'Our Mrs. Reynolds'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I did indeed end up with a GSD on my bed at midnight. But she was very good and just curled up next to me with her head on my hip, and we slept well. However this is not going to be a habit, because I cannot deal with GSD hair in my sheets as well as everywhere else in the house.
I'm having an open house today and I'm at the "done just about everything" point, so I'm sitting down for half an hour with a cup of tea. My house hasn't been this clean in a while...
I feel like a need a new kitty because I miss sleeping with my nice warm kitty. Even though she used to wake me up by sticking her nose and tongue in my nostril!
oh Sophia, you do need a new kitty. I may be looking at the Rochester Animal Services page RIGHT NOW.
Sophia! Pooh Bear! [link]
Aw, he's so cute.
It seems unfair to start the new year with cramps? But so be it. I slept in, and then laid in bed for almost an hour just because I didn't want to get up. I wanted a magic butler to appear to bring me a heating pad, and coffee. Sadly, one did not appear, so eventually I got up. At some point here I'll have to decide what I want to do today...clean? Cook? Most likely sit around and read more books and be lazy.
My upstairs neighbor has a NY day brunch every year. So I just had to go up a flight of stairs to get hoppin' john, collards, and a bunch of other good food. Now I'm disassembling my tree. Every year I say I need to clear out the ornaments that I don't need, but this year I'm actually doing it. Some. Anyway, there's a Firefly marathon on El Ray, and the weather's warm enough that I can have the windows open. It's a pretty decent start to 2019.
Hope the cramps clear up quickly, meara.
That is for sure unfair, meara.
I had a quiet evening at home, reading (1.5 books shy of my goal for the year) while the cats stalked a house centipede.
Woke up to feed the cats, take an anti-inflammatory med (for my ankle) and cold medicine so I can breathe, went back to bed and slept til noon.
I just got a request to be interviewed on a podcast. I don't think speaking in any kind of public format is a strength of mine. I guess I should check out this podcast to make a fully informed decision.
FWIW, a good interviewer can do a lot to bring out the best in a guest.
I had a nice and fun evening doing what I love -- chatting with long-time friends in a little house party. We're for the most part old enough now that we're trading stories about hospitalizations and illnesses, alas, but at least in a positive way, you know?
I'm still coming to terms with turning 60.
