What's on your agenda for today?

You all sound like you have some fun things planned. I'm planning a very quiet weekend, will be making a run to the library and then will settle in for the rest of the day, this damp and continuous rainy weather is wreaking havoc on my joints. It should be a lovely afternoon of listening to books on tape while stretched out in my comfy recliner taking a break now and again for pc postings and such. LOL.

Wishing you all a great day. I should be getting ready for my ride to the library in a little while, but am feeling a whole lot of lazy at the moment, not like I need to really make a mad rush to get the day over with, but, should go before the real storm comes. :eek:nthego:
 
Well, you know what they say about the early bird gets the worm, sure proved true in my case, one of the books I had planned to pick up and showed as being available prior to my going to the library, was no longer on the shelf once I arrived. They were nice enough to even leave the space open where it had been pulled out of. LOL, well at least I was able to get another title the author had available. I'll now have to put the one I was hoping to pick up, on hold for my next visit, but they have at least three weeks to hold on to it. Good thing I had reserved several other books by various authors, so the trip wasn't a waste.

Oh and the sun came out, it is quite lovely outside for the time being. :)
 
Quite an overcast day here although warm with just a little bit of sun. Went to lunch at one of our favourite haunts. Sat outside in the peaceful outdoor area enjoying the peace and quiet and the scenery over the fishing lake, then went shopping for the weekly groceries..looked like locusts had been in and stripped the shelves bare of the Super giant out of town supermarket,,,almost like someone had told the folks we were going to war or sumthin'?? errrm....:saywhat:
 
Today I wrote my eighth letter to the Texas Parole Board. The man that murdered my oldest son wants out of prison. It happened August 12th. 1993, just over 21 years ago. I have had to write a letter every three years, just to keep his murderer in prison for the 25 year plea bargain he asked for. No one asked what my son's family even thought of this deal, much less what we thought would be right. There was no trial.
It has taken me the whole day to write a two page letter, and I still can't believe how exhausted it makes me.
 
Oh, Ina, that has to be so hard to do and to have to do it every three years besides. Glad you're done with it for now.

BYD and I have been in and out and in and out and in, ad infinitum! He's such a sweet dog. Wish I had a place big enough for a dog:(
 
Yes, indeed. I'm up before the chickens and before the crack of dawn.

I'll tidy up around BYD's house, let the dog out, let the dog in, play with the dog and stuff. Silly dog likes to play fetch and bring the ball back to me but won't let loose until I throw another ball. Then he drops the one he has and runs to get the new one.

A little later this morning, I'll trot home to commune with Tucker, the Perfectly Good Cat for a while, then come back here again.

It'll be a quiet day, just resting up for a week with no days off before the weekend.
 
Wear gloves, Jackie!

BYD's people have every channel there is on cable and I could watch just about any movie I want to, but I wish they had Roku so that I could continue my Upstairs/Downstairs marathon! I'm starting to feel like the characters are a part of the family.
 
Gonna fill the last 3 raised beds I made in the garden. I've made 7 so far with enough lumber to make 2 more. The I'm gonna cut the asparagus and weed the asparagus bed to get it ready for adding a couple of inches of horse manure. Hopefully that will be all for today.
 
Ark, when you're done would you mind awfully just sashaying over this way and putting in two or three raised beds for me? I'm wanting to try my hand at veggies in the spring, but our back yard isn't level and the place where I want to plant has a big slope. SIL doesn't do stuff like raised beds, DD doesn't, either, and I have no idea how to proceed. Thinking of just building up the ground a little at a time with garden soil by the sack dug in with existing soil and buying a few of those kits from Home Depot.

It would be so much simpler if you'd just truck on over and do it for me!
 
Really sunny and warm today, Just laid 4 sacks of new wood Bark down on one border side of the lawn..phew heavy work. Sat on the garden swing seat for a while with a long cold iced drink, and the newspaper...don't think there will be too many more really warm days before Autum,n really sets in.

Me too Georgia. .. have been working on a sloping problem for a little while myself. Mine isn't that great, but could be a problem with a heavy rain. So I've been plotting the area out for a while now. .. hope I've got the problem figured out before the end of the year gets here. I want to put in a large vegetable garden come early Spring.
 
Bonnie, we already have a flooding problem in the lower part of the flower garden. Drives me nuts!

BTW, I like your signature: Age is of no importance unless you are a cheese.

You need to add: or a wine!
 
Last night I watched the movie, Ides of March directed by George Clooney who also acted
in it along with Ryan Gosling.
An American political drama and I found it interesting but a bit disturbing at how far politicians will
go to win.
I guess we all know that anyway. :(
