! LOL!

April 26, 2012

Good morning! It's a beautiful morning. At the moment, the sky is looking faintly overcast, but bright light is coming in the window. The forecast is for mostly cloudy, occasional showers; and possibly even strong storms by afternoon. And, today it will warm back up to around 80. At least all the recent rain is keeping the plants happy!
Yesterday: We had a long busy day, but other than tiring it wasn't "bad". :) We got to the first appointment on time (pretty remarkable in itself! LOL!), and weren't there very long. It was supposed to be the once-a-month to see the doctor - but apparently that doctor is very bad at time management! LOL! He left, and never came back. We went from there through town to stop at the shop and have water put in the car (which it did NOT need - that was just an excuse for DH to visit his son!). Then we went on to the ortho appointment. That also went fine - 3 more weeks on non weight baring, then go back. We got a take out dinner at the grill on the way home ... and I spent the rest of the day making lists of what to do today! :)
Today: How much of my lists get done today will depend on how quickly I get off the computer and actually get busy! LOL!! Hopefully I really will make progress on actual cleaning, now that I've done all that moving stuff around. :)

April 25, 2012

Good morning! It's a beautiful morning. It looks like we might be on the way back to more seasonable weather (although yesterday despite the forecast, was actually quite nice). Today will be low to mid 70s, partly cloudy, and breezy.
Yesterday: It didn't feel like I got much done, but when I go back over a list I did more than I thought. I got a lot of the clutter under control, some laundry done, and a lot of trash out. Since I had to take trash, I made a quick run to town to hand out some flyers for my upcoming home party. For an early supper, I made "biscuit pizza". It was yummy!
Today: We have a round of appointments today. DH goes for his regular visit to the dialysis nurse this morning. In the afternoon he goes to an orthopaedic doctor to follow up on his ankle. I hope we get a guestimate on how long he should try to keep off of it! I doubt much will get done at home. :)
