Hump Day

Imagine if every Thursday your shoes exploded if you tied them the usual way. This happens to us all the time with computers, and nobody thinks of complaining.

Off for a routine morning. See everybody later. Chilly morning here.

Gerry, I think we're by passing Spring.

Good morning everyone. We worked in the yard all day yesterday. Today shall be a shopping day. We need to find some new bushes to replace some we lost this winter. To all here and all who follow, have a Wonderful Hump day. Joe, I hope you can find the perfect computer with a keyboard you like. I don't care for the keyboard I'm using now either. The one I realy loved died, and you can't get it anymore. I'm hoping I'll get used to this one. Danish, Cereal with Bananas, Omelets, and Cinnamon Buns in the NC.

Joe You get my mornings to shine better Thank-You all these years for the Laughter you are so needed in (not only mine) but every Boomie here...Lives, and for that I say "Thank You" ever so much

Hello, everyone. I'm afraid I have to whoosh once again. No work today, but I'm meeting my friend for lunch/a day out, and I'm running a bit late. Hope everyone here has a fantastic Wednesday.

Howdy ho, sweet Joe! Thanks for the openers! Happy Hump Day!

Good morning, sweet 'Boomies!

Alrighty, gotta skoosh! See you later!

Good morning everybody.

I appologize for the comments today, or lack of.

I really couldn't stay awake to finish it.

Leanna thank you. You're too kind.

It's cold and rainy here once again, and I have much to do, and miles to go before I sleep, and miles to go before I sleep.

The sad part is that there won't be any head hunting today. Maybe tomorrow.

I'd better get busy. I've already wasted too much time.

joe

Wonderful Wednesday ya'll

It's going to rain, so if I'm going to get the monkeys for a walk, I've gotta get moving. I'd much rather sleep. I'm on my 3rd cup of coffee but I think some evil person has removed all the caffiene cos I'm sure not feeling it.

If my brain ever wakes up today, I will be balancing bank statements.

Daughter called but for some reason, the connection was awful so for all I know, I may have given my blessing for her to marry a goat. I couldn't understand most of what she said, so I just said "Ok" a lot.

Back later

Joe sorry you will be too busy for head hunting today, but good luck tomorrow!! Thanks for the laughs!

Howdy
Travler have a nice day!

Haroula enjoy the day!

Cailyn I just was reading that there is a high pressure over Greenland just sitting and spinning which is hold back Spring temps from arriving this year. Well unless you live in the SW part of the country where it is warmer then the norm. Good news is that they think it is finally starting to move out. Have a lovely day!

Gerry have a nice walk and a lovely day!

venus have a nice lunch and fun with your friend.

Connie have fun shopping! Thanks for the danish!

Gail good luck! HUGS! Have a lovely rest of the day!

Leeana hope things are going OK in your neighborhood!!

Darlene may work go smoothly today!

L4l hope you can get that walk in before the rain arrives!! Good luck with the books!

No more plans today till taxi time, which is almost upon me. Have a lovely day all!!


Nan

Hi Boomers! Haven't been to the Diner for a few as things are getting busy here. I think Spring is somewhere in the vicinity although today is chill and grey and rains are expected again for several more days beginning tomorrow. I am off to plant some potatoes, red and russet and Yukon gold. Then to my Mum's to blow leaves off front patio and more. L4L, you crack me up..Marry a goat???!!!! To all of you I hope you have a wonderful day and Happy Gaming!!!

We are half way to the weekend.

Good morning and good afternoon. I have been moving nonstop today. I am still enjoying my time out of the corner and getting as much off my to-do list as I can.

I ran the dogs this morning and cooked and cleaned, washed the windows on the outside and just finished emptying and cleaning out the refrigerator. It's a beautiful thing to get some things done.

Are you all enjoying this fine hump day?

Ana

I know how you feel Ana. Went through my list earlier and am now trying out my Ninja Prep Blender...making enchiladas...it did the onions and celery in a blink and also shredded the chicken almost tooo much. I will learn but I am very happy with this tool!! Yes!!

I have the Ninja also Lotus. I don't use as much now that I have the VitaMix but it's a handy thing to have. Have fun! Enchiladas sound great.

Ohhhh Enchiladas do sound yummy!

OK so if I say something weird, bear with me. I've been 'fixing' my shower all day and have now put 2 coats of that spray on waterproofing goo they advertise on TV that floats a boat with a screen door bottom. Ha.

Started at 8 am, tore off the contact paper, then the aluminum tape edges, and the 10 coats of rubber paint on stuff and then sprayed straight Clorox on everything. Went out for a walk and lunch and bank, then came back and sprayed down the Clorox.

THEN made sure everything was dry dry dry and sprayed a whole can of that 'stuff' on my tiny shower floor. The entire shower is about 2 by 2 1/2 feet. I have a tiny bathroom in a very old house.

So the can says covers 4 to 14 square feet depending on coverage. Ha. Coverage bare minimum takes a whole can for my tiny little spot. So I am now high on Toluene and other horrible smelly, flammable stuff and sprayed another can just now. Waiting for that to dry and I will eventually have 4 coats to be sure everything is sealed.

All windows and doors opened. House stinks, can't make my nose work. All I can smell is Clorox and now the spray rubber stuff. Going outside to sit on my porch swing till the smell goes away.

Ohhhhh. And in the midst of it all, put out my old tenant's water heater and dutifully called the trash company for 'large item pickup' tomorrow. The water heater lasted about 10 minutes before a truck pulled up and a guy 'stole' it. I guess it has copper or something he can recycle and sell. So I had to call the trash company back and tell them not to come. Oh well. Heater is gone anyway. That was the big part.

Headache...going outside!

Sorta, the scavengers love those items. They scour the neighborhoods here all night on garbage day.
I hope you can get the fumes out. Where is kitty throughout this?

Ana

Ana, Bubba Kitty is safely in his 'bedroom' away from all the fumes. Lots of open windows there and now I have the ceiling fans going and the fumes are slowly going away out the doors. I think we will both survive. Noticing more and more shrunken grout lines on the main wall in the shower and will have to run some rubbery caulk over them when I can stand on the 'sprayed' area on the shower floor. Gonna be 2 day project no matter how much I want to shower tonight, it's a no go. Sigh. Gonna fix this mess somehow without more damages. Then someday, I'll get rich and be able to redo the bathroom.

Sorta

I just watched an NCIS that I had missed last year. With that great luck, I'm heading up to bed. Sleep well all

Taxi home and parked for the night. Had a good time and what a surprise when My sister showed up! She was celebrating her bonus from work!

Hope everybody has had a wonderful day today!!

Night L4l sleep well. I do that too sometimes but not that show.

Night to all those off to bed. Sleep well and pleasant dreams!!

Ana sounds like you had a busy but fruitfull day!! Enjoy your free time!!

Sorta Twice a year we have a curbside pick up for things other then the normal weekly pickup. You should see what is left when they come to pick up....usually nothing.

Lotus hope you enjoyed dinner!!!!


Nan

Glad you had a fun night Nan! Congrats to your sister, bonuses are almost a thing of the past.

Sorta, I am waiting for my "someday I'll be rich and take care of it" too.

L4L, sweet dreams.
