Evening all! Hope your day is turning out to be a good one. Mine turned out to be not so productive on the work front as mummy duties took the lead.

The children are snacking on a bowl of fruit while I gorge on a tin of pringles LOL ! But you know how it is once you pop you can't stop. I am about to start dinner. Barbecue chicken drumsticks and Mexican rice with salad........

We watched the first few minutes of it, but I made sure my DVR was set, since the new episodes are coming back on. I did see the rap. It was good!

If you didn't see him interview Brian Williams, you have to go watch it. I was dying!!!

It was! Hope you were able to sit out with your doggies! I actually got some son today, which I am happy about! The weather is supposed to get crappy again here, so DH thinks we'll plant it next week, but he got finished building the boards and putting the fence up today.

I was outside with the doggies - I won't be today though. Brrr! It has cooled off since this morning! It's supposed to get crappy here again too, so we only planted spring/early things - all seeds except the onion plants & they can take the cold. Usually we have them all in by the end of March, except the potatoes & we try to plant them on the 100th day - April 10th! It was way too wet then!! Sounds like you are moving right along with your garden. Fun stuff!

Hey everyone. I had a really enjoyable evening with my family. My parents took us out for dinner for my birthday, then we went to Sweet Frog for dessert. The kids love it there, which I'm not going to lie, I like it too!

Tomorrow is the big 28...can't wait. I'm going to spring clean.

Heading to bed. I'll talk to you all tomorrow! Hope you all sleep well and have a great day tomorrow. God Bless and keep smiling!

Awe so glad you had fun with the family last night. HAPPY 28th BIRTHDAY!!!

Glad you had a good evening, Buddy!!!

The big 28? LOL!!!! Oh to be young again!!!!

Hope you can find something better to do than Spring Clean!!!

Goodnight, Buddy!!!! Happy Early Birthday!!!!!

I agree - you can do better than spring cleaning on your birthday!!! :lol:

Good evening,

This weekend with work, Easter, and a tough day of recovering from the weekend of heavy customer traffic at the store has caught up with me tonight.
I didn't respond to as many posts as I wanted, but I did get caught up.


Good night, everyone.

Hope you had a good nights sleep & you are feeling better today!!!!

Merry Tuesday!

I woke up this morning feeling a little glum. My eldest is back at school today and hubby is back at work. The weather has also turned so it is dismal and raining. But I am already feeling better in spirits. I am so glad I have you all here for company

I have a ton of work to get through so it looks like a day in front of the PC. Fingers crossed my youngest will let me!!!

Ok well I will probably pop in again later. I am sorry if I missed any important news, I couldn't read/reply to all the posts.

Have a pleasant, easy going day everybody!

Good morning, Festive! Thinking of you today. Hope you can get all the work done you need to. (((Hugs)))

Last night was a productive night. I got things cleaned up that didn't get done after the party Sunday night. I met Jim at the garden & we planted 3 types of lettuce, radish, sugar peas, 3 types of carrots, kohlrabi, candy onions, german butterball potatoes & red beets!

My mother-in-law was pickling beets last night, and she gave me a big jar. I love pickled beets and pickled okra!

Happy Birthday Sugar! :yahoo:

Thank you so much, HMG!

 

[snowflake22]

Oh my goodness! I'm so sorry she's in pain again. Sending prayers for her, bless her heart.

Thanks a bunch, Brad! We truly appreciate it

mornings come to early sometimes, it is still dark out...and its raining. I have to pick up mom at my brothers this morning, she has a routine appointment at Dr. at 8:30am. So I have to leave here at 7:30.

So for now I am enjoying a cup of lemon honey tea, watching cake boss and trying to feel better.

Good morning, Star. Hope your mom's appointment goes well. Hope you soon start to feel better.

Good Tuesday morning, my Christmas friends!

I had to do some work on my after-hours business yesterday, but I really needed to be on the lawn mower. My yard looks terrible! Nancy says I should put Jacob on the mower, but I have a specific way I like the lawn cut (45° to the street), and I can't trust him to do it correctly. LOL

I think I mentioned that this year is the 100th anniversary of our county, and each city in the county has a designated week of celebrations at different times during the year. I wanted Christmas, but the centennial committee didn't plan for a Christmas celebration. :sad:

Anyway, our week is the first week in June, and we're hosting passenger train rides from our historic depot, along with other displays, vendors, etc. It should be lot of fun!

We were remodeling city hall in anticipation of all the people, and our contractor just quit to take a full-time just in Atlanta. Now I have to meet with a new contractor at lunch, so no rest for the weary.

I hope y'all have a great day! cheesy

Happy Anniversary to your county!! The train rides sound really nice, Brad!

Good luck with finding a new contractor, friend. Hope the process is a smooth one.

Have a wonderful day!!

Good Morning, Drawing-Near-to-Another-Milestone Friends.

Yep.
We are.
We really are.

Just look:
Days to the Season: 205
Days to Christmas Day: 247

In fact, we are just barely over half a week away from the 1/3 Christmas Day marker.
Add a day to that, and we arrive at the 200-day Season Window.
(Getting mighty close to a rare double-day Milestone event!)


Real nice here yesterday with our high in the low 70's, gentle breezes, no rain and lots of sun.
"Enjoy it while you can" they say.
And they're right. Because today sees rain and cooler temps return.
We have started out at 49 degrees here in central NC.


Have a Terrific Tuesday, All!

Good morning, Crown! Hope you're having a great day!

I gave our grandchildren their Easter Baskets yesterday. You would think I gave them gold! I didn't give them a ton of stuff either! They kept thanking me over and over and over! I kept getting tons of hugs too! They thanked me off and on for nearly an hour then again when they left. I just love the way they appreciate the little things in life! It warms my heart! cheesy

That is sweet that they're so appreciative! Love it!!

Hope you had a good night & wishing you a good day today!!!







Sounds like you had a darn good day. Glad daughter is better & that your youngest found shoes!!!







Happy to hear you are getting the needed rain!!!! Hope you get some more!







Hope you are feeling better today CS!







Awe - I am so sorry to hear that about your Mom! Sounds like she needs to come see the doctor you work for! Maybe he can whip her back into shape. The poor lady!! I'll send up prayers that she heals quickly!







Um - we would like to keep you around a little longer than a couple weeks!

Thank you, Holiday!!

Good Morning, MMC!!!!!! It's going to be another lovely day here with a high in the mid 60's and hardly a cloud in the sky. Not to much on the agenda for today. Just more cleaning to do and then hopefully I'll get to spend some more time out of the porch tonight. I can't stay out there to long though. Deadliest Catch starts back up tonight and they said this is going to be one of the most drama filled seasons yet. So I have to watch it!!! I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!

Have an awesome day, buddy! Enjoy the gorgeous weather!!

xx

Ahhh!!! Summer is coming way too early here. It will be almost 90 degrees this Saturday! The low in the morning will be in the 70's. Triple digits will be here soon. I need a summer home up north! =)

I hope you all have a great day!

That is hot for April! Stay cool, buddy!

 

[snowflake22]

Good Morning, Buddy!!!! Hope you are having a great day at work!!!!

Thanks! It's a great day, weather is nice too!!

Sorry to hear your contractor quit, but I am sure everything will work out great. Good luck with the meeting. Have a great day!
