Monday SBD Chit Chat, 10/26
 

:coffee: and again, :coffee: Monday.

It's still black as midnight out, and there's a sharp bite in the air as well. Hopefully, the sun will bring some warmth with it.

So what's on everyone's agenda for the day? I'm expecting a mountain of the girls' laundry to wade through, and I know I'll be picking up Maggie after school to take her to an orthodontist appointment. I want to start changing out the wardrobes for both the girls, too, since I believe it's finally time.

More coffee, anyone? :coffee2:

Yes Linda, I believe you are right...it is finally time. (is this an intro to a movie? No...just agreeing on clothes :D )

Monday, Monday. I have PT first thing this AM, that should wipe me out for the day :rofl: But, in reality, I need to go grocery shopping and plan the menu. I do love all the soup options with the cooler weather. (OH! Hoppin' John and chili might have to be on the menu!!)

Coffee is ready!

Definitely more coffee since the weather has really changed - only 29ºF here this morning. Michelle called at 9 last night to tell me she was coming to clean at 7:30 this morning so I'm about to scurry around with tidying. Of course I woke up with a cold starting and feel like crawling back into bed.

The darn dogs went on a hunger strike this morning until I added some of that exotic liver birthday cake to their kibble. What's next - fancy sauces and garnishes? Angus came to visit when Lisa dropped off the cake and he may have clued them in on how to look like a doggie princes and give me disgusted looks.

I had planned to go to the Church coffee group this a.m. and may still do that once Michelle gets started. There is also a funeral service at 11 - graveside on this cold day! I have to read the lesson and will certainly bundle up and take along lots of Kleenex.

Somehow I suspect today will just be a day to plough through and bed will feel tremendous by 9 PM. Flu shot and foot care on tap for tomorrow. Can it get any better? ;)

Good morning, Tammy!, and I hope your PT doesn't totally wear you out! I do love soups this time of year, and dug a carton of carrot juice out of the freezer yesterday to thaw for one of my favorite soups. Have a good day!

Dress warmly today, Ruth!

Good morning,

Getting ready to leave for work in office day. Nothing on agenda this evening.

Cottage I agree I need to switch out wardrobes as well that will be on tap this weekend.

Ruth stay warm today

Tywnn hope your PT goes well today.

Have a great day everyone!

Good morning!

The only thing on my agenda is to get through this day since my back is acting up a little bit again probably just tired from hauling the big trays yesterday.I got almost 12 hours of sleep and don't know if I would've woken up except for Kirk texting me at 10 minutes after five. It's a good thing he did! I better finish this cup of coffee and get moving! Have a great day everyone!

Good morning! Just a quick flyby this morning.

Cottage and Pearl, I have pretty much officially swapped everything in my closet. Last week we had so much cool, rainy weather I have needed my sweaters.

Ruth, DH referred to the weather the past few days as "pre-winter". I've managed to keep my mums alive by covering them but Mother Nature is giving us a hint of what happens next. Bundle up today.

Tammy, we had chili Saturday night and last night I made a stew. I've got a new recipe from a friend: chicken tortilla soup. If it s any good I will share.

Debbie, hope your back recovers quickly. Glad you have the day off.

Okay, have to go! Work to do!

Looks like everyone is off and running. I'm just off will run later in the day as I have a wake in Merrick (Long Island) tonight. One of my officer's mom died after a hard fight from cancer. He is only 32 and lives with his parents. Otherwise I'll be tinkering around the house.

Soup seems to be on everyone's menu. I just took out a butternut squash soup from the freezer. I went on a shopping spree, but finally have appropriate clothes for my trip. My closet is pretty boring. I am traveling for work, but looking forward to being alone. I need a mental break

Tammy hope PT doesn't wear you out

Debbie take care of your back

Beth and Pearlrose have a great day at work

Ruth enjoy coming home to a clean house

Linda good luck with the girls' laundry

Enjoy!
