What's on your agenda for today?

Now a Star Trek style Teleporter would be very useful. I wonder if they will be able to invent something similar in the future?

Cool! I wouldn't mind using a teleporter...could be fun.

Yep, I would definitely want a go in one of those. To teleport over to my home island for an hour or two to have a bit of banter with my Baby Sister would be great fun!:) When we had teased each other enough, I could teleport right back home again!
 
My mama is coming to visit for a couple of weeks, so I'm in the process of changing the spare room from a craft room/storage room/throw-it-in-and-close-the-door-room back into a guest room. Now where to put all the stuff? Actually, it's been very liberating.....I've made three trips to drop stuff off at the charity store in the last week.
 
Just making some lunch/early dinner for a special visitor today, spinach quiche, ratatouille, and maybe salad. Gotta go roll out that crust, cut that eggplant, slice those tomatoes.

Have a great visit with your mom, jujube, she's a lucky lady to have a nice daughter like you.
 
Cookie! Did I forget that you invited me? Are you sure it was today? I neglected to write it on my calendar. Dear me. I'm going to miss spinache quiche. I really like quiche of any sort, but nobody under this roof would deign to eat real food except me.

I like ratatouille, too. And salads are nice.

I long for real food served in bowls and on platters at a table that's been set with real dinnerware. Remember placemats and tablecloths? remember the family sitting down together at mealtime? Sometimes I think I'm the one out of step and that most other people eat drive-thru food or have pizza delivered five or six nights a week.

Sigh.
 
Georgia, eat dinner with me, I will bring out the antique china, crystal glasses, and my grandparent's monogrammed silver
cutlery! Even a linen tablecloth. Do you like pot roast? Apple pie for desert?
 
Pot roast. Check. Apple pie. Check.Wine? Do we get wine? My grampa insisted that red wine builds red blood and even the kids at the dinner table got wine...mixed with copious amounts of water.

My grampa could eat peas with his knife. And if we asked him for more vegetables or meat or whatever, he'd say "never mind the vegetables (or whatever we were asking for); hush up and eat."

After a stroke he regained his motor skills but could only speak French. We'd ask for seconds, and he'd still say the same thing...only in French.
 
Today I decided to run like a rat on the treadmill that has been collecting dust. Actually that's not entirely true. Walking like a crippled mouse with 3 legs would be more accurate.. Listening to audio books on the Kindle that I bought myself for Christmas makes it more bearable. Notice I didn't say enjoyable. Hopefully I can shed a few pounds. At my age I'm not doing it for my looks,I'm beyond that. I just know my poor messed up knees feel better when they have less weight to haul around.
 
Weds:
Went to the gym this morning. Guess we'll take a tuk tuk to the mall as we need bread and cantelope and oranges. We'll have a cappuccino while we are there....or I'll behave and have an Americano.
 
Oops, Georgia, no worries. It seems you are quite in demand for dinners. We went ahead without you, so maybe next time we can confirm our plans. And we didn't have wine either, so you did better with the roast.
 
Understandable, Georgia. Don't want to be rude.

Can I entice you to join us with a mai tai or margarita with those cute wee umbrellas, maybe a Thai noodle dish with chicken and cashews, and a pancake (crepe) filled with banana and nutella for desert? Outdoor seating on the beach with a nice sea breeze and temp around 80?
 
Wow, Ameriscot....how could I refuse an invitation such as that? I couldn't! I can't. I'm in and will be there as soon as I power up my broom. Yum.

And it's a perfect time to breeze on over, too, because it's a nippy 24F here.

Brrr....come on over. Use your broom or the teleporter.
 
Today I am looking forward to having some one to one time with my first born daughter while she colors my hair. I bought the highlights kit too but the instructions are just a little to iffy for me to try at this time. I like to step out of my comfort zone one step at a time...so for today we will do just the color and not the highlights.IMG_1755.JPG
 
Babs, do we get before and after pics?

I no longer colour my hair as I'm becoming allergic. But I coloured it for decades and had it highlighted a couple of times and it looked really good.
 
A bit of a lazy day. Cycled to lunch, swim in the pool, and will cycle to dinner.

I'm very ready to start packing for our trip on Sunday. 3 nights on a quiet island being spoiled. Tomorrow - massage and I think I've got hubby talked into getting his very first massage.
 
My lazy day was yesterday, but it didn't include swimming in a pool or cycling. Mostly, I just sat on my dead center.

But today? Today I get to go to work. Woohoo and stuff. And I get to play with *my* dog again. And get paid to do it.

Gotta toddle off and eat breakfast, get dressed, get gone! I'll be back this afternoon so y'all behave while I'm gone.

:) You certainly do Ameriscot. Here's the before: IMG_8862.JPG

And here's the after:IMG_1760.JPG

No dramatic highlights yet as my daughter set I got the wrong color for the highlights. But she also said with all the silver that was in my natural hair there is light highlights even with just the color. My husband and girls love my new color...I still startle myself everytime I pass a mirror and see that bright red head looking back at me. :)
