What's on your agenda for today?

Jackie, I hope the healing process goes well for you. Take care.

Annie, that bike sounds like great fun!

Partly cloudy here today with a chance of rain by the end of the week. Fingers crossed. It's nice weather for walking and I'll do that after my yoga class today. I hope you all have a super Monday!
 

Thank you for all your best wishes you're so kind all of you..I wish I had you all living over here ((hugs))...Jackie I'm so sorry you had to go into hospital..Diverticulous is horrible..and to have the flare up on your holiday was just the worst. Glad you're better now and welcome home...:D


Incidentally the Car photos are now on the photography thread for anyone who want to see them.. :D
 
How's everyone today?

Went to the gym this morning. Cloudy with showers and occasional sun. Really need a sunny day when my bike arrives. Want to try out some of the steeper hills around here with the help of the battery. :cool:
 

It's a beautiful hot sunny day here today Annie...the lawns have had a topping again to keep them looking pristine. .I've cleaned the floors on my hands and knees (carefully)...and sat out on the swing seat for a while. It's a little windy tho' but not cold.. Tomorrow I am going to attempt to return to work, just for a couple of days if I can, I really want to try and get myself fit enough and ready for my holiday in June..it's always such a full itinerary.

I really wish I could have a bike like yours, but the surgeon has said cycling is a no no for the lower back...so enjoy yourself when the sun comes out, I know you will. vil2_velo.gif

Thanks. You would probably do fine on a bike like we hired in Belgium. It is the type that everyone of every age rides to the market. You sit up straight, not bent over, as the handlebars are high. I found this the most comfortable bike I've ever ridden. Don't even know if you can buy them here.

Don't overdo at work tomorrow!
 
Hello, all. Everyone sounds like they're having fun.
Cooler and breezy here.... think I'll tackle a bit of dusting... and maybe water my plants, they look a bit limp.
AS, your bike sounds like it will be really fun. I wish I had one, but will look around for a sale.
Shali, pillow on the rear? Have a good day and enjoy the poetry readings.
Holly, congrats on the floor, I am impressed and ashamed, as I only use a crummy stick mop. Take care.
Glinda, have good weather and good times today.
 
Good morning, Cookie and all......it is kinda damp here, hoping for sunshine later, I have someone coming to clean up the yard today, I'm not quite up to yard work yet. Everyone have a great day.
 
Acccch isn't it always the way jujube.. :rolleyes:

G'morning all...well I'm off back to work today after 2 weeks off..and hoping that I'll manage to get through ok..I don't HAVE to go but I've got to try, I don't like being at home and being paid..I feel I should at least make an attempt at it..I can always come home early if it gets a little too much.:D

Shali..hope your poetry session went well and everyone was rapt, I'm sure they were..

Good luck with the GI doctor today Jackie .
 
Holly - I hope you are feeling physically ready and able to return to the job and hope all goes well when you get there. Sometimes it's hard to know when to return to work after an illness - when I had a hysterectomy, the doctor told me to not go back to work for five weeks but instead I went back after about four weeks and that first week back was really a big hurdle. My boss seemed nervous that I was going to fall down or something but I made it through in any event. To me, feeling and being in good health are central to everything else in life. I'll be thinking about you.

Yesterday, I went to the plastic surgeon to have the bumps taken off my head and also one on my arm. The stitches kind of pull a bit but I'm glad this part is over with. Today I'm seeing my family doctor (PCP) to see where to go from here with other stuff needing to be addressed, after which he'll send me off to whatever breed of doctor can follow through. It would be great to just have to be seen by one doctor but that's just not in the cards.

After the head sewing yesterday, I came home and took a nap so I could go to book club and not fall asleep. Book club went fine - we discussed Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand after which somebody recommended that we next read a book that didn't have anything violent or scary in it. I saw the Unbroken the movie but didn't read the book (yeah, I cheated). While Unbroken did have a good deal of violence in it, the group was hard-pressed to think of a book completely devoid of anything upsetting. I'm going through my books to see if there is such a thing in my stacks that's completely serene but I sure doubt it.

My alliums in my flower bed have bloomed and they look so great! I am grateful to any flower that just requires that you plop a little bulb into the ground and then forget about it for the rest of time.

Hope everyone's day is the wonderful gift that it is!
 
Kath, Jackie and Holly, I hope you're all feeling better today.

Shali, please treat us to some of your poetry someday. How about a poem about SF?!

I think I slept wrong last night as I have a little pain in my back. Yoga class should take care of it. Looks like partly cloudy today in San Diego. They're predicting a chance of rain this weekend. Fingers crossed!
 
Hope everyone is healthy and at least relatively painless. :)

Spent the day in Glasgow yesterday, leaving very early and arriving home after 7pm. Husband and his brother and their aunt were taking care of some business having to do with an uncle who has dementia. While they were doing that I went shopping for clothes. We met up for lunch in a pub which lasted a few hours and I really enjoyed listening to them all talk about when they were young. After they left husband and I also had dinner in town as our journey home consisted of train/ferry/car.

Been to the gym this morning to work off the two pints of beer I had yesterday. ;)
 
Flying this afternoon from Harrisburg to Charlotte. Staying overnight and will return tomorrow late. Not going to be a good day for flying. We are looking at showers and cooler temps, which means a bumpy flight down, anyway.
 
Good morning Glinda, Ameriscot and oldman.

Glinda, I hope yoga straightened out your back. Yoga is great to make one feel better,
both mentally and physically.

AM, It sounds like you had a lovely time yesterday,
a day out is always a nice break from routine.

oldman, you live an exciting life with all the flying. Hope it was a good flight and
not too bumpy.

I am doing routine chores today, working around the garden and yard and housework.
We are putting mulch around the shrubs and layers of newspaper underneath it.
That helps keep weeds from growing through the mulch.
Have a good Thursday everyone.
 
Good Morning everyone, I woke up to pouring down rain this morning, we've had rain every day now for some time.....many Texas areas are flooding and most all lakes are filled again, which is good, I did manage to get the yard mowed yesterday in between rains......so much for the weather report from Texas.

My doctor appointment went well yesterday morning and I continue to feel better, I hope everyone else is well, also thinking of Holly and her back to work day, Annie glad you had a nice day out yesterday.
