Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Tuesday and I am hoping to go back into the office with an email telling me one of my clients paid for their new policy last night. That would be great. I would like that. I was saving them quite a bit of money and they really liked that. So we were switching them from a different company to our company. I sell for Farmers Insurance. I actually love selling for Farmers. It is really nice that I get to sell for this company. They are pretty good about saving people money. A lot of times we are lower than other companies. There are some companies that we have a hard time beating price wise but then we try to build value. We sell a top product and we are in the top 5 in the USA for claims. We have one of the best claims departments out there and they are usually handled quickly.
@ginnaboots - Yes we are not on the lakeshore. We are more in the middle of michigan. Being self employed can definitely be a pain in the butt. My Dad was self employed and My mom is an accountant so she did their taxes.
@cormierannie - I hope you enjoy your time at the hotel. I think it would be great to be in a hotel. I cannot wait until I get to stay in one for my honeymoon.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - That is sad that she made that comment. I hope where ever she is she is getting help for her problem or issues.
@Kurtize - That sounds nice to have coffee off the back patio. I need to get out and walk again
@CSEGUIN2 - I hope you are able to get everything done. Glad you are having a rest day.
@LindieMaeP - Yeah they used a device. My daughter only has 3 small incisions. So she should heal well assuming she does not overdo it.
@NovemberGail - Yes it is aggravating, The feeling went away though. So all is good. We are still having winter here. I do not see anything blooming yet.
@Catwmncat - I did remember to put my pants on. Which is a good thing.
Well it is time to get something to eat this morning. I hope you all have a wonderful day.

Diane: I am not sorry that we did not get any snow. I am hoping that we do not get any.2

@Dianedoessmiles1 - I'm glad you found homes for the kitties! That would have been horrible if she was serious about throwing them in the river. My ex father in law was like that. He was cruel to some puppies their dog had. I used to think he was a nice man, but not after what he did to them. I was traumatized by it at such a young age. Some people have no sense. I am going to order a puzzle today. I'll be sure to have it for us to start when he is out of school. We ended up getting high winds and freezing rain so our meeting was on Zoom last night. Will be a gloomy day today.
@Kurtize - Coffee on the patio sounds so nice! Glad you were able to get a walk in. Yesterday was a very nasty day so no hiking for me. Did some weight training on my vibrating platform instead.
@CSEGUIN2 - We had the same weather here yesterday. I would have skipped my workout also to hang out with my son. He lives 3 hours away and I don't see him as often as I would like. Glad you enjoyed your time with him.
@LindieMaeP - Nice that you were able to get what you needed at Costco and make it home safely. Glad your dentist appt went well. I wouldn't be able to handle a baking soda paste either. Just a dab will do ya! lol No hiking for me yesterday. We had some nasty weather come in. Freezing rain and high winds. Meeting was on Zoom last night. I wash mops for one of the buildings we clean and I will not use my washer because that's just gross to me...lol. Anyway I take them to a nearby laundromat and I was soaked just getting from my truck inside and it was only like 4 feet to the door. The rain was coming down in buckets. No rain today, but no sunshine either.
@NovemberGail - Spring already! That is crazy about how much pollen you guys are getting. I have severe allergies so not looking forward to Spring or Summer, but I am a winter girl! The daffodils are so pretty. We won't see those until the end of March unless we get some warm weather they may make an appearance early. First will be crocuses.
@Catwmncat - Some good eats there. That cake in the bottom looks yummy. I was craving something sweet last night. Wish I could have had the cake, but ended up with plain greek yogurt with some granola. Yes the joys of getting older. I have to take a probiotic or I will have issues with what I eat.
@Tabatha_Cain -I hope you get the sale! Hope you have a great day at work.
Got up this morning after a not so good night of sleep, was making coffee. I grind the beans first, but was so tired this morning caught myself adding the whole beans to the filter....LOL. Glad I realized it because that would have been some gross coffee. lol. Hope that isn't an indication of how my day will go...hahaha!
Hope you all have a wonderful day!

Good afternoon everyone - it's just after noon and I had a bagel ham and cheese and coleslaw for lunch, sorry no picture. I did have the apple custard pie in the picture below - I had 1/2 of it and saved the other half for maybe tomorrow - it cost 8.00 so very expensive - it's and Aussie Guy pie ...I have gotten their chicken and their lamb pies and I of course being a lamb lover enjoy that best. I could not resist when I saw the apple custard since apple pie is my fav BUT if the apple in the pie is apple sauce, pass ... has to be apple chunks. Just as well as most grocery store apple turn overs are apple sauce. Well yes I woke up to a snow storm and Gene did go out in it to see how his car would handle. We were out of coleslaw mix so he went 3 miles away instead of 5 minutes away to get a couple of packages and said there was only one issue driving home, some guy did not stop at the stop sign and slide into half his lane so Gene quickly changed lanes and avoided a disaster. Then after he got home, he got a call into work and he drove. The roads are all slushy now but clear - however, it says still snow / rain mixed so Zoom tonight for meeting. I am looking forward to it. With Gene gone to work I did Volunteer with the friends this morning, it was nice to be able to do that. I also froze some mushrooms and got them out of the freezer without the tray slipping out of the fridge freezer this time and they are now safely in a freezer bag in the freezer for future use. Dinner tonight will be a gouda cheese stuff hamburger - just one will be enough and the coleslaw mix should be settled and ready to use.
@ginnaboots oh no to the coffee beans!!! I have a keurig so use pods and the maxwell house pods are totally compostable so I buy them. I've bought others but some are harder to find some times so maxwell house does it for especially since it's decaf ! 3% cafine is enough for my ole ticker! OH NO On the rain too - I hear you about using a commercial laundromat - I wish people in this building did - they have animals and the things I gotta clean out before I use it, makes me disappointed in their lack of neighbourness. Almost like, it's the landlord's problem but not really he and his wife never use the machines !! I hope you find the right puzzle to do!
@Tabatha_Cain - yes that was the same procedure my sister had, glad your daughter is recovering well. How did today go, did you get the sale ? I need apartment fire insurance as Gene canceled what we had as the price kept going up and he just got fed up and canceled it. I still need to research for here in BC ... not easy to do as they all want you to sit down with them. Or get a membership first.
@NovemberGail such a sweet story about Billie - oh the dafs are always my fav colour. Was that a king daf ?? I can never tell the difference, but my granddaughter can! lol Hope your having a good day and all tec issues done!
@Catwmncat yes I have tried the baking soda in my water bottle - it tastes like baking soda but it is restoring the ph balance in my mouth and taste buds and the tinny tast seems to be gone woohooo another trick was to put a bit ( not a paste ) on your toothbrush or on your tongue and move your tongue around your teeth. I take a sip of the water and then a sip of tea LOL I also picked up Cinic5000 toothpaste which cost me 15. from the dentist office, I've used it before and you only use an amount the size of a pea and it has helped. They were out of vanilla so I got mint. works ok. How is your day going ?? I have a sink full of dishes waiting on me... maybe in an hour or so LOL

@Kurtize,, LOL I think I was a JR in HS. It was gym time, of course back at that time you had to change into your "uniform" a horrible piece of confinement that was UGLY TO BOOT!! A friend started to LAUGH SO HARD!! SCREAMED OUT (OF COURSE!! Why be NICE?) "DIANE HAS ON HER PAJAMA'S!!" She was though laughing to hard, it did backfire on her. Yeah never make fun of someone who everyone likes, who's known to protect people from Bullies. I had woken up so tired, I was of course wasn't thinking, and left on my PJs bottoms. LOL SO yes, I do a run down check. LOL!
@Cseguin2 ,,, Hope TOPS goes well. If not and if you'd like help please do email me. It's fun helping others. So far today we've had 5 inches of snow, will end up maybe with 7"s at the end later tonight. @Ginnaboots and @Linediemaep ,,, Meeting is online for all.
@Lindiemaep ,,, I use a toothpaste for sensitive gums, my teeth do pretty well with it!! AMAZING since they all have root canals and at the last appointment they said they are all not getting blood needed. It's so cool they are "hanging in"!! I hope they do. They can not take them out due to a med I had taken (It was an IV for bones) and I am at risk of the jaw breaking. WOOHOO GF I GOT SNOW TOO!! Only we expected it!
@Novembergail ,, LOL EVERYONE SHOULD OWN A BILLE Dawg at some point!!! Aww you put the HAPPY BACK into her step!!! HI BILLIE GAL!! Please pat her for me! That picture is so pretty and relaxing. I can feel the sun!

@Catwmncat ,,, Awwww Kitty cartoon is so cute!! So cute!!!
@Tabatha_Cain ,, Farmers commercials are usually funny because of the ODD things they've covered, but it also MAKES QUITE the impression. Hope your client called, well became a client/customer!
@Patti241 ,, Looks like you may get that wish!! Or if it does fall it'll not last. This time of this year it lasts less and less.
@Ginnaboots,, did you order a puzzle? Got a picture of it? COOL!! It's so much FUN!!I LOVE the smell of coffee,, but do not like it. Glad you realized the OOPSIE!! It did snow all day, and is now, but will be coming to an end soon. Not sure how much we got yet. Guessing 6 or 7"s.
@Lindiemaep ,,, I am so GLAD I had insurance when I flooded my place!! It covered everything except for my place (5 floors below were damaged ,, one right underneath me was not severe, but still!! PHEW PHEW PHEW!! My place was not hard at all for it to be put back together. Answered the phone doing dishes, planned on going into the bedroom to make SURE there were NO dishes (when I eat in the bedroom when I get up i ALWAYS bring out with me what I take in) so having none, I sat down, and OOOPS FORGOT the water was running!! AND RUN IT DID!! Worse than when I come home with nylons on, and the kitten sees them coming off!! AFTER ALL they DANCE!! LOLOL it's a RACE!!3 -
Good evening,
Today was a bit on the long side. I started off with a meeting to supposedly help fix the emails--which didn't happen and ended the day with another meeting. In between I did some physical work which felt good and I almost got in 10k steps.
More flowers are budding as well as trees. It is all happening so quickly now. Our to do list for outdoor work is starting to fill up and the winter cleaning on one cottage hasn't been done yet. I'll be getting a lot of exercise as the days get warmer.
Tomorrow's word is ADVENTURE. (but don't tell Billie)

WELL I tried the tsp of baking soda in my drinking water - and can taste the baking soda, been drinking it all day but I don't have a tinny taste in my mouth now, a bit dry but drinking tea too. @Dianedoessmiles1 oppps eh ... um .. yea computer in bedroom CAN be distracting - computer in living room CAN be distracting. I have burnt many things and almost started a fire but glad I came out in time. The fire alarm NEVER went off ... very close call indeed. Time to skidaddle !!

Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is going to be a good day. I have an appointment this morning to sell a couple of policies. That will be nice and add to my totals. I need to sell 7.5K this month. I need my bonus. That will be nice if I get it. Today I also work both jobs.
@ginnaboots - That would have been some yuck coffee. Glad you figured it out. I did make a sale yesterday
@LindieMaeP - Sorry they kept raising your rates. I don't think we have raised rates on renters policies in a really long time. I am not sure why they need you to sit with them. We do everything over the phone and through email. So that does not make sense to me when we can do it without ever meeting you.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - I did sell a policy and first thing this morning I have someone else coming in to start his auto and renters policies. He decided to come into the office.
@NovemberGail - I have not seen any buds here yet. We are suppose to get some rain/snow and freezing rain mix this weekend.
Well it is time to get ready for work. I hope you all have a great day.
Tabatha4 -
@LindieMaeP - Those Aussie Guy pies sound delicious! My husband likes Maxwell house coffee too! I can't drink it...for some reason it taste like chicken broth to me...hahahaha. We all have different taste buds for sure. I didn't start drinking coffee until about 15 years ago. The friends would stop at these coffee shops for break out in service and got me hooked....lol. My daughter brought me some bags of coffee from the Cuban Coffee Queen shop from the Florida Keys when she vacationed there last year and it was the best coffee I had ever tasted so now I order a Cubano roast from Amazon that taste the same. It would cost me a $100 for a 5 pound bag from Cuban Coffee Queen so I opt for the one of Amazon for half the price.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - No I haven't ordered a puzzle yet. Looked on a couple sites but so far nothing appealing to me. Do you have any suggestions? Is there a certain site with more selection? I looked briefly this morning, but when I get more time, I will dig deeper. I love doing puzzles. Not sure that I will keep Wyatte's attention for long. We do them together and I am always the last one standing....lol. We are supposed to get 3-6 inches of snow on Friday. I will believe it when I see it. So many times the forecast changes.
@NovemberGail - Way to go on the getting all those steps! Woo hoo! I was laying in bed last night trying to remember the two words you posted yesterday....lol. I got them! I was shocked because usually I don't remember things like that for very long. I will definitely remember Adventure because I love to be outdoors hiking and most time I go off the main trials to explore and it's always an adventure. lol
@Catwmncat - Food looks delicious especially the pot roast. Yummy! Haven't made it in a while. I have venison roast and that might be good to try with all the fixins. Probably add a pork roast to give it some fat.
@Tabatha_Cain -Glad you got the sale! Hope you make your quota for the month and get that bonus!
@macrat12 - Wow that is an awesome step count! Way to go!
Hope everyone has a wonderful Wednesday. Off for a hike. The sun was shining, but it has clouded over so it won't be a long one. Don't like being out in the woods when it gloomy! I don't always need sun, but some brightness makes it less creepy! LOL.3 -
Diane: Yup. No snow just calling for rain this weekend3
-
Good morning everyone, it's a some what dreary day here with some more snow to come but so far what we got nicely melted away. If you wanna add a little bite to your morning breakfast, try salsa instead of ketchup! It will certainly go good with the eggs, no matter how you make them. I made an omlet then cut it up like a pizza. Worked for me, see picture below!
@ginnaboots since I drink decaf and not all places have that at a reasonable price, I opt for a child's hot chocolate .. why? Cause it's not too sweet and not too hot either LOL My son gets folgers vanilla biscotti and while it smells good, not so the tast - right now he's working through a box of Costco coffee pods. I only have 2 coffees a day unless I get a Tim Horton's or MacDonalds the later being the better of the two then I have 2.5 cause I always get a small. The rest of the time it's herbal tea. I got a puzzle once, from Michaels - couldn't do it .. it sat for months .. cause covid hit and folks could not come over and help so I boxed it and will give it away. By the way I chuckled when you said about getting Wyatte off the computer or devices, I am so a computer person, I love to play games on it too but I am selective. Hope you had a nice walk and it was not creepy for you!
@Tabatha_Cain woohoo on the sale, I sure hope you get your bonus as I know it's going to help especially with the wedding fund! How did your day go ?
@Dianedoessmiles1 guess where my feet landed this morning LOLOLOLOL yup I flew on over there and hit that join button faster then you can say whodat!!!
@Catwmncat - oh that pot roast looks so good, I have not had potroast in a while, and infact have not had lamb much in a while - have to fix that but right now the fridge and freezers are too full and need to be thinned out !! Gene's freezer is full of his quiche and breaded this and that and onion rings and such, mine is full of premade meals like chile and bread, veggies, and some fruit ! But I am craving potroast now... how do you cook one ? that's how long it's been since I had a good pot roast!
@NovemberGail oh so sorry about the meetings not taking place on time, that is and can be so annoying ! Hope you had some good Billie time!
Well it's time for me to go get something, oh yea my vitamines!! See ya!!

Good afternoon everyone! It's a mostly cloudy day here today, with the sun peeking out every so often. My daughter says hello to all. Both budgie birds are doing well and say cheep, cheep! I did get my strength training workout in earlier this morning and I really enjoyed it. I did get in a walk on the treadmill in the fitness center here at the hotel a while ago and I feel great! I'm still at the hotel until I hear back from the building management on when I can go back to my apartment. I will be doing some dancing later on. I gave building management my written permission to go into my apartment to get some things I need. They will be going there tomorrow. I'll have what i need either tomorrow afternoon or by Friday at the latest. I have been getting 3 meals a day here at the hotel. I have also gotten some things like toothpaste, toothbrush, shampoo and soap. One of my friends has offered to get some clothes for me to wear while I am at the hotel. I'm doing really well and I am keeping a positive attitude every day. Thank you for all of your support, everyone. I really appreciate it. Have a great day, everyone! Take care and stay safe.2

@Novembergail I hope you and Billie had an adventurous day!
@Tabatha_Cain Congrats on making the sale yesterday. Hope the two policies are written today and get you off to a great start so you can meet your quota and get your bonus this month.
@ginnaboots I've made coffee errors a couple times recently. I put creamer and sweetener in my cup then brewed my "coffee" using a refillable k-cup. Twice recently I have forgotten to put coffee in the k-cup. Nothing like a good hot cup of sweetened water with creamer to perk you up and get ya going!🤣😂 Hope the sun peaked thru for a little bit so you could enjoy your hike.
@LindieMaeP Salsa is so good with eggs. I had it this morning. I sautee spinach and mushrooms in a bit of salsa (instead of butter or oil) then add egg beaters and make a scramble. I add more salsa on top when plating.😋 So good and few calories. This is the recipe I used for the pot roast https://cafedelites.com/slow-cooked-balsamic-pot-roast/ I used Chuck Roast and cooked in the oven, but other cooking methods are also included.3 -
Good going @Tabatha_Cain. What a way to start the week. You and Farmer's are making a great team.
@Catwmncat: Love your collage of food and kitty.
@LindieMaeP: Juevos rancheros -- yum!
@ ginnaboots: There are times when I can't remember the word of the day by afternoon. On that note, sometimes I forget the number on the spinner wheel as soon as I change the page. 😂.
Billie is ready for her dinner. She ran so much today that she came in and took a long, long nap. Her eyes still look tired.
Today I did about two hours of work outside and 40 minutes of work in house. The end of February, we cut down the tall grasses. We filled up the mule about 6 - 8 times. I'm ready to call it a day. Good to hear how all of you are doing. Billie kept us with all our going back and forth--so she enjoyed her adventure.
Tomorrow's word is "grace."

I finally got out for a walk today and checked on one of my fav lil gardens - guess what was peaking through - a mini iris !!! Also found an incomplete Olaf too ! Hope you all enjoyed your day eh !

@All I'll be on briefly since it's a crazy time for OAL's and CL's too! LOL hey I AM NOT BORED!! Plus I am doing volunteer work for the congregation I go to. I WILL SAY WOOHOO Today with Cribbage I FINALLY WON 2 games in which one of them I SKUNKED HER!! WOOHOO!! We were all laughing so hard!!
@Grinnaboots, I get mine on Amazon. I put in 3D puzzles ,, they'll show regular puzzles that are flat, but you'll see others, if you put in Titanic 3D puzzle ,, it'll show at the bottom other 3D ones that are a different type.
Thanks for understanding!!3 -
Wednesday's Eats ~
Fast Breaker... Spinach Mushroom Scramble with Salsa and Avocado Toast.
Dinner... Lemon Parmesan Chicken Gnocchi https://www.delish.com/cooking/recipe-ideas/a41093659 and 1/2 Bagel.
Dessert... Lemon Yogurt with Raspberries, Chocolate Chips and Praline Pecans.@NovemberGail I thought I was the only one who forgets the spinner number right away, at least I know I'm in good company. Hope you and Billie slept well after all your hard work.
@LindieMaeP Your walk produced some cool pictures, especially the iris coming out of the snow... Beautiful!
@Dianedoessmiles1 Way to go winning two games in cribbage!!3 -
Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today I am working both jobs just like last night. I am tired but things are going well. I did end up selling those 2 policies. He came in bright and early in the morning to get things covered. This client was so happy with the change. Well I am excited about my Burger King paycheck next week. It will be 2 days of pay. That is over $100 which will be great for the wedding fund.
@ginnaboots - Hope you got your hike. I agree that some sun makes it less gloomy and creepy.
@LindieMaeP - Adding Salsa actually sounds good. I am hoping I get the bonus as well. I could really use it. Glad your snow has melted away.
@Catwmncat - I did end up selling those 2 policies. So that helped with hitting my mark and getting my bonus. Only $3800 more to sell and I will get my bonus.
@NovemberGail - So far yes. I do love the company. Sometimes my boss not so much. Hope you are getting your work done. Glad Billie is taking good naps after her adventures.
Well it is time to get some food. I hope you all have a wonderful day.

Good morning 🌄 everyone! It's a mostly cloudy day here today. My daughter says hello to all. Both budgie birds are doing well and say cheep, cheep! I did my strength training workout 💪 earlier this morning and I really enjoyed it. I went for a walk a while ago and I feel great! I'll be doing some dancing later on. I'm still at the hotel today. Either later on today or tomorrow I will have some personal things from my apartment. My neighbours are doing well, considering the circumstances in which we are here. I haven't heard yet when I can go back to my apartment. In the meantime I will make the most of my stay at the hotel. Have a great day, everyone! Take care and stay safe.2

Good morning all!
@LindieMaeP -Oh I love the purple iris! Looks like some daffodils coming too! Nothing like that here yet!
@NovemberGail - Yard work is a great workout and I like the sense of accomplishment when it is done.
@Tabatha_Cain - Woo hoo! Way to go on the sales! Yes I did get in a hike although it stayed cloudy. Oh well I go a lot faster when it's cloudy. I tend to stop and take a lot of pictures when the sun is out.
@cormierannie - I must of missed what happened as to why you have been in a hotel, but I hope you get back to your apartment soon. Glad you are being taken care of at the hotel.
@Patti241 - Good morning, have an awesome day!
@macrat12 -Great workouts and outstanding step count.
@Catwmncat - Love the Wednesday Wisdom....lol. I had avocado toast this morning. Well I have it most mornings. Is that a 2 ingredient bagel? I seriously need to make me some. I always want a bagel but I never get them because most of the ones I want are high in calories.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - I checked out Amazon but just for a minute. I will get on later and check it out again. Short on time...have Wyatte for 2 days!
Happy Thursday to all!3 -
@Catwmncat ,, LOLOL LOVE IT "so I can say I am "outstanding"! LOLOL HAHAHAHA!! WOOHOO that I FNALLY WON 2 cribbage games! Yesterday was so good in that the 3 people I played were also in a very good mood. Ohhh and the CHEATER ,, is in LAST PLACE!! LOLOL At the last seasonal play she put up SUCH A HUGE FIT that I called her out we were told "No one can challenge a play if they are not in that game." Because of HER!! BUT THIS TIME they said "If you want to question a player call so and so over and they'll make the decision." That is a GAME CHANGER for her, because if anyone is new, we ask them when they play her to question every thing they think they need to and more! And we help them out with gestures behind the cheater as we walk by. When she played the guy who's next to last she was A GRINNING SO HARD when he sat down, EASY WIN (I WANNA Play him!! LOL I NEED the points!) but he knew to question everything and HE WON!! At one point the person who was supposed to play her would NOT DO SO and forfeited his points (he only needs 1 point so he was fine to do that to be in the tournament) so one of the officials sat in with her. AND WOULDN'T YOU KNOW It she actually had the GALL TO TRY TO CHEAT an official!! of course one of the other ones went over, and the cheater was ARGUING with them both!! LOL sometimes one just shows their true colors. The rest of us where just so GOOD in only looking at each other and raising our eyebrows at each other and yeah with grins.
@Tabatha_Cain ,, CONGRATS on the 2 sales!! WTG!!!! We use a woman who looks for deals for us. My friend has used her for many years. She certainly saved us A LOT of $$$$ almost half ,, and she worked with us on the things I wanted (more coverage in various areas) without hardly any cost, a WIN WIN!! I'm so glad we have her! That's for the car, my friend uses her to insure her place, I stay with State Farms and have for years. Had a flood once, they stuck by me SO WELL!! Not only money wise, but with very sound advice that assured me in the way I needed. AND Their advice also saved me BIG TIME on money out of pocket.
@Patti241,, we are gearing UP for more snow!! LOL SO FUNNY how much we are getting all at once. This should slow down after the storm late tomorrow night and most of Saturday. WELL CATURDAY!
@Cormierannie,, what happened at your place? I AM SO SORRY!! To me hotels are fun for 3 days, but NO MORE than that. I love my place so much.
@Ginaboots,, WOOHOO HAVE SUPER FUN With Wyatt!! I've not had Roman for about 2 plus weeks maybe 3. I am really okay with that. With doing AP this month, my time is even less. Today I woke up feeling so NASTY!! But FINALLY around 2:30 I started to feel better. PHEW!! I am thinking my GD will be asking her mother to help more with Roman. I am thinking ahead also that lOLOL soon it'll be 2 kids not just one. Babies need so much stuff at the house, I was so happy when Roman was getting older and I could get rid of stuff. LOL RIGHT BACK AT IT!! But, awwwww there's nothing like holding and taking care of a very small little one. Awwwwww I may never let him go!!3 -

It's a lovely day out there today, windy but sun is shining. I got to Safeway and back but boy my back and hips are not happy right now maybe too much walking yesterday at Fraser River Park after a long walk I had earlier and did not sleep well either, so I hope to sleep better tonight. Picked up Twinnings Parmegranate and Raspberry tea as well as some PeakFreans Lifestyle Oat and cranberry cookies and some Quaker popcorn cakes with caramel. Got a green pepper for dinner as I am doing a nice beef stirfry - I looked for the noodles i like in them but nope none to be found, no sprouts either. I also checked out the roasts, like 30.00 for a sliver of a roast - not paying that and no pot roast in sight either.. I'll check elsewhere.
The picture of the branches are lilac branches and they have green buds on them, so I'll be watching for the lilacs in due course - the squirrel looks like his coat is changing either that or he's a calico squirrel LOL
@Tabatha_Cain I hope your day goes well and your night shift goes well too. My son used to work at BK... long time ago, but he remembers everything he had to do.
@Kurtize, thanks, but not too sweet, lol I do like my mochas !!
@ginnaboots glad you got a good walk/hike in - enjoy your time with Wyatte.
@Catwmncat thanks for the link I'll find a roast one way or the other and try cooking it. In the meantime, I have a spaghetti squash I will cook on the next rainy day will help get rid of the damp. I tried the chocolate carmel cakes, did you? I don't care for them but I'll eat them anyway just cause I don't want to waste food. I picked up more of the caramel only so I cna top it wiht PB.
Feel like I need a nap but I am not a napper, I'll get up shortly and start fixing dinner. Have a good one all !!

Good Evening Everyone!
It has been crazy since Tuesday.
Tuesday - Went to TOPS and lost 4.25 lbs! We have a place to stay when we go to our PRD(Provincial Recognition Days) and I can afford to go. When I got home Hubby got mad and punched the front door. Went to the clinic, then pharmacy, then x-rays, then bank, lunch, and then shopping. While shopping got the results that he fractured a knuckle. Didn't get home till about 6 pm and was just exhausted.
Wednesday - Sat in emerge from 9 am - about 4:45. While at emerge I did try to get some steps in but mainly studied and tried to keep Hubby calm. He hates being in hospitals. No one knows why the clinic Dr referred him to emerge. They temporarily stabilized it and wrapped it with a tensor bandage and sent us on our way. Now just waiting for the plastic surgeon to contact us. We then went to the liquor store and then home. Went to our friends to hang out and have dinner. She misses us since we don't see eachother as much since the job loss.
Today - Slept all morning except when had to give Hubby his meds. Gotta love it being his good hand. Did a little cleaning, boiled potatoes for potato salad for dinner at my friend's again tomorrow, and watched tv. Still waiting for the call from the fracture clinic. Hoping tomorrow I will be refreshed and ready to get back to my workouts.1 -
@Tabatha_Cain Hallelujah!!! Great job selling those two policies while making the client happy! A happy client is the best resource for new clients. Hopefully he will spread the word and drive some new clients your way. Now that Spring is arriving and the weather will be warming up and BK gets busier you should start getting a few more hours or at least not get sent home as frequently allowing your wedding fund to grow.
@ginnaboots Avocado Toast came to mind from a comment you made the other day. It was not a 2 ingredient bagel, it was Dave's Good Seed Thin. I planned on making 2 ingredient dough rolls the other day to have with pot roast but got behind and didn't get them made. I need to make rolls or bagels soon... they are both so good and much healthier. Hope you had fun with Wyatt today!
@Dianedoessmiles1 If you and I both go outside we can let everyone know we are OUTSTANDING! Lol! Yeah, the cheater lost!! You'd think she would know by now that EVERYONE is on to her cheating ways. I'm surprised they allow her to continue playing year after year. Glad the new guy beat her.
@LindieMaeP I have never seen the Chocolate Caramel Rice Cakes, but I'm not a huge fan of the chocolate ones. My favorites are Caramel for sweet and White Cheddar for savory. Why can't you top the Chocolate Caramel with PB? I will eat things I don't like that much because I hate wasting food as well.
@CSEGUIN2 Congrats on a great loss! Why did your husband punch the front door?

Good evening, all,
This is going to be short and sweet. Did some heavy-duty cleaning at one of the cottages and made tacos for dinner. Despite the hard work, the scale is moving in the wrong direction. I'm not too concerned yet.
The rain will cut down on the pollen for the next few days. It's coming down pretty steady.
Tomorrow's word is LOVE.
