How is your day Today? Chat about your plans and achievements 2025....

We went to the Greek Festival at a local Greek Orthodox church tonight. It wasn't as good as previous years. The food was good, but pretty expensive. I always liked to look through the stuff they have for sale, but it was mostly gaudy, overpriced jewelry and doo-dads this year. Nothing that you don't see at street festivals. Previously, they had clothing and other things (I bought a beautiful shawl one year). There wasn't a lot of entertainment, either.

Another thing that they did not advertise on ANY of their websites or advertisements was the fact that they were charging $10 to park. There was a children's activities area but everything had a charge....bounce house, face painting, games and the prices were a bit steep. I didn't see a lot of kids participating.

We bought some food to bring home and eat. As I said, it was very tasty and we enjoyed it.

I'm pretty happy to spend money when it's going to a good cause, but based on this experience, we'll probably skip it in the future.
 

In the middle of the night I did accounting for my son and myself and updated our spreadsheets. At the break of dawn, after I made my prayers, I went downstairs and did a double load of laundry for the second time this week. I don't do that often, but I needed to be somewhat caught up. I've been wanting penne pasta with broccoli and mozzarella, so I made that this afternoon and had it for lunch. I also swept and wet Swiffered the bathroom floor.
 
Gorgeous day yesterday! I turned off the heat, left the fan going, opened the windows and got lots of fresh air. Probably the last time for that until spring.

Thursday, I cleaned the house, so yesterday I was pretty sore, but had to get out and clean up the bird seed mess before it starts to snow tonight. Hopefully it won’t be a lot. Ended up with a pulled muscle in my back which kept me awake last night.

Quilting is the only plan today!

Have a good one!

Good morning to everyone. I am waiting for grocery delivery. I have a shopper but do not know if he will get everything I ordered. Quite a few two for one.

It is in the 60's now and 80's later. We will be going out later this morning to do some other shopping.

Have a good day and stay well, everyone. :)
 
Waiting on packages to come. Cpap stuff I ordered. Might work today and tomorrow if one of the gals calls in. Today depends on when my packages arrive. But tomorrow I told them I would for sure. I usually don't get my mail til late on Saturdays. *shrugs*

Otherwise I might order from Arby's & watch tv and maybe work on a game I started the other night.

Well it's dark again... it's 4.45pm.. it seems like it was just a few minutes ago when it got dark last time.. the days definitely are very short..

It was my DD's last day at her job yesterday they all went out for a final dinner together..those few that were left to finalise the closing of the company....very sad she really made some good friends there.

She starts her new job on Monday... like almost everybody she's a little apprehensive because it's a different envronment to what she's used to.. a much bigger company.. big offices lot of empoyees.. I've just sent her a New job card to make her smile... but she's fine she knows she can do the job.. they actually created the job for her because she's so good at what she does...

Saturday night.. tonight will see the most fireworks and Bonfire parties celebrating Guy Fawkes night which was actually Wednesday.....

even now at 4.45pm I can hear fireworks going off in the distance..

Caught up on some sleep last night. Yesterday was unproductive. Haven't had the car out in two days. A trip to Aldi is in order.
 
:cry: sniff! I've come down with tummy troubles, so, I'll be staying home.
My O/H will pick up my SIL and go to the dinner. I hope he brings home some goodies for me, to have tomorrow.
