Bloody Hell!!! I’d kind of forgotten how much upheaval was going on. Then again it could just be that at my age my memory isn’t that good.

It’s one minute after midnight here, so it is March!! It feels warmer already, lol.
Shelly Peterson
Today was ok. I’m heading to bed soon to wake up early for the grandbaby to come
Kate Sarsfield
It’s gone midnight so Happy St. David’s Day to Welsh people everywhere! I’ll take a bunch of daffy dillies to Mum’s grave later today. Had a cuppa in a local hotel with a couple of other altos from the choir last night to say goodbye. Going to bed now (hopefully to sleep if I can switch my brain off). Chat again from my new lodgings in Strokestown, Co. Roscommon in a couple of days. EEK!
Sarah L
Quiet day at home. Got up to 64 degrees today. A week ago the high was 15 degrees.
heather
My day is going pretty good I got a lot done today and now I am sitting down to relax. Hope you have a nice day.
l p
the day is going well – lots of things checked off the list this morning list so this afternoon is a little easier. thanks
Ken Ohl
Rough day today just got home from work hard day
Shelly Peterson
It’s Monday, back to the drawing board. Heading to dialysis soon.
Molli Taylor
My day is SO busy today but I have a good schedule written and I am hopeful!
gloria patterson
Sun is shinning temp is going to be 46 today. Waiting on maintenance to come fix the lock on my door. Friday they fixed the hinges but now it will not lock without lifting the door.
End of the month time change will be in 17 days!! Spring is trying
Nancy
My day is going fine so far. I had some warm oatmeal for breakfast. Today is everyone’s favorite checkup … at the dentist!
Polly Hall
heading home from the cottage today, had a nice weekend there.
Kim Avery
My day is just starting but looks like it will be a good one. I can relax until 6 p.m and pick up my son from work.
Michele Soyer
Carnival Monday… jouvert is over soon and back home to rest until tonight.. those days are long gone for me…enjoyed them for many years with my husband….
Kate Sarsfield
Change of plan: removals man just phoned to say that he can’t get here before Wed. morning. That actually suits better!
Kate Sarsfield
Reached for the cat this morning then remembered. One more day of cleaning, packing then tomorrow the internet people will be here to take the router & aerial so I’ll be incommunicado for a day or two. Tomorrow’s also removals day. I’m planning on staying here with a duvet & heater to do the final clean & set off Wednesday morning for the West.
Michele Soyer
Well once again I wish you all the best on the new journey you are beginning…
Tamra Phelps
Well, this has been a mixed month. The weather wasn’t too bad but my ankle has been hurting. I’m just looking forward to saying ‘it’s March.’ That feels like Springtime even if it’s still cold, lol.
Sarah L
Good swim with my friend. Then came home and took a nap.
gloria patterson
Just going with the flow quiet and relaxed did nothing!! Started on my new J D Robb book almost half way through
Shelly Peterson
Today I ran to Costco with my daughter and we went to lunch.
Kari
I’m having a lovely day listening to the livestream on a concert I wasn’t able to attend in person. It certainly makes my day
Nancy
My day has gone fine so far. I had a nice bowl of oatmeal for breakfast. I had some chicken meatballs and rice for dinner.
KaLei
Getting ready for the coming week so having to plan ahead. So far I’m on track.
Molli Taylor
i had a lovely weekend alone and i am ready to face my challenging week!
klp
Today’s going well. Got lots crossed of my ‘to-do’ list. Now for a cup of tea.
heather
I am working around the house today and am already worn out. Catching up on laundry for the week and cleaning time to take a break.
Polly Hall
It’s a beautiful sunny day with a high temp of 34 degrees
l p
so far, it’s a slow start to the day, just as it was meant to be with prayers for this weary world of ours. thanks
Susan Smith
I’m doing good today. It’s going to be in the 60’s this week so that’s something to look forward to. I’m going to be doing some cleaning, laundry and cooking meals to freeze for the week.
Kim Avery
A blustery Sunday. Expecting snow squalls just as its time to pick up my son from work. Of course the one Sunday he’s asked to work.
Kate Sarsfield
I was so looking forward to a lie-in so of course I was wide awake at 6am. It was really weird not to have the cat demanding attention. Anyway, off to defrost the freezer, clean the fridge & clean the bathrooms.
Michele Soyer
The month is almost over and I have no idea where it went… time is swiftly moving on.. got my cup of coffee and checking emails … then off to put a chicken in to roast and read and listen to music.. happy Sunday all.. and Dimarche Gras….
Tamra Phelps
I’m thinking of trying one of those anti-inflammation diets. It’s supposed to help arthritis pain. Worth a try, I guess. I don’t know a thing about the diet, though. I wonder if it would fit in with my usual Mediterranean/low-carbish thing.
Michele Soyer
No matter what Tamra you can add the new diet to your present one – it is all healthy and all good!
Kate Sarsfield
Go easy on acidic foods like tomatoes. Mum gave up chicken & it really helped. Also whenever she had a bad flare-up she drank tonic water. Grapes are supposed to be good as well.
Tamra Phelps
I had no idea chicken affected inflammation! And tonic water is good? Clearly, I’m clueless about this type of diet!! I have to go take a look at it, google it.
Sarah L
Sunshine today and up to 40 degrees. The first day over freezing since Monday. I just had a long sleep and a quiet day after finally getting my WiFi back to working. I didn’t realize just how much I use Alexa until I didn’t have her for a full day and night. My internet has been working fine, just the WiFi on the fritz.
Nancy
My day has gone fine so far. I had oatmeal for breakfast. I have some crispy bacon left over for a BLT sandwich another day!
gloria patterson
Nice day sleep in till 7:00 am I know I know but I usually wake up at 5am. Many many years of doing to get to work on time. And then I got a afternoon nap………….
heather
I spent almost two hours trying to get my new cell phone to work and finally gave up for the day before I freak out and pull my hair out. Seriously, I’ve had countless cell phones in the past and this one is stupid! I am going to to do some fun stuff now to turn my day around. Hope you are having a nice Saturday now where’s a glass of wine.
Polly Hall
At the cottage watching the ice fishermen on the lake.
Shelly Peterson
I slept terrible last night. Today I am going to lunch with family.
clynsg
Quiet so far–just about everyone else has gone to an estate sale.
Kate Sarsfield
What a day. I got lost taking the cat to his temporary new home, had to cancel a goodbye lunch ‘cos I was running so late, and got home to find my bin full of my sister’s rubbish. Dear God, it made me so angry I got a headache. I know that in the greater scheme of things that this is petty, but it’s my last bin collection on Monday and I’ve got more than usual plus I pay for the bloody thing. I stood in the garden and screamed my head off and many an expletive was roared into the wind.
Tamra Phelps
Is it wrong that I’m laughing at the idea that possibly someone was outside hearing you scream in your garden??? I’m picturing the conversation he/she had at home when they relayed the story of Crazy Kate spewing expletives in her garden…Seriously, don’t let yourself get too stressed with this move. But I know that’s useless advice. Moves just are stressful.
Michele Soyer
We are under a green level weather alert and boy is it pouring.. no wind as yet and for that I am grateful… Have my coffee and my book until later if it passes by….
Tamra Phelps
My left ankle hurts (arthritis). My right knee hurts (left over from the sepsis,) My right arm hurts (the sepsis leftovers again.) And now I have a pinched nerve radiating pain down my left arm. Damn. Y’all I don’t have a single GOOD limb anymore…I have to laugh. ?
Michele Soyer
Oh Tamra…laughter is the best medicine…please take something for all that pain…
Kate Sarsfield
I’m sorry, I shouldn’t laugh but I am!
Tamra Phelps
It’s okay. I’m laughing, too!!
tammy ta
My day was quiet today and went by quickly as usual.
Sarah L
Good swim with my friend. Then to the library, then to see the vampires (otherwise known as phlebotomists)
Shelly Peterson
Today was a dialysis day and I’m super tired. I’m ready for the weekend
Sharon Rooney
It was good day and it’s Friday.
Have a great weekend.
heather
I had to get a new cell phone today because of all this upgrading crap and I am not happy about it! My old cell phone was not 4G compatible and I really liked that phone. So now I have to set up this new phone and learn all the crap about it not happy!
Sue D
I had a full day. Shopping and crafting and now relaxing.
gloria patterson
Good day got my apartment door fixed didn’t know it was broke. Just though the hinges needed WD40
Got high of 35 today and a little rain BUT spring is coming
Kate Sarsfield
Just got my mail re-directed for 3 months to my sister’s house down the road. The cost? €90, that’s over $120 – sheer bloody madness. Trying to get my head around Putin’s behaviour – more bloody madness.
Tamra Phelps
You have to pay to have your mail sent elsewhere???? That’s insane! Putin’s reason is the same as his reasons always are: he thinks there’s something in it for him and screw anyone else who might get hurt. I have given up looking for sane reasons for his choices. It’s a hopeless search.
Polly Hall
My son’s windshield wiper linkage broke today, good thing for YouTube and my husband and son being handy so they could fix it themselves
Kim Avery
I’m trying to find the energy & strength to start shoveling then clearing off car. I’m just so tired & sore but can’t find anyone who wants to help.
Nancy
My day has been going fine so far. It is foggy today. I am having fondue later today.
clynsg
My personal day is going well, except that it is a little cold for Oklahoma–it probably shouldn’t bother me since I am originally from Minnesota, but I am always colder than everyone else in the family! Otherwise, it is depressing that I am watching a land grab on the news.
Michele Soyer
Sitting here with clear memories of the Cold War…in the early to late 50’s in grammar school going down to the bomb shelters on drills every week.. I pray hard for the people of the Ukraine….
Tamra Phelps
Oh, I remember as a kid being so anxious about nuclear war and the Soviet Union…Remember ‘duck & cover’ drills? Like hiding under a desk was going to save us…
Molli Taylor
today was a good day! time with the kids, snow on the ground!
l p
this day is a day that causes me to pause and take stock of all that is happening, be grateful for what I have, and think of how I can make a difference. thanks
Karen R
My day is okay. After I went to Target to pick up bread for sandwiches and was shocked by the price increase, I decided to shop around more often. This from someone who hates shopping of any kind.
Tamra Phelps
Rain, rain, rain. All day. Oh, well, I had nowhere I needed to go, so let it rain.
Nancy
My day has gone fine so far. I had a special tea this afternoon. I made egg salad for dinner.
Sarah L
Sun is finally shining. Got all the way up to 25 degrees. I stayed home.
Natalie
I feel rested today because I was able to get a ton of sleep last night!
heather
My day was going pretty good until I got online and heard the news of the day now I am so sad for the people of the Ukraine am praying for them. I am also worried about gas prices yesterday the cheapest was $4.09 per gallon in my area now I am sure it is going to skyrocket.
Polly Hall
So sad about what is happening in Ukraine
Sue D
Getting ready for a card making session at church tomorrow.
Michele Soyer
After a few days of rain the sun is out bright and shining – the sky is a lovely shade of blue and I am outside in the garden…
Kate Sarsfield
I’m cold and tired. That’s all. Oh, and worried, that too.
Tamra Phelps
That pretty much sums it up, I think! Right there with ya!
Shelly Peterson
This old lady is worn out.
tammy ta
My day was a little busy. It went by fast.
Kim Avery
I had a very eventful day. Yesterday the landlord calls to say he will be here at 9 a.m to fix faucets & toilet. Spent yesterday afternoon cleaning out bathroom vanity, under kitchen sink & removing shelf over toilet. First they couldn’t get faucet off in bathroom. Then take guts out of toilet thinking they could just replace them. Came back with real cool faucets & whole new toilet. Even a nice goose neck one for kitchen that unfortunately didn’t fit. Then they went to get toilet in place & didn’t fit the seal right. Went back for another & doubled up. Made a complete mess of my bathroom. Used 2 of my bath towels & hand towel to wipe up water. Dumped blue toilet water in my shower that is now stained. Got blue gunk on wall along with dirty fingerprints. Best thng…toilet leaks all over & they won’t come back until tomorrow! Found some maxi pads that I no longer need & using them to soak up the water! I can’t afford to waste paper towels or ruin any more bath towels! We so want to send him a bill! Did I mention they used my husbands tools too?!?!?!?
Kate Sarsfield
What? That’s madness. Talk about ineptitude. Dear God, I am not able to cope with people like that. I wish you (and your toilet) better times ahead!
Connie: The Head Peanut
WHAT THE blankety blank!?!?!?!?!? I am totally speechless. That’s insane. BAD BAD BAD!
Tamra Phelps
I had to laugh at the maxi pads! That’s genius right there!! Those repairmen sound like the type of ‘handy’ men I run into…I think the world might be better put together if women were the ones who usually repair things!!
l p
today is a topsy-turvy day – it has become colder as the day goes on. bring on the coffee.
Tara Enright
My day is going pretty well. I am just waiting for dinner to be delivered and ready to eat. Also going to watch This is Us and attempt to see if anyone has HBO max that I can use to watch a show (:
Tara Enright
My dad is going pretty well. I am just waiting for dinner to be delivered and ready to eat. Also going to watch This is Us and attempt to see if anyone has HBO max that I can use to watch a show (:
Laurie Nykaza
Its cold and windy so were in with coffee and movies today and thats where will stay all day
Sarah L
Another quiet, warm, day inside at home. Got up to 11 degrees outside.
heather
My day is going by super fast today. I had a lot of running around to do in town and should have set out earlier than I did. Now I am just now getting home and getting into relax mode.
Polly Hall
got up early and went grocery shopping this morning, really like it when I get there before it gets to crowded
Kate Sarsfield
I spent the morning contacting the utility companies about the change of address. It’s still extremely windy so I’m trying to do as much online/phone stuff in case the power goes. My sister’s dog has smashed more of my outdoor pots and strewn my ‘green babies’ round their yard but the weather’s too bad to do anything about it. Breaks my heart but have to be pragmatic about it.
Michele Soyer
Yesterday was my husbands birthday….Spent the late afternoon and evening remembering all the birthdays.. 50 of them! LOL…put on Wes Montgomery, Gabor Szabo and the first jazz album we ever listened to together Quincey Jones Walking in Space….. and the first single Rainy Night in Georgia Brook Benton…and yes the tears flowed then I smiled….
Kate Sarsfield
That sounds just perfect, Michele.
Tamra Phelps
I love how connected you two still are. I think on some level, he must still feel it, too. I don’t want to get all ‘cosmic’ or far-out on you, but I just don’t think that kind of energy or connection, or whatever you want to call it, just vanishes. It might change to a different form, but it’s still there. It does sound like a beautiful way to mark the day.
Shelly Peterson
So I started watching my baby grandson today since my daughter is back to work. I have to admit it was kind of a rough day.
Tamra Phelps
So, I went to the grocery today. First time in over 4 years. It was just as tedious & stressful as I remembered, lol.
Sarah L
Quiet day at home keeping warm. Got up to 10 degrees for a while today. Currently snowing with 5 degrees and a wind chill of -15 .
l p
it’s another cooler than average day so that slows things down. one day closer to Spring. thanks
heather
My day is going pretty good so far. We woke up to some much needed snow this morning and it is super cold here just trying to heat the house up before the night sets in.
Polly Hall
Rainy ugly day here in Michigan.
Nancy
Today has started out fine so far. I have some meetings to attend today. Yesterday’s brownies turned out well.
Michele Soyer
Another rainy grey day – suits me fine – staying in and bring the pooch up to keep me company along with the cats!
Kate Sarsfield
Happy Shopping Day, Tamra!!!
As for me, I woke at 6am ‘cos of the storm and it dawned on me that I’ve only 7 days left in this house – eek! My check-up went well yesterday and thankfully my blood pressure is back to normal – phew!
Michele Soyer
Glad you are doing well.. 7 days to go back over memories there.. once again I wish you all the best…
Tamra Phelps
I’m glad to hear your bp is good! My shopping day was okay. My arms and legs will probably feel it tomorrow! (I take the leg rests off the chair so I can maneuver better using my legs)–And I just couldn’t reach a few things, but it was okay.
Kate Sarsfield
That’s what I used to do too, even pushed a wheelbarrow round the garden like that!
Shelly Peterson
This old lady is tired. it has felt like a long day.
Shelly Ruddell
My day is going pretty good so far. Besides the cold weather.
Sharon Rooney
Happy Presidents Day! It’s been a good day 3 day weekend.
l p
today is going well with chores almost completed. time for some fun. thanks
Sarah L
Went out for a couple of errands and the arctic cold is already here. Even a couple of snowflakes.
Kari
It’s a good day here – great company, coffee, and conversation.
KaLei
Things started off a bit chaotic but it’s calm and peaceful around here now.
heather
My day is going pretty good just got home from doing some shopping. I was a little worried about the weather as it was snow a tiny bit when I left the house so I did some quick running around and came back home.
Polly Hall
Excited to have dinner with my girl friends and then play cards tonight
Kate Sarsfield
Another bad storm on it’s way – that’s 3 in a week! Off to the Doc’s later for a last check-up before I leave here.
Michele Soyer
hustling to make breakfast and hang out some clothes and if I have time sanitizing the aviary before school! glad to be back at class today – both with Art History later this day….
Shelly Peterson
I had a great dinner with my family. But I’m still worn out.
tammy ta
My day was okay. Gone by in a second.
Tamra Phelps
What an odd day. I spent to much time looking for an old billfold but it was driving me nuts trying to figure out where I had put it, lol. By the time I found it the day was mostly gone…
KaLei
It’s a great day for baking the bread for the week. They’ll be ready by the time everyone comes home.
KaLei
It’s a great day for baking the bread for the week.
Sarah L
Good swim with my friend. Then a stop at the grocery to pick up my order. The sun is shining and it got up to 64 degrees today. The high on Tuesday will be 14 or 50 degrees colder than today with snow.
l p
whew – the weather just took a nosedive into the frigid zone so it’s a stay home and make soup day. thanks
Kim Avery
Was hoping for a relaxing day of doing nothing but ended up running quick errand for my mother in law. Made a batch of spaghetti sauce for later this week and getting ready to throw a pizza in & call it a day!
klp
We’re having a really good day. It’s cold but the kids are really enjoying being outside making snow-persons. Hot chocolate will be ready when they come in.
Nancy
My day is going fine so far. I made a pot of vegetable soup and it was good. I am about to make some mini meatloaves and put them in the oven.
Shelly Peterson
I ran and got coffee with my daughter to help a local fundraiser. I finally feel good enough to do my sons birthday dinner later.
heather
My day is going pretty good so far. I am getting ready to make lunch am craving a BLT today.
Polly Hall
Just relaxing and watching some shows on the Aztecs
Kate Sarsfield
More wind, more power cuts, more going to bed to keep warm. I cooked a pizza early & had it cold by candlelight! I’ve got a Dr.s appointment tomorrow so I hope to goodness I’ll be able to have a shower!
Michele Soyer
Hope all goes well at the doctor….
Michele Soyer
The sky is grey but who cares.. I am so glad to sit here enjoy my coffee and plan my day of doing nothing but “me” things.. reading, listening to music and a good film later on.. Happy Sunday to all…..
Kari
It has been overcast and dark all day – great for doing those indoor chores with no temptation to get outside.
Nancy
My day has gone fine so far. I cleaned out the refrigerator. I may make soup tomorrow.
Sharon Rooney
It’s been a decent day, I was able to get a lot done around the house.
Glad I didn’t have work today because we had a snow squall come through this afternoon.
Kim Avery
We had quite a few nasty zero visibility snow squalls today. Luckily they happened in between my errand runs/picking up son from work.
l p
the day is going well – managed some good timing. went out for a walk earlier, now it’s raining, and later it will snow.
Polly Hall
So very cold here today, glad it is Sat. and I do not have to be out in it.
Tamra Phelps
Well, I’ve finally gotten fed up with letting others pick out my groceries, lol. Yes, I have scheduled a trip to the grocery. (Listen, when you are in a wheelchair, you have to go by FTSB bus, which has to be arranged 3 days in advance (Sundays don’t count, so 4 days if a Sunday falls in there.) I always feel in the way in this thing. But you know what, I decided places are supposed to be accessible to disability, so let them accommodate me, lol!! I might not be able to do some big grocery run, but I can get the things I’d rather choose for myself. (It’s annoying when you want a small pork roast to cook in beans and they send a 6 pound hulk that would feed a family of 6 at Thanksgiving.) Anyway, Tuesday, for the first time in over 4 years, I’m doing my own grocery shopping (I mean, before the pandemic, I was laid up for almost 2 years, so it has been that long! It was January of 2018)
Michele Soyer
This is wonderful Tamra! So glad that you are doing it… Bravissimo!
Kate Sarsfield
Wow! Kid in a candy shop time! Don’t give in to impulse buying!
Kai
As your word of the day indicates – it’s snow day.
heather
I am trying to have a nice mellow Saturday. I did a lot of running around yesterday and wore myself out. Hope you have a great day.
Natalie
I am having a great Saturday! I worked out, ran to the grocery store and baked cookies!
Kate Sarsfield
We were 10 hours without power! Once it got dark, without light and heat, I just went to bed and slept all night.
Tamra Phelps
Wow, that would have been like 10 hours of living in another century, lol. What did people do before electricity???? Oh, yeah, they went to bed early, lol.
Michele Soyer
I understand we had that this past week.. hope you are alright after the storm…Take care please…
Sue D
Looking forward to time in my craft room today.
Michele Soyer
Sitting here figuring out what I plan to do today – should do laundry and do a bit of dusting but really all I want to do is sit here and go on a virtual tour of an art museum!
Tamra Phelps
It’s Saturday, girl!!! Go to that virtual art museum!!! Laundry will still be there tomorrow or the next day or… lol.
Sarah L
Had a good massage today. Then came home and took a nap.
Shelly Peterson
I hope our snow fall is gone for the year. It’s doing a pretty good job at melting what we do have.
tammy ta
MY DAY WAS BUSIER THAN USUAL TODAY. GREATFUL FOR THE LONG WEEKEND.
Kim Avery
My day started with an inch of ice blocking my door & almost couldn’t get out. Slow drive taking my son to work. Thank goodness it cleared up by the time he was done. Had a surprise announcement that he was going to be trained as an assistant manager. Hopefully he can get things straight with his truck soon because I won’t be able to handle the late night /last minute driving.
Tamra Phelps
I would have been terrified! I hate snow or ice, even if I’m a passenger. Congratulations to your son!
Kari
This day is going really well. I’m sure it will continue into the evening.
KaLei
The day is going well. Whenever I need a break, I can just watch the snowflakes dance outside the window.
heather
My day is going ok. I had a lot of running around to do today and should have eaten more for breakfast as I was pretty grumpy had to get a hamburger at Carl’s Jr. to kill the beast inside lol.
Karen R
The overnight and morning hours were not much to get excited about. It was pouring buckets this morning. I was in pain and didn’t get much less overnight. The sun is shining brightly now. I have a heating pad on my back and hubby is picking up a script. Might save the day, after all.
l p
today is going well – dreaming of what should be planted in the garden. thanks
clynsg
It is supposed to warm up nicely today, and although we need moisture badly I cannot be sorry that the latest storm pretty well missed us.
Polly Hall
It snowed last night a few inches and it is sunny today so it looks beautiful in our woods.
Nancy
My day is going fine so far. It is starting to be sunny. It was so windy last night – the wind just howled all night. I think I heard that the wind was blowing up to 18 miles per hour!
Sue D
Have plans to start seeds today. Looking forward to gardening season.
Ken Ohl
Hoping to have a good day today
Kate Sarsfield
Ugh! I got very little sleep last night it was so windy plus the cat insisted on sleeping on my head. Doing this now (05.15) in case we lose power. That’s storm Dudley over and now Eunice is on her way.
Tamra Phelps
The wind is going nuts out there. And it getting ready to storm. I hate this kind of weather.
Kari
The day has gone well so far. I went out for a walk on a break and it was just great.
Sarah L
My friend called and said she had company from out of town and would not be at the pool this afternoon. I went there anyway and THE POOL WAS CLOSED!!! It may be back tomorrow, but I’ll call first. Sunshine and 35 degrees after yesterday’s 5 inches of snow.
heather
My day is going pretty good just got done paying bills so that was yucky now on to funner things.
Michele Soyer
Yesterday was an interesting day.. at noon the power went.. ok.. I am used to this every once in awhile…no it was an island wide grid outage! Power came back at 1am here in our little village – the earliest came back @ 6pm…investigations continue…..lets see how this plays out….
Polly Hall
Yesterday it was in the 40’s here in Michigan now it’s in the 20’s my feet will not warm up.
l p
today is going well so far. lots to do and a plan to take care of the chores. thanks
Kim Avery
Its been a dreary rainy day. Waiting for the mixed precipitation to start. Luckily I don’t have to worry about driving in it tonight. Tomorrow morning may be a different story.
Kate Sarsfield
So far so good re. organising the house move. Phew! I feel completely whacked and we’ve 2 bad storms on their way tonight & tomorrow so I think I’ll take the evening off.
Michele Soyer
Stay safe Kate!
Sue D
Very rainy today and windy. Good day to curl up with a book.
Nancy
We had an early start today. It is still just getting to be light outside. I hope we all have a great day.
Jenny Esplana
I’m doing good. It’s my Mom’s 65th Birthday today so we will be celebrating her birthday at home. Wishing her good health always and long life to live. I hope I will win this contest so I could bring her out of town and enjoy a short vacation with her. $50 is already a huge amount for us. Thank you 🙂
Tamra Phelps
It’s been in the 60’s here todsy and will be tomorrow. So, of course, it’s going to storm.
Sarah L
By the numbers: yesterday’s high temp was 57 degrees. Today we’re expecting 5-7 inches of snow. I’m just staying home.
Nancy
My day has gone fine so far. I went to an art gallery showing today. I had mussels for lunch.
l p
the day is going well – got all the appointments taken care of and a walk outside in the brisk but bright day. thanks
Megan Allen
Today is my grandmothers and my other half birthday! Have an amazing day everyone!
Polly Hall
Went grocery shopping this morning could not believe how empty the shelves were.
tammy ta
My day started off earlier than usual today. It has been going okay so far.
Kim Avery
Going to be a good day. Just a couple of small errands to run. We are expected some high winds with mixed snow & rain. Thank goodness I’m not going anywhere again until Friday!
Sue D
So happy it is warmer today.
Kate Sarsfield
A busy morning trying to organise everything for moving house. My removals guy is taking his girlfriend to Paris for a week so I’ll probably have to move out the day before the new people move in. That means shifting my accommodation and the cat but I’ll work it out somehow.
Michele Soyer
Up and at em this morning so I can get everything done before class..Art History today.. then out to weed and clean a flower bed.. have to go out tomorrow for an eye appointment so the day will be lost…
Tamra Phelps
More than half way through February. I’m good with that since it means Winter is close to coming to a close.
Sarah L
Went downtown for my infusion. I do not like traffic. Then went to Smashburger for my treats. 55 degrees ahead of a snowstorm tomorrow.
Sue D
Spent most of the day in the kitchen cooking meals for the week.
gloria patterson
good day my great niece (5)was spending the day with her grandmother and she asked to come see me. Her grandmother lives in the same building I do.
Zay brought me a V-Day card she made and asked for my Mac & Cheese
Laurie Nykaza
We have rain today so just cleaning the kitchen and maybe a movie
klp
Today is going really well. We were able to get out and go for a long walk and stop for tea.
Molli Taylor
feeling so sleepy but determine to get things done. how was your valentines day?
Kate Sarsfield
Eek! We have a closing date!!! Thursday 3rd. March – 2 weeks away! Now trying to juggle removal, storage, cat and Bed & Breakfast dates. This morning I lay in bed thinking that if it doesn’t happen soon I’ll go bonkers and now this. I may go bonkers anyway 😉
Tamra Phelps
You have an end in sight! Planning over, doing in progress, lol!! You’ll get it done.
Kate Sarsfield
Oh, Tamra, I’m actually a nervous wreck between worrying & excitement! Time for chocolate, methinks!
Kim Avery
My day is just starting but I’m going to try and take it easy. Once again I’m pushing myself too much and paying the price. I do need to put a light over my sink and that will be it.
Michele Soyer
The Met Office has sent out an alert of dangerously high Sahara dust coming our way this week…. started yesterday and this morning the haze is apparent…keeping myself in after class except to sanitize the aviary….
l p
it turned cold again so going out is very slippery underfoot. Valentine’s Day treats can wait. thanks
Shelly Peterson
Today is just another day. I hope I feel back to myself again soon.
tammy ta
My day went okay. Pretty quiet and boring for work. Got awesome Valentine’s gifts from my husband. So that was great.
Laurie Nykaza
We are watching a movie and my son is making dinner for us.
Sarah L
Happy valentine’s day! I’ll go out tomorrow and get some half priced candy.
Nancy
Happy Valentine’s Day. My day has gone fine so far. It warmed up today.
Tamra Phelps
Well. No valentine for me, lol. So, I bought myself some Reese’s chocolate, lol.
Jodi Hunter
Pretty good thus far, just getting ready to cook supper.
Polly Hall
Nothing special today even though it’s Valentines Day
heather
We are getting a teeny tiny bit of much needed rain today so I am thrilled. Hope you have a great Valentine’s Day.
Megan Allen
Happy valentine’s day! I hope everyone has an amazing day.
gloria patterson

Kate Sarsfield
Happy St. Valentine’s Day! Nothing much happening in my little Irish village, thank goodness.
Molli Taylor
I am spending this valentines day with my kids! i hope it is fun! what are you doing?
Sue D
Have a lot planned today. It is only 4 degrees right now.
Michele Soyer
Happy Valentine’s Day all!! Have a wonderful love filled day – either with your spouse, partner, child, pet…as for me…champagne and chocolate
Tamra Phelps
Bought myself a Reese’s Cup. ?? That counts right?? And tomorrow is National 1/2 priced chocolate day!!
Shelly Peterson
I enjoyed the super bowl and now I am ready for bed.
Tamra Phelps
Not much going on today. Which is fine by me, lol.
Sharon Rooney
Day is going great. It’s Super Bowl Sunday. Lots of snacks while watching the game.
Denise C
The Rams are currently winning, but who knows how long this will last. The Bengals are doing better than I thought they would.
Shelly Peterson
I’m actually feeling good enough to watch the Super Bowl today
Sarah L
We postponed our swim for an hour to watch The Puppy Bowl. Puppies were cute. Swim was good. I did a load of laundry. My friend will be watching the football game, I will not.
Laurie Nykaza
Working in the garden and its 90 outside to staying in the shade is nice not so hot there.
l p
this day is going well. lots of things to do, time to do them in, and a beautiful bright blue sky. thanks
gloria patterson
Got up got dressed and looked out the window it was snowing and 25 degrees. So I decided I was not going anywhere laid down and took a 3 hour nap…………
Julie Bickham
Its a snowy day here. Hope the rest of your weekend goes great!
Polly Hall
Just relaxing at the cottage watching the swans out on the lake
heather
My day is going pretty good so far. I am getting ready to watch the Big Game this afternoon. I am making lots of goodies and lots of dips. Hope you have a great day.
Kate Sarsfield
It’s one of those nothing much going on kind of days today. Suits me fine!
Molli Taylor
I had an early valentine’s date with my husband and I feel ready to tackle anything!
Michele Soyer
Today is an day of total relaxation – put the Sunday lunch in the oven and thats that…Reading a book that I had read when it came out ( my teenage years) in the 60’s to see how I feel about it now – was amazed by it then..well alot of things amazed me then so we shall see…
Kim Avery
Today I’m prepping for tonight’s super bowl food fest. I’m keeping it minimal but still a lot of prep work.
Sue D
Pretty snow is falling today as I drink my coffee and get ready to go to church.
Kath
I was so tired when I got up I thought the whole day would be dragging. But some good news perked things up and the day’s going much better now.
Tamra Phelps
This has been one of those days where I’ve been constantly busy but still feel like I’m getting nothing done and can’t catch up…
Nancy
My day is going fine so far. It really warmed up today. It will get colder tomorrow.
gloria patterson
Was a nice quite relaxing saturday. And a little bit ago my niece and great niece stopped buy with a valintine for me. Nothing like a hug from a 5 yr old to make your day real special.
Sarah L
Quiet day at home. We got about 4 inches of snow yesterday but it’s already melting.
Polly Hall
Up north at the cottage watching all of the ice fishermen
heather
My day is going pretty good just taking it easy this weekend and getting ready for the Big Game on Sunday. I am making lots of goodies and lots of dips.
l p
it’s a chilly, snowy day out there. a good day for making valentines with the kids. thanks
clynsg
As usual, the dogs are going in and out multiple times. We keep talking about a doggy door, but then would have to be concerned about wildlife coming in and cats going out, so haven’t gotten it done as yet!
Michele Soyer
Baking some Valentine goodies – while I am waiting to do the decorations out the crock pot on with a good old fashioned chicken vegetable soup….
Kate Sarsfield
My electricity bill arrived this morning. Bloody hell, prices up by 40%. I use the absolute minimum & do any laundry, dishwasher etc. at night to avail of the cheap rates. I’ve no idea how families are coping.
Tamra Phelps
Same here. I swear it has doubled recently and my heat isn’t even electric so it’s not that…
Michael Coovert
My day has started off well so far. We’ll see what the rest of the day has to bring.
Sue D
Looking forward to a fun day crafting with the granddaughters.
Shelly Peterson
The weather has been nice the last few days. But I still feel like crap.
Kate Sarsfield
Oh no, Shelly. Hope you start to feel better soon x
tammy ta
My birthday today. So all good. Chinese food and chocolate heart cake my two boys made.
Kate Sarsfield
Ooh, sounds delish! Enjoy being spoilt rotten!
Sarah L
Quiet day at home watching the snow fall. Glad I don’t have to go out in it.
Tamra Phelps
My nephew came by today. He got his driver’s license yesterday…and this was his first time driving by himself, lol. I’m proud of him, but also missing the little guy he used to be. How did he get so grown up so soon…
Kate Sarsfield
I saw his pic on FB. Wish the niece would learn!
Natalie
I just got done with work and feeling good! About to go for a walk outside to get fresh air.
heather
My day is going pretty good. I did my grocery shopping for the weekend and I was happy to get some good deals at the store for the big game on Sunday.
l p
the day didn’t start out well but things are much better now. thanks
Polly Hall
We headed up north today and are spending the weekend at the cottage.
gloria patterson
My living room window faces the east so I get the morning sun. I have LOTS of sun catchers in my windows. This morning the sun was shinning and I had a room fun of rainbows.
Kate Sarsfield
God, I’m worn out. Just got back after a very long day but the good news is that the sister’s colonoscopy went well. Still have to wait for biopsy results but the specialist seems pleased. It doesn’t mean that she’s in the clear but if the bowel results are good then he’ll operate to remove the cyst in 2 weeks and then another wait for results. Anyhow, for now it’s so far, so good.
Tamra Phelps
Good. I’m glad to hear that, all things considered, it looks like it can be handled. ?
Kate Sarsfield
Hope so!
Michele Soyer
Good news!
Kim Avery
Today is a full day of R&R. I really overdid myself Wednesday and paid for it yesterday. I was lucky to be able to take my son to work & back with a quick trip to Wal-Mart for ginger ale.
Molli Taylor
OH my goodness! I was so sick for 3 days but I think Im doing better now!
Michele Soyer
While walking the pooch this morning I realized that weeding needed to be done in the flower beds – my outside chore for the day!
Shelly Peterson
I spent the day resting and trying to feel better
Tamra Phelps
Up early this morning (early for me…about 9). And still, at night I am wide awake. Always.
Sarah L
Good swim today with a friend. Missed the other friend who is not feeling well. Then stopped at the library and Smashburger.
gloria patterson
I live alone so it is easy to have a quiet peaceful day. Sleep in this morning till 7 and even had a hour nap. And the best thing of all is that it was 6:05 before it got dark. Extra hour of daylight
l p
the day is going well so far. it’s very icy underfoot so being cautious takes more time and it’s worth it. thanks
heather
My day is going super fast. I got a ton of stuff done today and am just sitting down to chill for a while. The weather is way too warm here for this time of year and it feels like spring but it shouldn’t be. I am praying for rain and soon all the local ponds are dry and that is not a good sign for this area.
Polly Hall
It’s a good day, tonight my husband and I are going to the comedy club.
Nancy
My day has gone fine so far. It is the start of the afternoon. I completed a chore that I had been putting off, so I feel glad about that.
Megan Allen
I need to get things done today but right now I’m snuggling my baby. Have a wonderful day!
Kate Sarsfield
My sister just rang from her specialist in Dublin. She has small kidney stones & the scan has revealed a cyst-type growth. It’s either on her appendix or in the bowel, they couldn’t tell, so I’m taking her back to Dublin in the morning for an emergency colonoscopy. If it’s in the bowel, they’ll take a sample for testing. I’m quite numb. It might be nothing but having gone through Mum’s bowel cancer …
Tamra Phelps
Hopefully, it’s on the appendix…Sending good vibes her way. And yours!
Michele Soyer
Hope all goes well..
Kate Sarsfield
Thank you ladies!
Michele Soyer
Pouring rain today so glad I am in and reading and relaxing and practicing my vocab…
Shelly Peterson
Today was a long day.
Karen R
My day was okay. I went to the doctor and I have an ear infection. I got medication for it and I should feel better, tomorrow.
Kim Avery
I had a super busy and tiring day! Took my mom to run errands then eye dr. Spent an hour and a half waiting for her to be done! Was supposed to run more errands but was getting closer to picking my son up from work so those are on hold until Friday. She bought us all subs and dessert so thankful for not having to cook!
Kal
It started to rain just as I got in the door. Whew!
Sarah L
A bit windy today with a high of 47 degrees. Tonight I go out to pick up groceries. Have never done it at night before but that was the only slot available.
gloria patterson
My day is going great just found out that I won some Natl Geo Books on sharks. They will make the perfect birthday gift for my 60++ yr old brother. He love this type of book
KaLei
My day is going well and will be topped off with a treat.
Tamra Phelps
It wasn’t as cold today, which I like. But of course, it was kind of gray and looking like snow…
l p
another beautiful day with lots to do – it’s going smoothly so far. thanks
Vivienne
My day is going pretty good, just relaxing and decompressing cause I went to concert last night that was a lot of fun 🙂
heather
My day is going pretty good today. I am just doing stuff around the house today and catching up on some paperwork. Hope you have a great one.
Polly Hall
Went to Meijer to do my weekly grocery shopping.
Ron Weinberg
Spring is always welcome! The time when nature starts to bloom.
Susan Climan
Things are ok today! Sun is shining and I good a great performance review from my boss yesterday!
Shelly Peterson
I wasn’t ready to get up. Still don’t feel back to my normal self yet.
Mark C
Really good today, the sun is out and I’ve saved some money today!
Nancy
My day is going fine so far. I have some errands to run today. It is 29 degrees now and expected to go up to 56 degrees today.
Diane
My day off from work, so need to get myself motivated to go do my errands. My biggest highlight of my day will be seeing my 10 month grandson later today.
Michele Soyer
Afternoon class today ( Art History) so I have the morning to bath the pooch and check the garden…
Kate Sarsfield
It’s lovely out there so I’m rushing through the chores and out I go. Think I’ll do a bit of weeding then tape some garden tools together to make them easier to pack.
Tamra Phelps
I’ve been reading ‘Tales of a Rock Star’s Daughter’ by Nettie Baker (Ginger Baker’s daughter.) Makes me glad I was not a Rock Star’s daughter, lol. It’s a pretty entertaining look back at the 70s/80s though.
tammy ta
My day went pretty well. Just another day of work.
Sarah L
Went to Ace hardware to pick up mouse traps. I do not like mice in my house. Sun is shining and 48 degrees.
l p
this day is going well. it’s beautiful temperature-wise but it’s also really icy outside so everyone is having to take extra caution walking. walk like a penguin…. thanks
Dawn Newberry
This is a great opportunity. Thank you for this.
Shelly Peterson
I still am not feeling good. So I just do nothing but rest.
heather
My day is going pretty good so far. I had a ton of running around to do and now I am home and resting my tired feet and legs. I so need to get a better pair of shoes for when I have a lot of walking to do. Today I wore my UGG boots and they are super warm and comfortable but there is no support in them for walking all over stores.
Sharon Rooney
Today is a nice day the sun is shining and it is a little bit warmer.
Kim Avery
Its been a slow day for me. Tomorrow is jam packed with running around and I need to rest up or expect a huge flare up!
gloria patterson
Having a good day, sun is shinning but on 28 right now. Did a little crafting today finishing up a gift for my great niece.
Kate Sarsfield
I bought a 20L dehumidifier unit & it arrived this morning. The houses I’ll be able to afford all look like they haven’t been lived in for a while so it’ll sort out the damp a lot cheaper and quicker than heating.
Michele Soyer
After class today making eggplant ( reaped a few yesterday) then i have to chlorine the walkways…
Kate Sarsfield
First impressions of the classes?
Michele Soyer
Wonderful.. I am very glad I decided to follow this dream – better late then never… Kate this is bringing me a new joy!
Kate Sarsfield
I’m delighted, you clever (and brave) thing!
Piroska
My day was weird today. I thought it was Tuesday.
Nancy
My day is going fine so far. Again, it is still the middle of the night. We had some ice yesterday but no snow.
Tamra Phelps
Well, not a bad day. I think I got the post office straightened out (they are supposed to bring my mail to the box installed just outside my door now instead of the apartment’s boxes that are in a spot I can’t get to in a wheelchair)–and found out I won a gift card. Of course I have to wait 8 to 10 weeks for it, lol, but still it’s nice.
Michele Soyer
Congrats on your gift card! We love wins….
Kate Sarsfield
Ooh, lovely, something to look forward to. Of course, if you’re like me you’ll have it spent before it arrives!
Kim Avery
My day was pretty good. Had sticker shock at the grocery store! I swear my total doubles for the exact things every month! Then later went shopping for my mother in law and was shocked the milk was wiped out! Like what the heck? In 5 hours no milk! Luckily I found a gallon left of the milk she wanted!
Tara Enright
My day (week) is going Ok I suppose it’s been a lot stressful and been in a funk lately. I try to stay positive and relax as much as I can.
Sarah L
Quiet day at home. Temp got up to 55 so lots of snow melting.
l p
it’s a bright day today – lots of sunshine and warmer temperatures to help make the day go well. lot sot do thanks
gloria patterson
Having a good day the weather is looking good this week some days are going to be in the 50th. Got a new book in today from one of my favorite authors. J.D. Robb so going to spend the evening reading. Hope you are having a great day. And I love the ideals you did with decorating out in the snow. Going to share with my niece so she can do with her daughter the next time it snows.
Connie Head Peanut
Oh my gosh JD Robb is my FAVORITE! Have you listened to the audio version? The reader truly brings Eve and Rourk(sp) to life.
heather
My kitten has kept me super busy today, she decided it would be fun to rip the curtains down in my bedroom rod and all.
Shelly Peterson
I just can’t get to feeling better. I was in bed last night by 9, which is early for me.
Kate Sarsfield
The buyers have paid the deposit in full! Another step closer to moving! Spent the day cleaning. Honestly, living alone in a 4-bedroomed house, you’d think there’d be less cleaning but this is the dustiest house I’ve ever lived in.
Molli Taylor
it’s monday but i am optimistic for a great week!
Michele Soyer
All set to start class – wait…where is my new uniform and shoes?? I put all my interests on hold for my busband’s dreams and wishes for over 50 years so here I am at 70 doing my own wishes and dreams – do I regret the path I took NO but this is now me time…
Nancy
My day is going fine so far. Actually it is still the middle of the night. It is supposed to snow today – actually it is snowing now.
Tamra Phelps
It’s been a pretty slow day. I cleaned a few things in the kitchen, tried to organize a few random things that have been just laying around gathering dust. Typical Sunday.
Sarah L
Good swim with my friend. Then I ate 5 of her french fries when she stopped at McDonalds.
gloria patterson
My great niece (5) spend saturday with me (72) and we had a lot of fun… But she worn me out after she left I had a 2 hr nap. Was asleep my 10 and wide awake at 5. Got up got dressed and looked at my recliner and decided I needed a nap 🙂 After I got up made a pot of chili, bagged most of it up and into the freezer. Love having chili in the freeezer for those days you don’t want to cook. a little reading and a little computer and I am going to watch a show on Prime.
It is heck getting old but naps recharge me:-)
Tamra Phelps
Having chili in the freezer is always good! I make chili even in the middle of July, lol!!
l p
the day is going very quickly. all of sudden it’s afternoon. thanks
heather
My day is going pretty good just got in the door from doing some major grocery shopping and now we are all stocked up for a while. I like to do my shopping during the week to avoid the crowds but we were out of almost everything so I hit the store early today.
Michele Soyer
Got all my ducks in a row on my to-do chore list because tomorrow I start classes – zoom orientation for both French and Art History – graduated uni in 1974 – my last chance to do all the courses I didn’t have the time to do….
Tamra Phelps
Go for it!! Have fun with it!
Kate Sarsfield
WOWZA!!!!! Enjoy your new chapter!
Kim Avery
Not too bad of a day. Cleaned out fridge & freezer then inventoried the pantry. Made shopping list for tomorrow. Just waiting until 5 when I have to go pick up my son.
Kate Sarsfield
Dear God, it’s cold today but I don’t want to spend on heating oil that I’ll have to leave behind. Hopefully this week will bring some good news on the house sale. Anyway, Ireland beat Wales while Scotland beat England. Italy play France today.
Tamra Phelps
I’m sitting here in a sweater because I refuse to turn the heat on more than I have to, lol!!
Kate Sarsfield
I went to bed in a hat & gloves!
Connie Head Peanut
We are the same way. I usually huddle under a heated throw on the couch.
My craftroom is the coldest room in the house I need to just go and buy a room heater.
Kath
The day is going well so far. I have some things I’d like to do so I hope I can get at least some done.
Molli Taylor
I am actually doing pretty ok today! productivity is good
Nancy
My day is going fine so far. It is laundry day here. It may snow tomorrow.
Piroska
It was a good day, today. It was milder, and we got a few inches of snow. And my grandson came over for a visit. Always fun.
tammy ta
Watched a really, really good movie at home with my husband and two boys today.
Tamra Phelps
I’m sitting here online and half watching true-crime shows on TV, lol. That pretty much describes my day. Outside is still freezing cold and icy with a topping of snow, so I’m not going out!!
Kim Avery
My day wasn’t too bad. Recovering from yesterday’s snow shoveling. Put some pain patches on and took a muscle relaxer around four then took a two hour nap!
KaLei
The day has been going well. Dinner’s almost ready – a little early. That’s OK.
Sharon Rooney
It’s been a good day, it’s Saturday! Got a lot of laundry and cleaning done today.
Sarah L
Quiet day at home listening to the wind. Got up to 46 degrees with sunshine (and wind!)
Nancy
My day has gone fine so far. I am baking chicken in the cover. It smells very good!
PS. Will you make snow ice cream with the girls?
heather
My day is going pretty good so far. I am staying home and catching up on a few things. I did a ton of running around yesterday and it really wore me out.
l p
it’s a lovely day today, despite the snow. there’s hardly any wind so the big snowflakes just dance and swirl around on their way to the ground. thanks
Molli Taylor
it’s gorgeous out right now! i am hoping to get some yardwork done!
Michele Soyer
Lawn man here since 6am almost done then raking begins! Really just want to sit and watch Silent Witness..lol
Kate Sarsfield
It’s very windy today so staying in. Time to go through Mum’s make-up bag. No point putting it off any longer.
Tamra Phelps
When Mom died, I basically shut her bedroom door for over 6 months. Then, one day, I said ‘might as well do it’ and went through everything. Some time has to pass…definitely. You’ll find things that’ll make you cry, but also things that make you smile, probably.
Kate Sarsfield
Oh Tammy, her various shades of coral lipstick! She wore that shade for decades.
Tamra Phelps
With my Mom it was a shade of stick foundation that they stopped making here decades ago–in fact, I had to order it for her on Amazon from Ireland! My Mom was very pale, lol. She used to joke that apparently only people in Ireland were as pale as her. Oh, and her Jontue perfume, I found bottles of it with a few drops in each. (When my Great-Grandpa died we found bottles of a different type for years…buried in Granny’s flowerbed when we went to transplant a few, in boxes in the garage when we cleaned it out over 20 years after he died!!! Here and there in boxes in the basement–you never knew where or when one would turn up.)
Shelly Peterson
I’m still not feeling back to normal. I’m glad its the weekend.
Sarah L
Good swim today with my friend. She called this morning to see if I was still planning to go and I said yes. At least the sun was shining and it got up to 33 degrees.
Sharon Rooney
It’s been a good day plus it’s Friday and I’m looking forward to the weekend.
Tamra Phelps
We had ice coming down steady all night, topped with a little snow this morning. So, it looks like a small snow, no big deal…then you step on it or drive on it and go sliding…
Kim Avery
I spent the day shoveling. Luckily I had no where to go so I was able to go slow and stop to rest a lot.
heather
I am spinning from the busy day I have had today. I did some serious birthday shopping today for a loved one’s birthday that is tomorrow. I think I remembered everything I sure hope so. I am now resting with an adult beverage and resting my poor tired feet.
Piroska
My day is going just okay. And I’m okay with that.
Monica Kirkham
It’s Friday and I’m sitting in front of a cozy heater while I work, so I can’t complain! My day is going pretty well. Hope yours is as well!
Kate Sarsfield
I’ve had one of those days when I’ve been busy but with not a lot to show for it!
Molli Taylor
It has been SUCH a rough week, thank god it’s friday!
Sandra Watts
So, it’s been awhile since my last comment and visit for that matter. I saw that snow picture on your FB page. That is crazy. We just got a snow and sleet storm last night. It is pretty but that is all I can say for it.
Shelly Peterson
I was up earlier than I wanted to be to watch my granddaughter. I’m heading to bed.
Tamra Phelps
Well, the ice storm has started here. Yuck. I’d rather have a foot of snow than an inch of ice.
tammy ta
My day was good. Pretty quiet, so ok.
Elicia P
Well with a dental implant done this morning. I have basically been doing nothing.
Karen R
The schools are closed. The streets are a sheet of ice. I am trying to stay warm. I am watching a movie on Prime.
Tamra Phelps
Same here (KY)–ice storm. I’d rather have snow any day…
Sarah L
The sun came out today. But it didn’t warm up after an overnight low of -11. I just stayed home and didn’t go swimming. Will go tomorrow.
klp
The day is going very well. Lots of positives. Thank you.
Sharon Rooney
It’s been a pretty nasty day here as far as weather. Cold with sleet and rain.
Otherwise the day was good.
Kim Avery
A day full of anxiety! Was all worried about the storm. Taking my son to & from work in it was causing major anxiety! Luckily it wasn’t bad this morning and was just getting bad when I picked him up. Made him & his girl a care package of food so they wouldn’t have to walk in this weather to the store & should last them through the weekend.
Lindsey
I’m organizing a conference and it’s a bit time consuming and stressful!
l p
lots of phone calls today – just what was needed to clear off the desk. yay. thanks
heather
My day was going pretty nice until I had to deal with a nasty person but I am not going to let them ruin my day. The sun is out and it is a nice day here hope you are having a great day.
Kate Sarsfield
The first of my daffodils opened today and the 6 Nations starts on Saturday. So many memories of Mum and Dad vying over who would win! The 6 Nations is a rugby Championship between Ireland, England, Wales, Scotland, France and Italy and with Mum being Welsh, Dad English and all of us living in Ireland for decades, things could get rather noisy!
Molli Taylor
my to do list seems endless… so stressed out today.
Michele Soyer
Making all my lists for tomorrows monthly shopping – arghhhh – used to love it now I just get it done…5 stops to make so want to start early and move!
Shelly Peterson
Today felt like a long day. I hope I sleep better tonight.
LP Ba
It has been a rather gray day here with lots of rain. Not my fave but it’s not snowing or freezing.
Karen R
My day has been fine. I am a little worried about the weather forecast.
Sarah L
We got about 8 inches of snow here in Lakewood. Currently 9 degrees with a wind chill of -5. I did not go out today. (surprise!)
Kai
It’s been a great day so far. Lots of work done and lots of laughs along the way.
Ken Ohl
Had a 11 hour work day today glad to finally be home
Kari
I finally had enough energy to water ‘the jungle’ in the living room. It usually takes most of the morning so the day is going somewhat slowly. That’s OK – the plants are worth it.
KaLei
My day is going very well. I’ve got the entire day’s tasks on the go and more or less on time. I’ll take it.
kkp
This day is going very well. I’m starting to get the papers for taxes organized.
Sharon Rooney
It’s been a pretty good day so far. Dropped my car off to get serviced and no major issues, so that is a good thing.

I tidied up the indoor plants today, taking out dead/ish leaves, stems etc. and measured their height & width. Then I worked out the best place to put them in the car to come with me when I move out. There won’t be much room left for 2 weeks of clothes, water & goodies but I’ll get there. Anyway, have to get the closing date, put the cat into a cattery and shift the furniture into storage before all that happens.

Well another plumbing break outside – only a tap – cheap fix!

My day started with ice and snow so no work for me today. I feel like cooking chili and treats!
Leela
I made some loaves of potato bread and a large sicilian pizza in a half sheet pan. I’m happy when I can bake 🙂

Wow, Alice is going from never seen snow to the Idaho version of being thrown into the deep end to learn to swim!! She’ll love it!

I got the main thing accomplished today: took the big trash can out to the curb. I usually do it Tuesday night but they were saying snow starting at 5pm. It started at 3pm instead. The trash can now has an inch of snow on it. Expecting 5-12 inches by Wed night. Slow moving storm. Big chill of -5 for Wed morning.
Connie, so glad you’re doing at least 3 months more.

Preparing for our first snow of the season (finally!) in Indianapolis. And it supposed to be a record breaker of 16-18”! ❄️

I love the glowing eyeball snow mounds!
Shelly Peterson
I’m feeling better today. I sure am ready for Spring.

It is the first day of a new month and so far good.

It’s the 1st day of Spring in Ireland (originates from the old Celtic Festival of Imbolc when the Fire Goddess starts to warm up the earth). Apparently it’s where the old Christian Candlemas comes from as well. Anyway, apart from that, the house sale contracts are now back with our solicitor so things are moving along at last.
Tamra Phelps
I’m rooting for the Fire Goddess!!!

So far so good since I just woke up. Lol
Drinking coffee and watching the news.
