What's on your agenda for today?

Ah, yes. Just remember this: if it's not one thing, it's your mother!

Jujube, if your tongue starts bleeding, it will be time to send your mama home.
 
My Bonnie seems to be getting better -- she is back to eating well and barking at the mailman and anybody walking past the house. She's still not 100% though -- maybe it's the new med making her a bit sleepy.

I'm going to take her on a short walk tomorrow.
 
Gym then tuk tuk to the mall. Checked our airplane seats to make sure the airline didn't change them and they had changed mine to a middle seat. Grr so I changed it back to aisle. We both hate middle seats so we had booked across the aisle from each other. Now I'm sitting in front of hubby. On our third flight though we have a row that only has two seats. Perfect. One aisle one window.
 
Ameriscot, are you one of those people who checks and checks and checks again and turns up at the airport a day early? (I am) Which seat do I get?

Had a nice visit with my neighbor and her 3-year-old granddaughter yesterday afternoon.

I'd thought about folding the laundry as soon as it came out of the dryer yesterday, but decided that since it's something I rarely do right away it would be best to let it sit in the basket for a while. Don't want to throw myself all off kilter:)

This morning I'm going to start fertilizing perennials in the garden...sort of encouraging Mother Nature to spring us from winter.

I'm actually less OCD about airport stuff than I used to be, but still paranoid I'll forget something, etc. I do like to get to the airport 2 hours early even though we always do online check in.

As for seats....first flight is no big deal about the seats as it's only a one hour flight - our island to Bangkok. Then due to the airline messing with me I'm now in an aisle seat right in front of hubby on our flight from Bangkok to Dubai. Then we spend the night at the Dubai airport hotel and catch the flight to Glasgow in the morning. Hubby and I have seats together in a row of 2 - him window, me aisle. Everybody happy.

We got you first class seats. Hope that's okay? :D Flight 1 - 1 hour. Flight 2 - 7 hours. Flight 3 - 7+ hours

3 year olds are so entertaining aren't they? Hub's grandson will be 4 in April. Adorable and so clever.

Oh, goody! Erste Klasse ist am besten! I won't have time to guzzle enough champagne on the first leg, but the rest is just dandy!

Ja! First flight won't be that great - it's just Bangkok Airways. No champagne. But the next two flights will have plenty. Even in cattle class you get great stuff! Emirates, my favourite airline.
 
I am about to start the homemade quilt I am making for my grand-baby. Naturally the theme is Super Mario Brothers, my son having grown up in the video game world.. ( They are having a boy). I had already made a Paddington Bear one for them lol.. But my son was " Mum can you make anything fabric Super Mario brothers?" So what can you do but accommodate after all it will be my first and hopefully not last grand-baby.
 
Well, kids. The perennials have been fertilized. Lilliput has been cleaned, and I even washed the kitchen floor. Now what?

The promised sunshine hasn't happened, but it's a pleasant 60F.
 
Georgia, got a good book to read? Fur, the weather sounds like it's been very weird.

No change in weather here. The sea has calmed down so I guess we'll be paddling our boat today. Then we'll wash it and get it dry so we can deflate it and store it until we come back in December.

Got my suitcase mainly packed but it's going to be tight. Hope I can get it all in. I'm leaving tons of stuff behind in storage, sandals, tank tops, cotton gowns, etc.
 
Hmmm.....packing nightmares. Did I really have to buy so many harem pants for myself and for other people? And embroidered handbags? Argghhhh. And I still have to pack some of what I'm wearing this week as well as my toiletry bag. I've definitely learned what not to bring next winter. Should have learned it last year.

And when I'm done fighting with this case I have to pack crates for the stuff we are leaving in storage here for next winter.

Funny, AS, reminds me of the Vegas flight part in Bridesmaids (if you saw that) hilarious.

Don't rememeber seeing it. But the times we've upgraded to business have been memorable. You get treated like royalty! Especially on airlines like Emirates. It's so nice I hated arriving and having to get off the plane!
 
Butterfly, how's our Bonny today? Back to her old self yet?

Ameriscot! Good grief, woman. It's not as though you haven't traveled before. What the heck is the problem? My virtual luggage is neatly packed with all my own virtual stuff and all the virtual stuff I got for my virtual friends with none of it over the virtual weight limit.

BTW, Ameriscot, I always flew business class here to Europe and within Europe. Why? Because it wasn't my dime paying for it:)

Another warm and rainy day. Sigh. Why can't it just be spring?

Everything in Lilliput has been cleaned to a fare thee well, the laundry has been folded and put away, and I can't play outside. Yes. I have a book. I have a book that is for sure a good read and very entertaining...Top Secret Twenty-One by Janet Evanovich...but I've only had it about a month, and it needs to age a little. I have a new knitting book that appears to be more geared to those who aren't true left-handers and are dexterity challenged, and I have my grown-up coloring book. There's Netflix and plain old TV. So what the Dickens is my problem?

Being lonely and bored isn't all that bad just as long as everybody knows I'm lonely and bored. Never mind the comments about being whiny! LOL
 
This is the first day in a week or two that I've been home except for yesterday and we were gone shopping all day. So today I have to unpack and clean house. I need to get to it.

Yesterday I bought a big plastic sprayer to get rid of a car size area of grass in my back field. I call it MY back field because I told my husband and brother they couldn't put any of their vehicles and other stuff out there. I want it left natural although the brush pile (which we burn once or twice a year) is OK. I have to find a recipe I copied down the other day of vinegar, Dawn dish soap and Epsom Salts and spray it. My brother says it won't work but he's just mad cause we won't let him use Round Up anymore.

One of my grandson's has a car he hopes to sell to California's Cash For Clunkers program for $1500 stored here. Now my husband is getting ready to build a carport over an old pick up that our second oldest son has stored here for a few years and our grandson's car is next to it and will get in the way. I told him he can put it out in my back field till he gets all the paperwork from California filled out etc. I also told the 2 older guys here that just because I let my grandson put something out there doesn't mean they will ever get to. So anyway, I need to go out and spray an area out there sometime today. I imagine I'll ask my husband to show me how to use a sprayer and then he'll show me and do the whole thing himself.

It's after 10 a.m. now, I'll be back later.
