What's on your agenda for today?

A new year, a new day, nothing planned for the day, I've had a lovely time visiting with friends, but, I'm looking forward to returning to my own place. I some books and movies I want to catch up on reading and viewing. I think I'll mostly just star out the window and watch boob tube today.

So glad I had a chance to close out the year and start the new one in the company of good company. Wishing you all the best that this year has to offer.
 
Miss Bonnie, my sweet pittie, did not approve of the fireworks, etc. last night, and barked herself silly most of the post midnight hours. SOO, I slept late today and didn't do a whole lot of anything. Like Georgia, I considered some housework -- but I rejected the idea.
 

The sea is finally calming down even though the weather has been sunny with a good breeze but not high winds. So we might make it out into the kayak today. If not, a bike ride down to our favourite restaurant for an early dinner as we don't want to ride back in the dark. It gets dark by 6.
 
After much thought yesterday, I decided to get the housework done. I even folded the laundry. The trouble with getting it all done is that there's nothing left to do today:(

If it's sunny today, my daughter and I are going to ride our bikes around the subdivision. Sun is predicted but it was predicted for yesterday, too, and didn't happen.
 
Did some paddling in our kayak this afternoon. The sea finally calmed down. Tomorrow (Monday) plans are gym for me, laps in pool for hubby, then out to a seaside restaurant for lunch where we hope to book a 4 hour longboat trip which includes stops on 2 islands and snorkeling.
 
And includes posting more pictures, right?

Yesterday I bought the 21st Stephanie Plum book by Janet Evanovich. It's going with me to dog sit next weekend if I can keep my hands off it until then.
 
Gym - done. Skype sister in MI - done. Ride bikes to seaside restaurant. Done. Waiting for food. Will book our boat trip for snorkeling before we leave.
 
It's back to real life today. Almost. G'kids go back to school tomorrow.

It's colder than a banker's heart this morning, relatively speaking, and due to a brisk north wind supposed to feel 10-15 degrees colder than the 40F that's predicted. Guess I won't ride my bike today. I could probably handle the cold, but the wind might blow me over!

Maybe I'll rearrange a couple of pieces of furniture today. Or move the bed and vacuum under it. Or clean out the cupboard under the kitchen sink. Life in the fast lane is exhausting, I tell ya!
 
Went to the gym for the first time in years and showed my wife how to use various machines. Feeling good about this first visit. Didn't push too hard today. I can see this becoming a regular place for me to visit since it's open 24 hours.

I keeled over once from low blood sugar (this was years ago). It was a super busy day at work and I was rushing all day to be sure I could be done in time to meet a friend to see a play. Didn't take time to eat. So, I fainted dead away at the play and never did get to see it (besides which it was embarrassing to just inelegantly flop over in the middle of a public place and all the fuss and all). Docs said low blood sugar, and I got a big lecture. I still have to be aware of not going too long without eating. I'm not usually hungry in the morning so sometimes it's not till afternoon that I eat, and that is not a good plan.

Glad you got the approval to drive!
 
Spent 4 hours this morning/afternoon on a longboat snorkeling and swimming trip stopping on two islands. Georgia, pics are in the diary. :D
 
Hit the gym this morning, even though it felt like -6°F (with the windchill). Yes, I can do this! Now it's time to work, so I've logged on to my office.
 
Bobw, would you mind a little extra effort on my behalf? It's been too cold and windy to ride my bike for the past couple of days.

Kadee, yay for a clean bill of health and glad you're cleared to drive again.

Ameriscot, loved today's pictures (or yesterday's, whichever applies). I'm getting smart...check for pictures before coming here. LOL
 
This wasn't one of my best days, rush, rush, rushing to the point I ran out of the house this morning with two different sneakers on. I didn't realize it till after I left my first appointment. At first I was mortified than I started laughing hysterically, I mean what else could I do, there wasn't anywhere to hide, so, I had to just see the humor in my mix-up. That's what I get for trying to decide between two pairs and then letting my mind drift to something else and then noticing the time on the clock and making a mad dash for the door forgetting to change the other sneaker to the match the it's pair I had decided on. I had wondered why this one lady on the bus kept staring at me to the point of great annoyance. I'm used to people giving me lingering looks for complimentary reasons, but, this turns out not to be one of those instances deservedly so. Yep, in my own little cra cra world :turnaround:
 
I'm sure it didn't seem so when you first discovered it, but...that is too funny. I did that once with a pair of heels that I was wearing to work. Exactly the same style but one black and one navy blue. I was mortified!
 
LOL, April. I went to the mall here in my slippers one day!

Georgia, thanks. I'm 12 hours ahead of you.

QS, well done!

Been to the gym. I get there when it opens at 7. Going to the mall shortly to have a coffee then do our shopping. Don't know what we'll do after that. Might go out in the kayak late in the afternoon.
 
Ah the best laid plans of cats and men...I had everything rounded up to go to the nice warm library and spend a couple hours posting applications. Then of course the new book stacks started calling to me..."Just come by and say hello, you haven't met some of us before"...when I looked up it was time to fetch kid from school. So tomorrow I'll post twice the applications, I had a good time.
 
Rough Day Today!

Sittin', finally, in a hotel in Mesa, Arizona, within gettin' distance of the other big Phoenix area airport, Mesa Airport. Gettin' here was a drag, I argued unsuccessfully with my wife that a 5-hour drive would do it (half-way across the state), and leaving at 5AM on flight day, tomorrow, would easily get us to Mesa by noon, at the latest, her flight is at 2PM.

Her wisdom prevailed, she reserved this room in a rather luxury, swanky area, an update I am not suited for. There are two major ways to get here, either requiring traversing Phoenix in it's entirety to reach Mesa. I took the longer today, which is half-way Interstate I-10. Mistake. Getting to I-10, two-lanes well over 100 miles, passes directly through Lake Havasu City and Parker, congested as hell. And raining, folks driving crazy, a small Kia upside down along the way, geez.

I asked AZJim about the other route some weeks ago. He informed it is very busy; I haven't driven it in 20 years or more, and of course this area (and State) has continued to grow like nuts. I-10 came to a standstill 5 miles before our cut-off to Mesa, still mid-afternoon, not rush hour yet; she remarked these folks do this twice a day, every working day! Having lived rurally 13 years in Missouri after 20 years in the Phoenix area, and now the past 3 semi-rural near Laughlin, Nevada, I today got a dose of what we have been missing! I will be returning home tomorrow, alone. Then the return flight, two weeks henceforth, do it again!

Nuts! imp
