What's on your agenda for today?

A night out on the town...what a great idea! I can't remember the last time I did anything so wild and crazy. And fun.

April and Holly, I hope you both recover from your back problems. I've had them myself from time to time, and it's not one bit fun at all. I've also fractured a whatever-it-is in my neck, and that was even less fun. Weeks in the hospital, months of PT. The most "fun" I've ever had with sheer, unadulterated pain was when I tore a rotator cuff. We won't go into that.

Anyway, I wish April a fun-filled evening and Holly a speedy, if temporary, recovery until the surgery, then a speedy PERMANENT recovery.

Hard day at the "office" and I really just want to give it all up. Let them eat cake or whatever it is they do. Hire a cleaning service. Clean their own houses. Give their kids the responsibility of scouring. Who gives a rat's rear? LOL I've spent the afternoon conniving and calculating and crunching numbers trying to figure out how soon I can quit. If any of you had the smallest idea of how much I don't do numbers, you'd understand about me and number crunching:)

I'd rather go to basket-weaving camp.
 

I am planning on learning a new crochet stitch on Youtube, plus I have recorded a lot of British TV shows so I think sitting on the couch , feet up with the remote in my hand sounds pretty good to me. I hope every has a great day!
 
Catraoine, we're just finishing up our day. If you're Down Under, does that make us Up Over?
 

I hope that poor dog finds a good forever home.

Turned out that as I was driving out of the animal shelter,the foster agency caseworker called me to say the girl`s mom wants the dog back. Then she called me a few minutes later from the shelter asking me to describe him as I guess she was going to get him and take him to the mom. Strange,given that I was told that if I didn`t let her bring him to my house he was going to the pound as mom wasn`t allowed to have him at her house. I`m sure she wasn`t as she lives in a mobile home park and his barking is really bad. He bites as well.
 
April and Holly, hope your back troubles ease. Had backaches before so you have my sympathy.

Ugandan daughter is visiting. She was thrilled with the gifts I got her in Thailand. It's rainy and windy so we'll just hang out today. I'll do my muscle workouts and try to stop snacking like I did last night. Oink
 
That !#$%^&*! cat. 5:30 on a Saturday morning is NOT my idea of wake-up time. One side of my bed is against a wall so how is it that I feel like I got up on the wrong side? Grrrr. Feeling mean and stabby first thing in the morning isn't a good thing, especially on a day off that's supposed to be sunny and almost warm.

Somebody talk me down. Please!
 
Morning all.
georgia.....have another coffee and chill; sun is out , Sky is blue, it is a little breezy, but hey, you can't have everything!
 
Had my coffee. It's daylight now, the sun is out, and I'm still cranky. The only thing there is to do today is dust and vacuum up cat fur. I want to run away from home. Doesn't feel like my home anyway even though I'm the one who paid to have it built. I'm going to spend the day wallowing in self-pity. Poor, pitiful me.
 
Well. That's better. I went out in search of stuff. I've been wanting a backrest thingie for sitting up in bed to read or watch TV. Found one. The Girl Scouts were selling cookies outside of Walmart. We had cookies, but I didn't get any. Not one! My daughter always buys them from the scouts in the neighborhood and had a total of six boxes of different kinds. She got one chocolate-covered peanut butter cookie. One! So I bought two boxes of those because they're our favorite ones, gave one box to her and kept one box for myself. I'm not going to share. Nope. I'm gonna eat every last one all by myself:)

I'm in a much better frame of mind now and prepared to vacuum cat fur.

And BTW, my kitty has already discovered the backrest and has settled in for one of his many daily naps. Figures. It's like having a little kid in the house.
 
Glad you had fun, April and I like the top.

Thanks Jackie, I'm more of a dress gal, but was trying to hang with the crowd and was going more with a tropical vibe, sorta flowy top. I'll save it for a beach cover up in the future though. LOL.

Vivjen, glad you got out too, Ameriscot, it was beyond fun, boy do I have stories about some of the men I ran into, but, I'll save those.

Great photos April..I'm sorry that one doesn't like ones top ...one must endeavour to wear a top that one likes better next time.. ;)

All kidding aside I think you look great nothing worse than a tight fitting top on a voluptuous lady...but then the men may disagree :yougogirl:

I am absolutely shattered, been up since 3am just worked a hard 13 hour day, I won't bore you all again with my tales of my aching back (got the frozen pack behind me again) ......suffice to say it's 7.45pm now and I'm completely and utterly exhausted..I'm gonna try my hardest to stay awake until at least 9pm, but it's gonna be a struggle...I may just fall asleep right here on top of the keyboard zzzzzzzzzzzz *excuse any snoring you might here won't ya* ? :yawning:
 
April, loved your pictures! I used to love to go anywhere that there was music and dancing - a while back I gave a '50's party and everyone had to dress the part - so fun!

Holly, get lots and lots of great sleep!

Got up the morning at 4 a.m. to walk dog, fell on ice, got up. Then got ready to go local lab to get blood draw which I have to do regularly. When I got home the garage door wouldn't open and I think the door opener is busted but not sure so I called a garage door fixit place but they can't come for 3 more days. So now the car is parked outside. Something is always breaking around here. Have a big wall crack, too, which the handyman will repair this week. Temperature actually got up to 37 degrees today!
 
April, you look very pretty in the pictures and the top is fine.....that looks like a fun place..... I haven't been to a dance club in years.

Holly, you are one tough lady to work such long hours with that back of yours..... Hope you get lots of R&R.

Kath, I know how you feel, sometimes everything breaks at the same time around here too.....vacuum, toaster, bathroom light.... it's all falling apart around me.

I've slept most of the day away, reading, resting and eating...... no excitement whatsoever.
 
Thanks everyone for your best wishes..sadly the pain is too bad in my back to let me sleep so here I am again at 3.30am been up since 3..the cold is streaming as well like a running tap, and I think I need putting down like an aged old nag..

Ignore me I'm just feeling sorry for myself..just taken more meds so hopefully they'll kick in soon...my surgery can't come quick enough for me..honestly.
Thank goodness you are all her to listen to my eternal whining.. :D..sorry about that LOL
