Friday Roll Call

Happy Friday!

I am so happy the week-end is almost here. I missed most of last week-end and week. I got slammed with a head cold that put me in my jammies for most of the week.

I will be packing up the remaining stuff in my basement that the family did not take and driving it over to the resale shop tomorrow in addition to stopping at the electronics recycle place for the township. Saturday we serve food in the Green Room at Willow.

What is going on in your corner of IL?

Good Morning,

Sorry you haven't been feeling up to par. So far, fingers crossed, I haven't gotten bit by any bug this fall.

The polar vortex has returned!. Not the news I want to hear on turning on the weather this morning.

Well, last night we went shopping for stuff at Menards. We are redoing one of our apartments and that gives Hubert the idea that a trip to Menards is mandatory. He is like a kid in a candy store. Anyway, I had to go to the Xmas Shop, and bought another Santa to grace my Xmas decor. This one is 3 feet tall and antimated. I also bought a lighthouse for the Xmas Village. Of course, that was justified by telling Hubert that we can use it on his O gauge railroad layout when he redoes it.

Today, I am doing my normal Friday stuff.

Have a great day,

Hugs,

TEEHEE! I think that I would like to hear about the polar vortex than listen to the political hot air that we have had on the TV, radio, mailings and signage all over the place for the last couple of years. The cool air brings in a breath of fresh air,  AHHHHH!

Note to self - we need to get to Menard's or Ace to replace our pre lit thin tree for the 3 season room. Thanks for the reminder.

The Lighthouse has to go back, it won't light up. That will be Sunday, when I head for Bloomington. I hope the store in bloomington will still have them.

Hello everyone

I am happy that it's Friday too. 

Last weekend was just too many parties...I know that sounds like fun but it can be tiring.

I did gat my new phone yesterday and it's not an iPhone.  I know what the heck.  It's a Samsung S5 I have to get used to the android system and already there are some things I like more and some things I don't.   

When I got to work this morning there was a neighboring factory on fire.  It kicked up a lot of smoke and it's still smoldering now.  There must be something in that fire that is throwing something into the air that is aggravating my allergies something terrible.  My eyes are watering and burning and my nose is all stuffy.  And I am the only one here that is having this reaction.  Everyone else is completely fine....ugh.  Why me???

I am miserable right now.  Blah.

Anyway....back to work.  Have a good day all.   

Update-

Greg put his Kitty Tabitha to sleep today.  She was almost 20 years old and she stopped eating almost a week ago.  And after trying different things to get her to eat he decided it was time.  She was blind and deaf and now she was losing so much weight.  So he made the right decision but he is sad.  I don't know what to do to cheer him or to even try to cheer him up. 

Poor Greg

The only thing you can do is be there for him. It is hard to put a pet to sleep. Do not tell him that that was he had to do or that he will "get over it". Just love him.

AAAWWWW. I know the feeling. Encourage him talk about the wonderful memories that he had for his kitty; the fun things and when she was naughty.
