Sunday December XIV

[Samstone]

Dare I take a chance and start this phred this morning. Hopefully I did not over look it already started. A beauuutiful day shaping up here in ol' Virginny. Cut some firewood, work on a fence and yes work on cleaning the house, really just rearranging the dead stink bugs! Hello to every one and hope you day is/has gone along splendidly!!

Morning Sam...thanks for taking the chance and kicking us off. LOL Looks like it's going to be a beautiful day here too. Rain, freezing rain and snow has stopped. Going to get above zero so will be playing the thaw freeze game on the roads. Dinner with my MIL celebrating her 90th. Only reason I accepted was the ex is not around.

Shout out to all stopping in today. Will check in later.....:smile: PPQP

Beautiful day here too but it's Monday. I did have a lovely walk with my daughter on Sunday and then went to her drama production. Ummm?....?
Always lovely to hear of longevity and older folk doing well PPQP.
Have you taken the AB Pauly.? Nothing to be scared of as long as you don't drink. It doesn't mess with your mind - it's AL that does that.
Off to work soon. Have a good Sunday lovely persons

Hi - not a lovely day here, not foggy, but grey for sure! and damp....
Have to go to "that" holiday do tonight - did not get sick overnight unfortunately so will have to get myself in gear and get orf there!
Got to write my Christmas cards today - got the letter written last week, now to put in envelopes and addressed etc - probably won't arrive in time fro Christmas - just not getting myself into gear!
Good to see all today - hope the lovely day continues for those having them!

Greetings Abbers,

It's almost bedtime but I finally have a minute to myself. This was one full weekend but a good one & everyone survived, LOL
Even my daughter, granddaughter & SIL made an appearance this afternoon!!!!

Sam, you still have stink bugs too? Glad to hear that I'm not the only one, yuck. Far fewer than the last few years but stinky, nonetheless. Hope your day went well!

PQ, so nice of you to spend time with your MIL on her birthday! Wow, 90 is big, good for her. Hope your weather was kind to you today

TT, is your daughter an actress too? She sounds like a girl of many talents, nice! I am so grateful that I have remained friends with my daughter over the years, we just really enjoy each other's company. Re-gift that bottle TT - damn.

SL, glad the rain has stopped out your way! The pictures of the floods, landslides & damage on the west coast are frightening. I've only gotten around to sending a few Christmas cards this year, fewer even than last year. Don't stress out about them!!

Mick, you need to tell me more about the brass monkeys!

Pauly, hope you are OK - Det too!

G'night one 7 all!

Hi - 11:30 (pm) home safe and sound! Sober after the party, which was at a winery!!! Traffic on way there was as bad as a work day and I admit that I started to discuss having a glass of wine and not telling anyone - pretty stupid to work out a plan to cheat myself! Anyhoos, I did not drink, drove home and will be in a much better state than the rest of the group at tomorrow's management retreat!! Silly day with a hangover on a Monday!
Lav, rain returns tonight - it was raining in the bay when I left, and supposed to rain for rest of the week!
Cards all written and ready for the mail.
Pretty chuffed with myself, so off to sleep I go!
Sweet dreams all
