112 posts on the old one...time to start fresh.

I am glad that you got back home with no trouble Tina.

Junie, the bottles are all different sizes.

DH is out raking the last of our hay...tomorrow we bale. I will be glad to see it done and the barn filled for Winter.

Hay in the barn is good, Sunny.
I took a nap. Now I am trying to wake up. It's hard to do.

We rented a large round baler from a local farmer....the tractor loader will do all the work thumbup

This afternoon I have to take GG to visit her aunt who is home visiting for a few days from another province. It is bittersweet...it reminds me that she is the only one from the 'sperm donor's' family that even acknowledges her. I dread the day having to explain to her that she has a father, other grandparents, etc...

I will be taking home my grandson for a couple of days as well....DD needs to have the new place finished with the cleaning by Tuesday so the painting can begin.

Good morning. Have fun with your grandson, Sunny. Are you doing the painting?
I will finish unpacking my van today. That is all I can think of yet. I'm sure more will happen.
I hope everyone has a great day.

Good morning. Happy Monday.
That is a lot of painting. I hope you get it all done, Sunny. When I was younger by about 40 years, I loved to help people paint and things. Not so much any more. Too many aches and pains these days.
I need to go out for some business today so I will shop for the things I forgot on Saturday while I am out.
I hope everyone has a great day.

WOW that is a lot of painting ! I wish you all the best. I so hope that the friends do come to help her. I am sure that everyone concerned cannot wait for the week to pass.

Have fun out, Tina....I too cannot do what I used to. It frustrates me that I do not have the ability to work late into the night as I used to. OR that I am not able to go out in the evening & put several hours into caring for my plants & landscaping---Getting older is not for sissys, that is for sure. and oh..I hate to paint...I always have hated it, sad thing is Rod does not like to paint either.

I used to like to paint. But not anymore.
Jonni and I still have to go out and bring in the safe I took out for possible evacuating. It takes two to lift it and then we put it on a dolly to bring in and out. . And it is mostly papers to keep in case of fire. But I bring it out when I can, in case...
I signed up with my propane company today for a substantial savings per gallon for the next year. That's a good thing. Then I went to the grocery store and picked up the tidbits I forgot the other day.
I didn't have what it took to stop for gas after that. So I'm sending Jonni out for that in a bit.

Tomorrow is Ceramics and then I will go out to lunch. WE have a meeting in the evening--but when I am back home, I will be in. See you in the evening tomorrow.

Good morning. I am thinking of the Italian people in their earthquake woes today. It has got to be awful.
I have no major plans today. I might just get some housework out of the way.
I hope everyone has a good day.

Good morning ! breakfast

I have spent the morning separating baby clothes into sizes. Sad thing is I now must send the appropriate sized clothes to my DD as I do not think we will be going there any time soon.

Now it is time to take my MIL cards for her to sign for this months birthdays, etc. also need to get some gas.

Temps back into the 90's here today... rolz

I wish everyone a good day.

OH Tina...such kind words..thank you so very much. Those words made me feel good. shewinks

My youngest DD's best friend has a baby daughter, & it is her hand-me-down baby clothes I was going thru.

They are now all in zip-top bags labeled as to sizes. That will help me send the size appropriate clothes to my oldest much more easily.

Yes, that will be a big help to your daughter. You can't physically hug and cuddle your grands on a daily basis. But you can share your love by sorting and sending those clothes along. A long distance hug.

That is just the way I look at it. And if you feel that way too, you should share it with Valarie. Let her know some loving hugs are on the way. Are you tucking something in for Henry?
Sweet dreams all. I am going to go to bed earlyish tonight.

well, it is appreciated.

Henry: I very recently sent him a 4-pc gardening tool set. he was in heaven. Daddy even made him places to hang them in the garage like Daddy does for his. shewinks

But yes, in with the clothes, I am sending him a Jell-O Creations Dessert Kit. When Mommy makes it with (or for) him it will be Oreo Dirt Cups. There will be enough for him to share with his cousins if he wishes. I may find something else because you know Mom will not get to making that right that day.

I need to go to bed soon.

G'nite sweet dreams everyone.

Happy Birthday to her, Tina.

A "wrong number" woke me this morning. I have no idea, but I am up & ready to go. I had to talk myself into staying inside even.

Going soon to see my MIL & then to the grocery.

You were very much missed, Sunny. I will pass your message on to Jonni. Are the kids rooms painted now?
I am sorry you got so tired. Sweet dreams.
And I am tired myself. Sweet dreams all.

Yes Tina, the two kids rooms are completely finished and I also done some repairs in the rest of the house. I also fully painted all the ceilings through the whole house. I figure that I done my share...now DD can do hers. thumbup

Today I need to do laundry, clean and mop here. It has been raining non stop for days.

Good morning. That's a lot of painting that you did, Sunny. I can feel my muscles seizing up just thinking about it.
My plans for the day include shopping for the weekend ahead. I may get some mopping done myself.
I hope everyone has a great day.

Mopping finished...and here I sit waiting for the dryer to shut off. One more load to go in then I am all caught up.

I am hoping to get a few dry hours tomorrow so I can get my lawn cut as well.

Good job, Sunny. I am still trying to talk myself into going out.
