Wheres Toto Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 I'm actually having a fairly productive weekend. Friday I did some laundry, cleaned up some old piles of stuff in the living room which involved fixing one of dd's stuffies (new eyes on a cinnasnail), made a thingie to hold my fit watch on my ankle when I use the sit down stepper (need to get back to that), moved stuff around on shelves behind the couch so we can actually reach the things we need access to often (we store supplies back there). Saturday I went to work and fixed some models the kids made, cleaned out my cockroaches tank, then went through registrations, released spaces for people who aren't returning (or at least haven't told me they are, they had three weeks. If that's incorrect hopefully they'll let me know before someone else grabs their space.), and did payroll. Just one more week of classes before I'm off for a week. Lots and lots to do that week but basically on my own schedule that is not tied to anyone else. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan in TN Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Good morning! The girls and I are playing for services this morning so had to leave the house before 7. Probably be home by 1. I could use a bit more Coffee! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrissiK Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 (edited) Good morning!! No COFFEE!!!~D yet. I need to go down and get it. Middle DD and I are at the coast still. Had a great day yesterday. We toured Hearst Castle. DD really loved that 1920's-30's Hollywood Vibe. Had dinner at a yummy restaurant with an ocean view and watched the sun disappear into the Pacific Ocean. We'll go home today after lunch.

Green Bean Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 It’s done! The first two pics are the kids’ bath and the last two are the powder room. That one is getting new rugs and a matching soap dispenser. Our church friend was able to fix the sink for about $50. Yea! 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junie Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Good Afternoon! Happy Sunday! I actually left church service this morning and fell asleep in the car (with the window rolled down). Then I came home, skipped lunch, and slept all afternoon. I *think* it's just being anemic. Dh is grilling hamburgers. If I don't feel better tomorrow, I may go to the doctor. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The girls’ school is having a professional development day, so they have no school. We made it home from the coast yesterday. Morro Bay is so beautiful. Tons of people and we got stuck in traffic for an hour and a half trying to get back from Morro Rock, but other than that, it was a nice weekend.

Susan in TN Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 There's s good chance of it because dd17 wants to go see "the big trees in California" for her happy graduation trip.

Susan in TN Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Good morning! It's The Queen's favorite day! I heard a thing early this morning. It was probably just the rain and wind in the trees or Pup moseying around the living room. I have a few things that need to be done this morning and then we have the usual Monday afternoon and evening activities. Coffee! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan in TN Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Also, we have been thinking about getting another pup and Sir Pups-a-lot's breeder just had a litter of mini doodles that will go home in 8 weeks. The mom is a standard poodle and the dad is a doodle. Dd17 thinks that's an insane idea but when has that ever stopped me? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Bean Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 It went from almost 90 yesterday to barely clearing 50 and misty and rainy today. We call it A Right Scots Day. So of course I had to go shopping. Little Man has his Halloween pumpkin now, but I forgot to buy candy to hand out. My kids don’t go trick or treating, just dress up and hand out treats. We are weird. My hearing appointment went well, though my hearing volume needed upping from 3 yrs ago. Got the firmware updated in both aids. They were about 5 updates behind! Now I need my real glasses to get here and I’ll be all set for a bit. DS25 really needs prayers for an internship. He’s running out of time to find one. He and fiancee are deciding whether to wait on the wedding or not based on him getting one. I do not understand this! He’s smart, has near perfect grades, and nice. We all keep telling ourselves and each other God has a plan and a path. He just has to do his part as best he can and wait for God’s Path to come to light, but it is so hard, as I know we can all relate to. Changing the subject so I stop obsessing over the problem above: DD made Quiver’s cinnamon rolls and I made a cherry blueberry crisp today. UK custard is happening over the crisp for breakfast tomorrow. So what’s everyone doing? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan in TN Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 Somehow this morning we were inexplicably out of toilet paper. In every. single. bathroom. (Which is 3.) Not sure how it happened but I'm pretty sure someone came into the house and took off with it. Fortunately they left a couple boxes of tissues. Anywhoo. I stopped by Publix to buy some and also got a couple bogo bags of candy and bogo fresh raspberries. "You can never have too many raspberries" is my policy. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing else going on except to put out Georgie the Friendly Ghost and a few other decorations for the trick-or-treaters tonight.

KrissiK Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 Good Morning!!! COFFEE!!~D Tuesday!! Happy Reformation Day!! Is that a Playmobil Martin Luther, Susan!! School and work. I meet with a couple of families today. Girls have soccer practice this afternoon. They want to go trick-or-treating tonight. We usually go work at our church’s Fall Family Fun Night, but I am so beat that I just couldn’t. So, we are staying home. And having taco soup and watching that old Halloween Classic, “Arsenic and Old Lace”. I love Carey Grant. We usually have no trick-or-treaters on our side of the subdivision, but i have candy just in case. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Bean Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 (edited) Morning! I didn’t know about Reformation Day. Love the Playmobile, Susan! I have a box o’ books coming today! I need to clean out the defrosted chest freezer and bring it back inside. It lives in a corner of my living room. DS18 and DD have an orthodontist appointment at 11. I need to buy candy after. I think Little Man will paint his pumpkin. We aren’t good carvers here. Chicken fajitas for dinner!

Susan in TN Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 So cute! Yes, that's a playmobile, on a giant creepy spider - because it's Free Candy for Costumes Day! I did the rowing class which was pretty good and then put Georgie the Friendly Ghost on the Japanese maple. The girls are going trick-or-treating with a couple of friends tonight but I am not going anywhere. Imma stay here and pass out candy. Maybe I can get ds18 and dd20 to play some celtic fiddle duets with me. Oh, I also dropped off my diy colon cancer screening test at UPS, so that's all done with. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Bean Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 (edited) Just chilling. adding: trick or treating went fast.

Susan in TN Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Good morning! Happy All Saint's Day! The girls had fun trick-or-treating with some of their scout friends. They said sometimes instead of saying "trick or treat!" they would sing a Christmas carol. We got all of 7 kids here and have a Very Large Bowl of leftover candy. It's 31* outside. Pretty cold for Nov. 1 around here. But the sun is shining, so that's nice. I have to go in for a scan this afternoon and I think I'll go to Aldi right before that. My arm and core muscles are a bit sore from the rowing class yesterday but not too bad. Coffee! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
