Well, we made it through the first round of storms last night, but are expecting more tonight. Miss Eliza is fine, as long as you let her sleep beside you, which means one of us sleeping on the couch, because if we let her in the bed, she just pants and shakes the whole bed the entire time! smh So GLAD tomorrow is Friday, because this has been a LOOOONNGG week! lol

Work was another busy busy day yesterday and I hit the ground running this morning to take care of things I didn't do yesterday. And lo and behold, more emails and stuffs. Oh well..stayin' busy.
Still feeling pretty good, despite being a little sore now that I'm moving around more and doing core exercises. As long as I'm sitting, it's not sooooo bad.
Anywho...back to work for me. Lookin' forward to the weekend!
Hope everyone has a great day.
So glad to hear you are still feeling pretty good! The weekend is almost here!!!

Also placed an online order for pickup at Target that I did on the way home. It was so foggy when I left that I could only see one car length ahead of me. Torrential rain when I got to my destination and sunshine and dry roads when I got home. Gheez... the temp at 8 am was 40 degrees it's now 72 and heating up to 80 today. Thunderstorms tonight. My daffodils and tulips are loving the warm up. The peony pushes have pushed up to about 8 inches and the Lily of the Valley are about the same. I love the spring when everything is new again!
When we were heading out today running errands, we enjoyed looking at the spring flowers and budding trees!

Woke up to some serious fog. We couldn’t see the water because it was so thick! And the ferry had to blow its horn because of it. I love that sound but always pray for their safety too.
Just sent Steve to town by himself.I overdid things somehow yesterday doing almost nothing and was in pain again. So figured I’d better take it easy today. Hopefully he can get the cram that actually works too. The company made it non prescription and you can get it over the counter but it’s $20 per tube and we both use it. Just isn’t right that they’d rather make more money than continue to keep it as a prescription. Grrr!
Anyway I’m going to carefully do a couple of chores today and hoping I can start on the challenges.
Have an awesome day everyone!!!
That's so frustrating that drug companies are making so many drugs over the counter and no longer covered by insurance.

It's funny that when we had dogs, they didn't mind storms. We had small dogs (Westie and Carin) and I wonder if that's why.
Could be...they always feel safe cuddled up and don't think they have to protect you? I don't know, but we've had a German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, and 2 Golden Doodles, and all but our sweet Paisley were terrified during storms. smh Plus, Eliza is basically a chicken sh!t over everything. lolemmapaige wrote: ↑Thu Apr 03, 2025 4:36 pmArt_Teacher wrote: ↑Thu Apr 03, 2025 4:24 pmWell, we made it through the first round of storms last night, but are expecting more tonight.

It sure is! They control everything medically nowadays and their only concern is greed. They couldn’t care less about the patients!!!emmapaige wrote: ↑Thu Apr 03, 2025 4:33 pmGinniG wrote: ↑Thu Apr 03, 2025 2:59 pmHi Cherries!

I am getting my roots colored later this afternoon and am going to work on getting my challenge up. Rainy and gloomy out right now but the sun is supposed to come out later. High of 63 so hoping it will be a lot nicer out later today.
Hope you all have a great day.
I've given up coloring my roots and found that I don't have that many grey hairs. I have my mom's hair and even though she lived to 99, she had very few, too.
That is awesome!

Aw, our short hair was terrified of storms. He would start pacing at the scent of a storm brewing.

Taking the kiddos in a bus for swimming lessons everyday for 45 minutes. This teacher is tired. Anything out of routine makes the little people a little crazy.
Hoping to scrap today but not sure it's going to happen.. So many great challenges this month. Wishing everyone a fantastic day.
