Good morning all~~
Sara - your mention of knitting at the hair salon has me looking around online to find a good old-fashioned hair salon near me.... I'm weary of going to the Aveda beauty school. Prices are super cheap, but you get what you pay for, and the talent is hit or mostly miss.
I am hoping that the sun comes out today. Too much rain lately.

Good evening,
It was warm and sunny and while I am not a sun bunny- I appreciated the warmth after weeks of rain.
Lana it may be worth it to find someone who charges a little more than the beauty school - ask if they wash your hair? Some people charge less if they dont wash hair (wash it before you go). Also dont wait months to go each time as you will lose the "haircut" lines. If you didnt like it that is another story. Consistency is nice.
Very few places open because of Easter which I have no problems with except it is one of my days off.... So I ended up at a Dollar Tree ($1.25) and I got gift boxes and bags for my special pal at church so I am not winging it all the time.
Slept too much today so we shall see if I sleep tonight.
Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.1 -
Good morning ☀️
Sara - thank you so very much for the excellent advice - I wouldn't have thought of those things on my own.
Waves to all who stop by today 👋🏻🌴

Good evening!
Had another financial setback yesterday. I am trying to take it all in stride. Some things you can control...others not to so much. All I can do is keep moving forward until some thing shoves me back. Hoping that doesn't happen.
Went through a bunch of papers today....I hate mail. It piles up and piles up until you have to either file, shred or toss. But I did get rid of some stuff in the pile. And I found some stuff I need to keep an eye on....lab work scripts that need to be done later this month.
Hope the rest of the night is a pleasant one for all! Till tomorrow....1 -
Good evening,
Missy glad you could get through and post. Hope you are doing well.
Lana -this is the wealth of info I get from knitting at my hairdressers. Most people dont stick around beyond their haircut - I know I didnt.
Long day but only 4 more days until 3 weeks of supervisor freedom.
Crochetluvr - glad you found your important paperwork. I do get piles of mail sometimes when I dont want to deal with things.
Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there2 -
Wow, Sara..... Are you saying that beginning next week, Ms. Monster will not be in the office for 3 whole weeks? What joyous news!!
Crochetluvr - I hear you on the piles of mail....
Missy!!! - glad that you were able to post! Miss you 🌸
I am dragging today, and I am stuck at home waiting for the dishwasher install guy to come. They said sometime between 8AM and 8PM. Good grief.

Good evening,
Very sad news I had the work calendar wrong I have to wait an extra week for Dragon to go on her "bucket list" vacation. One day at a time....
Dont you just love how you have to wait all day for something that takes them 20 minutes and they act like you are wasting their time? Gosh I hope they are good looking at least.
So sugared out - feels like day after Halloween.
I got 6k today, so that is a nice something of a balance (not quite but better than no steps)
Wishing all a good day. Stay safe and sane out there.2 -
*** April 12 ***
Well, here we are at the middle of the work week.....
Sara - even if you have to wait another week, it will be a blissful 3 weeks when it comes.
The same surly-serious dude came to install the dishwasher. The dishwasher itself is gorgeous, but It looks ridiculous in its place: it sticks out from the counter and cabinets, an it is tilting backwards a bit.
Dude says he did the best he could, but blamed how the wiring is in back.
I figure someday I'll have my plumber look at it and see what he'd charge to pull it out, re-assess the situation and try to put it in better.
As for today, I have to get to the airport. I'm going up north for a week to work on that *kitten* apartment.....
See y'all tomorrow 🌴

Good evening,
Weather nice, wind not - pollen all over the place.
If I didnt have a hair apt on Saturday I would be cutting my own hair- I will be asking for something with less bangs.
Lana - you get those airport steps in. I got my 5k in today. So you just keep on stepping and get that "kitten" place cleaned up - one bag/box at a time.
I am grumpy and so I am keeping to myself. Neighbors 4 year old had his bubble machine out and I would have played with him except I needed a nap more. Maybe next time!!
Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.2 -
Good morning all~~
Sara - sorry about the feeling grumpy. I understand.
Good for you that you have a haircut appointment on Saturday - I hope it makes you very happy 💖
Time to get going... I am visiting a friend for the next couple of days, and I may not be posting, or posting only from my phone...

Good evening,
Almost Friday -long week, so nice to see the end of the work week.
Taking my water pill again and "gee" the scale is going down. Sometimes I do not connect the dots.
Lana have a good time with your friend.

Good morning all~~
Just getting us started. Wishing all a nice day before the weekend!

no scale here1 -
Good evening,
AAAHHH the feeling of no alarm clock for 2 days.
Closed my eyes after the first alarm went off after work, knew if I did not get up I would be asleep again - I only have to close my eyes. Why I cant do that at 2am? Shaking my head.
If I play my cards right this weekend, I will have leftovers in the freezer again for meals.
Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.

Happy Saturday All!
Tell ya allergy season has been the worst in years. Actually having to take my allergy pill twice a day instead of as needed. Moms surgery is this Friday. First class went great. Got an A!! New job is going great as well. So much more peaceful and less stressful. Coworkers are great.
Weather is gorgeous out. Started spring cleaning. Have so many goals just need more time in the day. Lol 😂
Hope everyone has a great weekend!
~ Missy1 -
Good evening,
Missy congratulations on the A!! Hope your mother's surgery goes well. Nice that your workplace is less stressful. You working on spring cleaning is inspirational.
My project today was to go through my sock drawer and toss any pair where there was a hole in one sock. Quite a few hit the garbage bin. I did order a couple to replace them, but still more out than bought.
Second project this weekend is to make meals and freeze them. Pepperoni pizza is in freezer and tomorrow hope to make more meals.
Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.

I love Sundays 💖
Missy - So happy for you with that A!! Congratulations 🎉
Sending good vibes for your mother's surgery on Friday 💫✨💫
Sara - you are reminding me that I need to go sock shopping. I'm tall, so I have really big feet--must shop in person.... I like a nice cotton sock in bright colors 😊
Your pepperoni pizza sounds yummy~
I have changed my plans, and I am going back to NC tomorrow - 3 days early. I can't take the noise and mess of the hallway renovations. I'll return once it is finished.
I have not been eating well on this trip; my lower digestive tract told me so yesterday, hence the lower number on the scale. I will drink plenty of water to get rehydrated.

Good evening,
I have told Church no more prayer shawls for awhile (too depressing) - I have up to 6 different craft projects I could do. Luckily I have variety.
Will try and get to sleep at a better time -- this computer thing until Midnight is not good.
Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.2 -
Good morning all~~
Sara - what is your next craft project? (Cabana Boys are wondering if they can help 🌴)
Time to hop into the shower and get ready to ✈️
Wishing everyone a very good Monday 💫

Morning y'all - its day 1 for the 100th time. Ugh...
But that's ok. I have a support system at work. I've already made a few life style changes over the past few weeks as far as cutting back on alcohol & didn't even realize it.
I've got my lunch & snacks packed & in the work fridge. Brought enough for a few days so I don't have to worry about packing each day, its already here.
I can do this. I will do this. Just focus on the small number not the overall.2
