Hello, O-Fam!
It's snowing again. Bleck! Thankfully, not a lot at this point but it had stopped and now it started again. :/ It was a mess trying to walk around with J at 5.30 am. She wanted to be in the street- that was good because it was salted and mostly clear. But--it was salted, so not good for her paws. Then she wanted to go to where she normally poops on our walk but that would mean she had to climb through the pile of snow left by the plows. Next, we tried the backyad which was pitch dark other than the small light from the kitchen window. After 15 minutes of that, it seemed that she only wanted to sniff the air. Meanwhile, I was tired of standing in the snow!
I had such a nice visit with BFF. Panera's OTOH, was a mess. I ordered a tea (there was no milk or creamer at the coffee kiosk) and an untoasted bagel w/ butter. Got the cup for my tea, was told that they'd call my name when my bagel was ready. A few minutes later, I thought I heard my name, went to the counter. The guy doesn't even have my order yet. Wait a little longer, think I hear my name. Still no bagel, still no order. (It's an untoasted BAGEL!) Went to the front- the poor cashier was the only one up there, the line was to the door. She ran a bagel over to the pickup station. I am still waiting for them to put the darn bagel on a plate. 5 more minutes, still waiting.
I went back to the counter and apologized for bothering them *again* but asked if they could just give me the bagel, a knife, and the butter packs, I can do the rest on my own!
BFF and I talked over some ideas for Caitlyn's bridal shower which was funny because I am going to my mom's on Friday to talk that over. Sam messaged me on FB yesterday morning asking about it. I guess we all were waiting for the holidays (and illnesses) to be done with and now everyone is mentally on the same page. It's exciting! I am asking my Sis-IL to be in charge of games. She is the one who has us laughing non-stop every Christmas Eve with the games she comes up with.
Today is a day at home. I have to finish food shopping and clean my office (yes, again!). I started two LOs the other day and they need to be finished and uploaded. I guess I am going to have to shovel snow too. meh.
Hope you all have easy days ahead!
