Familia Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Good for your spaghetti arms, Jean (am I supposed to say, Xena?) - they will be stronger and maybe you will motivate me to begin. Mine are spaghetti, too. Really, really limp spaghetti from needing to begin working them! I am here. Was supposed to be there. Got cancelled as I walked to door with my luggage. Disappointed, but took the pup out for a sit on a picnic blanket by a park lake to console myself. That was super weird. Something I would have done with children a decade ago. No...longer than that! Well, I found out it is ok to go out alone and do that kinda stuff. Well, alone with a dog. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today, I'm drowning in book reviews. We need more books for Oldest and I've stumbled onto several that I'm weeding through. I'm checking for age appropriateness, moral value, and of course, where it lines up on our booklist by historical order. 😉 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheres Toto Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 No cookies last night and I slept pretty well. Not as good as I was, but way better than the few days prior. So no cookies. I did have my chocolate filled Nips, which don't seem to have the same effect. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Another Lynn Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 I think dh made the coffee. Getting ready to have some, even though I've been up awhile. Actually since 3-ish, excepting a short nap around 6am. 🙄 This was supposed to be the easy time change, but so far it's kicking my butt. #saidbutt 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan in TN Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Good morning! I've had "Good-bye, Ruby Tuesday" going through my head all morning. Puppy started his usual growl a bit before 6 and since dh wasn't getting up like usual, I got up and took the pup for a walk around the block. He refuses to poop in our yard. It's a regular Tuesday around here. Lessons today and zoom orchestra tonight. Oh, we got a message last night that dd14 does not have the plague, so we are again free to move about the country. Or the county, at least. Lol. Coffee! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan in TN Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 (edited) I can get free access to Ancestry records through my public library through December. I already managed to discover the correct spelling of FIL's father's last name before he came the the U.S., but haven't been able to find any record of him in Germany/Poland/Prussia, even though I have his birth date and town, and father's name.

Jean in Newcastle Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 (edited) Yesterday and today has been an exercise in pivoting. Yesterday I had to empty the defunct chest freezer of rotten meat. Today I had to go charge a dead car battery, which turned out to be unchargeable but under warranty. But the only store that carries that make of battery was across the neighboring big city. But worth it because I got a new battery for free. booyah! #H Edited November 11, 2020 by Jean in Newcastle 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
