What's on your agenda for today?

Ameriscot, I live vicariously through your vacation posts because I'm NOT a good traveler and don't fly! Now I'm going to have to wait almost a whole year before I get to "travel" with you again? Drat.
 

Work... then off to the Chiropractor. Once I'm home I have to make dinner. Something I forgot about this morning, sigh!:oops:
I've been watching Jericho on Netflix. Anyone see that one?
Really must get off my duff and get some projects going. Bored silly. Stagnating silly actually. This is not me!

Very cold out the morning. It's in the teens. Brrr....but I'll take that over 3 feet of snow any day.
Yall have a good day!

LOL. No, you can read about my trip to Michigan to see my family in August then to New England.

Will have some local trips around Scotland in between and maybe one to London.
 

We are in the midst of a big snow storm so will be staying warm inside today.

I am reading a good book, Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn, that will take up some of my time
and I'm knitting mittens.

I am hoping the weather will be better tomorrow.
 
Raven - I read Gone Girl when it first came out and I really enjoyed it. People seem to either like it or leave it. I haven't seen the movie version yet but probably will. It's snowing here too but not as heavily as they predicted. Right now I'm reading The Lost Wife by Alyson Richman, great so far!
 
Not long home from work after an 11 hour day.

Traffic on the motorway although busy wasn't quite as bad as usual so I managed to get home quite quickly :)

Just got some Venison and pheasant , carrots and broccoli roasting in the oven for dinner, should be ready in about 30 minutes. I'm starving..:D

Hope all of you who have snow managed to get where you were going without incident.

Kath, I am having a hard time putting Gone Girl down. I think sometimes books are better
than the movies.
I will look for The Lost Wife next time I'm at the book store.
It's still cold, windy and snowing here.
 
Know what, Raven, I just noticed that the title of the book I'm now reading could actually be a substitute for the Gone Girl title - it sounds like they could almost be the same book and same story! Am I on some kind of trend line or what? LOL Actually, The Lost Wife isn't at all like Gone Girl. Like you, once I began Gone Girl I couldn't put it down!
The weather is pretty much like yours but it stopped snowing about midday - supposed to get more snow either tomorrow or the next day. Stay warm!
 
Day off today and it's lashing down with high winds, so I'm pleased I didn't have to drive to work in it this morning.:D

Gonna be clearing out kitchen cupboard shortly..something I've been meaning to do for a couple of weeks.

Hope all of you with snow and storms are OK today..
 
I tried and tried to like Gone Girl. A friend told me to just keep on with it and that it would get positively riveting about halfway through. I hated it and just couldn't make it to the halfway point!

QS, I've had days like that!

Today is going to be a long, long day working for a neighbor who has a chronic illness so can't clean her own house. Her husband does what he can but works. He only gets the surface stuff. They had a cleaning service for a while, but the service always sent different people who didn't do a very good job and cost a king's ransom. She's a talker and lonely...here's hoping that I can listen and work without breaking stride!
 
Just finished the Kitchen cupboards not such a big job as I thought it was going to be.

georgia you sound like you do a thorough job in everyone's homes, wish you lived closer to London.. :D
 
Holly, I use my turbocharged magic wand...now if I also had a turbocharged broom, I could just zip on over...

I cleaned my upper kitchen cabinets Sunday; maybe this weekend I'll get to the lower ones and the drawers. Or not. Hate to rush into anything:)
 
Tomorrow early we take our friends to the airport as they will spend a few days in Bangkok. Then I'll start packing and getting things together to put in storage for next year. We leave Sat. morning for an overnight in Bangkok.
 
Nix to the Ann Arbor trip. Too many people live below the bridge...

When you get home, Ameriscot, spring should be just around the corner. And if you're there by Feb 2, you can have a word with the groundhog.
 
Back from my trip and a great one it was, I thank you to all for the great send of and well wishes. I had the best time, I'm still exhausted, but, so glad I made the trip it was so worth the effort. The expression on my friends face at every new turn when she found out about each and every new group of people that made the trip for the part was priceless, she shed many a tear over the weekend. My friend is well loved and I am honored to know that we are as close to the point of calling each other little and big sis.

Anywho, I'm catching up on what mayhem you all have been up to around here. Good to read you all again.:)
 
I'm glad your trip was so enjoyable, April! A current theme that seemed to persist in the messages while you were gone was SNOW! I admit to being one of the weather whiners but after getting snow about ever other day, my patience is dwindling.

Ameriscot - I hope your return trip goes smoothly and that the weather isn't too lousy upon your arrival home!

Holly - There's nothing like a good old closet cleaning to get a big sense of accomplishment. Sometimes, when I'm feeling sort of blah, I'll clean a closet or some drawers and that usually helps cheer me up.
 
Thank you Holly and Kath. :)

I was all set to do a load of laundry myself and then an overwhelming feeling of lethargy took over and I just can't seem to work up the energy, maybe tomorrow or the day after that after that day. :D. I for sure have to hit the market tomorrow though. Heading off for a bit of a nap now.

Have fun kiddies. It's been fun catching up.

I love Ann Arbor! We can walk from brother's house to downtown and all the brewpubs and sit outside tasting craft beers. Great restaurants as well.

I don't think we have groundhogs but we see tons of flowers long before the snow melts in Michigan.
 
Thanks, Kath. Glad you had a nice trip April.

I've been packing today. Arrgghh!! Too much stuff! Next year I'm bringing less clothes and buying less stuff here. But how can I resist all the bargains??!!
