I am sitting here at the desk. I have been working on yesterday’s mail while catching up with VanessaT who just returned from quarantine. DG is still on quarantine. There aren’t that many people here this week anyway. Those who were here only worked one day and took the rest of the time off.  Admins gave us an extra recess day for this holiday and ( Read more... )

So did you all turn your clocks back? I got up at 5:30 this morning to feed the cats and started to. The first one was the stove and microwave. I have to change the one on the radio upstairs and the clock above the sink. Over the years my family and I would either do it before we went to bed, or in the morning we would take the time out to do it. ( Read more... )

While I was catching up with my blogging and watching TV last night there was a discussion with the amigos. It started with our dinner next week. Ann seems to think we should cancel it because the corvid 19 spike is up 6.1 percent. Truthfully I don’t know what that means. This is the data tracker and maybe you guys will understand it better than I ( Read more... )

I am having a very slow start to the day. It’s cloudy and 72 degrees right now and is expected to get in the mid-80s. It might get really sticky weather wise.

I probably should take a walk before it does get too humid. I have already cancelled today’s class. I have until 4 to get there. It actually closes at 5 and in order for me to do cardio I ( Read more... )

I was just sitting here thinking this week went by quickly. This time last week I was doing the Finding Friends Trivia night and shoving an exorbitant amount of onion rings in my pie hole. That started my unhealthy weekend and eventual trip to the hospital on Sunday.

There were somethings I missed writing about at least a few times this week. First ( Read more... )

Today is a beautiful sunny but going to be very cold Valentine’s Day. Everyone whom I gave cards to received them and thanked me (well two out of three isn’t bad). My two furry valentines were very lovable. More than once during the night Sky slept on my shoulder. Sigh. Somewhat different to yesterday and the last few days where it’s been rainy or ( Read more... )

Did you know that the song Joy to the World is the most popular Christmas song? It heralds the birth of Christ and calls for all to celebrate the love and happiness it should bring. I found this very interesting article on the origins of this song. Love it.

I was up at 6:30 that morning and thanks to a persistent Sky I made sure I fed the cats and ( Read more... )

It was nearly noon and 27 degrees out when I started this entry. I had already been out for class at the gym earlier. It was sunny but very cold. I was really looking forward to going to the gym and to work with Alex.

There was some activity out in the preserve. The Crows were going crazy and that could only mean one thing. A large predator was ( Read more... )

I was expecting the weather to be cloudy, cold and very windy and it was as the day progressed. It started off sunny and 45 degrees. It was pretty much the same in Killingworth. This is probably a good thing. I have heard from friends across the country. They did get snow and it ranged from 8 in to a total foot.

I baled on the gym in the morning ( Read more... )

This weekend is Columbus Day weekend. Its where all the final Leave peeping activities finish up around here. Actually it may be peaked by now and it lasts for another moth. In years past my friend Dave would want to go up north into Vermont and do most of it there. The few times I went with him we would want to take the Gondola up one of the sky ( Read more... )
