Good morning and Happy Friday to everyone!
My weekend will be a very quiet one as to my girls are in upstate NY visiting their dad for a long weekend, so it's just me and Buttercup. Could be one of the last visits they have with him for a while as they both will start school in the next few weeks. London will start her freshman year of college and Lizzybeth starts middle school.

Tonight will be the first time since I can remember watching the opening ceremonies of the Olympics without my family. When I was a little girl my mum use to make a big dinner and we'd have family over to watch and I kept that torch going when I had my family. However, I still plan to watch and I'll fix Buttercup an extra special dinner - I'm sure she'll enjoy that.

I've been racking up several hours of over time this week which means I've been coming into the office as early as 7:30 am and I'm exhausted. I can't wait til 5 o'clock gets here. I hope everyone has a fantastic Friday and a wonderful weekend!

Hope tonight is still special, LBK! I know change is hard, but the spirit and love you all shared then is still a big part of who you are! I'll be thinking of you as I watch tonight too!
 
Good morning everyone. It is hard to believe it is the 5th of August. But it is exciting really. September and Halloween season are nearly upon us! Christmas season to immediately follow. School starts for us in a little of 2 weeks and then things for really fast.
In today's news... HOT and HUMID. This means, I try to not walk out my front door. Tomorrow we are going to the Cleveland Browns Family Day scrimmage. That will be a lot of fun, and it is Columbus instead of Cleveland which is much closer to where I live.

I know-time is flying ITP! It's band camp season! Hope you enjoy the football-so happy it's back!
 
TGIF, and Happy Milestone Day, Christmas friends!

We had some more rain last night, while were at the BBQ restaurant, so it was a pretty good evening! After supper, Nancy & Elizabeth went to our niece's house to watch Zootopia with our great-nephews, and Jacob was jamming at a buddy's house, so I went home and watched a UFO documentary with Lulu. Great evening, all around! :p

Jacob's band has a gig tonight, so we're going out again!

I hope y'all have a great day! :D

Happy Milestone Day and weekend Bradmac!!
 
Friday morning and only two more days till I am off again... lol. I trust everyone is doing well and ready for your own weekend of travel, excitement or relaxation.

Have a good one CGY! Working jobs that have off weekends is tough-I'm there some weekends as well. Hang in there!

It is funny you mentioned band camps. This is the first year in about 15 years that I have not gone to a least 1 band camp. For several years I went to 2-4 band camps. Lots of fun, but always sooooo hot and humid.
 
Back from visiting the Wally World on a Friday. It honestly looked like a tornado touched down in Back to School. It never ceases to amaze me at peoples carefree attitude when it comes to making a mess. They forget some WAY underpaid soul has to clean up up behind em.

I hear that-I always do my best to keep things straight and to say thank you to folks who man the cash registers!
 
It's always disheartening in Walmart to see all the clothes that have been dropped on the floor, frozen food left on a shelf in electronics, and opened food packages on shelves.

Were these people raised by wolves?!? :rolleyes:

Was in WalMart today and one of the workers showed another worker a giant blue Easter bunny in a basket that he found unopened on top of the beer cases...what in the world?! @NcGunny was right-where do the crazy ideas like that come from?!

I'm teaching in two weeks for two weeks-woodwind tech. 5th year in a row at this school and 8th in a row total! Definitely get the better deal though because we just sit inside and work most of the time rather than having to always be in the sun!
 
Thank you, lovely ❤️
Your laid back plans sound fabulous!
Happy birthday to your mom! Hope she has a beautiful day, enjoy the party!

We are going to finish Stranger Things on Netflix tonight, order pizza and cheese curds, have some Oktoberfest Ale, and wind down from the week.
We plan to grill out this weekend, as the weather is going to be gorgeous!
We may go for a hike, and will probably take a trip down by the river with Harlowe.
Other than that, just catch up on some reading out on the deck =
Sounds like great plans snowflake22, enjoy! We started watching Stranger Things this week, very intriguing and I love all of the 80s references.

Weekend time!
Have a great one Edge! And have fun with Rollins tomorrow. Hope he is doing a lot better already.
 
Wishing everyone a nice Friday evening and a fabulous weekend!

This morning we drove to Quebec City and took Loki for a 2-hour walk along the shore. Poor little thing is pooped now. Even at 10am it was painfully hot and humid, thank goodness we had a breeze haflway through.

Now we're cuddled up on the bed watching the Olympics opening ceremonies with the AC on. Hoping this humidity breaks tomorrow so we can enjoy more time outside.
