Happy June!! $50 Your Way Giveaway!!
Hello my darling Peanuts!! I can’t seem to get motivated to write my Giveaway Whine Report for the month. Might be the weather, it’s cold and it rained all night. June 1st and it’s 46 degrees!??! Again, Sandpoint Idaho is way different than California.
I don’t have any before or after pictures because we STILL haven’t started any remodeling. Carpeting is still on hold. Stupid ugly bathroom is holding up the entire house! I did decide I don’t care if the Home Depot folks have to move furniture I am having my furniture delivered. That will happen tomorrow and you know I’ll share my pictures.
I drove to town and hit the post office and Walmart. AND did so without the use of my GPS. I’m so proud of myself.
Now I might just go back to bed just to get warm!! June and 46 degrees?! What the heck!?
I hope your day is full of sunshine!!
This Giveaway Is Closed. However, the newest $50 Your Way Giveaway is alive and well. Every. Single. Month. Check the sidebar. GOOD LUCK!!

Sarah L
Ended early??? How come? Will you be going back to the other form in July? Please????
Rosie
Heat wave going on, so getting things done that don’t require heat!! Going out for a bit later. Wow, June went so fast!
Tamra Phelps
Ah, I can’t believe June is nearly gone. This year has definitely not been what I expected. It’s been easily the worst year of my life. So, it can only get better…right??? Convince me I’m right, people, lol.
Kate Sarsfield
Of course you’re right – I wouldn’t dare argue with you 😉
Angela Saver
I am having a great relaxing Friday evening at home with my hubby, so my day is great!
Kate Sarsfield
It’s the early hours of Saturday & it’s too hot to sleep so I’m just messing about online till it gets a bit cooler. Hope everyone has a nice weekend 🙂
Sarah L
Good swim class. Glad that it’s only 97 degrees today instead of yesterday’s 106. (Bleh!)
Rosie
Day is going good. Big heat wave for a few days. So I have all the shades closed and trying to stay cool. Just getting a few things done and drinking lots of sugar-free drink to stay hydrated. Was supposed to go to town, but not going to walk that far in the heat and sun beating down.
shelly peterson
Just another day of dialysis. Heading to the movies later today.
CJ
Another blackout today…. Ugh. Third one this week… That’s summertime for ya! lol…..
Barbara Montag
Hard to say how the day will go today since it could be 105 degrees with the heat index!
Kate Sarsfield
How can we be in the second half of the year already? I finally finished clearing out the cattle grid. I do love really dirty, mucky jobs and it doesn’t come much dirtier & muckier than standing knee deep in decomposing leaf sludge! Any way, now comes the hard part, carting the 7 wheelbarrow loads around the garden & chucking the mulchy goo under the hedges. I’m going to cheat & let it dry out first though!
Michele Soyer
Another thunderstorm day predicted so out early to do some garden work then in for the duration..have to do some baking tomorrow so will prep this afternoon….
Sarah L
It hit 103 degrees here today (102 yesterday). I stayed home with the air conditioning on.
CJ
Thunderstorms today….. I spent the day working inside. It was a productive day. I’ve started watching the show Britannia. I like it so far. 🙂
shelly peterson
I am hoping to head to the park today if the weather holds out.
sam
My day? Pretty good. Its only 1 pm here so a lot can still happen. Thank you for letting us share our days. thank you.
Rosie
Day is going OK. Rain and thunderstorms, so not venturing out. Watching the buckets, as who know if the latest attempt at caulking worked, probably not.
Cathy French
Seems to be a list making day. Have all these ideas/chores that need done but no energy to do any of them.
Michele Soyer
Into the garden early to do some planting.. thunderstorms predicted for the afternoon have to hustle and get everything done….
Kate Sarsfield
Dad would have been 85 today and to celebrate, Mum’s baking a cake which she will then eat! I was voted onto the Committee of the musical society last night. L’il ol’ me is a committee member!
Michele Soyer
Congrats to you…. gotta love your mum.. a lady after my own heart…..
Barbara Montag
I am having a great day – got my computer back from the shop!
CJ
Spent my day working outside and doing some studies. I am tired but I am keeping active. 🙂
Zevs
My brother suggested I might like this blog. He was entirely right.
This post actually made my day. You cann’t imagine just how much time I had spent for this info!
Thanks!
shelly peterson
Enjoying a nice sunny day!
Rosie
Getting ready to walk to town for errands and then some chores at home.
Michele Soyer
Up and out.. feeling so energized today.. checking my pipe work first then heaven knows what but there is always work to do…. Prepped lunch already to time is not an issue .. when I get back up here is up to me…..
Kate Sarsfield
Another scorcher on top of a sleepless night make Kate a very tetchy person! Got things to do though: finish clearing out the cattle grid and then the AGM of the musical society tonight. I might get some shopping after that as well to save having to do it during the heat of the day.
CJ
Worked all day outside today. It was hot and I am beat. I will work less tomorrow….
Sarah L
Took Steve to the doctor and then to his club. Then errands and a nap.
Michele Soyer
Tackled the broken pipe line by the barn.. tomorrow I will put the water back on out there and check for leaks…Reading for the rest of the late afternoon….
Eric V.
So far, so good! Took a walk down to the public library today and ran a few extra errands too.. Since I’m downtown, think I’m going to go out to eat for lunch today!
shelly peterson
Having a relaxing day at home today.
Rosie
Having a good day. Looking through my cookbooks. Going to do some chores, too.
Kate Sarsfield
It’s official. Ireland has a heatwave! A few more days of this & we’ll have a drought, the farmers will be praying for rain and men will start wearing shorts – agh! The sight of hairy legs everywhere – ew! And men’s hairy toes in sandals – double ew!
CJ
Today was ok… Did my work in the morning and then enjoyed my afternoon.
Sarah L
Had a wonderful massage this morning, then a good swim class. The off to Costco for some things including a roast chicken.
CJ
We lost power today… it kind of messed up my Sunday morning. Once we got it back my day got better… lol. 😉
Kathleen Whitney
Bought two new Replacement chickens. They were younger then I wanted. I am hoping this won’t be a problem. Younger ones aren’t always tolerated by older ones. And they are more likely to get caught by chicken hawks. So we shall see!
Kate Sarsfield
It’s very early Monday morning and for once I managed to get to bed early. Then the youngsters from the house down the road got home from the pub & a flippin’ party has started up. Lots of boom boom music & shouting going on, as well as some very bad singing! I have given up trying to sleep so I’ve prepped the dinner & am now going to do some ironing 🙁 I feel old just typing this … ah, those were the days when we used to party as soon as the parents had gone on holiday!
Edye
Going ok! I went shopping for candles and had fun 🙂
Barbara Montag
I am having a quiet Sunday – so in need of the relaxation.
shelly peterson
It is going to be a hot day today. Heading to my daughters pool later.
Rosie
Day is going good, laying low, as I don’t feel too good, skipped church. Reading the news. Supposed to have more rain and thunderstorms.
Cathy French
Happy Sunday! Hope yours is fabulous.
Kate Sarsfield
It’s too darn hot, yes it’s too darn hot … well, for me anyway! I’ll wait till it cools down a bit before starting to clear out the cattle grid (leeches & all), till then I’m just pottering about & checking out eBay (bad Kate!).
CJ
Went to the dentist today… it went well. No cavities all healthy. I was so relieved… lol. 🙂
Tamra Phelps
Saturday in Henderson Nursing & Rehab is pretty slow. Trust me, no excitement here, lol.
Kate Sarsfield
It’s not excitement you need, it’s get up & go. Start with stubbornness, being bolshy and showing the world what you can do! C’mon Tamra, we all know you can do it xxx
Sarah L
Great concert at the Gardens last night with perfect weather. Today is a quiet day at home.
Michele Soyer
Shopping on a Saturday.. bleh.. now I remember why I don’t do it.. Went to the dentist so why not stop on the way home and pick up a few things to keep me out of trouble during the week.. tempers were high among the workers in one shoppe and it was good to get out of there.. Bought some gardening supplies and a few cans of paint for my newest project…. Happy Saturday all….
Kate Sarsfield
you too xxx
shelly peterson
Went to breakfast with my son and picked up movies to watch later.
Rosie
My day is going good. Caught up with a relative I haven’t talked with in ages and talked for an hour! Just got through making hummus from scratch. Looking around to see what else I can make ahead of time. Raining and supposed to have thunderstorms, so hope I don’t have to venture out.
Cathy French
I transferred my spare bedroom into a pantry and today a new shelf goes in so have to reorganize. Yikes this is gonna take a while.
Rosie
That sounds great! I have been using my extra room as a “junk room” – not junk but everything that doesn’t have some other place, it has grown and grown! Now I nee to organize and get rid of some things. I just saw The Container Store does custom pantries, I wish I could afford it. So nice.
Kate Sarsfield
Glorious weather so we’re washing curtains & blankets then I’ll pop out for the papers & visit Dad’s grave.
Kelly Kimmell
My Mom is coming to stay with us for several days, so it should be a wonderful day.
Sarah L
Good swim class with lots of people. Then Mary Chapin Carpenter in concert at the Denver Botanic Gardens. Beautiful music and beautiful weather.
CJ
Beautiful weather! Sun! Sun! Sun! Spent all day working outside and it was a good day… 🙂
Kathleen Whitney
Pulling hair out over wedding plans. Might as well have said they were having wedding in Hawaii. Not sure I will be able to help at all.
Kate Sarsfield
I’ve done nothing much today – was awake most of the night again with a bellyache. Hey ho!
shelly peterson
Good day so far. Glad it’s Friday.
Cathy French
TGIF! Hope you are having a great day!
Rosie
Day is going good. No rain, and I still have many errands to do on the far side of town, so will be out walking in a while. Glad summer is here!
Michele Soyer
Did well today.. my to-do list is done.. planted morning glory plants up the garden fence , the plant conservatory railings and the fence out to the land….discovered a broken pipe out there but have no fear tomorrow I will buy some pvc glue and fix the thing myself! inside now for lunch and the beginning of my weekend….
Rosie
wow you got all that done by lunch! good for you!!!

You mean like once we sing praise songs in Church??
Larry requested and daddy nodded. ?Well I can make up a worship song.?
So Larry jumped to his ft and started to make up a song to a very
bad tune. ?Jesus is so cool. Its fun being with God.
Hes the funnest God anybody may have.? Larry sang very badly so Lee had
put his fingers over his ears.
sam
today wasnt such a great one. I had to go to the dentist. But it gets better from here.
Sarah L
Took Steve to his club. Then came home and did almost nothing all day. It was very nice.
Kathleen Whitney
Multiple Store returns today. Then Shopping for tall flexible containers to put sheets in in the hall closet. As I am looking to use all the space in the top of the closet!
Eric V.
It’s been pretty nice. Hasn’t rained for a few days and today we’re in the 80’s outside! 🙂 Got some errands done this morning, and took a walk downtown to the library. It’s so nice to see a lot of people outside today! Finally feels like summer is “officially” here today!! 🙂
Tamra Phelps
Well, Insurance cut off my p.t. today, as expected. I’ve appealed, but no idea if it’ll work. For now, they’ve put me on ‘restorative therapy’ which basically is done by the aides here & keeps you from losing what you’ve gained. Darby, head of physical therapy, said she was telling them to bring me to the rehab rooms so I can practice pulling up at the bars. And hey, if I accidentally manage to get my butt off the chair, well, hey, who knew, right???
Rosie
Nice day out. Did some cooking this morning. Getting ready to go to the library pretty soon.
Michele Soyer
Chores done and really did not accomplish much with my to-do list….For some reason I got very dizzy and had to sit down… I NEVER get faint only when I was pregnant and that was 35 years ago… daughter brought me juice and said maybe its time to quit for the day….recovered quickly but took her advice and called it a morning….
Tamra Phelps
Hey, watch yourself!! Don’t want you to get heatstroke or something.
Michele Soyer
Don’t worry Tammy I am one strong lady!!! Minor blip on the screen….Praying for you every night…
Barbara Montag
Great day here – going to the city festival and seeing the belly dancers!
They are fantastic.
Kate Sarsfield
We’re at the start of some really hot weather (I mean hot for dear ol’ Ireland) and I’m suffering already. I was never much good in the heat as I burn easily even with factor 50 on so I’m twiddling thumbs & fingers wondering what to do for the next couple of days. Of course I could paint the hallway …
Kelly Kimmell
Day is starting out ok. It is raining, so it feels better outside.
shelly peterson
Another night of being up late. Hoping for good weather today to take my grandson to the park.

Heya i’m for the primary time here. I found this board and I find It really helpful & it
helped me out a lot. I am hoping to give one thing again and help others such
as you aided me.
CJ
Rained again all day so I decided to work inside the house…
Kathleen Whitney
More closets getting cleaned out. Downsizing is a liberating thing to do. Four bags to go to Salvation Army.
Sarah L
Good swim class then a trip to the grocery store and the library.
Michele Soyer
More rain but we worked thru it….transplanted flowers and a foliage plant….cleaned my planting shed and thats that….time to relax and have some lunch
Connie The Head Peanut
I got up at 7. Got the house opened up for the workers so they could work on the doors. Also had an 8am appointment for Viasat internet to come upgrade me so I can actually have internet that isn’t dial up!! (who KNEW that was still a thing right?!!)
Now it’s 4pm and I haven’t seen a soul.
Yes, I am in a WONDERFUL MOOD RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!! (@*#P**(@(#*(*#&(*) Just a wonderful mood.
Kate Sarsfield
Ah, the joys of living in the middle of nowhere! They’ll get there & get the work done; just at their own pace!
shelly peterson
Its a good day so far. Its nice and sunny. I’m heading to dialysis soon.
Rosie
Day is going good. Getting ready in a bit to go to town. Way far to walk for one place. But glad I can walk. Counting the days to Dial-a-Ride, July 1! Yea, I will be celebrating! Haven’t finished re-doing all my bed linens yet to display the new duvet cover. I need to rent a winch to move it to its new location!
Cheryl Chervitz
So far my day has been ok. Just doing the normal everyday things!
Cathy French
Just a bit manic today so getting a lot of things done. Yay!
Kate Sarsfield
Bit of a grey day today but still nice & warm. I’m planning on clearing out the dead leaves and such from the cattle grid later to make sure the outlets are free for when autumn & winter come around again.
Barbara Montag
I am having a good day.
Going to call bingo at our senior center.
Kelly Kimmell
Today is going better. My migraine is all gone & that’s a good start.
CJ
Rain.. rain… rain… I got some outside work done but eventually I had to run inside. 🙂
Tamra Phelps
I am not a good sick person, lol. I’m not one of those upbeat, inspiring people who just BELIEVES all will be right again. I wish I were…but nope.
Kate Sarsfield
Good, I’m glad you’re not a good patient, that means you’ve still got some fight left in you. Give me ‘doing’ over ‘believing’ any day 🙂
Connie The Head Peanut
I’m not a great patient either. But, truly everything you’ve been through I think you are doing fantastic!!! Just keep trying!! You’ll be dancing circles around us all soon!!
Rosie
Day is going good. Made some bars today with raisins and walnuts, not too sweet. I like to put a very light dusting of rice flour on them and it makes an interesting texture, but have to be careful it can burn easily, no recipe. I found a good bargain for some Irish linen, powder blue, want to make chair covers, but need to figure out how much I really need, not that easy without a pattern. Won’t get it if it ends up I need more than I can afford and it is too expensive. We’ll see.
Michele Soyer
Rain did me in today..baked instead.. ciabatta bread, cranberry bran muffins and a copycat recipe for Little Debbie oatmeal filled cookies….
kjasus
great! went for a quick bike ride in this gorgeous new england summer weather
Cathy French
Today is a beautiful day! Hope you are having a great day as well.
Sab Edwards
New girl is on her own now and is doing as expected…as long as she shows up for work, thats all that counts until we can get the students trained up for the summer month
shelly peterson
My day is just starting. It is going to be nice and sunny today. Will be heading to the park later
Kelly Kimmell
Not good this morning, another migraine & it’s pretty bad.
Kate Sarsfield
I think I’m going to have to switch to decaff. tea bags. Mum was still awake at 5 this morning so it was 7am before I got to bed. At 10 the phone rang – phone company technicians on their way to the house to check on a recurrent fault. I have a headache and, I have to admit, am feeling a wee bit grumpy today. I’m going to sort Mum out, get the chores done, grab some fresh air, prep & bung a dinner in the oven and hopefully (she says with fingers crossed) get a snooze later on.
Connie The Head Peanut
{{{{{{{{{kate}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} How’s Mum today? No more caffeine for Mum!!
Susan Smith
I had a good day. Spent time running errands and cleaning, then went swimming.
CJ
We had the first thunderstorm of the summer.,, not too dramatic, but I enjoyed sitting by my window and watching it safe inside my livingroom.
Eric V.
Whoops! I mean’t to say “my day” and not “my dad” in the last post. Haha! 🙂 I also wanted to say that this website is beautiful and the articles are very interesting and great! Lately I’ve been visiting the page daily! Thank you! 🙂
Connie The Head Peanut
Eric, you had me going back to see what was wrong with Dad! LOL! Glad your day is going good! Thank you for stopping by!
eric V.
My dad is going good! We had a lot of rain over the weekend, but today is nice and sunny! It’s about 75 degrees outside, so I figure I would take a walk down to the local library and enjoy the beautiful weather outside! 🙂
Cathy French
I feel back to normal today after being under the weather for a few days. My boyfriend was nice enough to clean the kitchen and do laundry so I have only a little to do. Don’t want to over do it anyways.
Michele Soyer
In between rain drops I started cleaning all the grass from the walkways out to the barn..Sorta pooped right now so time to sit back and relax for the rest of the day….
Rosie
Day is going good. Record breaking heat, and humid, too, so staying in, no hiking to town today. Have plenty to do. Hope to look for a lamp, I knocked mine over. I had made a silk shade for it, and I haven’t been able to find a plain, inexpensive base – surprised! So looks like I need to get a whole lamp.
Sab Edwards
Some of m yphysio stuff really hurts and I was in pain for most of the day yesterday but I actually had a solid sleep last night and woke up pain free..so maybe its a little bit of pain to gain some peace? I’ll be trying to do the stuff late at night before bed though as I work M-F and need to be pain free during my shifts
Connie The Head Peanut
Sab, did any of the new hires stick??
Kate Sarsfield
Ugh, still up at 6 this morning. Anywho, what can you do? Tired, headachey (is that a word?) but time to get this show on the road and hopefully manage a nap later when Mum nods off.
shelly peterson
Its a new day but I have not gone to bed yet. Lets hope for a good day today.
Kathleen Whitney
Just got back from going Camping. Really hot here in Texas. We were expecting rain. But only got small amounts. We were expecting a lot at home but didn’t get much. But there seem to be some moving in tonight!
Kelly Kimmell
My day is going pretty good, it’s Sunday.
shelly peterson
Having a nice relaxing day.
Sarah L
So much cooler today with thunder in the distance. We had 11 days of 90 or above.
Rosie
Day is going good, really hot, and tomorrow is supposed to be a scorcher. Going out in a little while. Missing my dad. I haven’t been able to get to my mom and dad’s grave in ages.
CJ
This is the first Father’s Day since my Dad passed. It’s been VERY hard. I’m a bit sad, it will get better though.
Rosie
Sorry for the loss of your dad.
Kate Sarsfield
It’s horrible, isn’t it. It really pains inside. It does get not better, but easier over the years.
Tamra Phelps
It hurts, I know. I still tear up any time I think about Mom. It can happen at any time, any place, but days dedicated to Mothers or birthdays are really hard.
Connie The Head Peanut
{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{CJ}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} Mother’s day was hard for me this year. I can’t imagine it will ever be easier.
Cathy French
Today will be a busy one since I felt so poorly all week. Amazing how a house gets so dirty.
Kate Sarsfield
We’re just back from the annual blessing of the graves and it’s Father’s Day as well so rather poignant. No other plans for the day, just keeping things quiet.
Michele Soyer
It’s Fathers Day and very hard in this house.. So finished chores very early and am listening to all the music we began with 48 years ago… starting with Brook Benton rainy Night in Georgia..it was our song.. then Bread Wanna Make it with you….our 2nd song.. then from there Howard Roberts Quartet.. Wes Montgomery and all that jazz…..
Kate Sarsfield
Great choices – the pair of you had excellent taste. Can’t believe it’s that long ago though… “Late at night when it’s hard to rest
I hold your picture to my chest, And I’m all right”.
Tamra Phelps
Love those songs. Music soothes the soul.
Sarah L
Quiet day house sitting. Picked some roses from thier garden.
Kathleen Whitney
Spent time driving around a retirement town today. And talking to a Realtor. Not ready yet to retire but its coming up fast!
Sab Edwards
Its saturday so I’m outside reading in the sun and coming in a few times to water myself lol
CJ
Have been suffering with sinus headaches the past two days…. I hope I feel better soon. 🙂
Cathy French
Today I had planned to do quite a bit but this terrible headache is saying reschedule for tomorrow.
Michele Soyer
Was going to take the whole day off but I got some ideas for the garage so I did some re-arranging and this and that now it suits me better….Not even noon as yet and I am in for the rest of the day..
Rosie
Day is going good. Getting really hot summer weather! Returning some leggings that are small enough for an 8-yr old – the bane of online ordering!
Edye
Going well. I am headed to work soon for a little bit then home to cook 🙂
Kate Sarsfield
All I’ve got on for today is to nip into town to get some flowers for Dad’s grave. It’s the annual blessing of the graves tomorrow – hopefully it won’t rain!
shelly peterson
The day is still early. I do have 2 graduation parties today. I hope the weather holds out.
Angela Saver
It’s Friday so I’m having a great day! Looking forward to the weekend!
Kathleen Whitney
We are camping today. Been a while since I have seen a sun shower. Can’t wait for the chicken to get done.
shelly peterson
Its a nice sunny day out. I am getting ready to head to dialysis.
Michele Soyer
All chores done… started finally going thru all my husbands old tools. some to get rid of and a lot to keep for practical and sentimental reasons….I still have many of my fathers…..did a bit more flower starting and now I am in and happy to start my weekend….
Rosie
Making pizza today, getting it ready for later, making the dough, and peppers and mushrooms, and cheese and sauce of course. Dough is rising. Found a good site for fabric remnants, my favorite store for good home dec remnants closed down a while ago.
Kate Sarsfield
I didn’t get much sleep last night between one thing & another and I’m tired and have that ‘heavy’ kind of headache. I’m popping up to visit Dad later and tidy his grave before it rains again. Other than that … nada!
Sab Edwards
PIZZA day at work today so its going to be nice
CJ
Today was a sunny and beautiful day but I stayed in and researched online classes. I am thinking of furthering my education and skills,,, it does get a bit overwhelming for me at times though…
Kate Sarsfield
I loved it! I did a 4-year Hons. degree course (actually went into 5 years because I dislocated my knee in the final year & had to postpone a couple of assignments) and I worked full-time for most of it too. I just didn’t do any housework 🙂 I found the teaching style really suited me.
Tamra Phelps
Another day in paradise. Yeah, right, lol. I’ve always said I never got a tattoo because there was nothing I felt strongly enough about to have it commemorated on my body forever, lol. Well, if I ever walk out of physical therapy and go home…that date will be tattooed on my butt or somewhere, lol.
Connie The Head Peanut
I think that’s a great idea!!!
Michele Soyer
Great planting day.. Put in a few citrus trees and a papaya….re-potted some flowers that were way too big for the pots they were in.. started some apple seeds and cherry seeds.. will see if any of them sprout for me.. not planting the apples for fruit just for a decorative tree in the driveway….the cherry seeds are acerola cherry aka Barbados cherry so they will grow….ready for a restful late afternoon…
Kate Sarsfield
Tee hee! I read that as the cherries are areolas! WTF? She’s got nipple trees!
Connie The Head Peanut
Kate you do make me laugh!
Barbara Montag
I am having a good day.
Getting a haircut – slight change in style.
shelly peterson
Pretty good day so far. Its my son last day of school. Its a half day so I am taking him to lunch.
Cathy French
I’ve had such a stressful time of it lately I went to take a nap yesterday afternoon and didn’t get up until this morning. Wish I could say I slept the whole time but at least no one bothered me for 15 hours.
Sab Edwards
so far so good!!! THis is the first thur in a very long time I did not have to work at 10am and do 2 hrs OT. I am actually well rested today because I was able to sleep and not be worrying about work. The new lady is still there although she is on her own today as they took her trainer away from her (I had offered to come in at 10am but my boss said no, apparently she only needs 3 days of training lol)..she got to learn the potatoe machine yesterday which takes 5 hrs to clean with a power washer. If she survived that, she’ll be ok. Most people quit even before we can even start training them on that. We currently have 7 people cleaning , they rotate on the certain days as three of them are students and can’t work every day
Rosie
Sounds more involved than I realized – what kind of potatoes?
Rosie
Nice day today! Going to get out and get some fresh air later this afternoon, so going like a tornado to get chores done.
Kate Sarsfield
Storm Hector came & went leaving trees down, roads blocked and about 40,000 homes without power in the west of the country. Doesn’t sound too bad but when you consider the size of the total population is under 4 million … We got off very lightly and of course the farmers were delighted with the rain. There’s another downpour due tomorrow so I’m washing every bit of clothing that’s lying around.
Rosie
That does sound awful. I keep at least a dozen containers of water always concerned about losing power in bad storms.
Kate Sarsfield
We do too especially as we need the electricity for getting water from the well! Sometimes it’s a toss up between drinking the water, washing in it or using it to flush the loo!
Tamra Phelps
Stormed here the other night. My bed is one of those inflated, constantly shifting contraptions to prevent bed sores…so I worry the power will go out and the bed will deflate, lol. It’s happened twice and it leaves me laying on metal slats.
Kate Sarsfield
Ouch! Mind you my back would love that 🙂 What did Rob do for his birthday?
Rosie
I never heard of a bed like that. Yikes!
Linda
The day was rainy and cool so the kids and I stayed at home to play.
CJ
Rained all day today…. stayed inside and worked on stuff in the house. It was a good day. 🙂
Kathleen Whitney
I had to chase my chicken all over the yard to give her her meds. This would have not happened if she stayed still while my hubby had her in his arms!
Kate Sarsfield
Would have loved to have seen that!
Rosie
I’ve had a couple of chickens, but didn’t have to give them meds. I can imagine them giving you a hard time!!! I don’t know if you could hide it in anything, mine loved grapes. My rooster would rush to grab a grape I’d put down, and then the hen would chase him around and around for that grape. When she’d finally give up chasing him, he’d gallantly go over to her and plop down the prized grape at her feet for her to have, like a real gentleman.
Sarah L
Good swim class. Then to the library to get some new books.
Connie, I really miss the old form and even if you keep this one please add a link so we comment on your FB page.
Kate Sarsfield
and so say all of us 🙁

Day is going good. Rainy, so doing inside chores. Made scones with almond flour, wow, they are so good, no recipe, just some of this and that. Waiting for Target delivery, they must be losing money big time on home delivery – one order with about 7 items comes in pieces on multiple days. Yesterday AA batteries came, just one little 4-pack – today 2 small packets of sugar-free drink mix is coming, and tomorrow a few more small items. I have to keep watching for UPS b/c everything gets stolen.

The Irish summer looks like it’a drawing to a close 🙁 Storm Hector is heading in from the Atlantic & is due to hit the west coast today. It probably won’t affect us here on the east but looking outside it looks like November (apart from the green leaves). The only thing I’ve done today is to go into town to get surgical gloves & brought Mum as well for a jaunt!
shelly peterson
Got up and had a good cup of coffee and getting ready to head to dialysis soon.
Michele Soyer
Rainy day….gave me the chance to leave the garden and press and put up new kitchen curtains and change the canisters etc a sunflower look that I try to put up every June July….made some Indian Saheina for lunch and cleaned my bedroom from stem to stern.. saw a few discolorations on my bedroom furniture…got the scratch varnish and did a job on the nightstand.. that furniture is 48 years old…the very first bedroom suite we bought after we got married….they sure don’t make furniture like that anymore…..
Rosie
You sure got lot done! I’m wondering what is Indian Saheina, sounds interesting.
Michele Soyer
There are many different ways to make it but the gist of it is a filling of yellow split peas (dhal) cooked with onions and garlic ..I then whirl them in the food processor to make a smooth paste…steam some dasheen leaves … fill the leaves and roll up neatly….dust them with some split peas powder and fry…..my sister-in-law was kind enough to give me this her recipe…..oh and you have to eat them with some serious pepper sauce!! I use scotch bonnet peppers.. not for the faint hearted!!
Rosie
That sounds good! I never heard of dasheen leaves before, though. I’d probably try a pepper sauce with peppers not quite so scorching!
Sab Edwards
doc apt on monday left me breaking my coffee cup, today was physio, so I have use of my hand once again..new girl lasted two days so far..here’s hoping she needs to work for a living as the last three people all quit before the third day of work..honestly, I don’t think cleaning is that hard if you are careful with the lifting stuff (which I now am) ..she’s actually not done any of the hard stuff yet, that happens on Wednesdays so we are all rather somewhat confused when people quit after the first or second day, because they actually have not done anything “hard” or heavy, yet.

What’s up, for all time i used to check blog posts here early in the dawn, because i enjoy to find out more and more.
Kristen
I’ve had a busy and productive day.
Sarah L
Had my annual physical. Then the vampires took 5 bottles of blood. Next up: colonoscopy, (bleh).
Cathy French
Disastrous day. Totally sucked! Went to go to the grocery store and pick up some prescriptions , which I was out of (totally different disastrous story) and my car wouldn’t start. So called the boyfriend to get me to pick up the prescriptions to find out one wasn’t even called in by my doctor. Dr ofc says they did, phy says no so long long wait, boyfriend upset because he just got off very long day of manual labor. Between my nerves already strained he was driving like a maniac. OK vented enough even there is so much more to this terrible day. Tomrrow have to deal with AAA and mechanic. Fun huh.
CJ
And DSL is back! The problem was the modem… almost ten years old and it finally died. Got a new one and now everything is working very well… 🙂
Kate Sarsfield
I was going to do so much today but somehow not a lot actually got done. Ah well, there’s always tomorrow, I suppose.
Tamra Phelps
There are just days that you have trouble holding on to hope. I’m really trying to hold onto hope that things will go OK, I will find a way to continue physical therapy and get home soon.
Kate Sarsfield
Hang on in there, Tammie & don’t give in now or I shall be forced to take action (???, no I don’t know either!).
Megan Cromes
my day has been ok ty how bout yours ?
shelly peterson
It’s a good day. Just relaxing.
Rosie
Day is going good. Nice weather today, getting some chores done inside. Hope to go for a nice walk later in the afternoon.
NIcole Bowers
I am BLESSED to be alive and my family is well, happy, and healthy!
Cheryl Chervitz
Other than the heat today, it was a good day.
Kathleen Whitney
Went to the Doctors’s today. Didn’t get much out of the that visit. Not sure what I will be doing going forward.
Sarah L
Good swim class (but small). Weather is much nicer than the 97 degrees we had yesterday: 83.
shelly peterson
Just another day of dialysis.
CJ
ADSL is down…. so I have to use my cellphone’s dataplan. I am hoping it will get fixed soon. 🙂
Michele Soyer
It has been over 9 months since my husband has been gone and I finally took out all the hydroponic reagents, buckets and doodads and set up what would have been his system….Had all the seedlings ready and lets see how well they grow.. did spinach, arugala, broc rabe, tomatoes and eggplant….also set up another plant station with planks of wood held up with concrete bricks….there I transplanted the same veggies in a dirt system in containers….still energized transplanted in LARGE containers watermelon, melons, zucchini more eggplant and some corn….His aquaponic system is next but I am a wee bit tired……
Rosie
My condolences on the loss of your husband. The garden sounds great!!
Michele Soyer
Thank you Rosie I keep on trying…..I am a city girl that turned out to be a country girl so I have to keep on learning and praying.. LOL
Kate Sarsfield
I had a really bad night. Every time I got to sleep something woke me and have hardly managed to do anything today – really tired 🙁
Michele Soyer
Rest and recharge… you are always busy..
Sab Edwards
was just at the doc and he wanted to know if I had reduced work because of my work injury…nope, I have to work longer hours now, thanks
Joana Bento
My day is going well , thank you!
Rosie
My day is going ok. Went to an open house at my complex yesterday, it was amazing their remodel, even changing walls. I thought I had been doing pretty good with spritzing up my place without spending much, but boy oh boy, it was quite an eye-opening experience. I’m just going to keep chipping away with what I can do. I was impressed the agent said that professional photos and staging was included in the listing price.
shelly peterson
Today was a good day. I did some shopping and went to dinner
Sarah L
Too darn hot. This is the 11th day above 90 degrees and 96 today.
Barbara Montag
I am having a pretty good day.
Quiet so I am getting a lot done.
CJ
I am a bit tired today… so I have been pretty low key and quiet. Enjoying my Sunday… reading my book and drinking coffee! 🙂
Cathy French
Woke up feeling a bit melancholy today so I decided to crank up some tunes and am listening to all my favorite rock songs while I get stuff done.
Michele Soyer
A glorious Sunday.. cooking, music, reading soon and that great gin and tonic….
Kate Sarsfield
Another bad night, but hey, it’s not like we have to get up early or anything! It’s another lovely day here (it hasn’t rained for over a week!) but that means a couple of hours watering the pots and beds this evening when it’s cooler.
Rosie
Day is going good, there is a town celebration today, we’ll be going to for a little while. Just had morning coffee, but want to make another pot, need some extra lead in the tank!
Angela Saver
I’ve had a great day with my husband today, just relaxing and hanging out together!
Kathleen Whitney
I learned that if you plant corn with squirrels around. You need to have your netting ready before you plant. Otherwise you have to work around the plants after they are grown. A couple of years back we were about a week from harvesting. and had squirrels come in and eat everyone of the ears. Never again!!
Sarah L
Attended a great concert this afternoon. But too hot outside: this is the 10th day over 90 degrees.
Rosie
My day is going good. Did some baking early on, and now doing some organizing and laundry. Saturday stuff!
CJ
Did all my outside chores, and when I am finally ready to relax there is a power outage. So I am surfing the net on battery until it comes back…
shelly peterson
Not much going on today. Its a rainy day outside today.
Michele Soyer
Doing nothing at all….enjoying the down time this Saturday….hope everyone here enjoys their day also…..
Cathy French
Today I’m thinking a lot about the late Anthony Bourdain. Seems he had such a dream job and was so successful that some don’t understand why he would choose to commit suicide. I have personally been affected bysuicide and people who are quite unfamiliar with the feelings that go along with this until they have also been affected. RIP Anthony Bourdain.
Kate Sarsfield
We had a bit of a bad night so our day’s only beginning (at lunchtime) and it’s already too hot to go out. Even the cat is staying inside. Never mind, we’ll get outside later and potter again.
Barbara Montag
I have had the most fantastic day today – felt great and lots of energy.
thank you
Kathleen Whitney
I found out my chicken has the flu. Just standard flu. We thought we would see if she will make it with Medicine. Crossing my fingers.
Sarah L
Good Sensory Garden tour this morning. Then a fun swim class. (too darn hot: 95 degrees)
shelly peterson
I had a busy day with dr, appointments and dialysis.
Tamra Phelps
Today, I got my butt completely off the chair again, lol, and a little higher. My arms are killing me right now (I pull up on a bar in front of me.) Well, I have to try and do all I can before insurance cuts physical therapy off,sigh.
Kate Sarsfield
Keep at it; just think how happy your butt is 😉
Kim Pincombe-Cole
I had kidney surgery earlier this week – so it hasn’t been the best start to summer!
Tamra Phelps
I hope all goes well for you. I went through kidney failure back in February, but they seem to be doing okay now (fingers crossed. It was due to UTI/SEPSIS thing.)
CJ
Today was a good day… I finished the downstairs cleanup and now i am taking the rest of the weekend off. 🙂
Nancy
Things are going fine so far. It has been a very busy day.
Dana Rodriguez
Just doing all my chores so I can hopefully relax the next two days. I hope you have a nice weekend!
Connie Gruning
I am debating……. laundry or go see the new Oceans 8…….. debate…. debate…..
Michele Soyer
Go see Oceans 8…
Laundry will be there tomorrow believe me…..
Michele Soyer
O K I am done for the weekend.. did some more outside painting and chores….it has been a good work week and time now to relax…. have all my wedding cake recipes out maybe I will get an order……if not thats fine too .. lunch , a movie then reading until this evening……
Cathy French
Today I am trying to get as much done as I can before my late afternoon dr’s appointment. Still beautiful weather.
Sab Edwards
Yesterday was only 2 hrs OT, today I said I would only stay for one hr. because there is only myself and then a student in at 3:30pm and there is literally 26hrs of cleaning to do. We’ll have to leave quite a bit of it for Monday morning. Although front office might expect the student to work until 3am, but I certainly do not lOL
Connie Gruning
Yikes!! That is so much work!!
Kate Sarsfield
Just another day pottering in the garden and watching the French Open tennis on telly.
Kathleen Whitney
More closets being emptied out. You know I really feel good about most of the stuff going. And looking forward to cleaning up my space.
Janice Cooper
My day was okay. Had to go to work, but the weather was beautiful! Sunny and 80 degrees .
Cheryl B
I took a tumble, and wow I am feeling it.
Connie Gruning
OUCH!! You didn’t break anything I hope!! I fell the other day and DANG it that hurts when you’re of a ‘certain’ age! LOL!
Sarah L
Big news of the day (not). Got a haircut. Needed it.
Connie Gruning
I took scissors to my own hair…….. shhhhh don’t tell my best gal pal and hairdresser in California. I will just tell her we had wine when she trimmed me last time……….. she will never know…… (I AM SO FUNNY I make myself laugh!)
Michele Soyer
Very productive day.. did some painting ( second coat on the cistern) and seed starting ……even sold some coconuts….enough to get the 100 pound gas on Sunday.. life is truly good…..
Connie Gruning
That’s AWESOME!!! Very productive day. I ummmmmm I had coffee and checked emails. Yup, that’s the extent of my productive day. May drive down to the mailbox. We’ll see.
Janice Dean
My day is going great, thanks! Good luck!!
Kate Sarsfield
I was awake all night with a bellyache – I won’t go into the yucky details but it involves my bowels and non-functioning valves! I’m off to see the consultant again in July. Hopefully there’s some procedure that can rectify them. ‘course I could always get a plumber in!
Connie Gruning
Ahhh Kate, I’m sorry. Feel better. Can you get into see the consultant before July?
Tamra Phelps
I identify. Since my body went nuts on me, I have colon issues. I hate it. Feel better soon!
CJ
Today was ok… Sold some produce and started work on the downstairs bedroom. All in all it was a good day….. 🙂
Dana Rodriguez
My day has been great except for my kitten getting in to a lot of mischief. I hope you can get your new home fixed up the way you want soon!
Connie Gruning
I’m so excited. The windows arrived at Home Depot. We are scheduled for install on Tuesday!! Stuff is finally starting!! WOOO HOOOO!!!
Rosie
New windows can really transform how a place looks, and you’ll save a lot of money for being energy efficient. We had very expensive and pretty casement windows put in, and it was amazing how much cooler it stays in summer and warmer in the winter, saving quite a bit.
shelly peterson
Just another regular day.
Cathy French
Today is so beautiful here in central Ohio. It had been pretty warm of late and today we are still only in the 60’s. Glad to be able to open windows again.
Sab Edwards
Well I guess its easier to find someone to work a production shift then to work cleaning. We have hired 5 cleaners now in the last year. The one lady lasted a day (She said she was only working because she was bored and actually didnt need the money) The next two were hired at the same time and lasted two days . One lady has been hired to work M T W TH, from 4pm-8pm…she NEVER shows up the first day of the week (if mondays a stat she takes the tue off lol) She has yet to show up this week…. The last lady has worked for us before and only needs to make some extra money for her daughters wedding. She gets paid the min call out (3hrs) to do the 2 hrs worth of work. We’ve hired a new lady for full time and she starts monday. My reg cleaner will train her for a week then she is off onto the production day shift…. Today she is on production because they are short staffed (we only have two busy months btw)So today, I am short staffed for cleaning, There is basically 19hrs of cleaning to do and there wll be myself and I’ll start 2hrs early, and two students who will come in for 5hrs each as well . Tomorrow is worse lol
Connie The Head Peanut
HOLY MOLY!! That’s insane that people just don’t show up. Hopefully the new hire will be a fabulous hard working person!! Fingers crossed.
CJ
Today was pretty much the same as yesterday. OK day… no complaints…
Connie The Head Peanut
I’m having the same……. just OK. I hate having the BLAH’s.
Sarah L
Good swim class. Have new neighbors with a dog.
Connie The Head Peanut
Hopefully a calm dog?? Not one that yaps all night?
Our neighbors about a mile from the house have a dog. It’s our early warning alarm. He only barks if there is someone coming up the road. That’s a GOOD dog!!
Kate Sarsfield
We’re surrounded by farm dogs & they bark at ANYTHING! I suspect it’s just a way of keeping contact over long distances, like yodelling!
Michele Soyer
Spent the morning and early afternoon reaping the last of the tomatoes, eggplant and sweet potatoes… got ready for the new plants to go in tomorrow…re-potted some small flowering trees and by then it was after 1pm…well i got up late at 6:30 this morning.. should I say good afternoon!!!
Kate Sarsfield
The big State exams start today for school goers in the junior & senior cycle so of course the sun shone. Poor things, still it’ll all be over in 2 weeks and they’ll have the whole of the summer to chill. I’ve just spent the day pottering in the garden.
Cathy French
Today is going just fine for a change. Still need to catch up on some chores but nothing pressing. Nice and unstressful day…so far.
shelly peterson
My day is just beginning. Its a nice sunny day out though.
Sab Edwards
Wed is physio day for me… hurt myself at work back in Jan and I am on physio until I have full use of the arm again. Tons of OT again so far this week, Friday will be the worse because I suspect it will be 3 hurs OT again
Connie The Head Peanut
3 hours!! You’ll need a good long soak after that.
CJ
I cleaned today and sorted through boxes and made some decisions on what to keep and throw away. Trying to get rid of the clutter…
Kathleen Whitney
Spent time cleaning closets today. Always feels so good to de-clutter and get rid of stuff you are not using any more!
Sarah L
Had the SPARK group at Chatfield this morning. We got to see the Butterfly house. 92 degrees and TOO DARN HOT.
Tamra Phelps
A little under the weather today. Bad stomach. Yesterday, I made my first serious effort to ‘stand’…which means getting my butt off the wheelchair while still leaning forward and grasping a bar. Hey, it’s progress, lol.
Connie The Head Peanut
Tamra, that’s GREAT progress!!! Slow and stead wins the race!!
Kate Sarsfield
Well done; phew, I bet you’re knackered after it though!
Cheryl B
Summer break began today!
shelly peterson
Spent time with my sister ad went to lunch.
Michele Soyer
Spent the morning outside designing a plant stand for all the delicate flowers I have grown from seed…The rains have started and they are not the hardiest so I took some planks and the sawhorse and some paint and now the safest weather free section of the garage/patio area have a plant stand….transplanted some large tropical foliage into new terra cotta pots and started placing them down the driveway….I have some plans for tomorrow too….
Cathy French
Had a bit of a rough start to the day today but things seem to be getting better. Hoping the rest of the day is incident free.
Kate Sarsfield
I went internet-free for a couple of days and the first email I opened was from Connie, announcing that I’d won the contest for May! PayPal here I come!
Michele Soyer
Congrats!!!!!!
Jason Day
I have bookmarked your website because i have collected celebration tine date news from this site and for me the contains have valuable information in it. I am really happy with articles quality and presentation. Thanks a lot for keeping great stuff. I am very much thankful for this site.
Kathleen Whitney
Went out to dinner and met my son’s new girl friend. So far I think she is a really nice girl!
BIRDIE SKOLFIELD
My day has been spectacular………. love and light to you !!!!
Connie The Head Peanut
Oh Birdie, what a great message!! Thank you!
CJ
Went to the bank and went shopping today with my mom… Great sales and beautiful sunny sky…. I have no complaints. It was a good day…
Daniel M
pretty bad and the worst is yet to come
Connie Gruning
Oh Daniel, I hope things are looking up for you today. Sending good thoughts your way.
Sarah L
Good swim class. Treated myself to a Frosty at Wendy’s.
I am a creature of habit. I come here, tweet, comment and then read your FB and comment there.
In your new form you have the FB entry to only one time instead of daily. How can I keep up with the funnies??
Michele Soyer
Spent 2 hours in the bank just to close an account…by the time we did all the other errands it was 2pm….tomorrow is another day…..
bill norris
its my friday, so, so far so good
Cathy French
Today is so far so good. I’m finally over the terrible migraine I had over the weedend.
Sab Edwards
So far so good. My baby sis had to move so we did that for two days. She was not able to take her ferret but we might have found someone who will buy it….otherwise I have someone lined up who can baby sit it. Its rainy here and I haven’t put my new plants in the ground due to the move so maybe tomorrow the clematis will be put into its new home. I think today I am more thankful for what I have then on Friday….although both my son and husband are unemployed, we have each other.
shelly peterson
My day is wonderful so far.
Sarah L
Saw Cirque du Soleil Corteo and enjoyed it very much. My usual birthday present from my best friend.
Kathleen Whitney
Cleaned the Garage out today. Boy its hard when all the hubby wants to do is throw everything away!
Kate Sarsfield
I just popped down to the village to get Mum a bottle of S. Blanc and couldn’t get parking. I thought it must be the drinkers from a huge funeral or similar but no! The local women ran a half marathon this afternoon to raise funds for a defibrillator and to help the family of little Ollie, a 2-year old child who died at the beginning of the year from heart failure during the flu season. His grave is next to Dad’s so I visit it regularly. So sad; balloons, fairy lights and toys for a little boy lost. However, on a brighter note, the women raised enough to get that defib and to put something towards a headstone for Ollie.
Connie Gruning
Death is never easy, but a child has to be the worst!! You’re not supposed to outlive your child.
Hope Mitchner
Beutiful day here in KY. Working in the garden early, worked on a qullt block and read awhile. Lovely.
bill norris
my day is alright
shelly peterson
My day has just started. Enjoying coffee so it’s going good so far.
Michele Soyer
Woke up to rain this morning but the day has cleared…Getting my lists together for a shopping day tomorrow….plenty of local shoppes and the bank.. bleh… wish everything could be done without walking thru those doors….
Maureen
Since it is early–it is OK.
Hope yours is good.
CJ
It is a rainy sunday morning…. I am sitting drinking my coffee, listening to music, and surfing the net. A great beginning to a relaxing day… 🙂
Kathleen Whitney
Went out to hit some Yard Sales. Didn’t find to much. And here in Texas the heat started coming in!
Connie Gruning
Kathleen, that’s what I need to do. Hit some yard sales! That will either help me find my way around the new town OR I’ll get so lost I’ll have to find a hotel room for the night. LOL!
Sarah L
Spent several hours volunteering at the local library system’s big book sale. As a volunteer I got 2 free books. Only came home with one.
Kristen
We’ve had a very nice day today.
Molli Taylor
my day is a little weak, im sick after hosting my daughter’s 9th birthday sleepover, but it was worth it!
Tina Demarco
very exhausting im so tired!
Natalie
I am having a great Saturday! I painted by dresser and nightstand white.
heather
I am trying to have a good day even though others tried to make it a bad one.
Tamra Phelps
Might get to see one of my nephews today. He has a baseball tournament just 30 minutes from here, so if it doesn’t go too late, they’ll come by here.
Kate Sarsfield
Oh, I do hope so! It would help to break up the boredom that you’re obviously succumbing to. How and ever, you are, as far as I’m concerned., doing rather well! Compare yourself now to how you were all those weeks ago; HELLO? You are doing just fine! It’s gone 6am & I’ve finally got Mum & the cat to bed, everything is switched off; the blackbirds, swallows and my 2 robins are beginning to warble so time for me to hit the hay. G’night xxx
Tamra Phelps
Got to see him, his brother, his sister and their parents, lol. And his team won the tournament. I told him it was obviously good luck to visit me first, lol.
Kate Sarsfield
I saw the pic on FB! What a lovely surprise for you & I bet it made a change for you!
Connie Gruning
That’s great news all the way around!!
Michele Soyer
Connie temps like that would undo me….Coming from So Cal I give you a great deal of credit…the view and the space is worth it though I bet.. Me if it goes below 85 ° I grab a sweater!! I cannot believe that I used to brave New York winters…
Kate Sarsfield
What are your temps measured in? For instance, today in Ireland it was an average of 17 degrees Celsius (about 62.5 Fahrenheit). So your 85 would be about 29 over here & that just hardly ever happens. You have sea breezes though, as do we here, and late evening mists as well that make it a wee bit cooler at night. Back in the late ’80s, when I was working in London it hit 35 degrees, which is about 95 Fahrenheit. Horribly humid as well but I had just been to Menorca & bought a load of silk shirts/dresses so managed, although the Tube was hellish .
Michele Soyer
Even though temp here is measured in celsius I always convert can’t help it….During dry season we run about 35°C with dry Sahara winds.. now in rainy season we go between 26-27°C at night and the same 35° or higher during the day…..but there are days now that are not too humid but when they are wow the barometer can go as high as 82% humidity….
Connie Gruning
Our temps are in degrees. It’s weird here on THE mountain. When that wind picks up it’s down right chilly. EXCEPT the master bedroom which is pretty much all windows so……. it’s hot upstairs. In the winter I do believe that will be my favorite room ever!
connie danielson
TODAY i WOKE UP NOT FEELING GOOD AND i AM TRYING TO DO TOO MUCH! i NEED TO DO MY LAUNDRY!
Cathy French
Today I’m nursing a pretty bad headache but trying to muddle through because I have a large grocery trip planned for this afternoon.
James Robert
Thanks for the opportunity to win this great giveaway. Having 5 kids, there is always someone in need of something.
Kate Sarsfield
You’re always so positive James, how do you do it?
James Robert
About to head to work for the day. Have a good one!
Sab Edwards
Well up early because we have a lot to do today. (5am) We have to head to the city to pick up the moving truck (i’ll just drop them off) and I’ll go do some shopping for a bit then head to the town where the moving truck will be and pick up my crew to bring back home. Not sure when these guys are actually moving…I work so have limited amounts of time to actually help out. If its during the week both my guys are still unemployed so they can help
Kate Sarsfield
Hi Sab, are you moving? Hope all’s well? Realise that you’re the only breadwinner but hope that all’s ok?
Judy Thomas
It’s chilly here so we are having a nice night in watching movies.
Kate Sarsfield
Judy, you’re in New Zealand, am I right? In Ireland, in May/June everything is going green, blossoming, taking root, so I think you guys must be heading into late Autumn? Which island are you on?
Nikolina Vukelic
It’s a beautifu, relaxed, sunnyl Saturday for me! 🙂
Kathleen Whitney
Very good Day! Made some Chocolate Snickerdoodles. And got some house work done!
Tamra Phelps
This is my home page comment. Not much going on. Another day in paradise…not, lol.
Tamra Phelps
What a day. Someday, I will tell you all about what it’s like to be stuck in a nursing home.
Kate Sarsfield
I used to run the office 5 days a week for a nursing home in S.E. London, just 30-35 residents and then at the weekends I did 12 hours Sat & Sunday. Everything from cutting toenails (ew!) to cooking roast dinners for the whole house in a tiny kitchen. I lived in staff quarters so was always on call as well. So honey child, I do know what it’s like to be stuck in a nursing home!
Tamra Phelps
Lol, they weren’t allowed to cut my toenails (diabetic), not even in hospital, so mine got as long as my fingernails before the podiatrist finally came and cut them.
Kate Sarsfield
Ew again! I don’t ‘do’ feet! I was the only one that was allowed to cut Dad’s toenails & we’re talking about diabetic, fungus, thick, yellow … When I was little and comparing mine to Mum’s & my sister’s, whose are bigger/longer but sort of plumper & prettier, well we used to say that mine were ‘the ugliest feet in Christendom’. Of course I now know better; they’re just plain ugly! Bony, wide & with a bunion on one of them (I did love my high heels); still they work just fine when I’m in the water! It’s only when I’m I’m on dry land that they start to ache.
email me/message me if you need to shout & let off steam – you have all my no.s
Debbie P
My day has been okay today. I’ve been a bit tired. But it’s the weekend and things can always be worse.
Maureen
I have had better days. Stressed.
Sarah L
Good swim class with lots of people. Then a salted caramel shake at Smashburger.
Why the change in forms? No entry for FB comments?
Calvin
Day has been quite busy! It’s cooler today too
CJ
I cannot believe it’s June…. before you know it… it will be the holidays. Very overcast… and humid today.
Gwendolyn Jordan
My day has been good
Kate Sarsfield
Just noticed no more ‘Hello, funnies etc. to your page? Aw, that can’t be right?
Kate Sarsfield
Here’s my home page comment: Re. the Visa outage, all Mum was worried about was how would she get her bottle of wine for the weekend!
Kate Sarsfield
Oh, poor Connie! You’ll get sorted eventually, son’t worry 🙂 As for me, a kind of bleh, nothing much happening day apart from this evening when it looked like the end of the world was nigh. Visa cards stopped working on a Friday evening of a public holiday weekend. WTF? Twitter was ablaze with comments about the folly of being a cash-free society etc. I just pity the shop staff, I’m sure they had to put up with a heck of a lot of abuse.
Kate Sarsfield
DON’T worry, not son’t – doh!
