Jean in Newcastle Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 I have a dog shivering on my foot. We're having thunder and had about 2 minutes of very hard rain. What we really need is a couple of days of all day steady rain. I wonder if the lightning that came with this set off any fires. . . .

texasmama Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 (edited) I am revisiting my idea of becoming a hermit. I think I've been trying this out lately, and it kind of works for me. I swear the older I get, the less I want to go anywhere. Is this age or stage of life? I think I am tired and need the rest.

Ok, back to work for me; break is over. I was showing dd my template choices and the one I chose. She's proud of me. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renai Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 So much for going to bed. I"m still up. I got up looking for zucchini recipes. We have a lot of zucchini... I'm pretty sure I'm going to bed now. I've saved a few recipes on my pinterest, including one for zucchini crisp dessert. I think I'll do that one tomorrow, along with some zoodles (zucchini noodles) with shrimp. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ikslo Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Good morning, all! Well, it's back to work for me. DS felt better Sunday, so the boys took me out bowling for my birthday (today - woot! :party: ), and I performed miserably, but hey, it was DS's idea and a nice thought, so I laughed through my gutter balls and cheered for DS on the turns when HE didn't end up in the gutter, and we both told DH we let him win. LOL Of course, this was after I spend the whole morning cleaning for a visit from DH's dad and stepmom. Would have been nice if he had told me sooner, so I could have spent Sat cleaning the downstairs instead of DS's bedroom. Or if DH had gotten up early Sun to clean instead - his folks and all. Sigh. Also tried to go sandal shopping with the gift card they gave me, and found NOTHING in my size or style. How is that even possible to go shoe shopping and come home with nothing? I suck at shopping. Huge thunderstorm last night. Woke me up three times. But the world looks and smells so fresh today. :thumbup1: Great job on pulling through for your class, Renai! I tried a Jillian Michaels video once. Once. She kicked my butt and I pulled a muscle. I love bacon. DS and DH have both cried over the lack of more bacon. I think DS has OD'd on bacon, though. He was eating it like every day for months. He said he wasn't in the mood for bacon the other day. But then he ate it anyway when DH made it. Silly boy. #saidbutt! 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She doesn't love people back though because she's too busy kicking their butt. Or perhaps that's the way she shows love. I'm actually about to do Ripped this morning. #Isaidbutttoo ETA: BOOYA!!!!!!

KrissiK Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 So much for going to bed. I"m still up. I got up looking for zucchini recipes. We have a lot of zucchini... . We have no zucchini. I planted 4 seeds this spring. 3 came up, 2 survived and only 1 zucchini was produced between the two of them. So, in the spirit of Kon Mari, in that neither gave me joy in their non-production, they were ripped out and thrown into the green-waste barrel of destruction! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
