Good morning ~
Happy Friday!
It’s going to be cloudy here today with a chance of showers this afternoon. I’m just having my coffee and I’m working on a menu plan and grocery list for next week. My oldest has off today so we’re going to do some shopping together. Other than that I’ll be working on the laundry. We’re going to grill burgers for dinner later tonight. That’s about it. I hope everyone has a nice day and a great weekend ahead!!!
xx

I am off today and heading to London with my dad to visit my cousin and her husband - my cousin shared my bedroom when she was a teenager - good times, her friends were hippies. She's like a big sister.

Haven't seen her since August so it will be good visit.

O'Malley will be on his own until Sunday night, but he's used to me travelling. I just set up an extra litter box and food and water stations so he doesn't need anything while I'm away.

I have to hop in the shower soon and pack.

My dad doesn't have Sirius radio in his car so I have a few CDs for our drive, including a Steve Martin one that should prove entertaining; slipping Tony Bennett Duets, Ella Fitzgerald and some John Lennon in there.

I am not bringing my laptop so I'll check in when I get back unless it's really late, 'cause my dad might want to stop by Casino Rama on the way back.

:ornarment Have a great weekend!
Keep a merry thought in your head :shakeit

Good Morning, Everyone!

Wow. Weekend Eve seems to have cycled around so fast this time.
Where is the year going?

Well, just consider this:
Days to the Season: 180
Days to Christmas Day: 222

Then consider that the 200-Day Christmas Day Milestone will be here three weeks from tomorrow, and it really seems like time is speeding up!
Whew! Let's slow down a bit, relax and enjoy a tall one of ice tea (with a gallon jug of cough-ee for der Bingster, of course).

Steadily, the temperatures get warmer. Today, we are supposed to reach 88 for the high, then the low 90's for tomorrow and Sunday. The chance of rain is low.
Our day is beginning here in central North Carolina at 66 degrees under a brilliantly sunny sky.

Have a Fabulous Friday, Friends!

Good morning and Happy Friday! Both dogs had groomer appointments this am and after, I think DH wants to run and get flowers for the house and possibly do lunch. He works this evening/night shift. Other than that, that's our plans for today/tonight. Since he'll be working and I'll be home with the kids, I'm going to see if they want to do a game night or karaoke here at home for something fun. The weather of course isn't supposed to be great again.

Hope you all have a great day!

Good evening, all! Kids are wanting to do their own thing with each other, so I think I'll tune in to Hallmark to the Christmas movie tonight, until I get sleepy, since I work in the am. Hope you all have a good night!

Hello from Chicago! A chilly rainy evening here, this spring has been unpredictable to say the least. Watching My Merry Mix Up on Hallmark with a small fire going. Cheers!

Happy Weekend Before Memorial Day Weekend MMC! We're rolling along through May. It's a beautiful day here. What a great Saturday. Low 70s and sunshine expected today. This is what May weather is all about. Hope you all enjoy this Saturday and Weekend!

Good Saturday morning! For once I stayed in bed until 7am, a rarity. I’m in the middle of a 3-day weekend and it will be the only half-sunny day. It’s been rare to line-up a few sunny days as of late and the trend continues. Other than grocery shopping and chores, we’ll take in whatever sun there will be later on and then relax. Have a great day everyone!

Good Morning, Preakness Peekers!
If you want to watch the second leg of the triple crown, the Preakness Stakes is this afternoon.

And if you want to watch the count, it's at the starting gate and ready to run!
Days to the Season: 179
Days to Christmas Day: 221

The 200-Day Christmas Day Window?
Well, it's coming up on the far turn and will be here THREE WEEKS FROM TODAY!

It just keeps getting warmer by the day, and we could top 90 by this afternoon.
I just hope the humidity doesn't move in yet!
Our present temperature this AM is 66 degrees.

Have a Sensational Saturday, Everybody!
