Hey folks, welcome to the new whine/general topic thread. Feel free to use this thread to discuss anything that is on your mind. Caregiving- related stuff, life after a loved one's death, your own emotional wellbeing. Whatever..........anything on your mind.
The sun is shining but there is frost on the roof tops (brrrr). Today I will travel to the city to take Nephew shopping and offer assistance cleaning blueberries off his carpet.
Wait until Christmas into New Years Katie....to see The Holiday movie because the holiday is Christmas-months away. OR, see it anytime.
The movie sounds interesting...I have never seen it.
You are late getting to the slumber party!
The drawer is a cyber drawer, silly.
The kindle never made it into the drawer,
there was so much flannel in there.
Are you here to help make breakfast?
Any ideas?
Ever heard of Bone Broth? I've got lots, thanks to the hype
of the famous dr axe. It is supposed to heal gerd, and I added it to my berry smoothie yesterday. I guess one could put it into scrambled eggs?
You are mostly the earliest one up, regularly, after the UK, Countrymouse.
I know the night is over after you are up.
It is 4 a.m. here.
Good morning!
My pink and white striped nightshirt has satin on the outside, flannel on the inside, but it is not from VS. It is uncomfortable because it doesn't stretch, still like new after 20 years!
Has anyone heard of a house exchange program? I first saw the idea in the movie: "Holiday". One cute cottage was in England? Ireland? and one was in L.A., modern, high end (Beverly Hills?). People could start sending their parents or In-laws away on a vacation for free! Or go ourselves just for a change.
Yesterday, Hubs and I looked at more possible new homes. They always set them up so nicely with furnishings and so on. I asked the lady could we just buy it as is with furnishings etc. What a treat that would be. Probably they'd have to add 25 grand in furnishings to the price. They then took us to one that was not furnished. Looked like sh*t. Again, I asked, could we buy that one as is? She just looked at me sympathetically. LOL
For Luckylu, I recommend the red Lanz of Salzberg "In a Cat's Life" flannel print pajamas.
Gershun can wear the "Playful kittens" flannel nightgown by Lanz.
MsMadge can wear the Nordic Snowflake flannel nightgown, also available at The Vermont Country Store online.
Other favourites will be Eileen West gowns, Jockey, Lands End, and L.L. Bean, more casual plaids. Will we be saving a place for Cwillie, Sharyn, Ali, Countrymouse, Susan, Guestshop, FF, cdn, Golden, Katie??? zzzzzzzzzzzz.
It has been so long since we have had guests, or even a party! I bet you all will be talking ALL night long! Please R.S.V.P.
Yeah but "hubs, they invited themselves", "and you know how I love an impromtu party".
Did you know, being a cat Mom, that your cats love you for so many reasons?
One reason is that you allow them to sleep either in the drawer (keeping it open a crack); on the bed; or under the bed.
I remember this now, I know this now.
"Did you tell them prior to all this you were sleeping with your kindle in the bed all night?" "Tell them to behave, we need the room". Lol.
Why is it that everyone can be soooo very funny?
Take some stuff outta the drawer tonight please
now my sciatica is acting up and I'll need to sleep sideways
Yes well I was hoping to pay the contractor with a superfecta win on the derby yesterday but while I had the winner my other 3 picks were no where to be seen when the field turned for home
Have a great day. "Early to bed, early to rise" and all that. 🌝
I'm watching Marco Polo series on Netflix. I like it because of the costumes and I don't mind as much when there is creative license taken with 13th century history as, say, 18th century lol. It's not like we know much about what was really going on back then. It's a great show, very aesthetically interesting. The men's hair style from that era is so strange -- shaved to look like a bald spot, then braided on the sides. Just goes to show that anything and everything has been or will be in fashion at one time or another in human history.
That just made me think about the tribal women who wear rings around their necks to extend them a long way up, or wear plates in their lips to expand them. Whatever your particular culture says is attractive... So subjective, isn't it? Still, I wouldn't mind losing a little of this belly I have lol. I'm not going to go live in a place where they binge feed the girls on whole milk to make them fat and then they're considered more attractive,
"Late night human cultural musings with AliBoBali..." Back to Marco Polo. :)
Just folded my laundry tonight, the drawer is very crowded. Even the kindle has no room. Putting all electronics under the bed.
My dog died many years ago, how did that get under the bed? I am sure it's not chocolate! eeeewwww!
