Today I downloaded my Kobo ereader app onto this new laptop. Tomorrow it will be hopefully the printer. Slowly, slowly and I will get it done without losing my mind and getting frustrated.
Our postal system has given a 72 hour strike notice. Just before Christmas when all the cards need to be out and winging their way to various provinces, states and countries. This is not going to be fun at all.
I have finished a few projects over the last little bit and will post pictures on my roundup post on Saturday. Pictures do need to be taken, and a couple need to be finished up. Looking forward to putting the sewing machine away and getting the loom warped and ready to go for a couple of weeks. I have a couple of very quick weaving plans in mind. Longer ones will have to wait until the Christmas season is over.
Casserole cooking happened today. I have three ham and rice casseroles made, and cooling. I will be working on the chicken ones next. Probably a big one for tonight's supper and a meal later this week, as well as a smaller one that we can have on a busy evening.
Looking ahead to the weather coming up we are being told we get the white stuff on Friday, then some rain and later a bit of sun but colder. I am surprised that winter has held off for this long. Not looking forward to what is coming, yet getting prepared and ready for the probable blizzards that will be happening. I am just so glad that we are both retired and have no place we really need to be.
Cute story. On our way to Kris's place we noticed a house for sale on his block, just down a bit from his. It looks well looked after and when we pointed it out to Kris on our way back from computer/laptop shopping, he said it had been completely redone inside and outside. He also said it could be perfect for us (Laughingly I had said this to Harvey as we passed it on our way to visit and Harvey said it was too close to Kris and perhaps Kris wouldn't like that). When I mentioned how close we would be, Kris said " I will just turn off the lights and lock the doors." I think he forgot that I have keys. LOL
I need to get the second set of casseroles ready for the oven, so I need to go. I will visit you all a bit later.
Everybody have a wonderful evening.
God bless.
I wouldn't want to live that close to my kids because what's to say that they won't up and move elsewhere. Our #2 son keeps trying to talk us into moving to BC but it's not going to happen because he's also talking about wanting to get away from the high prices there.
ReplyDeleteCute story - I think it sounds like he might enjoy mom & dad close by. You have been busy. I bet the casseroles will be good.
ReplyDeleteIt certainly would be a convenient location, especially for helping with the yardwork. I bet Kris wouldn't mind. Of course, I live with my kids, even it is only part-time. They don't get to lock me out.:)
ReplyDeleteI look forward to your roundup of finishes as well as what you create with your loom. Our kids would love for us to live closer to each other.
ReplyDeleteI think you should consider that house! At least look it over and see if you like it. I bet Kris would be thrilled to have you closer. I live close to my kids and we all agree it is great for all of us.
ReplyDeleteIt would be nice to be near to your son. Stay safe when the snowy weather comes.
ReplyDeleteInteresting - maybe you should consider that house. Close to family can be a real blessing. xx
