Had rain most all night,,now appears its over till the next day.

Hubby looked out window,, said ,"Another boring day."
He's playing on his tablet & Mac is curled up on end of couch near him.

I'm wondering what to make for lunch.
Do some dusting & check guest room.


Maybe,get Mac to vet for booster shots.
 

@MickaC What? It's going to sNOw there? I'm so so sorry she said, after finishing up planting the rest of the bedding plants and sitting back in the sunshine to admire the lovely garden. It's already about 75F here at noon with an expected high temp today of 82F.
 

Pretty much took the last 3 days off, which is a big deal for me, but my body was talking to me. Back to work on the shop today. Got about 4" of snow last night and, and more due today and tomorrow, and then warming up again. Glad to get the moisture, but it was kind of nice to have the mud dried up for awhile. Oh well springtime in the Rockies. My Grosbeaks returned from their winter homes yesterday. Pretty bad pic, but gives you some idea. Really need to clean that window. They are one of my favorite birds, very well mannered on the feeder.

Laundry done , dried and put away.... reminded by @MickaC to put the wheelie bins out before it gets dark... we have recycle week which means to bins...

At this time 46 years ago I was on the last 12 hours of a 57 hour labour, 4 days before my 21st birthday , my dd was born in the morning of the 13th of April.... 🥰

57 hour labor? When did you forgive her for that, presuming you ever did?
 
Garbage picked up this AM but the neighbor has already brought his and my carts back to the house. I do have wonderful neighbors. Weather is warm and skies very overcast with storms and possibly tornadoes predicted for the afternoon and overnight hours. Plan to just stay in today and will do some laundry, dusting and vacuuming later.

Wishing her a happy birthday!
On an aside, I always thought the mom should be the one getting birthday gifts. What the heck, we're the ones doing all the labor. The babies just slide out like they're on an amusement park ride.

slide out like an amusement ride... hahaha... if only mine had done that... , but I agree, I've always thought it should be the mum who gets the gifts.. at no time do we do anything more important and more painful in our lives than that... :D
 
Happy Birthday to you and your daughter, @hollydolly. How wonderful that you get to celebrate together!

This morning it was rainy and dreary. I went out early to get groceries and within a few hours, the sky has cleared, the sun is shining, the birds are singing and there is the slightest breeze. It could not be more perfect. I've been working on all kinds of household administrative things today. I emailed two companies yesterday about products I purchased from them recently. One was an expensive (for me) deodorant that is made of all natural ingredients but made me break out in a rash. The other was for a face wash that I absolutely love but after two uses, the pump stopped working. I've heard back from the face wash company - they are sending me a check for $25 in the mail. Nothing yet from the deodorant people.

Today I scheduled the start of my lawn mowing service, called the company that services the heat pump at my house, also called for a septic inspection (although it was fine 7 years ago when I purchased this place, I want to have it checked again), moved a few of my investments around, exchanged emails with the manager of the hotel I stayed at while in Ireland last week and the week before (she wanted to know why my rating was low even though they claim to be a four star hotel so I sent her a list of reasons why) and I listed some things for sale on a few sites on the internet. Later I'll make some dinner then take the dog for a nice walk.
 
We don't usually celebrate together because she's beeen living abroad for many years.. and this year it looks like we might not be spending it together either because she's having her new house renovated every weekend, plus my Birthday is on Easter Sunday and the roads will be jammed with getaway traffic...

I know you'll both be together in your hearts.
 
thanks Jules..I'll pass that onto her... 🌷 yes the house is coming along given that the work can only be done at weekends and she only moved in 3 weeks ago... She's had all the inner walls and ceiling stripped and plastered, new kitchen sink and tap fitted.... New shed built and painted,,, the walls in her garden plastered and painted.. new curtain rails and blinds fitted in all rooms... , the attic boarded out, and then new lighting installed .... This month she's having the old bathroom ripped out and a new one installed...
