Just over here sneezing, coughing, and blowing my nose... What are you guys doing?

Puppies, puppies, everywhere! That is going to be my summer life!

Dottie has 5 on the way (but hopefully, one more hiding in there). Dinah has what looks to be 13 on the way!!!!!!! Well, in 2017 we had 17 pups. I'm sure we can handle it. I was hoping for 2 litters of 8, so what's another two pups, right? LOL

Food has been utterly awful the past several days. No excuses other than my choices. Lots of momentary stress right now - hugely busy days, house guest, Ron's hearing loss is really impacting our daily lives and he won't do anything about it, puppies, school.... Just lots on my plate and I'm using food this week to cope, I suppose.

My back is healing, but still tender. I am gun shy. I am looking forward to PT class today and hoping to get a hands on appointment ASAP. I think I will hold off on working out until next week.

Pretty much it from here.

Hurray for puppies!!! Wish I was closer, I could use some puppy breath and snuggles.

Greetings

Oh boy Peps, puppy breath times 18! You are so lucky. It will be a whelp-a-thon!

CC sorry you are in snot city. Nothing to be done but endure and binge watch tv. Chicken soup warranted.

I am still not dressed. Having coffee. Banking and studio on the agenda today. Maybe more later.

So I wrote this at 10 am this morning and never pressed Submit, LOL!

Windy, windy, windy again. Really strange for here. Everyone has commented about the wind this year.

Time to put the second coat of paint on the stools. I finished covering the seats yesterday. I have my fingers crossed that they will look good when done.

After that we are going to the beach club, then it is time to highlight the hair roots. Hopefully that comes out okay too LOL.

I have been thinking it is time to weigh. Maybe tomorrow? Mike has lost 5 pounds and his cholesterol is way down. I need to get my act in gear.

Update: stools are painted, we did go to the beach club for a bit, and my hair is processing.

Peps! 18 puppies!!! Won't Dinah be HUGE with 13?

CC, feel better soon!

Have a safe and healthy Thursday!

Its going to be a summer Puppypalooza! Congratulations Peps.

Give yourself the time you need to get better CC. Hope you have nice tissues for all the nose blowing.

Liz, you'll post pictures of your redone bar stools?

Diane, Getting dressed is overrated. I like to think my flannel pjs are the new version of leisure wear.

Today is the first sunny, semi warm day in weeks. High up to 57. We have a sheltered, sunny southwest facing corner by the deck. In the summer, it's shady, but with no leaves yet, it's the perfect place to grab some sun. I sat in a deck chair with a warm wrap and my face lifted to the sun for almost an hour. The air is still coolish, but April sun has some heat to it. So I am happy. Rain again by tomorrow night, but today I am a vitamin D, serotonin producing being.

I love to read outside bundled up but with sun. On Cape Cod I try to find a sheltered spot on the beach to do that in the spring and fall.
