Life is not the way it is supposed to be. It is the way it is. The way you cope with it is what makes the difference.

Now It Is Thursday night!!!

Hello. Yep, Thursday night, time to hunker down, shut down the computer, feet up, last of the programs before turning in and I am thankful for a good day, all day, and had friend Lois stop bye for a visit which is always fun and our libation is always tasty...smile. There were no goodies around, guess I didn't do very good shopping...oh well, I will have to make a special trip to stack up on the good stuff...smile. It is late, and turning in time is coming up soon. I am ready to lay the body flat...smile. So...I will keep this short and let you know that day ends, night time wanes an our sleep pattern is about to begin....but..not before a little reading.. Time to say good night and sweet dreams. Hugs to all.

A Thursday Morning

Good Morning. Bright sky, baby blue, stillness, not a leaf turning, the little bird is on the roof top and the worker cars are parked on my side this morning. Sip, sip.....aah.....coffee....coffee.....hot, delicious and one eye open, a new day, a Thursday all day and hopefully it will enfold into a bright beautiful day. I am thinking an 'in' day as I have laundry to do. I am still waiting for those disposable clothing that was talked about some twenty years back, guess they cannot find a formula. Oh well, keeping busy is good for us....well, I keep telling me so....not sure I believe it when I am looking at my book and an easy chair...ha.ha. yes, ambitious....sometime....but not today...ha.ha. There is a new worker car, a grey beauty, and the only one with a clear roof, all the others are frosted. It is really quiet out there, not a bit of a breeze, nothing moving as the sun shines on a leafless tree and it really is pretty in the morning sunlight. So I will wish you a good day, a fun day, all day and hope you get out and about to do the things you want to do. I need groceries, can't keep anything in the cupboards. I will go make a list in case the girls are heading for the grocery store. As for me, I am heading for the kitchen, a refill of my coffee and a bit of news, feet up for awhile and then I'll think about facing a new day. Be good, be kind, be YOU!!! Hugs to all.

Now It's Tuesday Morning!!!

Good Morning. I am not awake. I am up. I am moving but the body wants to stay quiet and do a lot of nothing special this time of the day...Blinds are down in the hospital wing. The cars are parked under my window and the bird is on the roof top. Trees are still, Coffee cup is empty so I am off for a refill and to finish this blog. My snuffly nose is still enjoying the remains of a head cold, the muscles are waiting to be exercised but not in a hurry, smile....a new day, wonder what is in store for all of us...something good I hope. So, wake up when you want to; enjoy a tasty breakfast and have yourself a good day, all day. I am off to refill my coffee cup, look for something sweet and I already know I devoured everything that contained sugar. I am really not hungry so I can wait awhile and maybe I'll 'drop' and egg. Go, have yourself a good day, all day, doing what you want to do. Be a love, be a friend, be you. Hugs to all.

Monday, a new beginning ...

Good morning. The hospital roof top is solid frost this morning, so are the roof top of the parked cars, still, nothing moving, and the sky is a soft baby blue. A new week beginning...a new Monday to find things to do, work to finish, shopping to do....we just never run out of things we have to do... My coffee is delicious and almost gone. I am going to go for a refill, hunker in my chair for awhile as I watch the early morning news. My head cold is still with me but not as bad. I think it should go away but then it has a time zone it follows and never listens to me. A new car just drove in and it is celery color; unusual, pale green and I mean pale. Other workers are in and parked and on my side today. I have two black and three grey all shining an bright and I'd say not long off of the showroom floor. Pay must be good here as there is not one junker to be had. It is Monday, start of a new week and I wonder what is in store for us. Hopefully the weather will be bright and sunny and opportunities will come our way to ride out for a nice day trip somewhere; but, I haven't heard any such news so we will just have to take one day as it comes. I hope you have a good week and get to do all you want to do. Take care of your health. Take care of your wealth. Take good care of YOU. Hugs to all.

Sunday, February 24, 2019

Sunday all day!!!

Good Morning. It is black out my window, no telling earth from sky; the night light is on the outside wall of the hospital wing and nothing moving. Quiet, silence, Sunday morning about five a.m....yeah I know...why am I awake....body clock says so...not me as I am willing to snooze awhile longer. Worker cars coming in slowly. No one moving inside this building, all snoozing and that is a good thing. As for me I am off for a refill of my coffee, feet up on the hassock and turn the tv on and hunker down for another hour or so. It is just to early to get up and go anywhere. So, I will love you and leave you for now. I hope you are enjoying sweet dreams. As the saying goes...'later gater'...I'll be back. Hugs to all.

Saturday, February 23, 2019

Saturday Morning.

The sky is light, very light blue, almost white and the bird is on the roof top across the way. The trees are still. The worker cars are parked on my side this morning and only one shade is up in the hospital wing; the rest are drawn tight and the folks sound asleep; it is just to early to be up and about. A little bit of snow is on the tarmac over there, a shaded area so it is slow to leave. There is a patch of blue over a very white cloud and our new Saturday begins. My coffee cup is empty so I am going to love you and leave you as I go for a refill...then to my easy chair and turn on the Saturday cowboys....yippee kiaye....wonder how that is spelled...thought I knew...oh well...smile. Saturday morning and it is good to see all the cars and trucks parked on my side this morning. I can see one bright red, one Navy blue, two grey and on tan car parked out there. There are more but further down and not within my sight. There is not one junker in the bunch, in fact I'd say nine out of ten parked cars are new. Must make good money. My coffee cup is empty so I am going for a refill, hunker in my chair, watch the Saturday morning cowboys and think about putting my shoes on a bit later to go out shopping. My grocery list is long today..."there is nothing good in this house." So have yourself a good day, all day, doing what you want to do. Be good, be kind, be generous to a fault and celebrate you today. Hugs to all.

Friday Morning around five a.m.

Good Morning!!! Dark out my window, no cars moving in or out, silence, dark, cannot tell the roof top from the sky and my coffee cup is empty....I'll be right back. AAH!!!Bless the coffee beans.... It is Friday, the end of this week and the beginning of a new weekend..um....wonder what is in store for us....I spent time at the Gallery yesterday and watched the ladies change things around. It seems like a lot of work but the ladies seem to enjoy it and when finished the Gallery looks welcoming. We did have a few folks drop in, one group of young girls who seemed to enjoy it. I had some busy paper work so that kept me busy. The weather was really lovely and a perfect day to be out and about, especially with a stop at the Gallery in mind. The art work is well presented and a fitting voice for the talented folks that contribute to making the Gallery a wonderful place to visit. If you haven't been in for awhile, make it a point to find a little time to stop in and say hello and enjoy the work of the talented local artists. My coffee is hot and delicious. There is nothing 'good' to go with it, but then if there is anything 'good' it doesn't stay around here long. I am thinking of scrambled eggs...um...good idea, so off I go to the kitchen...a new day....a busy one I hope...and I wish you a day to remember with love and good will to your family and friends. Friday, all day, um...it has a good ring to it. ... so....go and have a good day all day doing what you want to do, let the have to's rest awhile and catch up with them next week. Off to watch the news, hunker down for awhile longer and plot and plan a trip to the grocery store as the cupboards are bare. So....off I go.....hope your day is terrific ..just like you....be good, be kind, be gentle. Hugs to all.

Thursday, February 21, 2019

Now, it is Thursday night!!!

I am about ready to turn in for the day but have a little more time and energy to share some more time with you. It has been a good day, all day, doing the things we love to do and going off to the Gallery is one of the highlights of our time away from home. The ladies were busy revamping the areas, making the gallery look bright and smart, changing....pulling, shoving, and finding new spots , new corners, new places for the art work that needs to be shown to the public. If I had the money, the space, the talent of choices, I would have several new paintings that have such beauty. We do have some talented artists in our town and if you have not visited the Gallery lately, please take some time out as the folks have special talent and delight the senses with the beauty of the work they do. One walk in the door of the Gallery and you want to set up an easel and start a special picture all your own. Most of us do not have a talent for painting but then if you have not tried it, then maybe you should and see what kind of a picture you can paint. You might surprise yourself. Good folks, fun to hang with, fun to help and share time with. So make a point when you are out and about to stop by the Gallery and enjoy some 'time' filled with beauty and, if you have a small, or even a big space in your home, you might take one of the pictures home to hang and enjoy. There is so much talent and beauty...go...find out for yourself. Bed time her. Off to snooze and build some energy for tomorrow. A new day, a busy day to be had as there is grocery shopping to do, a bit of browsing too....maybe lunch out, one of those nice big fat juicy hamburgers with cheese...um.....okay, it is late, so off for a glass of water and turn in and save the appetite for tomorrow.....What is that song about "meeting me in the hallway" ....plan a trip out and we will indulge to bulge...smile. Sleep tight...enjoy your down time with sweet dreams. Be kind, be gentle, be YOU!!! Sweet dreams when you get there...Hugs...

Now, It is Wednesday Morning...Hump Day!!!

Good morning, pitch black out my window, nothing moving, sky is early morning blue but not the midnight blue it was a little while ago. One eye open, no special thoughts to share, still half asleep but my coffee cup is full, tasting time, aah..... TV is on, ads, what else???? A night worker is driving off, home, bedtime, as we wake up to a new day and make plans to use up all those daylight hours. It is Hump day..Wednesday....so,,,,I will wish you a good day, all day, doing what you want to do, which would be fun for a change...not what you have to do..ha.ha. wants...needs....we all have those so up and at it and get started on your new day doing what you want to do...good luck with that...ha.ha.ha. I have no new news, nothing happened around here, all is right with our world. My sniffles have dried up some so that is good. I am ready to put my shoes on and go out the door; now, the trick is to find someone who wants to run away with me...It really is to early to go out, I will go hunker down in my easy chair, watch tv for awhile and give a little thought about what I would like to do and maybe just go do it..smile. Have yourself a day to remember. Do some of the things you promised yourself you would do this week. Have some fun. Be a good friend. Be a good person just because you can. Be YOU!!! I am off for a refill....watch the tv and after awhile I will put my shoes on an go out the door...there is nothing 'good' in this house...ha.ha...you have heard that before. Some of us have a sweet tooth that is never satisfied...smile. I am looking out my window and see my neighbor is our walking his little dog. They are bundled up as it is cold out there so early in the morning. Trees are still, not a bit of a breeze. A small amount of snow is still on the tarmac over by the hospital wing. One bird on the roof top. as for me, off for a refill, hot coffee...aah!!! feet up, tv news on and a new day begins. I wish you a good day, all day, doing what you want to do....so go...do it. Hugs to all.

Tuesday Morning!!!

Good Morning. It is clear and cold looking out my window. A bit of snow on the hospital side and no snow at all on the parked cars. It is early, quiet and nothing moving at the moment. I have one eye open...coffee is hot and tasty....and there is nothing to go with it...ha,ha. you said that right along with me...There is one bird on the roof top across the way and a little bird skimming over the bushes where the snow is piled up , but not very much. The blinds are still down in the hospital building and the trees are still.My head cold seems to be better this morning and that is good...There is a new grey car in the lot this morning, a beauty, a light dove grey, large window roof top, It is quiet, no noise of any kind. So we have a new day with hours to fill...wow...a light like green car just drove out of the lot...ugly color. a tiny roadster went bye with light blue and beige colors, different, not sure I'd like it for me...but then I am happy I do not have the upkeep of a car....a new day, no plans as yet. So....I wish you a good day, all day. I hope you find places to go and things to do. I think I heard we may have some rain today, but right now the sky is clear, a baby blue, almost white and not a bit of a breeze The bird is on the rooftop , the blinds are open over in the hospital wing and I am off for a refill of my coffee...hunker down in my chair and watch the news for awhile. So when I start to repeat myself then it is time to go for some hot coffee, some news, and feet up and a new day to fill....I hope your day is wonderful...I hope your day is filled with promise of good things to do...to enjoy, to share with someone you love and like. Be good, be kind, be YOU....Catch up when you have time.

A New Monday Morning!!

Good Morning. The trees are still, the workers are coming in slowly and parking where there is a bit of snow on the ground..not very much, but it must have been cold in the night and the roof top of the parked cars have a little snow on them, more of a frost I would say. It is still, quiet, and the night light is still on in the hospital wing wall. All is still and quiet. My coffee is hot ...aah!!! one eye open and a way to go before the brain is fully awake. A new day, a new Monday, the beginning of a new week. We had a good yesterday and had a coffee break at the local restaurant with Louella, her husband and daughter, nice folks, fun and easy to be with. It was nice and fun sharing time with folks we like. The macadam is wet, a bit of snow in the garden area and the cars are all parked under my window this morning. It is quiet out there..not even a breeze, nothing moving at the moment. My coffee cup is empty....that was a fast cup...smile. so I am off for a refill, feet up, tv news on and I will sip and watch for awhile. I hope your new Monday is a good one. I hope your week goes well. It is time for you to catch up with a bit of news about you and what you are up to this week. I am off for a refill, news, and a tiny snooze in my chair. Be good, be kind, be YOU. Hugs to all.

Sunday...All Day!!!

Good morning, sky is a soft blue this morning, tree tops are still, the hospital windows are all dark and folks are sleeping in....well some of us are up and almost awake. there is a new silver truck parked out there this morning. Some one has good taste and there is not a junker in the lot so they must make good money. One little grey roadster just drove bye; cute; doesn't look like it is for tall folks, smile. Smoke is coming from the chimney, going straight up, not a bit of a breeze out there but there is still a little snow on the rooftop and one bird is out there looking over his or her world. As for me, my coffee cup is empty and that will never do....I am off for a refill, turn on the TV and find out what happened in the night. I gabbed so long my coffee is cold and that will never do. I like my coffee hot... So it is Sunday all day and I hope you find places to go and things to do to make you smile. Be a good friend and take some one or two along for a ride. Go sight seeing and stop for a bit of breakfast while you are out and about. Share some pancakes or drop an egg...ha.ha. well that is what we New Englanders call a poached egg. Just have a good day, all day, and do what makes you smile. I am off for a refill, tv on....feet up....no hurry, no fuss, and a new day begins. Stay warm, healthy and happy. Hugs to all.

Saturday Morning!!

Good Morning. It is pitch black outside my window, a Saturday morning about six a.m. , probably sooner, haven't looked at the clock...if I did I'd probably think of going back to bed but I am one of those...you know one eye open and it stays that way for the rest of the day....oh well, I'm up, not quite awake yet but have had my first sip of coffee....aah!!!! Some of the workers are parking. Some lights are on in the hospital rooms, two, so far, the rest are sleeping in. It is Saturday morning and a lot of folks can look at the clock, roll over and stay put for another hour or so....the best of the week...no work....nothing to get up early for...unless there is something or somewhere to go that is worth the effort of getting out of a nice warm bed. My head cold seems a bit better this morning so that is good. I'd like to be rid of it as fast as possible. The counter has the bottle of cough syrup which taste so bad the cold germs leave as fast as they can. So, I am off for a refill, wake up, watch some television, yeah....cowboys are on....smile. Go, have yourself a wonderful Saturday doing what you want to do. If you feel ambitious call a friend an meet for breakfast out, that is always a treat and fun. Have yourself a Saturday to remember. I am of for my coffee refill, feet up, television on, aah....no rush, no fuss, Kleenex at the ready, coffee cup full....and there is nothing in this house to go with it....well, maybe if I put a little jelly on some toast it will make it taste so good that I will think I have a special treat and enjoy it. BUT...there is nothing as good as a big fat jelly doughnut or one with lemon in the center; or one of those long crullers...okay, toast isn't all bad. Have a wonderful Saturday, all day, doing the things you want to do, let the have-to-do go until tomorrow, or next week, or better still ...never!! Be good, be a friend, be kind, be gentle, be YOU!! Hugs to all.

Friday, February 15, 2019

Friday Morning!!

Good morning!!! A new day, um....wonder what is in store for us...something good I hope.....the head cold is still with me but better this morning, so maybe I am on the mend....It is dark out my window, the night light still on the side of the hospital and nothing is moving in or out. It is early...some folks know how to sleep in.... As for me, I am up, waking up, empty coffee mug ...um....wonder where that first cup of coffee went...ha.ha. It is Friday all day and hopefully there will be places to go and things to do today. But that is a long way off yet....still have some waking up to do, coffee to drink, news to watch, feet up and catch up with myself for a new day. I hope your day is bright and beautiful, just like you. Have a good Friday...fish and chips...um..sounds good to me....maybe I can talk the girls into dinner out... Go...have a good day doing what you want to do....be kind...be gentle....be the best you can be and make someone you like and love happy to have you in their life today. Coffee cup is full; news is on; a new day to enjoy. I'm off....well you already know that...ha.ha. have a good one. hugs.

Flu....flu....wish it would fly!!!

Good Morning. Snow on the roof top across the way. Cars parked under my window this week; think the drivers take turns on what and where to park every day. I am entertaining the flu bug and do not like it. I am being cranking ....I'm entitled!!! Well, I say so. I am off for a coffee refill, feet up, news on.....another 'down' day and I don't have to like it but I have to 'suffer' through it. I hope you have a good day all day doing what you want to do. I hope you are staying healthy and content. I hope that you are up and out the door having some fun today......poor me.....ha.ha. Go, enjoy your day, stay healthy and happy. I am off for a refill of my coffee and there is nothing to go with it.... Oh well, it cannot last forever....I hope....smile. Have a fun day, a good day, doing good deeds, helping a friend or two; being YOU. Hugs to all.

FLU !!!!

Snow on the ground....snow on the roof tops.......pretty to look at...smile. I have a flu bug so am hunkered down with the tv...a book...a hot toddy...a cup of tea on occasion..smile. and fighting germs.....I don't like having a flu bug...I really do not....I want it gone...I'll be back when I am healthy again. Hugs. Jean

A New Monday Morning!!!

Good Morning!!! It is dark and cold outside as I look out my window and see snow on the ground, bushes covered, roof top of the hospital wing is covered and there is not a bit of a breeze, nothing moving. My coffee cup is full and my first taste is 'aah' .... will have to go for a refill soon..smile. I didn't go anywhere so have no news to share. I have the remains of the cold bug and am glad to see the end of it. This flu bug has its own way of getting around no matter how hard we try not to catch it. Right now the trees are still, the roof top covered in white and the parked cars with snow on the roof tops, a good three to four inches of snow. One car is covered and it looks like a snow mound. The sky itself has a lavender cast to it, very soft and pretty. A new Monday. So, I wish you a good day, a day to be busy, a day to feel good, a day that will live in your memory banks for a long time to come. If you have to go out and shovel, take it slow and easy...too much exercise all at once is not good for the muscles....slow and easy does it. Stop and look at the sky and enjoy the beauty that is there. Leave your snow shoes on the back porch, go find your easy chair, turn on the morning news and hunker down for awhile longer. I am of for a refill....watch the tv news....and smile because I do not own a shovel, have only to watch someone else do the 'heavy' work...smile. I'd like a nickel for all the shovel full I have done in my day. I used to love to get out there and make a path in the early darkness of a winter morning. I wonder if you remember walking the top of the snow banks on the way to school. It was such fun and when we went through the snow bank and got soaking wet it meant that we had to take our shoes off, dry our socks before we could start our lessons for the day. Winter memories, not all bad. smile. I'm off for a refill....hot coffee...aah!!! News is on. A new day....a snow day....life is good. Have a good one. Hugs to all.

Sunday, February 10, 2019

Sunday All Day!!!

Snow on the roof tops and on the ground. It is pitch black out my window but the night light is on the hospital wall shining bright. A few cars coming in to park for the day and at this time of the morning I cannot see where the sky begins and ends. It is early. maybe around five, haven't looked at the clock...if I did I would be tempted to go back to bed...smile. Some folks have the early shift over at the hospital wing and I am betting it is a bit frosty out there as there is a dusting of snow on the ground this morning. Saturday has come and gone and there was nothing much happen around here. The flu bug is around and I am having a session with it as the bags under my eyes look like two peep holes in a blanket. Another quiet day in store for me and I was hoping to get out in the fresh air for a bit...but not today...oh well....flu season...it just hangs in there. I am off to put my feet up, turn on the television and find out what has happened in the night. I am going to check the kitchen and see if , by any chance, there is something left out there for a breakfast....well food doesn't last around here for long....there is something about buying good stuff that keeps the cupboards bare. I wish you a good Sunday...a blessed Sunday...a Sunday that brings smiles to your face and a lot of love in your heart. Share YOU with those you love and like. Be a ray of sunshine and enjoy your Sunday. I am ff to my easy chair, tv going on and the kleenex box is at the ready...sniff...snaught.... and I do not like head colds. I do not like any kind of colds. I do not like being sick. I don't like a lot of things but they top my list today. Off for a refill of my coffee.....Off to hunker down and sulk....I am really getting to be a good at it..... So you have your marching orders for the day....GO.....have some fun....Do what you want to do...let the have to do go for another time. Today is YOUR day so enjoy it. Coffee ....coffee....I'm coming, I'm coming......I don't like being sick with a head cold. I don't like being down and out ...I'd rather be up and out;...oh well, beggars cannot be choosers so the old adage goes. I am off to sulk.....you didn't know I was so good at it....well I've had a lot of practice lately...flu bugs are so easy to catch.....or I am improving with age.

Saturday, February 9, 2019

Saturday...

Good morning. Snow on the ground, very pretty, The roof top of the worker cars are covered and silence abounds. I am off for a refill and watch a little news. It is much to early ...Saturday morning...um.....back to bed for awhile.....good idea....I'll be back later gater.....no news is good news, so count your blessings, roll over and enjoy a few more hours ....snooze!!!!

Friday, February 8, 2019

Friday Afternoon!!

There is a lone bird sitting on the roof of the hospital building which is across the road from me. It is storming right now, snow is 'raining' down and one of the workers is trying to take the ice of his window with his bare hands. He has gotten into his car and probably hopes the windshield wipers will do all the work for him. It is beautiful out there at this moment. Snow is falling heavily and there is a stillness, a quiet time, worker cars down to a few as the worker day ends. It seems to be raining but there is snow in the drops as they fall on the pavement and no time is lost for a quick turn of the window wipers and backing the car out of its spot and take off to head home after a long day of work. Right now it is really snowing, coming down as I am sure it means business. The bird is on the roof top and not moving, cars are still coming in, night crew, I bet. There are fewer cars on my side of the tarmac as it is time for a new shift to take over. A stormy ride home and hopefully a good dinner waiting with folks who love them. I have had a quiet day. I wish I could describe the falling snow as it bounces on the road and covers it with a white coating. It is so beautiful. The flakes are huge as they build on a parked car, right in front of my window, The roof is already covered. The windows are covered ...a lovely scene...a winter's view ...so beautiful....bet it would be fun to walk in. The birds are flitting around, probably looking for a covered spot. One big bird is on the roof top not seeming to mind the storm at all. I am fascinated with one small round bush which does not hold any snow at all on it. The others around it are covered but this one small bush just seems to defy nature and stays bare of snow....wonder how that can be as it is out in the open...strange, but nature has its secrets. There is a huge white McKesson truck out there, have no idea what they carry but it must have to do with hospital supplies as it comes several times a week to the hospital building. In the short time I've been talking with you, the snow has covered the entire hospital roof, the huge trees behind are pure white and the bushes in front of the building are wearing snow caps. Winter has a lot to offer the eye. So it is Friday, going into early evening, almost dinner time and I am going out to the kitchen and see what I can find. I'm hungry...and 'there is nothing good in this house" ha.ha. where have you heard that before??? Not here!!! Ha...ha. I hope you find your way to a lovely table filled with food you love, folks you love and enjoy your dinner. Stay warm and cozy, enjoy 'looking' at the snow as it falls so gently to earth. As the snow falls with huge flakes it really is the sound of silence. Go. Have a good rest of your day. Hugs to all.

Thursday, February 7, 2019

A New Thursday all day!!

Good Morning. I am sitting here at my desk, looking out the window at the huge bank of trees, a sky of fluffy white clouds interspersed in the top of the trees; very beautiful, different, calming and still. Nature at its best. It is Thursday morning about five thirty and silence prevails. A lovely time of day, a quiet time of day....the parked cars in front of my window are topped with frost, looks like snow, Silence.....a new day begins..... It must be cold out there as the roof tops of the parked cars are white with frost. So many workers on the early shift, all ready hard at work and one or two of the room lights is showing under the closed blinds. The trees are still, the sky is a soft pale blue, more white than blue and not a leaf stirring. A new day, wonder what is in store for us. As for me, the cold is still with me, and I don't like it....ha.ha. well, you know I have to have something to gripe and groan about....a head cold is not fun...a head cold should be banned....a cure should be found for the common cold....it has been around long enough. There is a snow or a frost cover on one of the bushes which gives my imagination a work out as I see an eagle, huge, big, and very beautiful. The roof top itself is almost clear of frost with the exception of the lower edge where the snow has collected and it leaves a ribbon of white along the roof line. The night light is still on, a brilliant orange shade, glaring and hard on the eyes. As for me, my coffee cup is empty, so you know where I am headed. The easy chair awaits, the tv is on and news should be coming on. I think 'they' should pay us for having to listen to ads....I made up my mind long ago that I would not buy anything advertised on television...ha.ha. so I get even???? ha.ha. I wish. So I will take my head cold and snaughty nose off to my easy chair. I will have another quiet day. I can hardly wait to be free of the cold so I can get out and about and into some kind of mischief. You 'guys' are having to much fun without me. Be good, be kind, be generous to a fault, love one another and add one or two kind deeds to your day as someone out there needs YOU in their lives today. Let me see, another down day for me...so I will hunker down in my easy chair, sulk a bit when no one is looking...and plot and plan some good things to put on a list and have my girls bring me some goodies which cure a common cold;..or an uncommon one....smile. Cold bugs are sneaky so go carefully....Try and avoid anyone that even looks like they have the sniffles....I don't want to be sick. I don't like being sick. I don't want....a lot of things..ha.ha. so say a prayer this to will pass and I will sit quietly and plot and plan my outing...I will open the door and run....ha.ha. now that would be something to see....ha.ha. !!!! Go!!! Have yourself a good day ..all day. Hugs.

Now it is Wednesday afternoon!!!

I have a nasty cold in my head.....enough said......I do not like it.....have more to say about that!!! Sunshine, beautiful day and I am in..I really do not like it....but you already know that. Flu is miserable, but it will pass ..hopefully sooner than I think. I want it gone NOW!!! It is quiet around here. Everyone is going out and about and passing by my door as quietly and quickly as possible. They do not want the bug...I would be happy to share..ha.ha. no I really wouldn't but I sure wish I could find a spot to get rid of it so hopefully, one of these years a cure will be found. It can't happen soon enough to suit me. It is a beautiful sunshine day out there. Worker cars have been parked out there since early morning. There is no wind, so the trees are still. The snow on the roof is thin and slowly melting and the bird is still sitting up on the roof top along with a buddy or two today. Wow..three birds...a first. I am off to make myself something to nibble...there is nothing good in this house....ha.ha. you have heard that before. Hot tea is a cure all, so I will put the kettle on. I have had goodies so there is no appeal; thinking cold, ice cream and of course, there is none....nothing stays around here for more than a few hours...;probably would have it into minutes if the truth were known. ha.ha. I want...I want...not to be sick with a flu bug. I want...I want to be able to go out and about and enjoy the warm sunshine...oh well...beggars cannot be choosers so I'll go sulk , hunker down in my chair. watch tv...or maybe I'll read awhile.....Maybe I'll snooze and get over my sulk....I don't want to have a head cold. I don't want to be sick. I don't want a lot of things but sometimes we have no choice. It could be worse...so I'll be good, mind my manners and have a cup of hot tea...the cure all. Hope your day is a good one and you are enjoying being up, out and about, enjoying your day as you should. Go...practice being good today...be a love....make someone smile. Thinking of that one of the ladies here is so good at doing that..she makes a point fo sharing and caring some one little thing when you are down and out...she manages to leave a little dish of something tasty, or a note, or a kind word wishing you good health, a kind and thoughtful lady ..a real sweet one. I'm off...going to watch tv for awhile....think about doing another row of crocheting.....or not...ha.ha. I'll be back. Hugs to all.

Now it is Tuesday Morning!!!

Good morning. A new day. There is a lot of white snow on the roof tops of the cars parked under my window. It looks like there are a few slivers of black clouds in the pale sky. The trees are still. The worker cars parked under my side this morning and the frost is thick on their roof tops. It looks cold out there and the bird is on the roof top sitting quietly. A new day My coffee is delicious, helping me to 'open the other eye' and decide what to do with my day. I have no plans at the moment but I am sure to make some before the day is over. A quiet day appeals to me as I am still a little congested from the head cold that didn't want to go its own way. The roof top across the way is loaded with a white frost. The tarmac is wet and the bushes look very pretty with their topping of snow. I am smiling as I look at the worker's cars parked under my window this morning. I would say about two inches of snow on one of the car tops and the others have just a slight showing of a white top, most have already been cleared. My coffee cup is empty so off for a refill. I will put my feet up, watch television news and wonder what is in store for us today. I am thinking of a grocery run as there is little in the cupboards this morning. Of course when you have a cold you want to eat...snacking goes with it....cold bugs are known as hunger bugs, we always want something and if it is 'good' then all to the better. Sweet cures...well you asked!!! I hope your day is wonderful. I hope you find interesting things to do with your hours. It is always fun to invite a friend or two for some tea...but the choice is yours, so choose!!! Make your today worthwhile. Hugs to all.

Monday...All Day!!

Good morning. The cold lingers, a bit of light snow on the ground outside my window. I bet it is cold out there...brr......looks cold and quiet with nothing moving at the moment. A frosting of snow on the bushes, looks very pretty but cold....I am off for my first cup of coffee and to wake up. The throat is a bit sore so another down day. I hope you are well. I hope your day is a good one. Be good, be kind, be you!! Hugs to all

Sunday Morning!!!

Good Morning. Pitch black out my window; nothing moving; black sky; stillness....quiet.....there is always an exception as my nose runs away with itself...a head cold. where did it come from? I don't want it. I don't need it....I am going to sulk....pout....gripe...groan and moan. I'll spare you the details.....a head cold is nothing to brag about...smile. So..I am off for a coffee refill. I ate all the goodies yesterday and there is nothing good in this hose this morning....well toast...but that is not special....filling...taste okay but....ha, ha. the but is always tagging on the end. To find a cure for the common cold it has to be sweet.... Have yourself a good day, all day, doing what you love to do best. Be a good friend, a mentor, someone who shares and cares....Kleenex, Kleenex..where did I put it....out...I cant be out....oh well a roll of toilet tissue works but it isn't really the prettiest decoration in the room. I hope you are healthy, feeling great, having a good day, all day.....Someone mentioned sulking is good for a common cold...so I am off to sulk....Hugs to all.

Sick, Sick, Sick!!!!

Good morning. I have a head cold. I have a cough. I have to love you and leave you as I am off to the kitchen to make some kind of libation that might ease the stuffiness; I don't want to be sick. I don't want a head cold. I don't want to be coughing. I don't think I'll be doing much of anything today....time in my easy chair, tv on....snooze in between....whine....find something to ease the throat...I'll be back when I get rid of this stuffy head....cough....teary eyes....So....you go and have a good day doing what you want to do. Keep away from those that are coming down with a nasty cold ....I'll be back when I get rid of this 'stuff'....Have yourself a great day, a day to remember..be good, be kind. be YOU. Hugs to all.

It is Friday all day!!!

Good Friday morning, a rainy morning, no wind, soft sky, worker cars parked in front of my window, a new blue sport car, huge side lights, rides low, must have cost a fortune....or close to it...smile. I have a snaughty nose, congested, head cold, so am going to hunker down with my book and sulk today. I am not going to even try to be good company....'so there'....smile. I'll be good, but quiet, and hopefully get rid of this bug. The skies are pale blue, the trees are still and the worker cars all parked for the day. A new Friday. A day to end this week and a new weekend coming up. I had hoped to 'run away' maybe go play a bit but with this throat, I don't think so. So I will go get my book, sulk awhile and say a prayer or two for patience. I don't like having a bug ...I don't like being sick....I don't like a lot of things...ha.ha. so .off I go to mind my manners, get lost with Clyde Cussler and chase all the bad guys down. We have a cloudy morning so no sunshine for the ground hog....good. early Spring is good. Go...have yourself a good day, all day, doing what YOU want to do. Get the have to jobs done and over and enjoy the rest of your day.
