What are you doing today?

[GeorgiaXplant]

Since I will be having company over in the upcoming week......I decided I better do some dusting. I can't remember the last time I did it lol.
Also, a sorry attempt to clean the oven. I really just wanted to see how quick the oven cleaner worked after spraying it on. That's on my to do list for tuesday while my car is at the mechanics.

Folded some clothes, took out some trash, sent a couple of holiday greetings via text to a couple of people, and here I am.
Hallmark movies next.

Dusting? Dusting, you say? Meh. I was going to dust but decided against it because it'll just accumulate again. Maybe I'll do that on Thursday because DS and his husband are coming for lunch on Friday. No need to rush into it. After all, I dusted before Thanksgiving.

Hello Lewkat,
So glad all went well with the procedure. May I ask you this: did the doctor say how the moisture accumulated?
Also, do you use lubricating eye drops? I use these and am wondering if it can be a cause. Something I shall ask my own doc when I see him.
.

My eye surgeon told me to use as much lubricating eye drops as I want and need. I get extremely dry eyes and have sometimes been vision impaired because of dry eyes. So I don’t think it hurts you.

 

[Aneeda72]

I have an appointment with an orthopedic surgeon tomorrow and then on Tuesday, I'm taking the great-granddaughters (2 and 5) to Legoland.

Pray for me. I should have stopped shaking and be sane enough to post by New Year's Day.....LOL.

If you read about an old lady who has barricaded herself behind a wall of Legos and won't come out, well, that'll be me....

I love Legoland, I wanna come.

Just as I thought to myself I'll take a trip into the Metropolis... they've announced today that the train timetables have cut back severely given that Londoners are now working from home again... so now there's no reliable timetable... ( driving into the capital is for mad dogs only )... the train takes just 30 minutes to go 20 miles into the city... driving can take anything up to 3 hours depending on the time of day...

Oh well maybe another day...

Tomorrow it's supposed to be sunny albeit cool, so I hope to get out somewhere then...

 

[katlupe]

I don't have much planned outside of doing some household chores. Using my LegExerciser for 5-10 minutes, depending on how long I can do it. It doesn't use my energy but is good for my edema. A week from today, my appointment is FINALLY coming up for the Lymphedema therapy clinic. And today, I am going to start a small routine with the hand weights for my arms. Doing some food prep this morning. That's all I know for right now.

Have a good day!

Today i'll start catching up on here.
Internet has been down the last few days.
Doesn't look like i was missed here.......just like a ghost in the sky......lol...lol.
Wasn't totally lost.....always have puzzles downloaded.....did a few extra.....did some extra cleaning.....and trying to get myself to go to bed earlier, that's a success.

@MickaC
I wondered where you were .. glad to see you back!

 

[Liberty]

Taking a brief recovery from family being here for a few days...baking macadamia nut triple chocolate chip cookies for the fire dept. and frosting some other cookies for our second wave of "family" tomorrow. Then looks like we are home free to enjoy the
predicted 82° Christmas day weather together.

Have a Gardenia bush, Mandevilla and Sweet Olive bushes all in bloom!

Have a super good day, folks.

 

[jujube]

I love Legoland, I wanna come.

I'll pick you up on the way. We'll see how much you love it after 8 hours with the little heatherns.

Good Morning folks....today I'll do some 'pre-cooking' for my dinner tomorrow night and that's about it.....everyone have a good day, thoughts and good wishes for all not feeling well.

@Mizmo
Those hats are adorable and well stitched! I am sure the baby ones, are wonderful, as well!

The baby beanies are made with store bought baby yarn but these ones I make from bags of yarn one can sometimes find and buy in the charity shops . Bits and pieces so they can be hats of many colours !

we always miss you if you;re not here.. but at this time of year we expect some people are busy... so that's what I thought about you... ..it's actually against the law for you to have your internet down dontchaknow?

I am pretty self centered lately and concentrating mostly on my son Joey who is in my thoughts 24/7. I read stuff, see stuff, reply to stuff, and do stuff more by rote rather than consciously. Forgetting in the most of doing something that I am doing it.

So I admit, I did not notice you were not on. Sorry. Glad your internet is working again.

 

[Sliverfox]

So far have walked the dog two times,played with the dog,,looked for the new bone that he got.
Trying to plan lunch, grumble to myself..


Time for a doctor check up mid week,, thinking about canceling it.

 

[Aunt Bea]

Waiting for Christmas!

This morning I made some sugar free cinnamon pecans and chocolate covered pecans as a little Christmas treat.

Dog needs a brushing, and a ground beef burger prepared.

Taking my youngest daughter out for lunch. Maybe volunteer at the library afterward.

I had thought you might be very happily busy with the arriving of your friend. I didn't remember the timing of that.
In any case, It's great to see you! Glad you dropped by here!

@Shero
I don't think the eye lubricating drops have anything to do with that type of moisture that forms behind the lenses after cataract surgery.
The drops would act like extra teardrops, that are on the surface.

 

[Kaila]

I'll pick you up on the way. We'll see how much you love it after 8 hours with the little heatherns.

I wanted to come too, but perhaps you might make another separate trip to LegoLand, just to take @Aneeda72 and myself?

We promise, we'll be good. Well, moderately good....hmmm....
Intermittently good?

 

[Kaila]

He didn’t scrape it. He gave me shots and dug a bit out, it’s scabbed over now.

Yes, dug out is what I meant. I couldn't think of a word for it, so I said, scrape, which I knew wasn't quite right.
I had one dug out, too. They said to put sterile Vaseline on it, for the first while.
It wasn't on my face, which might be done very differently. On my leg, they went quite deep. Took it all out, sent to lab. Yes, bad, but they said they got it, with clear margins, and that I will need to have more regular checks, now that I have this history.

It was very slow healing.

 

[Jules]

Laundry. Flip the mattress. It’s heavy, even with two of us doing it.
Go with DH for his appointment and I’ll do some quick shopping.
Pick up the tray of burned garlic toast buns; it’s cold in that outdoor refrigerator. It was a real mess when I noticed them burning.
Walk, it’ll be a short one in this weather.
Order pickup for lunch.
No excitement planned for the afternoon.

@MickaC I noticed you were missing too. Chalked it up to this busy time of year.

I had that done on the outside thigh a few years ago and it was slow healing as well. I wonder if the thigh does not heal well in general.

I have that issue with spelling. I can think of the word I want but can’t spell it and Alexa does not like the way I pronounce it so I have to use another word. . Or I just can not think of the word, and sit and sit and sit, trying to think of a different word. Life is so hard.

 

[Aneeda72]

Well, it finally happened.

I got the last word in with @win231.

After I replied to something win said, the discussion was locked. Score a “WIN” for me.

I know how you feel......
My phone (landline) and internet, and TV were down since tuesday, due to the rains. I was able to rec've local channels tho. Finally got it fixed on friday.

The phone guys fixed my old lines, splitting them in to 2..one for my phone, one for the internet. So in the event that
this happens again, I won't lose both of those at the same time. Thankful.
