Every year for I don't know how long, we have taken a picture of our kids sitting on the sofa on Easter morning in their Easter dress clothes. I can't remember what last years' was, but I think it was something along the lines of pjs, lol. We take our yearly photos of the kids on Easter Sunday, but usually outside. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean in Newcastle Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 Juliet is sniffing up a storm because I helped to train and walk Baxter puppy again. I don’t know how many minutes of weeding I got done because of neighbor interactions. But I did my usual three rows in one spot. Then I started a totally new area of virgin weeding. I didn’t get to the maintenance area because it started to pour and I fled inside. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean in Newcastle Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 I had a snack and took a short nap. Then I went out and finished one more small strip in the new area and did my daily maintenance allotment. Baxter puppy came out for another short training session with me. The trainer works with him but needs me to be a "distraction"/ "extra exciting person" to help for training purposes.

Wheres Toto Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Morning, Happy Saturday! Looks like we are going to have some nice warm sunny weather for the next week. I hope it sticks around this time. I have snowbells and crocuses coming up in my yard and garden. Maybe dd and I will be able to walk in the mornings. My landlord is really really REALLY bad about answering messages and I've been trying to find out about room for expansion. I finally just called the realtor, who it turns out is the same guy who found me the space three years ago. He evidently had my number still in his phone since he knew it was me calling. I didn't realize it was the same person since it has been three years and he's with a different realty company. Anyway, maybe I'll actually get an answer. He seemed to think the situation that would be ideal for us might actually be possible. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrissiK Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 (edited) Good Morning!!! COFFEE!! Saturday!!!! I slept until 8:00. Until the cat jumped on me and demanded loves. Though honestly, I can’t think of a better way to be woken up than by a soft purring kitty. Baby is juicing oranges. the neighbors are getting concrete poured. I get to drive to the Big City to the South this morning and get my Covid vaccine. Woohoo. I am so excited. DH got his yesterday. Apparently he is considered an essential worker because his business has to do with construction and infrastructure, and I am a teacher. I also gotta go to the AFSA.

KrissiK Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 “Because of Winn Dixie” made a cute movie. The casting was great and they stuck pretty close to the book. However, you really can never truly capture the charm of a book in a movie. There’s something about the author’s use of language that just can’t be captured on film..... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheres Toto Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Morning. Exciting to see so many people getting vaccines. I'm eligible but still having trouble getting an appointment. Mainly because of my schedule but I expect it to get easier soon. Another nice sunny day today. I'm ahead on classes and my hardest to plan class is actually skipping this week due to kids on vacation which means I actually only have one more day to plan before that one is done. On today's agenda is laundry and corned beef dinner at my moms. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
