Fridays tasks
My day started early, as I wrote in Colleens thread. Still slowly decorating the house. Amazing how much stuff there is to go through. Getting a box ready for good will of things I no longer wear. Kind of hopping from task to task as the morning progresses.
Later this morning the dogs have an appointment for both dogs for well dog exam and shots update. Walking them to two blocks to the vets. They will have fun romping in the snow on the way. As always they will discuss with the other pets in the waiting room who is really the 'alpha dog' of the waiting area. If there are any children there, Oscar will try for a belly scratch. He can be such a clown at times.
Just got done taking with my dad on the phone. He is coming to visit for the weekend in 2 weeks. Getting our agendas straightened out. He is checking to see if I have any spur of the moment road trips planned, nope, not right now Patrece. But I suspect he could be packed and ready to go in 20 minutes if I set up a plan. The afternoon is still open for changes in plans. Maybe a little Christmas shopping, I can start wrapping gifts, the space under the tree is available.
Have a great Friday everyone. What weekend plans do you have? Not sure here yet. Going to be a fluid weekend, whatever stikes my fancy, I will get done.

Bummer.. wish you had the time open to plan that spur of the moment road trip! Paul and I were discussing that by May when you have some time off, the weather should be nice enough to hook that camper up to the truck and head North...????
I have been suffering terrible with sinus pain and pressure. Not sure if it is allergies, sinus infection or a cold.. This morning it is a bit worse than it has been. Feeling almost like someone stomped on my forehead and face while I was sleeping... ouch!
I am not getting too motivated for Christmas shopping or decorating. I really am going to have to just get er done. Maybe once I start, I'll get inspired. I will be watching the grandkids Sunday while my son and Lisa go shopping for the kids and out to dinner. Looking forward to my weeble time. (Connor too) but it has been so long since I have had any significant time to spend with my weeble girl. Kids have not been nice in the area of that.
Thinking Weeble might enjoy helping grammy decorate the tree. I'll have to rearrange it after, but thats okay with me. We have such fun together. I just have to figure out how to get my tree out, as the storage room it is in got locked from the inside.. I didn't even realize that door locked!
Ok gotta run folks..
have an awesome day!
Hugs!

Pull the hinge pins if they are on the outside. May sounds good, plan to spend lots of time. Depending on the newest gandbabe. I wasn't motivated to decorate until after I got started. Getting easier now that a good start is done. The dust bunnies reproduced while my back was turned.
Hope the sinus gets better asap. A whoping 18 degrees out today. The ear muffs felt good.

When you're done getting all organized, could you come poke me with a stick and make me get over feeling overwhelmed with it all?
I did go through some clothes before Thanksgiving. Found a nice 22/24 top that I could wear. My jaw about fell off when I tried it on. It's definitely a larger size 22/24, but still... I was wearing 5X, working on 6X when I went for my surgeon / dietitian consultation.
Did you have a pleasant trip to the vet with your snow dogs? I can't get our new cat in the carrier without trapping her in the bathroom and a few flesh wounds for myself. We had a terrible time getting her to the vet to get her stitches out 10 days after we had her spayed. Took us two days and a few injuries to both DH and myself to get her in there and to the vet.
DH's company Christmas party is tomorrow night. I haven't gone the past two years because of my self image. I'm looking forward to going. Got a nice outfit ready to go. I've still got problems with Rosacea but if I have trouble with my make up I'll just take it off and wear some lipstick and mascara and skip the rest. I need to be there for DH. He's been very supportive of me and he will get his award for 20 years of service to his company at this party. I want to be there for him.
That's tomorrow night. The rest of the weekend? Possibly do a little bit of Christmas shopping. Not going to go crazy. None of us can afford it this year. There were a few flurries of snow here in Houston, Texas today. Enough to get us all in the spirit of the season. Even though there wasn't enough in our area to stick. It melted either before or by the time it hit the ground in our area.
So that's our plans. Hope you have a great weekend as well.

Michelle..sounds like you are going to be busy busy busy too.. But you have some fun stuff sprinkled in there, so thats great! I am sooo happy for you finding and fitting into that shirt! I so remember that feeling when I really started to go down in size. I was amazed and tickeled to death over it. As i was when i went to buy my last pants.. went in "knowing I needed a size 12 and ended up a 10.. I was like... NO WAY! lol.
Keep up the good work! Have a lovely weekend.
