Good Morning everyone. Hump Day is always a very good inspiration to climb over any hurdle and get to Friday.

Been super busy, can't even get here for the most part to hang out. I have been busy at work and extremely super busy around the house as well, getting the place to just where it needs to be in order to move my grandfather in with us in about 8 weeks. I am replacing and updating everything that I can so that it is user friendly, ADA accessible and feels like home. Just recently I started to move outdoors and started doing things outside as well; like removing retaining walls, flower beds. trees, etc...I have way too many irons in the fire at the moment and even my Mrs. is concerned about that and me. She yelled at me this past weekend because I was working so hard out in the 95 degree heat, I almost passed out from the heat and lack of hydration...I scared her to the point where she almost called 911~ Not good!

I just see things and when I do, I just have to fix it, improve on it or change it out. At times, I take on too many things all at one time and I get a little overwhelmed....It's my fault, it's in my nature, I just can't sit still and wait for that crooked picture to fall of the wall, I have to get up, straighten it out or replace the wall anchor.....

I hoping to get it all under control soon. Things are looking really good, spending some serious dough, but I am getting a lot closer to my finish line....

If you don't take care of yourself even though you're so busy, I'M going to yell at you too. And that won't be pleasant. Look after your health, or you won't be any good to those who depend on you, and then who will do those magnificent improvements and keep making things better? Just watch it a little! Okay, end of lecture!

I know you'll enjoy having your grandfather in your home over the holidays and going forward!

Good Morning, Xmastidings!! It sounds like you are burning the candle at both ends!! I'm sure it all looks great!! Take of yourself though!! It will never get done if you are laid up in the hospital!!

Good morning everyone. It's already Wednesday, Pines Day, and my birthday. MerryCarry, it is also William Powell's birthday, so I'm in excellent company! . TCM is running his films all day, just to let you know.

I hope you all have a great day and I will see you at the Pines!

I didn't know that! Happy Birthday to you AND William Powell! And thanks for the TCM tip!
Would you believe we have two vintage M-G-M lobby posters hanging over my piano? One is William Powell and the other is Myrna Loy. Mr. found 'em at a yard sale before we met. I don't have a photo handy to show you, darn it. Some Christmastime I'm going to buy some garlands to decorate the frames with.

Good Morning MMC !

going to be a scorcher again today, after waiting so long for summer it is finally here. I was going to get some icecream from the truck, but not going to happen today...


Got bread rising on the counter, supper in the slow cooker. Have a meeting at 1pm. This evening going to look at a tent that someone has for sale on Kijiji, if it is good I will be buying it so I can join the family camping this weekend.

Hope you all have a fantastic day !

We froze in our office today too! It's usually cool, but we were all complaining today.



I try not to let SADD creep in on me. Instead of sitting in the house with just lamps on, I turn on the overhead lights. That has helped tremendously!

DD is with my parent's today. DH told us to figure out what we want to do for supper because he will be eating a big lunch & won't be hungry. I hope Mom has supper ready when I get there & we can just eat with her. Summer suppers with my parents include lots of fresh veggies. I hated that growing up, but I really miss it now!

Hope you enjoyed supper at your parents!!! Love them fresh veggies!
I agree - bright lights (and Christmas lights) during short days definitely helps!!!

Good afternoon, Holiday! Hope you're having a great day!

Thank you! I hope you are having a nice Hump Day!

Good afternoon, friends! Hope you're day is going well! I had to be up at 12:30 for an eye doctor appointment and didn't even lay down until 10:30, then was woke up a few times between - I think I slept about an hour. I'm looking forward to a nap tonight!

Hope you all have a great evening!

Hope you got some sleep last night!

 

[Holiday]

Good evening, friends!!
I don't know about you, but I like to shop when I have a lot on my mind.
So I treated myself to some new Autumn pieces. Can't wait to get them!
Have a MERRY night!

Hope no one minds me popping in this thread. Seems like a nice conversation amongst friends. Don't want to be rude and butt in!

Nice to have you hear. I hope you visit often!!!

 

[Holiday]

Good evening.

I was off by a half an hour, I did a 13.5 hour shift today. I walked into a disaster, took most of the day to get it under control, then inventory. Needless to say. I am exhausted and will get caught up tomorrow.

Goodnight, everyone.

Hope you got a good nights sleep & today is a better day! xx

One of the plusses of having a new baby is getting a chance to see all the cute holiday stuff for kids. Just picked out some Halloween PJs for him. Poor kid already has 10 ornaments of his own and he's about to turn 1

Love it! Have a great day DoubleA!

Good morning MMC! The whirlwind week continues. I looked outside my window this morning and it's pouring down rain! I'm just trying to keep my head above water with work this week, but that's okay because I enjoy what I do. Just busy, plain and simple! After this weekend though, things get considerably less busy!! August is always a time of hitting the brakes on summer and starting to get ready for the rhythm of fall...SO can't believe it's almost August and then we'll be in the -ber months!! That happy thought will get me through this week--I think I can, I think I can!

Happy Pines Day!

Stay dry!! Have a good day!!! I think you can...
