Busy Friday
I’ve had a full, busy day and got a lot done around the house. It’s coming up to 8 pm and I’m finally getting around to working on my knitting this evening while we watch reruns of Dr. Pol. Brad’s trip to Oak Ridge went well and he was back early in the afternoon. He’s…
What A Difference A Day Makes
OK, then! Let’s get this show on the road and pick up where I left off, except I’m no longer feeling like crud and no longer bored. Reset! First of all, I’m not the only one in the house battling the crud. I’m a lot better but I had to go in and pick up…
Not Much Going On
The snow is gone, it’s still above freezing but will dip down below 30° tonight. I’ve spent the day in the recliner with a case of the sniffles and a bit of a cough from sinus drainage. Typical winter stuff in our area when the weather waffles back and forth this time of year. Glad…
Snow, At Last
I stayed home this morning but Brad went on to the chiropractor and picked up the mail and lunch for the two of us. My herb and spice order from Simply Organic arrived. Does this look like $60 worth of herbs and spices to you? Prices are becoming ridiculous but at least these are good…
Winter Storm
It’s 42° and raining this morning. The temps will remain in the 40’s most of the day and begin to drop into the mid 30’s later this afternoon, staying above freezing as the snow moves in. Our weather guy says not to let the above freezing temps lull us and to stay home if possible…
Sunshine And Frost
The sun is over the tops of the trees, the frost is sparkling on the grass. It dipped into the mid 20’s during the night and is up to 28° at 8:30 am. We are back to more seasonable January weather with a chance of light rain in the morning and possible rain/snow mix later…
Roast Beef For Sunday
I ordered a pot roast with my grocery order yesterday and put it in the crock pot with new potatoes, carrots, red onion, a cup of water and a cup of red wine after seasoning it with freshly ground sea salt and freshly ground peppercorn blend. I set it on low at 10 pm and…
In The Groove
I have hit my happy place with spinning, managing to spin a little bit every day this week. Last night I sat down and in less than an hour I spun half an ounce of combed top pretty much with no effort at all. I’m in the groove! I remember this feeling from 2020 when…
Wrong Day!
I’ve been pretty busy lately, getting a lot done around the house and making progress with my knitting and spinning, and somehow I lost track of what day of the week it is. I woke up thinking it was Saturday for some reason. Later, while we were having breakfast it came to me why. Our…
Hello, Sunshine!
On those mornings that I don’t wake up before sunrise it’s nice to open the blinds to see the sun shining brightly. I was on my feet quite a bit yesterday and busy all day so I slept like the proverbial log last night. The mattress is very comfortable, but when I sleep in the…
