Making a stop in!!! Is it really Friday already? It has been a busy week. I have been reading along, highlighting comments with intentions of posting, and never got to post!
Can admit to you guys I’m struggling a bit at the moment but trying to keep busy and focused x
I can totally relate to your struggle. I have been reading along, and along with just the general extra pressure of this virus on our lives, you have other high stress situations happening as well. Be gentle with yourself. And know that others are thinking of you
...think we all have that type of drawer.....I also have a junk drawer in the kitchen that really is the bain of my life......I clear it out and Tom fills it up......
Yes...I hear you on that one. The hubby has one, and I have one as well. The rule is...NO ONE is allowed to shove anything in MY drawer. I want what I want in my drawer. The item probably has a home...go put it there!
So, no hotdog lunch. As predicted, huge tomato sandwich had by DH, little one had a dry BLT, as did I. Neither of us like mayo, and I think DH could care less whether he had it on his sandwich. So no mayo on the sandwiches.
Love me a tomato sandwich...especially with mayo. I tend to have those one evenings when I am working the second job and everyone else has eaten. There is just something sooo good about them. They are even better with bacon and lettuce and avocado!!!!
My sister and I took dad to a small scenic town about an hour away to a restaurant called the Overlook yesterday. He liked it there when we took him and stepmom a few years ago. So we decided to take him back. It sits up on a hill overlooking the Ohio River. We then went down the road to a old general store and they had old toys that were a blast from the past.
That looks like it was a great day! I am glad that you got to spend some time with your dad. All the time we get to spend with them is precious.
I have decided that for the rest of the day I should not drive, operate machinery, make adult decisions, or do anything else that requires the use of a brain. B asked for red beans & rice and sausage for supper. I cooked everything according to directions, But it ended up very soupy. That's not the worst of it though. I was going to heat up some frozen broccoli in the microwave. I put a dish in the microwave, but forgot to put the broccoli in it. I turned on the microwave and melted the dish to the turntable tray. For some reason dh thought it would be a good idea to put the tray and dish into the sink and pour cold water over them. Of course, the dish shattered into hundreds of pieces. Poor B takes everything so seriously and couldn't understand why we were laughing about it. We cleaned up the shattered dish, but there is still a piece of it fused to the tray. I have already placed an order for a replacement turntable tray for the microwave.
That sounds like something that might happen in our home, and something that I would TOTALLY do!!!! I hope that replacement plate comes soon, and that you don't have another day again like this for a bit
t`s a lesson for sure to consider a childs initials before naming them.....imagine going through life with a nickname caused by your dodgy initials......
I`m sure there are a few out there with initials they wish they could change......
Our DD's initials are KPH....and are still that way even when she changed her name when she got married. The first thing my FIL said was " oh Kilometers Per Hour "
and than name stuck with several family members who still will call her that! She takes in stride, and sometimes rolls her eyes. But no one will forget her initials.
I am sure you are on your countdown for your trip to see your Mom. I hope you have a wonderful visit with her! It is hard to live so far away from them. I love far from my parents. We only see them probably once a year. So I understand how much you can miss them. Have a great visit with her...and have a great party for Tom!!!
So annoyed. News reported at least 2 students at little one’s University tested virus positive, and they were all over the campus and in the buildings. Move into the dorms was this past weekend, and you can’t tell me kids were not together, not wearing masks in the dorms. And little one is to have her one live class starting on Monday, when school officially starts. To say I am worried about that, yeah. Not what I wanted to hear.
I'm sorry to hear that. I'm sure your heart rate rises when you even think about it! I just do not know what to think about our kids returning to school in September. It will be a fluid situation, but many are worried about who the school boards will handle/deal with any outbreaks that happen. Especially when you consider that many kids are bussed to the schools. Sigh
I just want to wish you a Happy Birthday!!!! I hope you have a great day!!!!!
I just looked on the university covid page and there are 10 students positive! Wow, that escalated quickly.
It looks like they're implementing a new policy of reporting cases every Wednesday on the covid page instead of sending out individual emails.
It is just scary. I hope that your area gets it sorted fast! We only have around 12 active cases yet, which is not high for the population, but it is slowly increasing. I hope that once school is started, that the new cases stay down and no big outbreaks happen.
I just wanted to say a belated Happy Anniversary!!!!
Theyupped their game. Comparable animatronics 1/2 to 2/3 less than spirit. Didn’t see this online
VERY cool!!!! I would love to have a haunted house in a garage as part of a neighbour hood tour.
Went back to Universal this am to hit IOA-lots of characters out this am. Walked on most rides except Kong as it had a "slight" delay. Wasn't too bad waiting inside in AC though. Hulk first thing front row is one way to wake up!! And tried the AP VooDoo doughnut-lemon blueberry custard is right amount of tart with sweet doughnut. Met the new "baby" raptor Sienna-she "smiled" for her picture when I asked. Ok I KNOW the thing isn't real, but I still wanted to gush over cute baby raptor LOL. The handler was just so good!! And the Jurassic coaster is really moving along-doing some framework for rockwork(?) maybe? anyway the tracks look like it will be Space Mountain close! Cannot wait for this to finish!
Went to pick up kid for lunch, spending
Sounds like your having a great time in the parks!!!!!
@macraven I want to wish you have a belated Happy Birthday
I hope it was a great day!
I am just about finished for the day. I am heading out early, as the DD and Gd are visiting and Grammie needs her cuddles and squeezes in!!! I have had to get people in to fix our A/C. The unit if froze and now thawing and dripping water from the ceiling
The manager is gone, he took some personal time earlier in the week...but started to feel yucky with some symptoms. Our health authority has now sent him for testing ( which he did this morning ) and now is waiting for his test results. He is required to self quarantine ( and yes here they check up on people for how they are in quarantine ) for 10 days, unless he gets a negative test. So crossing our fingers he did not contract it somewhere. He has not been in contact with any of the other active cases in our area or the province.
Well I should run...get my butt home to spend some time with the GD.
Have a great weekend everyone!!!!!
hope all your birthday wishes come true.
he had been putting off telling me as he knew how upset I`d be......but I can understand his reasons, and in no way does it have to do with the fact his new car should have arrived in the country by then......lol......
It would be lovely if one of them would be able to go, but understandable. They`re good kids. It`s been a good few years since we met Danielle.....she had the foot issue that visit.......and of course we`ve seen Trey a few times......will keep fingers crossed for you.....
