What's on your agenda for today?

Annie , shame you can't find a film to go and watch to pass the time away 'till your flight. Hope you have a wonderful trip...and I know you'll keep us regularly updated. :D

I am verrrry sore this morning, had a really hard day yesterday and when I got into the car to come home I really didn't think I'd be able to make it home, my back felt like it was going to break in half. Last night I sat with a hottie until bedtime..and everything hurt, even my brain!!

This morning I'm not quite so sore, but I still wouldn't be able to push a hoover around...and certainly if it wasn't my day off I wouldn't have the strength to go in...

Yesterday we had almost 90 degrees here , and worked for 10 hours without any fans or AC ...HOT , and thoroughly Exhausting !!!!!!!

Anyway hubs wants to go to a Vintage car show today...forecast says rain for later although now at 8am we have beautiful blue skies...so I'm thinking perhaps he should go on his own..LOL
 

Sorry about your back Holly. A shame you won't be up for car show.

75 and sunny in Glasgow today so it will be nice to walk around after checking into hotel.

Forecast for tomorrow in Detroit is low 70s and sun.
 
By now Ameriscot is probably in the air.

Holly, rain later? As in raining at the car show? Um. Yeah. Let The Hubs go alone!

It's raining pitchforks and hammer handles here with a promise of it being an all-day event. Guess I need to hunt up a book. If the overpaid Whether-or-Not people aren't lying again, the sun will be back tomorrow and last all week long.

A former client asked me yesterday to dog sit next weekend. Heck, yes!

Grandson got a J-O-B. He starts next Saturday morning at 9. There will be that first-paycheck feeling that can't be matched of having his own money in his pocket that he earned himself. Well, that is if there's much left after paying for his share of the car insurance and buying gas!

Granddaughter also has a job, and her next paycheck will reflect the first pay period of a real schedule (as opposed to merely a training schedule). She's estimating about $200 before taxes, and to her it's an unimaginable amount of money to have all at the same time. Since she doesn't drive yet, she's just excited about watching her bank balance grow.

Where are you Ralphy? You're missing Shali's purple Doc Martens.
 

Georgia, spending the night in Glasgow hotel. Early flight tomorrow. Sitting outdoors at Cafe in city centre now. Perfect sun 75 and warm breeze!
 
Sang in the chorus of The Gondoliers Fri. and Sat. night (last night). Today we have a matinee at 2:00. Final performance. I could use a vacation!
 
They say it's going to be 100* today so around noon we'll turn on the a/c and stay indoors till evening. Husband is in the recliner with the dogs already and I might try to find a movie we want to watch on TV. Lots of channels but not much on it seems.
 
I'm really enjoying vicarious living as I read about the adventures each of you are experiencing! Have been sitting with legs up and I've tied a bag of frozen beans to the bottom of my right foot. I tied the beans on with leftover red-checked Christmas ribbon so the whole foot looks festive! When I need to walk the dog, I have been walking on grass instead of on the paved walkway - doctor told me that would put less stress on the foot and I think it's working. I've just begun reading "The Interestings which is the book club's next selection - this is a big book, thick as the phone book!
 
I'm with you, Kath. I especially enjoy Americot's travels.

Her trip to Michigan is making me homesick. I want to go home sooo much, but driving up there is out of the question because of both my andmy car's advanced ages and because I don't fly. Won't fly. Had enough of flying to last forfreakingever, TYVM!

I've been up for hours and hours digging in my flower garden and trying to beat the heat.

According to the Whether-or-Not people our rainy weather is gone for the time being, and we can expect sunny days with low humidity and temps only in the mid-80s.

I noticed that nwlady posted. Going to run over and say hello.

Ameriscot...winging her way?

Oh WTG Sunny...hope everything went well and you had a great time...I'm sure you must just want to put your feet up... has any of it been uploaded to youtube, I'd love to see some.. :D
 
Georgia...congrats to your 2 grandkids on their new jobs..fabulous news !!

Yesterday I didn't leave the house even tho' the sun came out later in the afternoon, and hubs decided not to bother either with the Car show...today it's rained even harder...so hard I though it was going to bring the roof in. God knows why we've had so much rain this year...!!

Not gone out anywhere today..hubs at work..me not till Wednesday..did a bit of ironing *ho-Hum*...and a few kitchen chores but that's all..

Kath I'm so sorry to hear you're suffering such pain still ...you're such a trooper...had to laugh at your Christmas ribbon around the frozen veg tho'...:D:D
 
Aw, c'mon applecruncher. I bet I'm a worse singer than you are. In grade school our music class was divided up into robins, bluebirds, finches, whatever other birds and blackbirds. Do I need tell you which "singers" were blackbirds? I didn't have a whole lot of company in that group. I had a one-octave voice, can't carry a tune and couldn't sing to save my life. Still can't. So I don't! I was never in a choir of any kind including at church. When the singing started at church, I just kept my mouth shut.

Sigh. We all have our burdens:( I'll bet you can't top my story!

Sometimes I look at a picture that makes me laugh and this is one that made me LOL this morning! Today is gas-the-car day and also need to take pup to vet as she's having some tummy difficulties. She's not a big vet fan, but she usually forces herself to bear up under the stress. Right now it has started to thunder outside so I take that as a sign that my vet journey will be on the wet side. Have the best day ever!
 
My daughter called early this a.m. and we aren't phone people so seldom get calls. Anyway, she has to have rotor cuff surgery so I guess my husband and I will go down to hang out with her for awhile. She is a writer but said she can type one handed. :) Or she can dictate to me and I'll type for her. I look forward to going to the big city and going for walks on the side walk, and being close to restaurants, museums and thrift stores. She's only about 3 hours away but we have to go over a 4100 ft pass to get there.
 
Don't envy you that pass Linda..but enjoy your time in the city whatever city it is.. ...and good luck to your daughter with her surgery!!

Nothing much on the agenda here today, the weather can't make it's mind up sunny one minute and windy and dull.

Gotta put a tint through my hair today..and make an appointment for the hairdresser soon...but back at the workhouse tomorrow..so I don't really get time!!
 
Omigosh...I was so excited by the cool temp this morning that I threw on my gardening duds and whipped right on out there. It was only 65, about 10 degrees cooler than usual. Ahhhh. It won't last long, but I'm sure enjoying it while it does!
 
I woke up feeling really happy today! Maybe it's because we got a tiny bit of rain in San Diego this morning - or maybe it's because some recent medical tests came back negative - or maybe it's because I ran into an old friend at the supermarket on Saturday - or any number of other reasons - I just feel like Laughing Out Loud! So I will:

:lol1:
Have a Wonderful Day, Everyone!
 
So glad there is a smile in your day, Glinda. Awesome about your tests! I am all smiles today also. Wearing my new purple velvet doc martens to celebrate! Lol. Sooooo stylin. Snicker.
