Happy Saturday, Flowers! :cp: The sun is shining brightly and it is a beautiful day; there's a bit more wind than I would like but nothing compared to last week. Maybe spring is really here to stay this time. I've been doing the usual Saturday laundry and I need to make a serious grocery list and head in that direction. I'd rather go look for flowers so may do that too.
"Gma" -- I know you are looking forward to the ballgame with Thomas tomorrow. I hope the weather holds for you, and it is a good game. Aren't there other Red Hat groups that you could visit and see if they are more to your liking? I hate going into a group not knowing anyone at all. I always think their activities sound like fun around here. Not much else is newsy from my corner of the world and I need to get back to my Saturday chores. I am so looking forward to the end of the school year. A couple of other teachers were talking at lunch yesterday and they expressed the same thoughts. I don't know if it is the crappy weather we've been having or the kids themselves, but everyone is ready for it to be over. Have a great "rest of the day" and a super Sunday tomorrow!

Good morning friends! Sounds like it is going to be a nice day. The birds are already tweeting outside. Of course that means they are also already pooping on my deck! :lol:
We just hung out at the house yesterday, watched the Cubs game, which they won quite handily, and I cleaned the kitchen. I didn't even get much knitting done. I have almost run out of yarn for the blanket, so am going to have to get to Michael's and get about 4 skeins, two each color to finish it up. My blue ribbon sweater is coming right along though it is leaving sparkles everywhere including the pets. Fortune and Butterscotch could easily be best dressed pets with their coats so nice and sparkly. :lol: There isn't anything I can really do about it. The ribbon has tiny sparkle pieces as part of it and they come off. I was looking at a scout site and found some cute, what they called, spoof patches. I am thinking about buying several and sewing them to the blanket panes. They have a game boy merit badge, an x box merit badge, different kinds of adult badges, all kinds of stuff. I figure I can find at least 6 and scatter them on the blanket in a pattern somehow. Well, I should do morning chores. We are going to leave her around 12:30 to go pick up Thomas so we have plenty of time to get to the ballpark, park in the parking garage and walk to the park. If we get there too early, they have a place just for kids that Jack can take Thomas over to and play for a bit if he wants. They are giving away oven mitts today so I would like to get there early enough Thomas can give one to his mom. Not that she cooks a whole lot, but kids like stuff like that. Faye |
Good Afternoon, Flowers! The sun is shining, the wind is blowing, and it is 90 degrees outside! :eek: The weather channel says it will be 90 again tomorrow . . . it should be a wonderful day in paradise! We got up and got ready for church as usual. When we got there, there were no cars around. We looked at each other and remembered that the "Messenger" had said there would be a one church service Sunday coming up and today must be it. :o So we went back home and waited two hours to go to church. They were having a "hamburger bar" for lunch and then an auction where people bring their treasures, talent, or time to spend on some project and the people bid on the items. We made a donation to the cause and then split after church was over. I've been repotting some of my house plants and Bob has been planting geraniums in the outside pots. I'm still doing laundry and sweeping puddles down the drain. :(
"Gma" -- I hope you have a great time with Thomas today! It will be even better if "your" team wins! ;) Hope you all have a nice "rest of the day" and a marvelous Monday tomorrow. Smile and do something nice for yourselves! Jean -- :wave: from Iowa! |
Good morning everyone! Hope you have a nice day today.
We lasted not even an hour at the ballgame. Thomas ate some ice cream and complained of a stomachache so we brought him back home. His mom got mad at him, because he was ok when he got home and she felt we wasted a lot of money on him. We felt he probably was bored, but we weren't mad or anything. So, we only watched the first three innings. Good news is I didn't eat too much junk and I have lost enough weight the seats didn't pinch! So for me, that was a success all by itself. We were tickled as the couple sitting behind us had a two year old and his name was Jackson! There seemed to be babys and toddlers all over the place yesterday. Luckily, the tickets I bought ended up being in the shade the whole time so it would have been a pleasant game. Thomas has his very first piano recital in two weeks. He said to me yesterday, "If I have mastered Fur Elise than I will play that if not, I will play a song my mom doesn't like." I ask him why did his mom not like it and he said it had too many sharps in it. I think maybe it is the difficulty of the piece is her concern, but I know he will play like a champ. He showed us his new violin and played a little for Granddad until his mom made him stop. He is still in the screeching level! :lol: We hung out at home for about an hour then went and got some dinner and came back and tucked in for the night. I just had a bit of soup and a bit of pasta. I wasn't feeling too much like eating last night. Jean: Bet you felt like there was a time change and you somehow missed it, huh? We did that once when the time changed in the fall. It is weird to go somewhere expecting a parking lot full of cars and seeing nothing! Hope your good weather contines. It was almost 90 here yesterday and is supposed to continue in the same vein this week. Well, I am going to hop up and get my downstairs chores done. I still need to vacuum and dust upstairs and would like to get to it today as it will be time to start all over again in a day or so. Have a good one today and enjoy the nice weather! Faye |
