The Loopy-O
CHEERY O
GooOd mOrning, O-s!
I wish my brain would wake up a bit, it is 7 am and I am already sluggishly trying to think with little success. My mental conundrum this morning is whether I want to put the chicken in the oven or the crockpot. I just had Gary put it away yesterday after Cait made apple cider in it and it sat on the counter for a week. But I am cleaning this afternoon which means I am going to have to get it in the oven as soon as I get home. pfft. Decisions!
It doesn't help that I despise cooking any meat with bones, but if I get a chicken from the pantry, I am not going to let it go to waste. double pfft.

I guess if that is the worst of my problems today, I am luckier than most. I will take it. ;)

I had a bang-up fun day yesterday, did two of my favorite things: Food shopping and bill paying. heh. On the other hand, we had leftovers for dinner so I didn't have to cook so it's all balanced out. Other than flipping a coin to figure out how to cook my chicken and then clean for my friend, not much else is happening. Tomorrow I hope to have all of the recipes for F-Ws sorted so I can place the orders. Who knows how long the shipping will take?

Have a fab day!
 
@Cherylndesigns Gah!!! I love that dog!!! Look at how she is sitting, that is too cute! She looks like a floofy princess.
My pups are wearing their spooky bandanas and I think they look very cute. It was a little sad when I saw Ray's in the box though.
I wear multi-focal contacts 99% of the time but I was able to get a pair of progressive glasses from Zenni.com. I know that an optometrist will say that you need to have progressives done professionally but I haven't had any issues with ordering online. If I wore glasses all of the time, maybe I would spend the money but the pair I have cost $80.

Hugs to everyone!
 
Morning, all. Up and dressed early this AM as the termite control guy will be here in just a few minutes. I like that he does my neighbor's and my yard early in the morning so I am not waiting around all day for him to come. Walked out to put the trash container out on the street for pick-up a few minutes ago and looked up to see several hot air balloons floating right above me! ! ! Managed to snap a few photos of them. 2 of them went right over my house. It is always a delight to watch them sailing over the neighborhood. Now I feel that October and fall has arrived. Plus it was only 42* this morning... definitely a nip in the air.

Yesterday was a do-nothing PJ day for me. The wind was howling - gusting at over 50 mph most of the day. Had on my warm fleece PJ and fuzzy socks and just futzed the day away reading and relaxing with hot coffee and/or Spiced Pumpkin tea to drink. Yes, had to change the A/C over to heat on Tuesday when the cold front came in along with rain/sleet.
 
Morning everyone... quickly popping in to say hello and then I need to get my grocery order in before I lose my time slot for pickup tomorrow. Yesterday's hike was lovely! The sun came out for us and it stayed nice until we were done 3hours later. It was a tougher hike than what we have been doing, but one of our favourites! Bings creek is pretty much a steady climb through old growth forest and it is so interesting to see how the trees change as you climb higher. Had lunch in a meadow that had large rocks to sit on and enjoy the view. The sun was really quite warm! So nice to sit and chat with everyone, we are noisy bunch so we never really worry about bears LOL. I was late waking up yesterday morning and this morning. It must be the cooler darker mornings that is helping me sleep.

@faerywings - I hope you decide which way to cook your chicken! Either way I am sure it will be delicious! Hope the cleaning goes well and I am doing your two fav things today also. Groceries and paying bills Ugh!! I do hope to get a couple of Halloween cards done for the Grandkids. Oh and I did not have a family photo on facebook, it was a photo of the changing colours down at the lake taken from my kitchen window. Also posted a photo of the front porch decorations, but sadly we did not take any photos of Thanksgiving. :( Mason has picked out his costume for Halloween he is going to be a Skylander character and Hunter keeps changing his mind on his costume. One day he wants to be a ghost, then Batman and then a Skylander like his brother. Poor Heather. Isaac and Sadie have picked out their costumes but they are characters from some game that they both like to play, so I have no idea what they will be LOL.

Kay - How thrilling to see the hot air balloons come right over your house!! Hope you post photos! Sounds like fall has really arrived for you! Hope the termite guy gets rid of those nasty little critters for you!

Well I am in need of my second cup of coffee and a bit of breakfast, so I best get on with my day! Have a wonderful Thursday everyone!
 
Hi everyone. I'm back home. Been to work today. Oh, the drama! High school was a breeze in comparison with this ... how should I put it ... female dog???

Need to go and deprogram my brain, and try and think happy, pink, unicorny thoughts. Will return when calm again.
