A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Banter Hall Coffeehouse 2275... Glad you arrived!

I haven't opened a Coffee house in a Long time

Well then, it's about time

yep I agree with that.

Well hello stranger.

Well, I know---but welcome to my world. I always have too much to do and not enough time to do it in. (I wonder when Rod thinks I could even GO to work if I did find a job) and then if I try to fit everything I WANT TO DO into a day--well--I always seem to come last.
That is why I hold so firm to my tuesday mornings and ceramics. If I dod not there would be things for me to do then.

(As a matter of fact, back in the day Rod would find things for me to do on Tuesday mornings, so after a few I said ok I'll do it but not on Tuesday morning. It was not quick but finally my whole family caved & my tursday mornings were my own.)

AND you must remember, Rod is here now---and even if he is in a good mood, he is still here--on the computer a LOT of the time.

SO, everyone pray that Rod goes back to work soon !!!

Praying that Rod goes back to work soon for more than just your sanity, Carol. (Although that may be a little late... teasing )

yes I know and I DO agree with you--on many levels

I am glad no offense was taken. I miss the funnin' around here sometimes.

no none was taken and if yo had not of apologized I would not o f thought a thing of uit at all


and yes the kidding around was fun

I really do hope that Rod's opportunities open back up for him soon. The job market is really stressful to me for some reason and I am not even in the market. But every job loss I hear about is another little dart to me. So I will pray for you and Rod.

well thanks. The good news is that the govenment is subsidizing our COBRA health insurance & it is now cheaper (the same insurance) than if he was working.

but I can only take so much of him here & being on the computer---
he says he is on it for "good reasons" but if I were not on it so much then I would be thinner--
and this from a man in a good mood.

I am trying to find a compliment in there for you. It is hard going.
Going to say good night all. I need as much beauty sleep as I can garner.

That is fine--nice of ou to try though. I am going to fine myself some pretty flower photos for my new scrapbook and then I am headed to bed as well.

Enjoy your beauty sleep. I could use some as well...

...and pray for me too. My DH has been home the past four weeks as well, with maybe another 4 weeks yet ahead... Grant me patience, grant me patience

We need a major snowstorm.

Praying for you both. I know it is hard. When John retired my life changed a lot and not all for the better. I missed my me time a lot.
Good morning. It is to reach upper 70's today and I have plans to use it.

Thanks Tina

I keep trying to think of chores for DH to do, sad thing is that I done most of them this winter by myself....hmmm, maybe the driveway could be swept again though

The sun is shining today although it's calling for a few flurries later.

anybody home???

I'm here for 5 more minutes.

so quick tellme how you are doing--I/m eating lunch---DH is sleeping in the chair so I am here

I am fine...but I have to head out in a few and do a small job.. I got called to go do two hours work for a neighbor..money is money.

DD called and needs grocery money again...my budget is stretched beyond stretching. That kid is gonna wear me out.

What is for lunch?

I had cookies

well I am glad that you got 2 hours---I dont get that. have a good day

Tina it is hotdogs with cheese & applesause.

but hey it'll fill me
VERY pretty here too for today--rain & snow this weekend

Tam,ara sorry about the DD thing---but I guess it is good they have us huh???

Ya well $20 for two hours isn't too bad...it'll buy DD boxed mac and cheese for a week

Gotta go...I'll be back later, have a great day girls.

Yes, i was watching the weather channel last night. spring looks pretty wintery for a lot of you east of Colorado. Nana is getting snow today and for the next few too.

You are a good mommy, Tamara--have a good day

Tomorrow is supposed to start out nic-er and then by night be rainy & possibly some snow---and then keep going into & during sunday. next week is supposed to be nicer but not like this.
(Yesterday my frog thermometer said it was 79. but then the west sun was hitting it. but I think it was likley 74-75 easy.

Rod is leaving and I think I will too. I like to be out in the pretty weather.
I can always clean when it is rainy & colder, right????

Yes, I have been out a lot today. And more outside work to come.

I'm back...geez..the spammers are at it again

Hope you all have a nice day.....they say we might get snow tonight...whoohoo

Snow is good for employment possibilities, Tamara. If they need to call in the crews.
I am about finished with today's projects. I really need lunch. And then a nap.

Hi everyone. I thought I had tiome to come and visit a minute but I haver to go and fix up things for Rod as he is grilling brats tonight--silly me wanted to go and get fish---
'
I'll be b ack when I can

It's storming out...

Well, i hope your husband gets some work out of it, Tamara. Stay safe.

How about painting for the husbands who are stuck at home. Johnny's got a list a mile long and I can think of more if I need too.

well I could come up with a list too, Sheri--but wirth not so much $$ coming i n, it is not too weise to go and spend $$$ on things. We had this discussion the forst week he was home---I even forget waht it was we wanted to do, but he said when he had the $$ he didint have the time & visa versa---and so it goes----

since it is canada & not the mid-west in the USA I will pray for snow--for you......

I am finally in for the night. I've been finessing the outdoor bathroom because I guilted myself into it. I kind of set the project on a back burner for a bit. So many little honey-do's I set for myself have gotten put on hold and I need to get on top of them.
