On my video game there's going to be an upcoming event for a kimono parade. I designed a flyer for the guy to advertise it & made my own uchiwa fan & kimono. *Giggles* Eyes need a break so gonna go tackle that sink full of dishes & get some food.
 
A collection of new plants arrived today for the conservatory. Lots of time spent deciding which plant goes where. Pure joy, after the ding dongs on the forum today....sigh...🌱🌱🌱

Sometimes I forget I am not on an Aussie forum...so let me explain..."ding dong" refers to arguments. Not to people, no jumping to conclusions !
 
On my early morning walk,it was noticeably cooler than it has been the past couple of days.It was 45 with a bit of wind,still refreshing,the sun was coming up
This week's 'road trip' with Mary,going to Kohl's looking for new purse,New Balance walking shoes,then to our favorite # store
The rest of my day before the rain comes,hope to get in a couple of walks

I didn’t notice any arguments, I noticed the usual disagreements during discussions, I noticed an attempt to turn a thread political, and I noticed later that the thread was closed. This is somewhat normal for the forum, IMO, except the closing of threads. But closing threads happens every now and then.

As for jumping to conclusions, jumping to conclusions happens pretty often, what people write is sometimes deliberately misunderstood in order to put forth another person’s, their, agenda, or what we write, since we are for the most part not professionals, can be miswritten or misinterpreted which adds misunderstanding.

Sometimes name calling occurs as people try and press their point on other people, so insistent on being right. But arguments, 😂, we are all friends here, we would never argue, would we? 😇

An update,Mary called me this morning not feeling well,she apologized.I told her'lets try for next Weds', would bring her mail up to her door she thanked me. Every week,I give her my Thurs NYT when I'm done reading it except for the Arts Section.She loves reading it
 
Picked up 6 Henning Mankell books from the library. Put them in order. Can't wait to start reading :)

It was so warm today .. I wore an all-weather coat, but could have done with a light sweater. Saw a couple of people wearing shorts and sleeveless tees.

I didn't get a whole lot done today but right now as we speak I am baking a ground turkey meatloaf. I put a strip of ketchup on the top. In an hour I'll see how good or how bad it turned out. At least I got one thing done today. Ah yes, walked the doggie, too and fed the pets. Maybe tomorrow I'll start in on the Spring Cleaning I need to do...at least I'll try to after I get the vaccine.
 
Went to physical therapy, then to get more lotto scratchers, told the cutie at the mini mart gas station that I was old enough to be his mother, but that he sure was cute lol!

Off to Kohl's for some new tennis shoes, haven't owned a pair in 20 yrs. Then to the grocery store.
I'm pooped....should sleep good tonight.

Other than usual chores......did pick up, picking stuff up that just got left wherever, went in their proper places.

I LOVE a window above the sink.....BUT.....they are a pain to clean.....cleaned it this morning......lets see, up on a short ladder, one foot on the counter, one on the ladder, one hand on the window frame for holding on, one hand left, used it to clean......did this set up twice.....one side, then the other side.

Welcome to being short.....short arms, short legs...... don't like ladders, don't like standing on the counter.......in otherwards, just plain chicken.

After all that......window looks great.

What a story this was. :cautious:o_O🙃😜🤪🙃

I can relate. I do the same thing when trying to clean my kitchen window.
Then outside, trying to balance on the step stool on uneven ground. Just an accident waiting to happen.

Cleaning windows? The rain or a hose cleans the windows on the outside, a curtain covers the windows on the inside. Why on earth would anyone need to clean a window? I am trying to remember if I’ve ever cleaned anything but a car window. 🤔

Nope, I have not. Wait, hmm, oh yeah, when the curtain is opened, and the window is opened, and a fly touches down on a window, and you hit that fly with a fly swatter; you might need to clean a spot on the window or just wait till the ants show up. 🤣

And then there's the outside of the windows.
Every place i've lived, i have needed an 8ft step ladder, and holding onto dear life on the second step from top.....
There's people who do windows.....aren't there.:unsure::unsure::unsure::unsure::unsure::unsure:
