Gorgeous pic Shirls!
I like reading history but usually end up with novels on my "reading days." I'd love to be a professional student, wouldn't much care about grades or more degrees - just being able to study anything that struck my fancy. My idea of paradise!
Busy week and it's raining some more - so ready for spring!
Out the door early today, boss is back from vacation and I have tons of work for him to do!
I can't believe how beautiful the Amarylis turned out this year! It is late, but each flower is huge and beautious. I keep it in a dark place in the basement(don't go in the basement) for a couple of months and then bring it up. Supposed to bloom around Christmas time, but I got it upstairs a bit late and then it seemed to take a long time to 'sprout' some growth. It was worth the wait though.
I think about taking a class or two just to keep on my toes. It is fun being a student and would be more fun when not have to worry about grades(knowing myself tho, I would still probably strive to get a fair grade) or getting another degree.
Our cold stretch begins tomorrow. Thursday will be an arctic blast again. Took advantage of a nice today and cut back the honeysuckle. It needed that done 2 years ago by the looks of all the dead stuff way inside.
Keeping your boss busy is a good way to keep him off your back
Once they start, you can easily measure the days' growth. The stalk itself would grow about 1/2" and towards the end, about an inch daily. These would be great plants for kids to watch grow. Sure took care of the winter dulldrums.
So awesome to have some Spring in your house during the winter!
We're supposed to get up to the mid-50s today - yesterday afternoon was gorgeous. AND it's lighter earlier and is still light when I get home - Spring is on it's way! Hooray!
Yeah, keeping the boss on his toes is a full-time occupation, but I rather enjoy it since I'm bossy. 🙂
Off to work early again today - come on vacation!
So reminds me of The Wonder Dog! (and also your earworm for the day)
Oh shoot Shirls - was I supposed to return your spare broom before the goblin gathering? Or was it before you met with the flying monkeys?
Was so pretty yesterday - no rain and up to about 60. I had to go walk around outside several times and soak up the rays!
Got tons of work to do before getting away - how come EVERYTHING has to be done before I go?
Oh, I want a strawberry-blueberry pie! Can you teleport that over here please?
And remember:
I think you have had my spare broom since the heater went out on your other one. I don't remember which rendevouz that was. I do know on one of the sharp turns I dropped the bottle.
I would be happy to teleport you a slice of pie, but I thought it was broke on your end and DH needed to fix it? Sure would not want a scrambled piece of pie in there. Maybe you could send the broom through if it is operational. Fun to talk in code isn't it?
Took my meds, now what?
Dancing with the mop!!
You crack me up! Is it the kind of mop that has long hair or that spongy square head? If I know my broom, it will want to sweep a long hair mop right off it's handle. It was the butterscotch schnapps that slipped. Was taking a nice long pull on the bottle and then a sharp turn came outta nowhere. Gremlins were out too. You know how it is when you don't have both hands on your broom. I don't think I flew the broom there when you made me sleep on your lawn and then I killed your pe-on-ies. I rode my bike that time. I brought the xtra broom for you when your heater went out. I'm just pretty unanimous on that(shakes head).
If I am going to send you a piece of pie through the teleporter, I may as well put a nice dollop of cool whip on it for ya. Back to my broom....I'd really like that one back. It flies pretty smooth and besides, it has all it's bristles. Makes a big difference in handling on long flights. If the broom and the mop have become an 'item' at your house, perhaps send the mop through the teleporter first because that pie with cool whip is going to make one big mess.
I think I will sleep good tonight
I love the zonked kitty!
And I'll believe you on the broom - I think I had a little too much butterscotch scnapps that night. 🙂
and please, no cool whip - I'm a purist, whipping cream or nothing!
All packed up and ready to go - working half day today and then GONE!
But when I get back I'll tell you all about
Flipping your buttons in Red Square right?
Porch light will be on. Have a high ole time! Don't do anything I wouldn't do.
Thanks for the security squad Shirls! But what do I do with the body of the teeny tiny burglar?
We had a great time - Red Square was a big hit! Sprained my ankle the first day (of course) but put on an ace bandage and off we went!
Got to watch opening day of clam season - it was rainy and windy so we watched from the hotel window. Tons of people out there though.
Continuing my vacation until tomorrow so I'm going back to bed!
Welcome home!! So the sprain.......was that when you lost control?
Opening day of clam season must be a fun one. Would be fun just to set foot on a beach, ha!
The teeny burglar? You could make a teeny box for it and a RIP stone from styrofoam and bring out next halloween.
We had one dilly of an ice storm. Started as rain all day Sunday that eventually became an ice/sleet storm all through the night and then it snowed a good portion of the day today. No body was moving much today. State offices were closed. We have about 2-3" of ice on the ground covered with snow. Not sure how the roads will be tomorrow. Have appt for service on the car in the morning. I tried to call the place today to cancel and they were not open. Supposed to get down to 9* tonight. Crazy winter this year. Was sure fun watching the birds go after the food we put out for them though.
Hope you had a good sleep today and are ready for the world tomorrow:-)
See ya later.
