Ok, so yesterday when it was in the 80's, I might have tried to blow a leave in the air. It didn't work so I vacuumed them all up in the mower and bagged them for trash pick up.
Now today, we started in the mid 50's and that is our high until maybe Friday. What? We are going to have 2 nights in the mid 30's. What? Don't you know that Texas doesn't get that kind of weather until maybe December or more likely January? And last year we had 2 below for the first time EVER. I know, it is all this global warming!
So I guess it is time to trim some trees for firewood (we don't have a fireplace inside) or turn the heater on for two evenings since inside our house is still 75° right now. And just admit that...
for a few days. I sure hope some of you survive the early snow this year as that usually waits until February in Texas if it happens at all. So Blessings and Hugs from me and all the beautiful Monarch Butterflies in our area. My video of one yesterday was magnificient!
Where did the weekend go? How am I going to work in December and get anything done? Ok, so I didn't get anything done this weekend either but... I have missed you.
It does take a village. Hubby and I work so well together. Yesterday I said we need to get this done and looked at him and repeated we. He said, "I know, you think it up and I do it. That is we." TEAMWORK.
This is how we feel this afternoon. Yes, we have a big yard (3/4 acre) but it used to only take us a couple of hours. Now after most of the day, we are whipped and I think Rbt's back is out. TEAMWORK.
He will probably call the chiropractor tomorrow if he thinks he can get in the car so I can drive him. TEAMWORK.
I will have to start getting ready today. Now you all know it takes a while to look this good. And that too is TEAMWORK.
We are waiting for the Braves game tonite~Most of the Children in our area are going to safe Fall and Harvest Fun Places~But we do have candy for whoever shows up~I know for sure Two~ My daughter & Grandson...lol....Enjoy your Evening~ Hugs Lorri
Friday! My goodness where did the week go? Last weekend in October! Where did the month go?
OK, so maybe I have been soaking in the tub (I never take a tub bath, just shower). And maybe I got my new Halloween nails on today after my shower and in between cooking ribeyes and french fries.
Now, what do you think? I am going to tell you that I love them. I put on the ColorStreet color "Moscow or Never" and then added the clear top with spiders & webs.
I had already painted my toes, but I liked it so much that I added a spiderweb to each of my big toes. And it really takes less time than when I used to do my own color.
Trick or Treat? What goodies do you have? I am seriously thinking about relaxing a little more today before the doorbell starts ringing this weekend.
And the book I am reading is so good. I can't wait to see my neighbor as Robin and his best friend as Batman.
Yes, there are some days that I wish I still drank. Today I would really like a drink.
Our wind is sustained at 28 mph with gusts from 40-50 mph. So even walking to the mailbox is dangerous. Live limbs are breaking and falling from trees.
We had to pick up something in Rockwall this morning and I thought the car door was going to snap my legs off when I got my feet on the ground. And yes, I was hanging on to the door handle as a gust threatened to blow me away.
So I am going back to cooking up some dogs... no, no... cooking up something for the dogs. And then...
I think I will relax for a while. Maybe read a good book from my Kindle in a tub of warm (not too hot) water. What about you?
We always try to add things to the grocery list before they become urgent... but, how can we be out of milk? Well, I had to meet the 2 ladies at work this morning for breakfast so milk is now back in our house.
But guess what... there was a reason for a breakfast "butter up". I am working most days in December. Crazy Tisha is moving to East Texas so I will work with Kelly until she can find a replacement. I love working when they need help and I know it won't be forever. So I am excited but also very sad!
So we got 8/10" rain early this morning as the front came through and it was fairly slow and soaked in. Now the sun is shining and at noon we are only 62°.
Just makes me feel like dancing!
What are you cookin' up for this weekend? I sure hope it is something fun and tasty. As soon as you are done cooking and putting up all the decorations, why don't you relax.
After all, you deserve it. So enjoy the rest of the week and the weekend and the kids (ding dong) ringing your doorbell. Because it just might be me ringing your doorbell.
