The Loopy-O
CHEERY O
It's a dreary, rainy day in NJ and I better get used to it, it looks like it will be like this for the next 4 days. Thankfully-- no hurricane, as of right now, the storm is tracking east. Long Island and New England look like they are going to get hit, however. I hope that everyone in that path will be safe.

I feel better this morning, I slept through my typical 2 am wake-up. I made it until 4.30. woohoo!! I wasn't able to get back to sleep but I stayed in bed until 5.30 and sleeping straight through is much better than having it all chopped up. There was a tornado that touched down in a town to the south of me. So twice this summer there have been tornadoes within 10 miles of here. SMH.

I was on my feet almost the entire day yesterday and by dinner time I could barely keep my eyes open. I cleaned for my friend, cleaned here a bit, and started cooking dinner(s) around 2.30. I don't know why I thought it was going to be less time-consuming to make dinner - it was just enchiladas. But I had to make 2 dinners, chicken enchiladas for us and white bean and spinach for Caitlyn. I have today, the chicken ones were really good and Caitlyn loved hers too. And there are leftovers. Yes!

I have no specific plans today. I feel that I should take it easy-- but the big question is "Will I?" :D

Have fun!!!
 
Kay- how is your back today? Did the rest yesterday help it out?
Are you 8 months out from your second dose? I guess won't be until Nov. if I am counting right *holds up fingers* My mom is talking to her cardiologist about it next week when she sees him. Do you what is the recommended age for Shingles? That is one I want for sure, I have heard that shingles are BAD. :eek: I got chickenpox when I was 16 and it was horrible.
heh, your human-to-computer ratio is larger in your house than mine I think LOL! Good luck getting the printed connected.

@Cherylndesigns So sorry if my insomnia infected you. Did you get any better sleep last night?
I adore how close you are with Ava, such a special relationship. I was very close with my one Grandma (my mom's mom) and it warms me through and through that I see Cait has the same relationship with my mom. Of course, Caitlyn gets away with saying things to my parents that I would never *dream* of joking with my g-parents, Not even a tiny bit. The LO was perfect!
OMG!! That is so 100% me, I will be hobbling around after gardening and if Gary asks if I overdid it, Nope, Not me!! I am fine. :p I saw in the other thread that the plant is Johnson Grass, sounds difficult to get rid of-- good luck getting it out.


Waving hi to all of you!
 
Good afternoon all!

It's beautiful here today and 85! I can almost feel the tiny bit of fall in the air. I'm so anxious for fall again this year.

Chris @faerywings thanks a lot for sending your insomnia to me!!! J/K. I slept a little better last night - still woke up 2 or 3 times. I even got up early for me. LOL I'm glad I'm not the only one who hides aches and pains from their hubbys. If he knew, I'd get all kinds of grief when I go out again. "Nope - It didn't bother me one bit!" Now go away so I can hobble again. ROTFLMBO

Yes, thanks to Jean's information @scrap-genie I found out that it IS Johnson Grass! What a problem that stuff is! I read all about it and it looks identical to what's invading my garden! I'm going to try to tackle it again today. It's very invasive and hard to get rid of. It's kind of pretty though if you WANT it there. It looks like a HUGE Day Lily but it gets huge. I'm so glad to know what I'm dealing with.

We're invited to Adrienne's for dinner this evening, so we don't have to cook today. Since they moved in, she's a cooking fool. She always loved to cook and couldn't really do much living in that 5th wheel for almost a year. She used to come here and cook once in awhile, but she's having a ball now. She has that huge kitchen and 2 ovens and she's making wonderful recipes. We're looking forward to it. She fixed a delicious chicken dish two nights ago and brought dinner to us. YUMMMMM

Waving to all.
 
good afternoon - well the weather is somewhat clearing - but this weekend the weather says high wind and rain with Henri coming knocking at our door. Today was good as I got my hair cut. One of the other women there said how nice it looked. That made me happy as I really like my silver hair now. Then I went to the grocery store. OMgosh the one thing I wanted was diet DP and of course no cases at all. They did have a some small bottles but that was so disappointing. But I did get other essentials so it was not a waste. I got more scrapping done. It tires me out just looking at all we did. LOL. I am watching a new show on Prime but I think it is on ISDB TV but it is a fun story from Australia about to women running ranch in the outback. I love the accent.

@faerywings Chris wow standing all day I would have been worn out too. Your enchiladas sound yummy. Glad you have left overs! It is nice to have no specific plans! Enjoy!

@tanteva Eva sorry you are tired. I know what you mean about sleeping too much it can make you more tired! I hate it when my kitty wakes me up. But I am bad for her too as I have been know to move in my sleep which pushes her off the bed!

@Cherylndesigns Cheryl that is great that you now know what that plant is. Hope you can get rid of it. Andrea loves to cook. I wish I had that gene. I lost it somewhere. Her kitchen sounds so nice and big!

Waving to all!
