What's on your agenda for today?

Son and granddaughter visiting today; lunch, Christmas decorations, and apparently we are going out to buy curtains and poles!
mothers can be useful....
 

Going to phone a friend out of town today, she recently got in touch after a fallout we had and thinks it's time we mend fences.

And then a trip to the mall with a friend today.....but I'll just be tagging along window shopping ;)
 
Yes, mending fences is a good thing.

Monday here in Thailand. Went to the gym at 7am. Breakfast. Going shopping soon and for our daily stop at the coffee bar. No ice cream drinks today. Maybe iced coffee. Mailing postcards today to US, UK and France.
 
Hospital appointment for hubby today to prep for surgery tomorrow. Can't understand why they bring you in 3 times for one surgery.

And then a stock up trip for groceries as I don't drive and he will be laid up. Going to get my exercise fetching and carrying :D

hmmmm....maybe that will get me out of my daily walk.
 
Yesterday I went to Ikea, and put my back out lifting heavy items into the car, it was agonising driving home. At 8pm just as I'd taken heavy PK's and was thinking of heading to bed to get some respite, the phone rang and it was my daughter who lives in Spain saying she'd just got off the plane at Gatwick airport ( which is a 3 hour drive away)...total surprise visit to the Uk for a 2 day seminar which had been sprung on her at the last minute and did I want to jump in the car and meet her half way for dinner b/c it would be the only chance she'd get to visit with me before next spring...and it broke my heart because there's no way I could go ..:(

I explained what had happened, and she was very sympathetic and apologised for being unable to let me know in advance, but due to flight delays she didn't want to call me from Spain and get my hopes up, when she was unsure if she'd get into the Uk before midnight..so it looks like I've missed spending a little bit of time with my daughter before Christmas.

She did say that if she gets any meetings cancelled tomorrow, she will try and get over to see me if only for an hour, but it's unlikely because her seminars are 3 hours drive away...but fingers crossed.

It's my own fault, I should have known better than to lift heavy weights, when I already have a problem back..such a disappointment not to get to see her
 
Quite honestly, Holly; going to IKEA was the first big mistake; but I am sorry you missed your daughter; do hope you feel a lot better soon...chin up..
 
I don't know what an IKEA is but stores around here will load heavy items for you. Of course you still have to unload them when you get home.

Cloudy yesterday so things didn't dry out like I hoped. Maybe I can get the leaves done today.
 
Holly, I do hope your back improves. I have to be careful about lifting anything heavy too
because of osteoporosis in my lower back.
It's hard to remember that I can't do what I always could.

So sorry you couldn't meet your daughter, hope she can come to you if only for a short visit.

Ikea is a Swedish affordable furniture store that is popular all over Europe, and you even have some stores in the USA and Canada but not as many as Europe

I will have two appointments prior to my rc surgery. One is with the Ortho Surgeon and the other is with the hospital for a pre-surgery prep (lab work, mini physical). Guess it's just part of getting a surgery.

Nearly dinnertime in Thailand.

We wandered along a beach, stopped for a latte, swam in our pool. Skyped in-laws in Australia. Hubby has gone for a proper swim doing laps. Then dinner on the beach. Watch DVD. Drink beer. Life is hard.
 
I'm up. Late. Have to be at work in 20 minutes so it's a good thing that the client lives just two blocks away! That's my agenda until around 3. Then off to the post office and home. I have a feeling I'll be very glad to get home this afternoon:)

Y'all behave as best you can...
