What's on your agenda for today?

Ameriscot, we aren't spending our last few days packing are we? The only packing we should be doing is packing ourselves full of fun and relaxation between now and departure time because it's a long time until December!

My client doesn't want me until 2. I do my best work early, but it can't be helped so I'll live with it and be grateful that at least I have something to do when my laundry is done today.


ETA: Guess our posts crossed...happy birthday!

Would be just a bit of a problem if we didn't pack. Shouldn't take a ton of time, I've got my suitcase mostly done and just need to toss other stuff in crates for storage. The manager knows how much we have and have given us a price to keep them for 9 months.

I will get one more swim in the pool tomorrow between chocolate and dinner.

Besides, there is travel between now and our return. Are you ready for our long bicycle trips around Scotland??

I prefer to get work done early as well.

Thanks. Had a nice birthday.
 
Bicycle trips. Well. My bike is just an old-fashioned bike with coaster brakes and no gears or anything like that! You've got that swell new bike that does everything except start the coffee and let the cat out. I'll have to stay home and mind the store while you're off riding on the moors or whatever there is in Scotland. But don't worry about me. I'll be fine:( Really.

Yea, I do have the Rolls Royce of bikes. I can't get my sister to ride when she visits either. We've yet to ride on any moors but we do have those.

Maybe we could get one of those sidecars and you could just sit in that? How about one like this?

It's a rough day today for me. Ten years ago today I lost my husband of 37 years. One minute he was here; the next minute he was gone.

I'm sorry he's not going to be here to see his first great-granddaughter born in the next couple of weeks. He loved her mama to distraction and he would be over the moon about this new little girl who would have him firmly wrapped and bamboozled.

It has taught me to live every day to the fullest because you never know what the next five minutes are going to bring you.
 
So sorry Jujube. I can only imagine how painful today must be for you. Hopefully memories of happier times with your late husband will ease your sadness.
 
So sorry Jujube, big hug. You have a great attitude and I for one appreciate how you lighten the mood around here from time to time, you've often had me holding my side from some of your comments, I only hope you find some joy and laughter from time to time when you visit this site.

To hubby, may he always RIP

:bighug:
 
Thanks, all. I don't want to give the impression that I'm doom and gloom all the time, just today. I've moved on, found love again, but nothing will ever be what it was before. It can't. That's part of my T.I.H.I.I. theory: This Is How It Is. That was then and this is now.

Life goes on and so must we.

Today was my day to wallow in self-pity. Everyone needs that occasionally, but only occasionally. I'll be back to normal tomorrow.

Thanks, Shali! It was a really good day in spite of how it started. Trying to go for my dessert today but it keeps raining and we gave the rental car back the end of Jan. Want to be truly decadent at Villa Chocolat!!! Ah well....we've got raincoats and bikes.

Hugs to you Jujube! I know anniversarsies are very difficult.

My 6yr-old granddaughter says she wants to own a bakery when she grows up, and that her bakery will have delivery! But I don't suppose you can wait that long. ;)
 
Good grief! It sounds to me like there are people who simply don't have enough to keep them occupied.

I didn't get done working until 6:30 yesterday and came home bushed. Any notion I had about going back to work has been totally chucked in the bin. Working only for this one client is just fine.

It's going to be a lovely day in the neighborhood. The sun is out, no wind and the temp will be in the 50s. I can handle it:)
