Something About Nothing............ #14

Ouch, Charade, hope you don’t get sick either. Sending more mummy dust get well thoughts to your DH.

Ah, at 8am this morning they said 3 to 5 inches of snow. By the 10 am weather news, an inch of rain and a tenth of a wintery mix and no snow. Was to end at 6 tonight, ended at 3 this afternoon. And with a full day of sunshine tomorrow, not only will camel enjoy that sunshine, but I will, as will dry up whatever freezes overnight. And have some errands to do tomorrow. We just hunkered down today, and kids want pasta for dinner. Fine with me, as hot meals this time of year are welcome.

It’s December already. And my work texted me last night, I could telework tomorrow. Haha. Online watching tv is what I did today. Don’t care if some worked or some went in the office, with the delayed arrival today that was also part of that text. Done and enjoying these lazy mornings now.

Hope all had a dry Tuesday today.

And wee, little one remarked our travel day is xx days way. Yep. Getting closer and closer. Woot! Or wahoo.

Thanks Lynne. Unfortunately dh passed it on to me. Thankfully my sore, scratchy throat is gone, but now I am coughing and sneezing all the time. Hopefully this will be gone by the end of the week.

Ah, at 8am this morning they said 3 to 5 inches of snow.

Just ice and rain here so far, but we might see a little snow on Friday.

And my work texted me last night, I could telework tomorrow.

Have they already forgotten you retired?

Eventually, I guess, Charade. Just thought it was funny. Hope you are getting better, sending mummy dust well wishes to you too.

And, for those keeping track, nope it’s not whopper Wednesday, it’s that favorite animal guy to remind us of this day of the week. Why hello camel:



Yep, that mid week day, where a working homie or not, get over this hump of a day feeling this Wednesday, then yay, Fabulous Friday feeling day is a day away.

Did my errands in 36 degrees, and full sunshine, as roads were already dry when we left mid morning, and I even didn’t think it felt that cold out. Rocked those sunglasses. But as our days get that ever so shorter until the winter equinox. And it’s almost 5 pm, and it’s already dusk and getting darker. Sigh.

We had a big early lunch, and with DH and little one on a visit to his DB, over 2 hours drive away, I guess we will have a very late dinner. Will call them when they head home to see if they stopped for food or had dinner with my BIL, and older one and I fend for ourselves, or wait and see what all are in the mood for dinner. I’m thinking burgers. Older one went out for iced coffee and a 5 piece row of mini soft pretzels about an hour ago. So neither of us is hungry yet. Those soft pretzels with spicy brown mustard, yum yum. Love it when one of my kids stop by the pretzel place for fresh soft pretzels. Every so often, they hit the spot.

Hope all are doing well and sending mummy dust well wishes to those homies not feeling well. It’s already the first days of December. This year has certainly flown by. But yay, the month we do our cookie and candy, two day baking days.

It's a miserable Thursday morning. This cold is wiping me out. I barely slept last night and spent a good portion of the night coughing.

Tomorrow we are supposed to get snow. They are saying 1-3 inches. I have an appointment for mu car's annual inspection tomorrow. I am going to reschedule that. Even if it's just a little snow I don't want to drive in it. After work today I need to go to Kroger and pick up a few essentials. Why do I always run out of stuff right before it snows?

ugh….

It's not so bad. I think we got about 3 inches. I haven't been outside all day. I've spent the day doing laundry and cross stitching.
A few years ago I made a purchase from a company called Pajamagram. They did a mystery clearance sale where you gave them your size and what item you wanted (pjs, robe, etc.) and they would send you something randomly. I ordered a nightgown and received a plaid, fleece, ankle length gown. It's soft and comfy, but too warm for me to sleep in. It has now become my snow day attire.
We might be getting a little more snow on Monday.

Ah, that white winter stuff, Charade. We were supposed to get snow, but nope an inch of cold feeling rain we had. Today, saw a few flurries, as it did feel cool today, given it was 29 degrees when we did errands mid morning.

Our 7 day forecast has shown no snow or wet in this week. Seems will be 33 the high when we leave, more like 22 or so when we get to the airport, and will pack shorts in my carry on. Yep, 70 the high when we arrive. Ooh, will be nice to be in that 70 degree or high days, though we are ready if a cold front comes through when we are there. We will have warm clothes, as will need them coming and most likely on the way home.

But last week day payday Friday for me. Have enjoyed this week to decompress from moving before the crack of dawn. Though will be doing it for our mid morning flight coming up soon. 20 days until Christmas and we are in single digit countdown now. Squeak. So looking forward to holiday park fun sooner than later and coming home before that Thursday holiday. And, because of that, our probably latest we have done our baking extravaganza days, and at the start of the week rather than end of the week we had done every year before, based on a Friday I took off during the December days before Christmas week. Looking forward to those fun baking days too.

Fabulous Friday to all, and a Most Wonderful December Weekend wish for all too.

And a hehe, with me being so lazy this week, little one said it didn’t feel like a Friday today. Eh, as we get ever that closer to that Santa holiday, the traffic will be more and more. Though had a laugh, as she also said it’s all those old people cars that make it worse on week days. I think she wasn’t taking about me, as my DH has said, I have a lead foot. But having both my kids doing all the driving now, I told them they have to drive my car sometimes rather than theirs. It is nice to be the passenger, as can see lots I never really saw when I drove.

Quiet night and cold night, as 31 degrees and windy. Brr. No reason to go, and made a cup of tea, as I seem to be the only one that feels the house a little cool. Have a D23 event tomorrow morning. Little one is going with me. Holiday fun with a holiday movie for us. So busy lately. Though did pre book my hair salon visit, two days before we leave. Yay, freshly blonde when I travel.

Light on, for those that need it on this very dark already early night.
