Nicolette Vaughn 294340 Report post Posted February 27, 2013 Watching my cat being mesmerized by the faucet in the roman tub in my master bathroom. I turn it on a just a little drip and he will sit in there for at least an hour just staring at it and is so cute when he tilts his head like a kitten does when playing with something.. I don't like him jumping in there because I find myself cleaning it constantly but that bath tub has rarely been used ( I'm not really into taking baths) so I let him satisfy his curiousity each time.

JoyfulC 132299 Report post Posted March 2, 2013 Just finished my first ever audiobook to completion. And it was a pretty good experience! I've never had the patience for audiobooks. I lose my train of thought (usually to reading something else). But this week, I have had strep throat (for only the second time in my life). I don't know how people can handle having strep throat regularly. I find it excruciatingly uncomfortable, and the worst torture of all is that, although I haven't had the strength to read or keep up with my correspondence or whatever, my brain isn't shut down. So it's like lying here being uncomfortable, silently screaming AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH! WHEN IS THIS GOING TO BE OVER???? So I went online with my library and selected Mo Heyder's "Birdman." It was a good story and, really, under the circumstances, I found it more satisfying than a movie because it lasted longer, and there is almost as much exercise of imagination required for listening to a story being read, as there is for reading it. It might be the perfect solution to what to do with my brain during the long days of canning season at the end of the summer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mister T 45020 Report post Posted March 2, 2013 A few highlights today: The main one: I visited a lady-friend i hadn't seen in months (last we saw each other was very quickly in passing), so it was nice to sit down and to chat and catch up a bit. This was followed by a tad of shopping for clothes initially, but the first mall yielded some new tools of the trade for me. Second mall yielded a few clothing items i was looking for a while. These just might make someone smile a little bit. And now, after all the walking around, i sat down and i am enjoying a bottle of this (and its pretty darn good stuff): Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

roamingguy 300292 Report post Posted March 7, 2013 Highlights of the day today Took the day off today to drive mom to the surgeon in Kingston for a post op exam. Highlight 1. Had a good lunch at the Golden Rooster restaurant in Kingston Highlight 2. Appointment was at 2pm, we arrived just before 1pm, in at 1:10pm, her appointment over at 1:20pm...OUT EARLY YAY!!!! Highlight 3. Last week right after the surgery she could only read the top line of the eye chart, this week, third line down. And no signs of the cornea being rejected. So good are the results she doesn't need to see the surgeon for another three weeks...outlook very good Highlight 4. Made a couple stops at Timmies today, three cups won the roll up the rim (ok, just 2 free coffees and a donut LOL) RG 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Phaedrus 209521 Report post Posted March 9, 2013 For whatever reason, today finally felt like spring is on the way. This makes me happy. Also, I have a huge pile of jellybeans and I'm stuffing my face with them. This also makes me happy. Tomorrow I shall whine about feeling fat in the "thing that suck" thread, but for now, I'm eating more jellybeans, and staying happy :) 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
