Hello GG
I just found you'all a month ago & it would b sooo
sad to say goodbye now. Sooo TY to our 'sweetie pie Bobbi' for starting our April thread
Ok, church & Easter dinner r tomorrow
but I've acted like a kid the last 2 wks & ate whatever looked yummy
It was worse than Valentines Day, Halloween & Christmas for me w eating sooo much candy. My jeans r tight again
On the Happy side, allll this week its back into the 40*s in Michigan & 50*s this weekend after a crazzzzy winter/spring w snow.
Mary, I've had a Oster blender for yrs & it still works great
I also have a Kitchenaid food processor & big stand-mixer, 2 stick blenders & a slushee machine
Makes cooking easy & safer than my knife sets. TY
for telling us about your smoking oven, I laughed seeing U run to open the windows, it happened to me too.
Bobbi, we used our income tax & did a kitchen remodel, upgrading my 8' kitchen island & side countertops (brown w aqua) & sink, faucet set to sell our home this summer. Doing it now lets us enjoy it prior to being sold hopefully within 4 months of going on the market; we have 20 acres w 16 wooded. When we buy a home, if it needs a kitchen remodel I want to have the 'old rockin-roll' 50's colors for accents: of brown & aqua or pink & brown in my kitchen. I'm in my 50's & was a teenager in the 1970's, but "I really love the time era of the 40's & 50's" w that 'music & clothes & innocence & respect'. I love those black & white musicals & comedies & dramas.
After getting my 15" pink Dell laptop (windows 7) 4 yrs ago we both stopped using our desktop pc. We got the 10" Kindle Fire tablet for Valentines Day & use it as much as the laptop pc, so comfortable to sit on sofa, kitchen table, bed, etc using them instead of @ the desk using our other pc. Amazon has tons of free books & borrow from the library & games to download for the Kindle & I put it in my purse when I grocery shop, checking my recipes @ the store. At Wal-Mart the cashier looks @ store ads on my Kindle to give me matching 'sale prices', from Kroger, WalGreen, etc. My dh wants the small, color 6" Kindle Fire to take w him to read (westerns, Bible, etc) & use the internet, instead of his smart-phone. The Kindle battery goes low after 10 hrs use, so we plug then in every night, like we do our laptop pc. I'm typing this on my Kindle in our car right now on our way to buy celery for stuffing tomorrow. Technology is so handy.
Deelee, it's time for u & dh to have a dinner date & a spa day for yourself. What about another family member giving taking turns w U to give U a week off from caregiving w your mom?? or Alternate weeks w U being on-call w mom??? Your mom wants/needs U to b happy also
Time for your dh to give U some EXTRA tender-loving care
& appreciate your qualities.
Everyone here have a wonderful Easter weekend
