It is 32 degrees outside this morning. I know because Brandy, Molly, and me have just been out. Sleeping shorts and a lined flannel shirt do not make good freezing temperature protection but it does wake you up! No sunshine yet but then yesterday was a gray, rainy day so today could follow suit.
Seeing yesterday was such a downer I took the time to satisfy some of my to do items.
I baked the coffee cake I had mentioned in an earlier post in a parchment lined 9 x 13 inch glass pan. I will have to improve my technique of sprinkling the sugar and cinnamon but otherwise it was delicious. In fact I may see an extra pound or two show up on the bathroom scales if I don’t stop emptying the dish.
The second item was to view one of my birthday presents from Les, Anne, and Courtney. Yes, I watched Neil Gaiman’s NEVERWHERE on DVD and loved every minute of it. I now have to send it to Les for viewing as promised.
I started a large load of laundry in the washer and two racks of dishes in the dishwasher last evening before sitting down to do a couple of rows on the afghan. Consequently, I had to empty and put away the dishwasher contents this morning, but there is still a large pile of clothes on the dining room table waiting for my attention.
I spent all day yesterday thinking about going to visit my oldest son but then decided to do the aforementioned things instead. I realize that having his own family brings many extra duties he has to perform so I hesitate interrupting his routine. Maybe next week end I’ll call.
Well it is 10:54 am and all my clocks read 9:54 so I have to get busy ‘springing forward’. Have a great rest of the weekend. Remember to keep warm if you need to, stay healthy, and laugh out loud (you know why).
*looking very sweet*…I’m still hopeing for the recipe for the poly pie:)
Hope you got all those clocks changed. I got up Sunday morning and changed our clocks by remembering Spring Back Fall Ahead. Yep got the whole darn thing back assward. So after Bob got up and had a good laugh at my efforts to be efficient before my first cup of coffe, I moved them all two hours ahead.
Maria, I did the same damn thing—-Do you think it’s dementia or stupidity that is hitting us.. No it is just shortness of concentration! That’s my story and I’m sticking with it!!!
