Hey, how's it going today for you? It's 2023. An alternate thread for different people.

Great day…my neighbour has been encouraging me to accompany her to her line dancing class. Today was the day, I finally agreed. What a lot of fun and super exercise 👯‍♂️

Have to get my cowboy hat, already have some great leather boots, then I’ll really be looking the part 🤠👢
 

I am recouping today, from my overly exhausting and stressful day yesterday, which included needing to go out in the cold, and to get through the uncleared snow in paths and lots, in order to get to a long, confusing dental appointment. (not a rewarding or relaxing destination;))

I was so thoroughly worn out after all of that, that I fell apart in pieces, but have been slowly putting my pieces back together again! (like Humpty Dumpty did?:rolleyes:)

I wrote down a new idea list, today, to help myself to focus on coping as well as possible. Just simple reminders that I can brainstorm for myself, to look at, when I forget. (which is frequently o_O)
Going to nap, soon. Whew!

Sorry you have to get out in bad weather. That is why I went out today, our weather is turning cold and wet. I also hate the dentist, let me rephrase that, I love my dentist I just don't appreciate the procedures we often require. Since you say you have waited, don't put it off, go and get it over with. You will be relieved and not have to worry about it later. Our teeth are important and we should do what is needed for good dental health.

Thank you for all of this thoughtful and kind response, @Blessed.

I'm waiting for a package to be delivered. I discovered yesterday that people have been knocking at my door but I haven't heard them, so I decided it would be a good idea to buy a doorbell. I just hope it doesn't frighten my guinea pigs.

I worry about my pets' reactions too. We don't want anything to scare them. I hope the doorbell works out well.

I sympathize with you having to go out in that bad weather and to the dentist never the less. I wish I could give you a hug. I find making a list helps me too. I have a few of them. I hope everything works out well for you. 🌸❤️

Enjoy your nap Kaila 🌹
 
I have done my daily walk (1 hr) and ran some errands. Staying inside as we are expecting up to 10-15 cm of snow from the afternoon to Thurs. morning. I am driving my son into work tonight at 10 p.m. if the snow isn't too deep. I have been watching the Star Trek: The Next Generation with Captain Picard (Patrick Stewart) every evening.

I'm doing great too....
Unpacked my Susie Wong cheongsam…still fits like a glove. All in preparation for Chinese New Year Celebration.

The menu I am told includes Peking Duck (my favourite), Jai (Budha’s delight), Stir fried shrimp with XO sauce, Nian Gao( glutinous rice) and a variety of Chinese cakes and desserts. So looking forward to this feast.

If you celebrate, have a great time!

Happy New Year, good luck and fortune, peace and joy in the New Year of the Water Rabbit!
 
I got out of bed, let the dogs out, got myself a diet coke and plunked myself down on the couch. I have been up and down, dogs in and out, the long walk to the bathroom, many times. Had some toast. It has just been exhausting LOL.

Son called and asked me how to go about getting a new roof. He said there have been shingles coming off. Told him to call his insurance first, see if it due to storm damage. I think he is going to be surprised. This will be his first foray into the cost of having a home. I don't know what kind of deductible or replacemet costs they have on their homeowners policy.
 
Twas Rabbie Burns Day today, but we'll have Haggis on the weekend. We celebrated the Chinese New Year with a takeaway and made the Chinese delivery man happy by wishing him a happy new year in Chinese courtesy of Google Translate.

We must have pronounced correctly as he said thank you with a bow and he had huge smile then said: "That's great speaking... Thank you!" Made our day, daughter and I. The food was delish as usual.

Received packages from Amazon and installed the new items. Great... We were supposed to go out but after waking up so early, from delivery, that we fell asleep and woke up too late. I hate this time of year due to the too early darkness and the sun was already behind the clouds.

Expecting the rest of order until Monday. Fingers-crossed they arrive earlier than promised 👍. Scored off quite a few things off our to-do list. Sad to read hubby's handwritten notes on it, but daughter and I promised to fulfill the list after he died and we're doing good. Slowly but surely. One day at a time. How's your alternate day?
