Sorry your knees are aching,dale. Our weather says rain will start in the wee hours of morning and there is some chance of all day rain tomorrow.

Good afternoon ladies

Sorry you gals are feeling the weather.

Thank you for breakfast and the quotes, Dale! So glad you got to spend time with the kiddos!

Sounds like a great day, Rat2!

Been busy cleaning and decorating for fall. Picked what I hope to be the last of our cherry tomatoes and we have a few more beefsteak not quite ripe.

Hope your all having a great day!

Yeah well old age and too much weight isn’t helping either

I wondered where you were this morning.

Lol! I got distracted. Dh took kiddo to my mom’s. He still likes spending Sunday’s with them. I went downstairs to make my coffee and got started on the stuff I didn’t have a chance to do yesterday. When I sat down, I realized the morning was long gone and I hadn’t popped in

Uggg I detest Sunday evenings. Made sausage with onions/peppers and microwaved all the “too small to really do much with” potatoes that we had grown. Added some chipotle olive oil and some bbq seasoning. Mmm. So good.

Hope everyone had a lovely day. Off to read. Sweet dreams!

Sorry your Sunday evenings are so depressing I do understand why.

Your potatoes do sound good.

Sweet dreams to you too.

After I fixed breakfast for Ken (I know I shouldn't get that started but I enjoy it), I tucked myself back into bed with the heating pad. I am not sure if it helps but it feels comforting.

It was definitely a lazy day. Because I was not feeling well, Ken wanted a quesadilla from the Box Seat. A little sports bar right up the road. It was hopping with people I guess because of football games. He did not want to split so we each ended up brining half of each of ours home. He admitted we could have split but that is okay. Lunch is in the fridge. That is not a bad thing.

Ken wanted to watch a movie (which is something I rarely do) and he picked out Dirty Grandpa with Robert DeNiro and Zach Efron. Boy did he grow up to be rather hunky.

Anyway, it was so funny and we both laughed all the way through it. It was a good night. He is watching another movie with Sylvester Stallone and I am all tv'd out. Looks like I am going to have to get back into watching it. I used to watch a lot but just have not had time since Dad passed. I would rather listen to music myself but it was sort of nice to watch it with someone.

I can't believe it is time for Monday already. Boy, what a fast weekend. Hope everyone eases into the week and gets Monday over with.

Dale, I hope we both feel better after a good night's rest. I have my fingers crossed and I also just took 2 Benadryl. The poison oak is starting to dry up so maybe it will not wake me up tonight.

Night everyone. Sweet, sweet dreams to all.

Good morning lurkers
Up too early but I did go to bed early.

Didn’t realize that you were still dealing with the poison oak Rat2 , hope it’s all better soon.

 

[Sara Love]

Good morning Dale

Definitely too early

Have a great day!

 

[Rat2chat2]

dealing with the poison oak

It is starting to dry up thank goodness. I thought I was going to have to go see my cousin, the beautician. She says the strong peroxide she uses in hair coloring will clear it up. It was nice just to have it around both ankles though and not itchy all over.

Definitely too early

Yes, but the sooner you get started on your Monday, the sooner your Fri-YAY will be here.

The rain should be gone. They are not calling for it again until the weekend which is just plain wrong. I hope that forecast changes.

Have a better-than-expected day all. Hugs.

Good morning Sara and Rat2
‘Wishing you both a lovely day
I’ve got lots of laundry to do.

 

[Rat2chat2]

I’ve got lots of laundry to do.

Me too! My laundry has increased and not just because of Ken. I've been doing so many things that I change more often. I am NOT complaining.

 

[Rat2chat2]

It is a bittersweet day for me. It has been a year since my father passed. It is sort of hard to believe it has already been a year.

My life has changed so drastically. I feel bad because I am probably the happiest I have ever been in my life. I am sure the bad memories will dwindle as I create good ones which is exactly what I am trying to do.

I find myself slipping into old habits with Ken. Probably should have given myself more time to start taking care of myself. I may need to make a few alterations, me thinks.

But it is really hard to spend a lifetime always taking care of someone else. It is just a part of who I am, I guess. At least I have started doing things I have never done. That is a good thing. I think the rest will fall into place.

Sorry, I don't mean to be melancholy but that is a part of life too. When I post my feelings here, it helps me more than you know. See? I feel better already.

y'all so much.

It definitely doesn’t seem like a year since he passed Rat2! Hopefully your sadness will pass quickly.

I would imagine being with someone again will take quite a bit of adjustment.

I’ve got 5 pounds of ground beef to cook and some chili to make.

Good evening lurkers

‘Sorry to hear kiddo is sick already

Lots of chili! 4 and a half ice cream tubs worth

Wishing you a good nights sleep.

I had a wonderful day. We had to pick up a key at the Harley dealership where I bought the bike. We rode around everywhere and you could not have asked for better weather. That bike has a very good stereo system which made the ride even better. Of course, the comfy seat made the ride enjoyable. I vaped all over town.

Not sure why I am still awake. We went to bed but I just kept laying there so I decided to get up and work on my jigsaw puzzle. I am starting to yawn so I better go quickly.

Happy Tuesday!

 

[Sara Love]

Good morning lurkers

That’s awesome Dale!! You are stocked up for winter!

Glad you are having fun with your new toy, Rat2! Hope you were able to go back to sleep.

Have a great day everyone!

 

[daleron]

Good morning Rat2 and Sara I hope you’re sleeping now Rat2 and that you have a good day Sara.

We eat a lot of chili Sara, that definitely won’t last all winter

 

[Sara Love]

Good evening Dale

I think we still have a bowl of chili from last winter in the freezer

Effects of the full moon past or future in full force today. Yeesh! Glad it’s over.

Making a concoction of bow tie pasta, leftover italian sausage, mushrooms and roasted cherry tomatoes for dinner. Going to add bit of heavy cream and parm cheese to the sauce before I mix it with the pasta. We love it without the sausage, so it should be good.

Hope you had a good day!
